About Debra
Debra Arseneaux is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with 21 years of experience. She works with adults on common concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, addictions, and career or life changes. She also addresses focused issues like attachment and abandonment, body image, and first responder stress.
Before moving into executive coaching and private practice ownership, she spent years serving a wide range of people and clinical presentations. That background shaped a practical approach to therapy and coaching that blends problem-solving with skill building. Sessions tend to be structured and goal-oriented while remaining flexible when new difficulties appear.
Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches. Those methods are used to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice different responses, and develop daily skills for coping with strong emotions and difficult situations.
She describes her practice as brief therapy focused but willing to extend treatment as needed. That means many people work on concrete goals and tools first, then shift the plan if deeper issues surface. Coaching and therapy may be combined depending on what a person wants to accomplish.
Debra prefers straightforward work: identifying habits that get in the way, trying specific strategies, and tracking progress. She accepts clients in Texas and international clients who can work in English. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step are used to set the first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Debra commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts and habits. CBT focuses on practical steps - tracking thoughts, trying alternative responses, and practicing new behaviors to reduce distress.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps people clarify values and accept difficult feelings while taking actions that matter to them. Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and communication, and it can help with intimacy and trust issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Debra works collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. That can mean combining CBT skill practice, ACT value-based work, and attachment-focused conversations over time.
