About Annette

Annette OBryant is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar concerns, ADHD, and relationship and family problems. She also supports people coping with life changes, parenting challenges, grief, addictions, and issues around self-esteem and anger.

Annette uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people manage symptoms and daily demands. Sessions focus on improving communication, building coping skills, and addressing patterns that keep problems repeating. She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to guide that work.

When trauma is part of the picture, EMDR and mindfulness practices are options Annette may introduce to help process memories and reduce distress. Client-Centered Therapy is also part of her approach, placing the client's goals at the center of each session. She encourages direct, steady progress rather than quick fixes.

People in blended households often face loyalty conflicts, shifting routines, and co-parenting tensions. Annette helps individuals sort through those stresses and figure out practical next steps. She also addresses caregiver strain, midlife transitions, and isolation that can grow out of family role changes.

Her work is straightforward and focused on real-life solutions. To begin, prospective clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to set goals and plan next steps.

Approaches used in online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's goals and experience, giving space to set priorities and pace the work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, mood, and stress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured method for addressing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional impact.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods fit the person's needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative decision can change as goals evolve over time.

Confirm current session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten a check-in when time is limited, avoid travel, or choose a session type that needs less bandwidth. Licensed professionals and therapists often use these practical benefits to help people continue steady work on issues such as blended family stress, parenting strain, trauma processing, and anxiety without rearranging their whole schedule.
