About Lucretia
Lucretia Reed is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and parenting challenges. She also supports those coping with grief, anger, life changes, ADHD, and LGBTQ concerns. Her approach is warm and direct, and she aims to build a strong working relationship that moves toward real goals.
Lucretia draws on nearly two decades of counseling experience.
How Lucretia works
She earned her counseling degree from Prairie View A&M University and has worked across diverse settings. Her background includes work with people connected to foster care, transitional housing, and domestic violence services. This range informs a practical, down-to-earth style.
In sessions she emphasizes a genuine, nonjudgmental listening stance while asking clients to do the often-difficult work of change. She uses client-centered techniques to prioritize each person's experience and combines that with cognitive behavioral tools to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness practices and brief solution-focused strategies are also part of her toolkit.
Her style tends to be supportive but accountable. She helps set clear, achievable steps and checks progress along the way. Expect straightforward feedback, problem-solving, and exercises to try between meetings.
Choosing to start therapy is a step Lucretia takes seriously. She invites people to begin with a short matching process and scheduling step, then collaborates on goals and the pace of work.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience. It helps people feel heard, clarifies priorities, and guides the therapist to match support to what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect; it offers practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. That conversation guides whether the focus leans more toward client-centered listening, CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, or short solution-focused steps. This is a collaborative process rather than a fixed prescription.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online care can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to keep momentum between appointments through practical homework and guided exercises that translate well to remote sessions.
