Luna & Sol Counseling · Virtual counseling across Texas
Support for the Thoughts, Feelings, and Demands That Have Become Hard to Carry
You might be exhausted by worry, stuck starting everyday tasks, or spending so much energy holding things together that there is little left for you. Therapy can offer a place to feel understood and work out what would actually help.
If you are still keeping up but feel depleted, explore ACT therapy for burnout and high-functioning anxiety.
We offer online Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for clients located in Texas, when virtual care fits their needs. Our home office is in The Woodlands. Through video sessions, we work together on the experiences and patterns affecting your daily life.
Request an initial online therapy appointment. We will follow up about therapist fit, fees and availability before confirming your first session.
What is ACT, in everyday language?
ACT helps you practice focusing or shifting attention and gaining more choice over your actions. When a prediction or harsh self-judgment pulls you into a painful loop, we practice noticing the thought, considering useful information, and returning attention to what needs your care. The aim is to reduce its grip on your behavior.
That work begins with acknowledging what hurts. Making room means allowing a feeling or sensation without having to force it away, then widening attention to include your surroundings, needs, and options. We practice at a manageable pace and consider support, boundaries, rest, and changes to your circumstances. Committed action means choosing something that matters to you and finding a supported way to move toward it.
This is different from forcing yourself to push through. You have a say in the pace and direction. Relief matters, and so does building more choice in how you respond. Read our plain-language guide to ACT for a fuller explanation.
What brings people to online therapy?
Anxiety and Overthinking
Worry, replaying conversations, fear of mistakes, or organizing life around avoiding discomfort. We explore what the alarm is responding to and what would help. Our guide to ACT for overthinking and rumination looks at mental loops, certainty-seeking, and making room before choosing a response. Learn about our approach to anxiety therapy. If fear of another attack is limiting your choices, explore ACT for panic attacks and panic disorder.
ADHD and Getting Started
Difficulty beginning, planning, remembering, or following through can come with frustration and shame. Therapy can combine ACT with practical supports and changes to your environment. Explore ACT for ADHD and executive dysfunction.
Autism, Overwhelm, and Identity
Sensory demands, masking, communication differences, and other people’s expectations can leave you depleted. Our neurodiversity-affirming counseling respects your identity and support needs.
Low Mood and Feeling Disconnected
When energy is low or relationships and activities feel distant, therapy can help you understand what is happening and build support around your current capacity. Explore depression counseling.
We also work with trauma, relationship concerns, and life changes. We will discuss clinician fit and whether online sessions suit your situation when you reach out.
What happens in an online ACT session?
You meet with your therapist by video from a private space. Sessions can include conversation, looking closely at a difficult moment, and practicing a response together. You do not need to know ACT terminology or arrive with a perfectly organized explanation.
- Understand the situation. We listen to what has been difficult, what you have tried, and the demands and supports around you.
- Practice with support. We might acknowledge a feeling, create distance from a thought, orient to the room, or explore what matters in a decision. Exercises can be adapted or paused.
- Choose and review a next step. Together we identify something workable, such as asking for clearer instructions, having a conversation, making room for recovery, or approaching a situation gradually. We check how it went and adjust.
ACT is our foundation. CBT strategies, DBT skills, and practical supports may be integrated when they fit your goals. See how ACT therapy is personalized.

Questions About Online ACT Therapy
Do I need to live near The Woodlands?
No. You can ask about virtual counseling from elsewhere in Texas, including Houston, Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio, and smaller communities. Our online services are for clients located in Texas at the time of the session. Let your therapist know about travel before an appointment.
Is online therapy right for everyone?
Fit depends on your concerns, privacy, technology access, and level of support needed. We discuss those factors with you. Some situations call for in-person treatment, specialized care, or more frequent support.
Will I be asked to push through overwhelming feelings?
We work collaboratively to understand the experience, create some space around it, and choose a manageable response. Your needs and consent guide the work. Making room for feelings can go alongside rest, accommodations, boundaries, and changes to difficult circumstances.
Can I ask for a daytime appointment?
Yes. Tell us the days and times that work for you when requesting an appointment. Openings change, so we will discuss current daytime availability and any wait-list options.
Do I need a diagnosis before contacting you?
No. You can begin by describing what has been difficult and what you hope will change. We can discuss assessment and whether another type of support would be useful.
