About Wenona
Wenona Wray is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. She also supports those dealing with trauma, addictions, grief, sleep and eating issues, and career or parenting concerns. She writes plainly and aims to help people find practical ways forward.
Wenona brings 18 years of counseling experience, including time as a non-commissioned officer in the United States Air Force. That background shaped a straightforward, team-based approach to working through problems.
How Wenona works
She prioritizes calm listening and clear steps people can try between sessions. Her work draws on several evidence-based approaches, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Sessions often include skill building, emotion regulation, and strategies to shift unhelpful thinking.
Mindfulness and emotionally-focused techniques are used when helpful. Wenona focuses on helping people develop coping tools they can use in daily life. She talks through concrete options, practices skills with clients, and helps set realistic goals.
The aim is to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning. People who want to try a collaborative process may find her style useful. She emphasizes partnership and practical steps rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.
Wenona works with clients to tailor the approach to each person’s goals and circumstances.

Online support options
Online approaches that focus on skills and values
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when emotions are strong. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with big life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and actions affect mood and behavior, and teaches practical strategies to change patterns that cause distress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation and coping skills for intense feelings and relationship difficulties.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which methods fit best based on current goals and preferences. That collaborative step can include trying techniques from more than one approach and adjusting as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video allows face-to-face interaction for skills practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can work well when a quieter setting is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, tracking progress, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
