Valerie Holcomb , LPC

Valerie Holcomb is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 18 years of experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. She has worked with adults, adolescents, couples, and families in both individual and group settings, addressing concerns such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, PTSD, relationship and parenting difficulties, career stress, OCD, ADHD, and the effects of physical or emotional trauma.

Her clinical background spans inpatient hospitals, inpatient and outpatient substance use disorder treatment facilities, community mental health clinics, schools and school campuses, wilderness challenge camps, and correctional facilities. That variety has shaped a flexible, person-centered practice that adapts to each client’s circumstances and goals. She also brings experience from volunteer work focused on veterans, PTSD awareness, and mental health advocacy with organizations such as NAMI and local behavioral health advisory groups.

Holcomb’s therapeutic style is warm, interactive, and laid back. She emphasizes listening, respect, sensitivity, and compassion while avoiding stigmatizing labels. Her approach integrates cognitive-behavioral techniques, humanistic and client-centered principles, cognitive processing methods, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and rational-emotive strategies to create tailored treatment plans. She aims to build a strong therapeutic alliance and guide clients toward meaningful change and greater independence, meeting each person where they are and helping them discover their strengths.
