About Demetrica
Demetrica Dement is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 14 years of experience helping people sort through tough moments.

Dement centers sessions on the person in front of her. She treats each client as the expert on their own story.
Background and approach
Conversations are practical and straightforward. The goal is to find small, useful changes that add up over time. Her style blends client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy.
That mix lets her address unhelpful thinking, manage strong emotions, and build skills for daily life. Sessions can include talking, behavior-focused exercises, and simple homework between meetings. She has worked across a range of concerns related to trauma, anger, eating struggles, and LGBT matters.
She also helps people facing abandonment wounds, midlife questions, and seasonal mood shifts. Dement draws on 14 years of clinical experience to tailor approaches to each person’s needs. People who reach out can expect a calm, direct approach.
She focuses on practical steps and clearer communication. Parents looking for support around parenting stress or relationship impacts will find concrete strategies to try at home.

How her approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and clarifies goals for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical tools to challenge them. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication to manage intense feelings and conflict.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will help identify which methods fit a client's goals and preferences. Together they will adjust methods over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video calls let people see facial cues and work through exercises, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or when writing helps organize thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and varied routines.
