Dr. & Mrs. Wendy Durant, LPC

Dr. & Mrs. Wendy Durant is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with 19 years of clinical experience. She combines counseling and life-coaching perspectives to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. Her manner is warm and encouraging, and she aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space for people to talk through difficult issues.

She supports people dealing with trauma, grief, parenting strain, career challenges, and intimacy-related concerns. Her work also includes help for ADHD, anger, body image, and issues connected to gender and sexual identity. She mentions additional focus areas such as BDSM and kink culture and HIV/AIDS related concerns.

Her approach blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused methods. Mindfulness practices are used alongside holistic ideas to address behavior patterns and coping skills. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps people can try between meetings.

Wendy describes her counseling style as sensitive and compassionate, avoiding stigmatizing labels. She tailors conversation and plans to each person’s needs, aiming to empower clients with strategies and skills. The emphasis is on collaboration and on building tools to handle everyday stressors.

People who want a supportive, goal-oriented process may find her style helpful. She invites prospective clients to complete a short questionnaire to begin matching and to schedule according to availability.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathetic relationship and following the client’s priorities. Online sessions using this approach let people speak through what matters most and shape goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors with clear strategies and exercises. In remote sessions, CBT often uses worksheets, behavior tracking, and practice tasks to change unhelpful patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) aims to help people understand and shift emotional responses in relationships and attachment. When used online, EFT supports noticing feelings, identifying patterns, and trying new ways of connecting or responding.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit the client’s goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can change over time as people try different tools and notice what helps most.

The practical upside of online work is fitting sessions into real life. Ask about current session options before booking to confirm what formats are available. Remote care can make it easier to schedule around work, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people use techniques in their everyday setting soon after discussing them.
