01About Cindy
Cindy Hannigan is a licensed professional counselor in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship concerns. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma, intimacy and self-esteem struggles, career strain, ADHD, and major life changes. Cindy brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions and centers each conversation on the person's goals and values.
In therapy she focuses on clear tools people can use between sessions. She encourages practical steps for sleep, anger, and coping with chronic pain or illness.
Background and approach
Conversations often include work on communication, boundaries, and rebuilding connection after loss or difficult experiences. Cindy draws on several approaches to match what each person needs. That can mean learning new thinking patterns, noticing emotions without judgement, or tracking how early attachment affects current relationships.
She guides clients through exercises and real-life practice rather than long theory discussions. Her way of working is collaborative. She listens, reflects what she hears, and helps set small, achievable goals.
Over time the aim is to strengthen coping skills and increase day-to-day functioning. Cindy has 12 years of clinical experience as an LPC. She practices in Texas and conducts sessions in English.
Many people find her steady presence helpful when facing transitions or rebuilding after loss.

04Online support
How Cindy’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that align with them. In sessions this looks like setting meaningful goals and practicing steps to live in line with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try alternative behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. It often uses short homework tasks to test new ways of thinking and acting.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Cindy will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan as progress is made so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy makes these methods easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls let people read facial expressions and practice communication in real time. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, skill reminders, and ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats add flexibility and help clients keep momentum while working toward their goals.
