About Jenny
Jenny Henson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, grief, and addiction concerns. She speaks plainly and listens without judgment, aiming to make sessions feel straightforward and useful for busy parents. Her style is down-to-earth and practical, meant to fit into real life rather than add more worry.
Jenny draws on about 10 years of professional experience and more than a decade working with children and adults in school settings.
Background and approach
She has run a independent practice for several years and has supported people through common struggles like depression, burnout, trauma, and relationship strains. She believes people can regain a sense of control over their thinking and responses. In sessions she uses Client-Centered approaches to follow the person’s pace and priorities.
She often pairs that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and develop different ways of coping. For trauma-related concerns she may use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as one option among others. Parents often seek her help when parenting feels overwhelming, when communication breaks down at home, or when stress and anxiety make everyday tasks harder.
Jenny also addresses issues such as attachment concerns, caregiver stress, and substance use in the context of someone’s daily life. Her approach is collaborative and practical. She will work with each person to set clear goals and try techniques that fit their schedule and values.
If another provider would be a better match, she will help refer to someone more appropriate.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s priorities. Online sessions using this style let the therapist respond to what matters most in the moment and adjust the pace to the client’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down thoughts and behaviors into concrete steps and tools. Remotely this can mean homework between sessions, short skill practices during video calls, and clear plans to try at home.Jenny aims to collaborate on which approaches fit best. She will talk through goals and preferences, try methods that seem useful, and change course when something is not working. Finding the right combination is treated as a shared process rather than a one-time decision.
Online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and guided exercises, phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging works well for ongoing reflection or quick touch-ins between sessions. These options give flexibility for parents who need to fit therapy into busy days.
