About Felicia
Felicia Bessman is a licensed professional counselor in Texas who helps parents and individuals navigate stress, anxiety, relationship strains, parenting challenges, and grief. She writes and listens with respect and sensitivity so people feel heard from the first session. Her style is straightforward and compassionate to make beginning therapy less intimidating.
With ten years of counseling experience, she has worked with people facing depression, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, anger, and low self-esteem.
Background and approach
She also supports those dealing with career changes, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and the stress of caregiving. Blended family issues and commitment worries are additional areas she addresses. Felicia adapts how she talks and plans care to fit each person’s needs.
She uses approaches that focus on the person’s perspective, practical problem solving, and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior. Sessions aim to name immediate goals and build steps that are realistic for daily life. Conversations can include coaching-style direction when helpful, and she works to make progress measurable and clear.
People often leave sessions with specific ideas to try between meetings. The pace and focus shift as needs change so therapy stays relevant. She offers sessions in English and provides several online formats to match different schedules.
Starting is simple: complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session that fits your routine.

How therapy approaches adapt to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist follows your lead, reflects your concerns, and helps you find your own solutions; this approach is useful when you need a supportive space to sort through feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, targets how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings interact. It breaks problems into manageable parts and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and parenting stress.
Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on goals and small steps that move you forward. Sessions often identify immediate changes to try, making it good for parents who want quick, actionable ideas.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, hear your preferences, and adjust methods based on your needs and goals. Together you’ll pick what feels most useful and change course if something isn’t working.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video sessions are helpful for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around parenting responsibilities and work commitments.
