About Holly
Holly Henderson combines a client-centered approach with practical tools to help people feel steadier and more like themselves. She is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) who draws on nearly two decades of experience. Her work focuses on depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, parenting stress, and issues related to identity and self-worth.
Holly offers straightforward, compassionate care that centers the person in front of her. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build new habits.
Background and approach
She brings in Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when relationships and attachment are central concerns. Mindfulness practices are used to calm racing thoughts and increase emotional awareness. Her background includes work in inpatient settings, mobile crisis, community counseling, home-based services, residential programs, and telehealth.
That variety has shaped a flexible style that adapts to different life situations and ages. Holly has 19 years of clinical experience and holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology. In sessions she aims to create a respectful, strengths-based space where people can name what’s hard and try practical steps.
She expects collaboration and uses humor when it helps. Practical skills, clearer communication, and steady emotional regulation are common goals in her work. Holly provides care from Florida and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging.
Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and she conducts therapy in English only.
Approaches you can use in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on treating people with acceptance and respect while centering their goals. It helps when someone needs a nonjudgmental space to sort out identity, self-esteem, or life direction.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical ways to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood regulation by giving tools to manage symptoms between sessions.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape close relationships and attachment patterns. It can help people and partners improve communication, reduce reactivity, and build more supported emotional bonds.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Holly will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts tools and pacing so therapy fits the person rather than forcing a single method.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful when nonverbal cues and face-to-face conversation matter. Phone calls can work well when bandwidth is low or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging let people share thoughts between sessions and fit therapy into busy days. Those options increase flexibility and make it easier to maintain regular contact with a licensed professional.
