About Torie

Torie Ceynowa is a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Texas with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges that affect focus and attention. She presents therapy as a collaborative process and emphasizes each person’s existing strengths.

Torie aims to support clients who are ready to make changes but feel uncertain about where to start. Her style is straightforward and respectful. She listens first and follows the client’s lead to set goals and pace.

Background and approach

In sessions she uses clear tools and practical steps that match a person’s daily life. That can mean skills for managing anxiety, ways to handle anger, or strategies to improve concentration. Torie draws from client-centered work to meet people where they are.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. For trauma-related concerns she applies trauma-focused techniques and incorporates mindfulness practices to help calm the body and mind. She has supported people through grief, divorce and separation, parenting struggles, and relationship stress.

Torie also addresses women’s issues and the effects of trauma and abuse. Her approach is adaptable, aiming to find what actually helps for each person’s situation. Sessions are offered in English and provided through online formats.

Torie describes therapy as a team effort and helps clients try practical steps between meetings. Many people begin by taking a small first step and scheduling an initial match and session.

Approaches and online care that fit daily life

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and building on their strengths. It helps when someone needs a respectful, nonjudgmental space to sort out feelings and decide what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches simple steps to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and habits that interfere with daily routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Torie will talk with a client about goals and preferences and help choose methods that feel practical and doable. That process is collaborative - she adjusts methods based on what helps between sessions and what fits a person’s life.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people have face-to-face conversations from home. Phone, live chat, and text-based messaging provide alternatives when schedules or travel make live video hard. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing family, work, and other responsibilities.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
