Felicia Bessman

Felicia Bessman, LPC, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, anger, or big life changes. She talks plainly and listens closely so clients can name what feels hardest. She aims to make the first step feel manageable for someone who is worried or unsure.

Felicia draws on ten years of counseling experience in Texas. She works with people facing relationship tensions, family conflict, grief, and challenges tied to parenting, caregiving, or blended family life. She also supports those dealing with trauma, eating concerns, bipolar mood shifts, ADHD, self-esteem problems, and career stress.

Her approach is practical and collaborative. Sessions focus on what a person most wants to change and on small, doable steps they can try between meetings. She adapts the conversation and the plan to each person’s situation rather than using a single method for everyone.

Felicia uses techniques from client-centered therapy to keep the conversation grounded in the client's experience. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and solution-focused methods to set clear goals and track progress. These methods are blended to suit each client's goals.

She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in the work. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions according to availability. The subscription model for sessions can be canceled at any time.

How these approaches look in online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says. The therapist follows the client’s lead and emphasizes respect and understanding to help people feel heard and clearer about what matters most.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses practical exercises and simple experiments to test different ways of thinking and acting, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and stress.

Solution-focused therapy zeroes in on small, achievable goals. Sessions often set one or two steps to try before the next meeting so progress becomes visible and manageable.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. This is a team effort where plans are adjusted as progress and priorities become clearer.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins during a lunch break or between other responsibilities. It can also allow a shorter phone check-in if bandwidth or scheduling is limited. Ask about session length and scheduling when you start so the plan fits your daily life.
