Holly Henderson , LMHC, LPCC

Holly Henderson is a licensed clinician holding LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) and LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) credentials and practices from Florida. She earned a Master of Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Seattle and a Bachelor of Psychology from the University of Florida with a minor in Women’s Studies and Gender Issues. Holly has worked in the field since 2003 across a wide range of settings - inpatient units, mobile crisis teams, triage, community-based and home-based counseling, residential programs, and telehealth - supporting children, adolescents, adults, and families.

Her clinical interests include working with trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, grief, parenting concerns, and identity issues such as attachment and abandonment. She brings a strengths-based, client-centered stance to her work, offering respect, encouragement, and hope while collaborating with each person to clarify values and goals. Her therapeutic toolbox includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused CBT, knowledge of family systems and intergenerational trauma, communication skills training, and mindfulness techniques, and she also values the humanizing role that well-timed humor can play in the healing process.

Holly describes therapy as a team effort aimed at helping people uncover who they truly are and who they can become once the intensity of depression, anxiety, and trauma has been addressed. She provides counseling by text, chat, video, and phone, offers live sessions on weekend mornings until 12pm Eastern, and maintains messaging availability at any time.

Approaches for Online Care and Therapeutic Fit

Holly uses client-centered therapy, which prioritizes the client's perspective and builds a collaborative, empathic relationship to support self-discovery and personal growth. This approach is useful for people working through identity questions, life transitions, and relationship concerns.

She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and panic. CBT includes skills-based exercises that clients can practice between sessions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is part of her work with couples and relational issues, focusing on understanding and reshaping emotional responses to improve connection and communication. EFT can help partners address patterns that contribute to conflict, intimacy concerns, and attachment wounds.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Holly works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts methods over time so therapy fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy with Holly is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which allows for flexible scheduling and easier access from different locations. These options make it simpler to maintain continuity of care and to integrate therapeutic work into a busy life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor the process to each client's circumstances.
