About Wendy

Wendy Key is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 12 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, stress, addiction, and relationship or family concerns. She creates a respectful, faith-centered environment that honors each person's values and beliefs.

Wendy uses practical strategies to help people reduce symptoms and build skills for daily life. She often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that get in the way. She also integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients make room for difficult feelings while acting on meaningful values.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Wendy listens first, then helps set clear, manageable steps clients can try between sessions. She emphasizes communication skills, coping tools, and building self-esteem so progress is steady and tangible.

Her work includes support for grief, trauma and abuse recovery, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping concerns, parenting stress, and career or life transitions. She also offers guidance around chronic illness, caregiving stress, body image, ADHD challenges, and codependency.

Wendy provides phone, video, live chat, and text-based messaging sessions. She helps people clarify goals and choose approaches that fit their lives and schedules. This practical focus aims to help people feel more capable and move forward with purpose.

Approaches that guide online care

Wendy often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which teaches ways to accept difficult feelings while choosing actions that match personal values.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Wendy will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then recommend techniques that fit their situation. Together they check what works and adjust the plan as needed so therapy stays focused and relevant.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people send quick updates, ask questions between sessions, or engage in therapy without being on camera. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life while keeping the work consistent and goal-driven.
