Justine St. Cyr , LPC

Justine St. Cyr is a licensed professional counselor who uses a warm, client-centered approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, and mood concerns. She prefers straightforward conversations and focuses on creating a space where clients can speak honestly about what they are facing. That start matters when someone is worried about taking the first step into therapy.

With six years of clinical experience in Texas, she has worked with people dealing with depression, attention and concentration struggles, and parenting strain. She also supports those navigating LGBTQ-related questions, postpartum mood changes, and the fallout from abuse or traumatic events. Her background includes helping clients sort through relationship strain and family conflict in practical ways.

Justine integrates evidence-informed tools into sessions. She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness practices are introduced to reduce reactivity and bring focus to the present moment.

She also draws on solution-focused and trauma-focused methods to set clear, short-term goals and to address safety and healing from past hurts. Sessions are geared toward useful skills and small steps that build confidence over time.

Throughout therapy she keeps a calm, nonjudgmental tone and invites clients to set the pace. People who want straightforward help with coping, attention, mood, or identity-related stress may find her approach practical and compassionate.

Approach-focused care delivered online

Justine uses client-centered work to build rapport and understand what matters most to each person. That approach centers the client's goals and preferences and guides what happens in sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and focus challenges.

She also brings in trauma-focused techniques when past hurt affects current functioning. That work aims to stabilize reactions and develop practical coping skills for triggers and intrusive memories. Choosing the right methods is a shared process - she will work together with clients to figure out which approaches fit their goals, needs, and comfort level, and adjust as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues; phone can be a good option when bandwidth or movement is a concern. Live chat and messaging support brief check-ins, ongoing homework, or shorter conversations between sessions. These options help clients fit care into busy lives and maintain consistent contact with licensed professionals.
