About Meredith
Meredith Bauer, LCSW, is licensed in Texas and has 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, grief, depression, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, parenting, self-esteem, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She describes her approach as solution-focused and works with clients on present-day strategies to manage life more effectively.
Bauer draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and respond to each person's concerns. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and change patterns that keep problems active. Solution-Focused Therapy guides short-term goal setting and practical steps for improvement.
Much of her background is in healthcare settings. She has experience helping people and families affected by chronic and life-limiting illness, hospice and end-of-life issues, caregiver stress, and cancer-related challenges. She also has experience with aging and geriatric matters and with autism and Asperger Syndrome.
Her work addresses practical problems such as communication difficulties, blended family issues, divorce and separation, control issues, guilt and shame, and isolation. She also supports people dealing with chronic pain, mood disorders, obsessions and compulsions, and sleep disruption. Sessions emphasize clear goals and manageable steps.
Bauer frames therapy as a joint effort. She aims to help people find workable solutions in the here and now. Clients are encouraged to set measurable goals and use specific strategies between sessions.
She practices in Texas and conducts therapy in English. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Prospective clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.

How her methods translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's concerns. It helps when someone needs time to talk through feelings and priorities and to feel heard by a therapist who reflects their experience.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses exercises and homework to change patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and intrusive thoughts.
Solution-Focused Therapy centers on practical steps and short-term goals. It suits people who want concrete strategies and quick progress on specific problems.
Meredith treats the choice of approach as a collaborative decision. She will work with a client to identify goals and try approaches that fit their needs and preferences. Adjustments are made as those goals change over time.
Confirm current session formats before booking. The practical benefits of online sessions include easier scheduling around work or caregiving, fewer travel demands, and the ability to use brief check-ins when needed. These aspects can make it simpler to keep a therapy plan consistent with daily life.
