About &
Dr. & Mrs. Wendy Durant is a licensed professional counselor with 19 years of clinical experience.
She is based in Louisiana and holds LPC credentials for Texas and Louisiana. Wendy works with people facing anxiety, stress, relationship strain, trauma, and other life challenges. Her background blends mental health counseling with coaching and natural medicine studies.
She uses straightforward techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered work, and she brings solution-focused plans to practical problems.
Background and approach
She also incorporates mindfulness and holistic ideas when they fit a person's goals. Sessions are conversational and goal-minded. Wendy aims to be warm and encouraging while avoiding stigmatizing labels.
She helps people break down problems into manageable steps and practices useful skills between sessions. She has supported clients with mood difficulties, impulsivity and ADHD concerns, parenting and career pressures, sexual and intimacy issues, grief, and coping after disasters. Her experience also extends to work on body image, gender concerns, and first responder stress.
Wendy frames therapy as a partnership. She listens first, then adapts a plan that fits each person's situation. That might include short-term strategies, longer work on patterns, or coaching-style supports to reach life goals.
People looking for practical tools and steady support often find this style helpful. The focus is on clear steps, real-world skills, and steady progress toward the changes someone wants to make.
Approach-Based Online Therapy and Practical Tools
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience and priorities, giving people space to talk while the therapist reflects and helps clarify what matters most. This approach is useful for people who want to be heard and to set their own goals.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and action and teaches step-by-step strategies to change them. It is often used for anxiety, stress, mood concerns, and habits that get in the way of daily life.
Wendy will work with each person to find the best mix of methods. Together they will consider goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped in the past. The therapist treats this as a collaborative process and adjusts the plan based on what is working.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people use body language and more conversation time, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be useful for short check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and travel while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.
