About Thenessa
Thenessa Palmer is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with 14 years of experience. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, anger, and self-esteem difficulties. She also focuses on social anxiety and phobia among other life challenges.
She aims to make sessions straightforward and practical. She asks questions, listens to what matters most, and helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck. Conversations tend to include steps people can try between sessions to see what helps in daily life.
Her work often centers on communication skills and managing intense emotions. She helps people handle conflict, work through divorce and separation issues, and address guilt, shame, or impulsive behavior. For those feeling isolated, she offers ways to build safer interactions and reduce avoidance.
Thenessa also supports people facing mood shifts, panic attacks, pregnancy and childbirth transitions, and midlife questions about purpose and direction. She addresses self-love and forgiveness as practical parts of change rather than abstract goals.
Her practice uses what is effective from evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide the sessions. People start with a straightforward intake, set clear goals, and review progress as they go. To begin, clients select the See online therapy options button, complete a brief matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
