About Ronna
Ronna Huckaby is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on helping people facing relationship strain, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, and codependency. She works with adults on challenges like addiction, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, and the fallout of separation or domestic violence. Her style centers on respectful listening and practical steps people can use between sessions.
With 25 years of experience, she brings a steady blend of approaches rather than a single method. Ronna favors cognitive techniques to help people change unhelpful thinking patterns, while also using client-centered and solution-focused ideas to keep work grounded and useful. She treats each person as the expert on their life and partners with them to find workable solutions.
Her background includes presenting trainings and workshops at state and national events, and she has extensive experience with adoption and foster care concerns, blended family issues, and family-of-origin struggles. She also focuses on anger, domestic violence, and the complicated feelings that come with abandonment or commitment problems.
In sessions she aims for clarity and concrete goals, using motivational interviewing when people want to shift habits or address addictions. Internal Family Systems ideas may come into play to help people understand conflicting parts of themselves. The overall aim is progress people can notice in day-to-day life.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. Ronna welcomes the opportunity to listen, clarify goals, and work with people toward meaningful change.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and empathy, giving the person room to talk through what matters most while the therapist reflects and clarifies. This approach helps with relationship strain, low self-esteem, and the emotional weight of life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete strategies to change patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and eating-related issues because it offers practical exercises to try between sessions.
Motivational Interviewing supports people who want to change habits such as substance use or other behaviors by exploring ambivalence and building commitment to small, manageable steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods together over time. That collaborative planning helps keep sessions relevant and focused on what matters to the client.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, whether you need a shorter check-in, want to avoid travel time, or prefer a meeting that fits around work or caregiving. Licensed professionals can use different approaches effectively in remote settings, and the therapist will help shape session length and focus to match everyday routines.
