Meredith Bauer, LCSW - Therapist in Texas

About Meredith

Meredith Bauer is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience. She works with parents and families on stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, depression, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, parenting concerns, self-esteem, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Meredith writes simply and directly in sessions and focuses on practical steps parents can try between meetings.

Her approach is collaborative. She treats therapy as a joint effort where client and therapist set clear goals.

Background and approach

Meredith favors solution-focused techniques to address immediate problems while also drawing on client-centered conversation and cognitive behavioral tools when helpful. Much of her work has been in healthcare settings helping families manage crises and chronic illness. That background informs how she supports caregiving stress, hospice and end-of-life issues, chronic pain and illness, and communication challenges that come with medical concerns.

She also has experience with aging and geriatric issues as well as autism and blended family dynamics. In sessions Meredith uses straightforward, goal-oriented plans. She helps people identify small changes that add up.

Parents often leave with specific strategies for daily routines, sleep, reacting to meltdowns, or managing guilt and grief. Meredith practices in Texas and holds LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She sees clients in English and offers meetings by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session according to availability.

How Meredith’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy means sessions focus on the person's needs and perspectives. The therapist listens closely and helps clients find their own solutions, useful for building trust and addressing relationship or self-esteem concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. It includes simple exercises and practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and coping with life changes.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, concrete changes that show quick results. This approach is practical for parents who need clear steps to handle daily routines, behavior issues, or caregiving stress.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they try methods and adjust the plan as needed so it fits real life.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Meredith offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to match different needs and comfort levels. These options help parents and family members connect from home, coordinate around medical care, and follow through on strategies between meetings.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
