Dr. Zarinah Foggle, LPC

Dr. Zarinah Foggle is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She focuses on practical steps clients can take to feel steadier and more in control. She aims to make the first contact easier for someone worried about change or overwhelmed by daily demands.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who want to make changes but feel stuck. Trauma-Focused and Narrative approaches are used when past harm affects current life.

Sessions prioritize clear goals and small, manageable steps. Conversations often include skill practice, check-ins about progress, and adjustments when something isn’t working. The tone is direct but compassionate, focusing on what matters to the client day to day.

With 11 years of experience and licensure in Texas, Zarinah blends practical techniques with attention to personal values and life context. She pays attention to attachment, communication patterns, and caregiver stress where relevant. People looking to address burnout, career strain, or intimacy challenges will find focused, goal-oriented support.

Therapy can include shorter check-ins or deeper work on past trauma, depending on need. The aim is steady progress toward clearer thinking, healthier relationships, and better coping with life’s transitions.

How her approaches translate to online care

Dr. Foggle commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy in online sessions. CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with practical alternatives, which works well through exercises and homework that can be reviewed during video or chat. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing past harm and building coping tools, allowing steady pacing and focused interventions in longer sessions.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify goals and find motivation for change. Together the therapist and client choose which approach fits best, adjusting methods as progress is made. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to a person's needs, goals, and preferences rather than prescribing a single route up front.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work face to face and use screen-shared worksheets. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or movement is an issue. Live chat or messaging suits brief check-ins, quick skill practice, or ongoing support between longer appointments. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to try different ways of working until the best fit is found.
