About Wendy
Wendy Key is a licensed professional counselor in Texas with 12 years of experience supporting people through hard life moments. She works with individuals facing depression, anxiety, stress, addiction, and grief. Her approach respects clients' values and aims to help them move forward in practical ways.
Wendy uses a blend of approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on Gottman Method ideas for relationship patterns, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to build values-based action, and cognitive and emotion-focused techniques for thinking and feeling work.
Background and approach
Therapy sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings. She offers a faith-informed, conservative environment for clients who want their spiritual beliefs included in care. That can mean talking about values, life purpose, or how faith shapes choices.
The goal is to make treatment feel relevant to each person's worldview. Wendy helps people work on concrete skills like communication, coping with change, managing anger, and improving sleep or eating habits. She also supports recovery from substance problems and attention-related challenges like ADHD.
Sessions aim to give tools that make daily life easier. Clients can expect straightforward talk, practical strategies, and a steady focus on goals. Wendy encourages small experiments that build momentum.
She works with people who want to understand themselves better and take realistic steps toward feeling more resilient and connected.

Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Wendy often uses the Gottman Method to look at how partners interact and to teach clearer communication patterns; elements from this work can help people recognize repeated dynamics and practice new habits. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. Client-centered techniques are part of her work too, centering the client's experience and pacing the process according to their needs.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Wendy works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, history, and comfort level. She adapts as progress is made, mixing approaches when that seems useful so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skill practice and body language work. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let clients send updates, ask quick questions, or have shorter check-ins between sessions. These options help people fit care into busy days and keep continuity when travel or schedule changes happen.
