Trauma Therapists Licensed in Texas
This page is for people in Texas looking for online therapists who specialize in trauma. Use it to compare clinicians by their approaches to trauma care, training or certifications in trauma-focused therapies, experience with specific trauma types, and whether they offer individual, group, or family work. A Texas license covers the whole state, so your city is not a barrier to working with any therapist listed here. Read profiles to find therapists whose specialties, therapeutic styles, and communication preferences match what you need, and look for those who mention relevant therapies like EMDR, TF-CBT, or somatic approaches if those matter to you.

About trauma therapy in Texas
Everyone listed on this page holds a license to practice in Texas and works online. That matters more than it sounds: a license is issued by the state, not by a city, so a therapist is available to anyone in Texas regardless of how far away they are. Someone outside a major metro can work with a therapist whose books would otherwise be out of reach.
1,768 therapists match this page, all of whom name trauma among the areas they work with. Fifteen are shown above. The list changes between pages, so it is worth looking at more than one if none of these feels like a fit.
What to compare
- Credential. LPC, LCSW and LMFT are different training routes into licensed therapy work. None outranks the others; they shape emphasis rather than quality.
- Years in practice. Shown for every therapist here. More experience is not automatically better, but it is a fair proxy for how much of a given problem someone has seen.
- What else they work with. A therapist whose other focus areas overlap with your situation is usually a better starting point than one whose listed areas stop at the single thing you searched for.
- Approach. CBT, psychodynamic, solution-focused and the rest describe how sessions tend to run. If you have tried therapy before and it did not suit you, changing approach is often more useful than changing therapist.
- Language. Shown where a therapist offers sessions in more than English.
How online sessions work
Sessions run by video or by messaging, arranged through our partner platform rather than booked directly with the therapist. There is no travel and no waiting room, which for most people is the difference between starting and not starting. Pricing is set by the platform and shown before you commit.
Common questions
How do trauma-focused therapies differ and which should I look for?
Trauma-focused therapies vary by method and goals. EMDR focuses on processing traumatic memories. Trauma-focused CBT teaches coping skills and reframes beliefs. Somatic therapies work with body sensations tied to trauma. Look for therapists who list the specific method you want and explain how they adapt it to your needs. Ask about session structure and goals when you contact them.
Can I work with a therapist for childhood trauma and PTSD symptoms online across Texas?
Yes. Therapists licensed in Texas can work with clients anywhere in the state. When comparing profiles, check for experience with childhood trauma, complex trauma, or PTSD specifically. Look for descriptions of assessment, treatment planning, and whether the clinician notes experience treating long-term or developmental trauma, as those often require different pacing and safety planning.
What should I ask a trauma therapist before starting sessions online?
Ask about their training in trauma-specific models, how they handle crisis or safety concerns remotely, and what a typical treatment plan looks like. Also ask how they pace exposure or memory work, whether they integrate skills like grounding and emotion regulation, and how they measure progress. These questions help you find a therapist whose approach fits your comfort level.
