01About Brenda
Brenda Drage-Chan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with thirteen years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel stuck by listening carefully and building a respectful, direct working relationship. Brenda keeps sessions practical and understandable so people can take small, useful steps forward.
She commonly supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, stress, low self-esteem, and trouble finding motivation. She also helps with relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, and issues related to career or life transitions.
Background and approach
Her work includes attention to caregiver stress, first responder and veteran issues, immigration-related adjustment, and end-of-life or hospice concerns. Brenda uses straightforward methods drawn from client-centered care, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, solution-focused work, and trauma-focused approaches. In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thinking, try new coping skills, practice grounding and breathing, and set short-term goals that fit their daily life.
She balances listening with clear guidance so people leave with concrete ideas to try. Brenda welcomes questions about how therapy might fit into a busy schedule. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make regular contact easier.
People who prefer brief check-ins, longer conversations, or a mix of formats can explore what works best for them. To begin, she asks people to consider what they most want to change and what would make daily life feel better. That helps shape the first steps in therapy and the goals they work toward together.

04Online support
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered work focuses on understanding a person's experience and building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. It helps people feel heard and notice what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical tools to change them, which can be practiced between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce reactivity and increase calm during stressful moments.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. This is a collaborative process where feedback guides which tools are kept or changed.
Online therapy offers options to fit varied schedules and needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to send brief updates, practice skills between sessions, or hold quick conversations without waiting for a scheduled call. These formats make regular contact more flexible and help people use therapy in ways that suit their daily life.
