Dr. & Mrs. Wendy Durant

Dr. & Mrs. Wendy Durant is a licensed professional counselor working in Louisiana with 19 years of clinical experience. She is an LPC and combines talk therapy with coaching tools to help people move past stuck points. Her manner is warm, encouraging, and direct.

Durant helps people with stress, anxiety, depression, and anger. She also supports those dealing with relationship strain, intimacy challenges, parenting concerns, and career transitions. Additional areas include ADHD, grief, trauma and abuse, body image, and sexual concerns including kink and alternative sex culture.

Her work blends client-centered care with cognitive behavioral strategies and solution-focused tools. She uses mindfulness practices and holistic perspectives when appropriate to help clients build concrete skills. Sessions are aimed at practical change rather than labels.

The therapist adapts each plan to what a person wants to accomplish. Short-term goals and skill-building are common, alongside deeper exploration when needed. She emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and a nonjudgmental stance in sessions.

Durant also brings life coaching and art-informed approaches into counseling when helpful. That may mean homework, behavioral experiments, or creative exercises to support new habits. She invites people to see therapy as a team effort toward clearer coping and better daily functioning.

How her approaches adapt to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what a person says. It helps people feel heard and shapes goals around their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) gives practical exercises and thought-behavior tools to reduce symptoms like anxiety, anger, and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on recognizing and changing interaction patterns in relationships and can help with intimacy and communication problems.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped before to find a fit. It is common to try a mix of strategies and adjust as progress is made.

Practical benefits of online work include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Online sessions can make it simpler to check in during a lunch break, reduce travel time, and keep momentum between appointments.
