About Dora

Dora Williams is an LPC who uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people navigate anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, ADHD-related challenges, and trauma. With nine years of clinical experience across independent practice, medication-assisted treatment clinics, and psychiatric care settings, she emphasizes collaborative goal setting and stepwise progress.

Background and approach

Her background in relationship coaching informs a strengths-focused, solution-oriented stance that centers on what clients want to change and how to get there. Dora draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to tailor interventions to each person’s needs.

She works to empower clients to develop sustainable coping skills, improve communication and decision-making, and process grief or past wounds that impede forward movement. Outside of work she enjoys time with family, travel, and exploring new foods, which she finds replenishes her energy for clinical work in Texas.

Evidence-Based Approaches Delivered Online

CBT is a structured approach that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with clearer, more adaptive thoughts; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related struggles. DBT offers skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for managing intense emotions and improving communication in relationships.

Choosing the right approach is something a client and therapist discover together. Dora emphasizes collaboration when selecting techniques, adjusting plans based on each person’s goals, preferences, and progress so the work feels practical and relevant.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and fit therapy into busy lives. These formats make it easier to attend regularly, practice skills between meetings, and maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, or other commitments.
