About Wynona

Wynona Russ is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana who focuses on helping people navigate complex emotional challenges.

Background and approach

With five years of clinical experience, she works with clients facing depression, anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, grief, trauma and abuse, and a range of mood and stress-related concerns including ADHD. Her approach emphasizes cultural responsiveness and meeting each person where they are in their life story.

Wynona blends evidence-based methods with a compassionate, client-centered stance to support growth and healing. She helps clients build self-compassion, strengthen communication skills, and clarify life purpose while addressing difficulties such as panic, impulsivity, eating and sleeping disruptions, and compassion fatigue.

Her practice also attends to issues like codependency, control problems, infidelity, and multicultural concerns, offering tailored strategies informed by CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma-focused work. Clients can expect collaborative care that honors individual strengths and values while promoting practical coping skills and emotional resilience.

Wynona aims to foster a therapeutic space where people can process past wounds, practice new responses, and move toward clearer goals for wellbeing and interpersonal connection.

Therapeutic Approaches and How They Work Online

Wynona commonly draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and then learning practical skills to shift those patterns; it is often helpful for anxiety, depression, panic, and impulsivity. Trauma-focused therapy involves approaches that help people process traumatic memories and their effects, promoting healing from abuse, grief, or long-standing wounds.

Choosing the right method is part of the therapeutic journey and Wynona approaches that choice collaboratively. She works with clients to clarify goals, preferences, and the issues that feel most urgent, then recommends strategies or combines approaches so the plan fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent care from different locations. These options provide scheduling flexibility and let clients continue work between sessions through chat or messaging when that supports their progress. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, trauma-focused interventions, and client-centered dialogue to these formats to maintain continuity and practical skill-building in day-to-day life.
