About Lara
Lara Christian is a Licensed Professional Counselor who practices in Texas and has 15 years of experience. She often meets people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or worn down when life does not go as they expected. Many come seeking clarity, direction, and a way forward during stressful seasons and anxiety.
She has worked in settings that include intensive inpatient and outpatient care. That range has shaped how she responds to strong emotions, panic, and mood concerns.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with brain-based techniques such as QEEG brain mapping and neurofeedback, which she uses to inform how she thinks about emotional regulation and habits. Lara takes a collaborative, honest approach. Sessions begin with careful listening so clients feel heard.
From there she and the client identify small, practical steps to build momentum between sessions. She aims to help people develop clarity and resilience rather than dependency on therapy. Lara can integrate a biblical approach when a client requests faith-informed work.
Her focus areas include stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem, depression, and addictions. People also come to address feelings of emptiness, problems with impulsivity, isolation or loneliness, and questions about life purpose. She supports work on panic attacks, social anxiety, and issues common to young adults and women.
The overall goal is clearer direction and sustainable change.
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Many of Laras clients benefit from brain-informed techniques that focus on emotional regulation and habit change. QEEG brain mapping is a tool she references to better understand brain patterns related to mood and anxiety. Neurofeedback is an adjunct she has experience with that aims to support regulation skills through repeated practice. She also emphasizes collaborative, step-based therapy that focuses on listening first and then creating practical, achievable goals. This style is useful for stress, anxiety, panic, sleep problems, and low self-esteem because it pairs insight with everyday actions. Finding the right method is a team effort. Lara works with each person to figure out what fits their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time and can include a biblical approach when a client requests faith-informed work. Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be a shorter or lower-bandwidth option, and live chat or text-based messaging help with brief check-ins and ongoing support. These formats provide flexibility for people juggling work, school, or caregiving while keeping therapy accessible across distances.Questions people ask
