Heidi Wendenburg, LPC

Heidi Wendenburg is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress and anxiety. She works with adolescents starting at 12 years and adults up to 65. Her style is straightforward and centered on helping people manage day-to-day struggles so they can feel steadier and more capable.

She has five years of clinical experience. Heidi began in an adult acute psychiatric facility and later worked across residential, intensive outpatient, and partial hospitalization programs. Much of her background is with eating disorder care for both adolescents and adults. She has also worked in substance abuse and addiction programs covering detox through partial hospitalization.

Heidi uses a mix of approaches that match the person she is working with. Therapies she draws from include client-centered therapy, dialectical behavior therapy or DBT, cognitive behavioral therapy or CBT, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or ACT. She adapts techniques to the problem at hand rather than sticking to one single method.

Her clinical experience includes helping people with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem struggles, and substance use concerns. She also has extensive work with eating and food-related issues and a range of related problems such as attachment and body image concerns.

Heidi encourages steady effort and realistic steps. She asks about what’s working and what isn’t, and then helps build skills and strategies for coping, communication, and emotional regulation. If someone wants to begin, she guides them through the first scheduling steps.

How selected therapy approaches can work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and managing life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, keeping the plan practical and focused on daily life.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can use these sessions to teach skills, run exposure tasks, review homework, and practice communication tools so therapy fits into everyday routines.
