About Norma
Norma Clark is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 15 years of experience. She has provided individual and group therapy in crisis and trauma settings and works with adults on a broad range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance use, and relationship stress.
Her practice includes work on grief, parenting strains, family conflict, and issues related to LGBT identity. She has experience with self-esteem, anger, sleep problems, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Norma also addresses longer-term themes such as family of origin issues, abandonment, and coping after separation or divorce.
Norma uses practical coping skills and therapeutic conversation to help people manage emotions and behavior that get in the way of daily life. She draws on client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral tools to identify patterns, and on mindfulness and dialectical strategies to build distress tolerance and emotion regulation.
She has applied creative interventions in past work, including art, music, movement, and writing, when those methods fit a person’s needs. Norma also uses motivational interviewing to support change around substance use and other behaviors.
Sessions aim to find the root of a problem while developing usable skills for calmer days and steadier routines. Norma listens without judgment and focuses on concrete steps clients can take to stabilize mood and shift unhelpful patterns.
How sessions work
How Norma Uses CBT, DBT, and Client-Centered Work Online
Norma often combines client-centered conversation with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) tools. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and helps people try small experiments to change patterns that increase anxiety, depression, or conflict.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) strategies for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT teaches step-by-step skills for managing strong emotions, reducing impulsive reactions, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.
Client-centered work in her practice means the conversation is guided by the person in front of her. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people identify priorities and practical next steps rather than imposing a fixed plan.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Norma will explore goals, preferences, and daily life constraints and then recommend techniques to try. The plan may shift as needs change, and she invites collaboration on what feels most helpful.
