Fanny Gradzikiewicz, LPC

Fanny Gradzikiewicz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 16 years of clinical experience. She offers bilingual therapy in English and Spanish and brings years of practice helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Her background includes work with trauma, grief, parenting challenges, and multicultural concerns.

Fanny uses straightforward conversation to help people sort priorities and set small, doable goals. She blends practical techniques with listening so clients can try new ways of coping. Sessions tend to focus on what feels most urgent and what can be changed step by step.

Her approach includes cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. She also uses client-centered methods to follow each person’s pace, and EMDR when trauma processing is needed. These approaches are used to address anxiety, mood concerns, sleep problems, and relationship struggles.

Fanny has worked in bilingual settings and understands cultural and immigration-related stressors. She supports people dealing with family of origin issues, blended family dynamics, infidelity, and communication problems. She also helps with parenting strain, postpartum depression, and adjustment after separation or loss.

Therapy with Fanny focuses on practical steps and clear goals. She invites clients to discuss what they want to change and works collaboratively to build skills. Her style is direct, compassionate, and goal oriented, aiming to make daily life more manageable.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Fanny commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. That approach works well for stress, sleep problems, mood disorders, and many daily challenges. She also uses client-centered therapy to follow each person's pace and priorities, offering a listening-led style that helps clients set their own goals and feel heard. When past traumatic events are affecting present life, she may use EMDR to help process traumatic memories through guided protocols designed to reduce distress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, culture, and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try first. Plans are adjusted as needs change so the work stays relevant and usable.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow for face-to-face conversation and real-time skill practice. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits a work break. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when writing feels like a better way to process thoughts. These options support flexibility and make it easier to keep consistent progress around a busy schedule.
