About Roy
Roy Sheneman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 30 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family matters, self-esteem, and career questions.

His background spans long-term counseling work with people facing caregiver strain, divorce and separation, workplace issues, and midlife questions.

Approaches used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's perspective and priorities. The therapist listens closely and keeps the conversation grounded in what the client wants to address. This approach helps when someone needs space to clarify their own feelings and choices.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavior changes to see what helps with anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help decide which methods fit a person's goals and preferences, and may combine approaches when useful. This is a collaborative process aimed at practical steps and clearer decision making.
