Heidi Wendenburg, LPC

Heidi Wendenburg is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas. She helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, eating concerns, substance use, and the stress of big life changes. Heidi works with adolescents starting at age 12 and with adults up to age 65. She keeps language direct and practical so worried parents and busy adults can follow along.

Heidi began her career in an adult acute psychiatric facility and moved into residential and intensive outpatient settings. She has worked in partial hospitalization and specialized eating disorder programs for both adolescents and adults. Her background also includes time in substance abuse and addiction programs covering detox through partial hospitalization, plus experience in a group practice setting.

Her clinical interests include eating disorders, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, relationship and family concerns, grief, and ADHD among other areas. Heidi often uses talk therapy alongside client-centered therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy. She describes her overall method as eclectic and tailors sessions to each person rather than using a single approach.

Heidi draws on five years of counseling work and practical, real-world experience in levels of care from acute settings to outpatient programs. She aims to make therapy understandable and manageable, helping people build everyday skills and cope with challenges step by step. If someone feels stuck, she works with them to find small, realistic ways forward.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match personal values; it can help with anxiety, low mood, and struggles with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns; it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to relationship patterns and early bonds, which can be useful for intimacy issues, abandonment concerns, and family-related stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Heidi works collaboratively with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so sessions stay aligned with what helps most.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people attend from locations that better support calm and focus. Many people find online sessions help them practice skills in daily routines and make consistent attendance more practical.
