About Annette

Annette OBryant is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 12 years of clinical experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, and major life transitions. Annette focuses on practical coping skills and clearer communication so daily life feels more manageable.

Her work emphasizes a compassionate, down-to-earth style. She helps people process painful events, sort through feelings of guilt or shame, and rebuild self-worth. Annette also addresses issues such as addiction, anger, depression, and ADHD with a steady, patient presence.

In sessions she pays attention to how relationships and family dynamics affect personal struggles. She helps clients identify patterns, practice new ways of interacting, and set boundaries that reduce stress. Caregivers and people in midlife transitions find support for their specific pressures and role changes.

Annette uses several evidence-informed approaches while tailoring them to each person’s needs. She draws from client-centered methods to create a respectful space, and from mindfulness and cognitive techniques to help manage intense emotions. When trauma is part of the story, she incorporates approaches designed for trauma processing.

Her aim is straightforward: help people regain a sense of control and purpose. She works with individuals who want practical tools, clearer thinking, and steadier emotions. To start, she asks questions about your current struggles and goals so the plan fits your life.

Approaches that translate well to online work

Client-centered therapy centers on the person’s experience and priorities. It means the therapist listens closely, reflects feelings, and helps the client guide the pace of work. This approach helps when people need acceptance and a steady space to sort things out.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It uses clear steps and exercises to change unhelpful thoughts and build new habits, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase moment-to-moment awareness, useful for strong emotions and impulsivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and daily routines to decide which methods fit best. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments around caregiving or work shifts. The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to be sure they match your needs.
