Edith Blake

Edith Blake is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who spends her time helping people work through hard moments. She presents as warm and interactive and aims to offer steady support while people cope with stress, loss, anger, depression, or life transitions. She draws on six years of counseling experience and a history of working in schools and private practice.

Before private practice she worked in school settings as a Licensed Specialist in School Psychology, supporting students with special needs and those in crisis. That background shaped how she talks with people: plain language, practical steps, and a focus on what helps day to day. She has helped people facing trauma, abuse, addictions, anxiety, bipolar mood shifts, ADHD, and parenting challenges.

In sessions she often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of responding. She also uses client-centered ideas to keep the conversation focused on each person's values and goals. Mindfulness and solution-focused methods are part of the toolbox when short-term strategies are useful.

For people who want faith included in sessions, she can integrate Christian perspectives into counseling when requested. She tailors each plan to match what a person says they need and what fits their life. Edith emphasizes steady progress and concrete steps rather than abstract ideas.

Outside work she spends time with her adult children and grandchildren and enjoys being outdoors. She encourages anyone ready to take a next step toward change to use the Start Therapy flow to match and schedule a first session.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, acceptance, and following what matters most to the client. It helps people name their priorities and shape goals that fit their daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger. Trauma-Focused Therapy targets the effects of traumatic experiences with gradual, paced work to reduce distress and build coping skills.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Edith will work together with each person to decide which methods make the most sense for their goals, symptoms, and personal preferences. That may mean trying one method first and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow quicker check-ins when needed, and support use of digital worksheets or home practice between meetings. Many people find the flexibility helps them sustain steady work on stress, anger, trauma recovery, and daily coping without large interruptions to their routines.
