About Cindy
Cindy Hannigan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction. She also supports people facing relationship strains, grief, parenting stresses, and challenges with self-esteem or identity. Cindy uses direct, compassionate care to help people take practical steps forward.
She prefers a collaborative approach in sessions. Cindy listens for patterns in feelings and behavior, then helps people practice small changes that add up.
Background and approach
She often combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy with practical methods from cognitive behavioral approaches and acceptance work to address both emotions and actions. Clients can expect a calm, affirming space where they talk through difficult memories, current conflicts, or overwhelming feelings. Cindy pays attention to how attachment and past losses affect present relationships.
She also works with concerns such as sleep trouble, anger, and career stress in concrete ways, using short exercises and real-world tasks between sessions. With 12 years of experience, Cindy has helped people facing life transitions, chronic health struggles, and complicated grief. She invites people to explore values, strengthen communication skills, and build daily routines that support recovery and growth.
Sessions are tailored to each person’s needs and pace. Cindy focuses on clear goals, steady progress, and skills that can be practiced outside of therapy. Her aim is to help people feel more connected to themselves and others over time.

Online support
Emotion-focused and action-oriented support online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on understanding and shifting strong emotions that drive difficult patterns in relationships and personal life. It helps people notice emotional needs, soften reactive patterns, and build more stable connections with others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical ways to live in line with personal values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. It is useful for anxiety, persistent worry, and making value-aligned changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and sense of safety; it helps people identify attachment patterns and try new ways of relating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cindy collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their situation and goals. She tailors sessions using emotion-focused conversations, skills from ACT, or attachment-based insights depending on what a person needs and prefers.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Sessions can be video calls for deeper conversations, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, or shorter check-ins by live chat or text messaging to maintain momentum between longer appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or health needs while still progressing toward goals.
