About Ruby

Ruby Preston is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) licensed in Texas with 15 years of professional experience in private practice. She focuses on helping people navigate stress and anxiety, manage addictions, address parenting challenges, and build motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she adapts conversations and treatment plans to fit the individual circumstances and goals of each client. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, she tailors her work to the specific needs presented in session.

Recognizing that beginning therapy often requires courage, she affirms clients for taking that step and works collaboratively to create a path forward. Her practice emphasizes practical support alongside empathic listening to help clients make meaningful progress at a pace that feels manageable.

CBT and DBT Applied in Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical strategies to change them. It is often used to address anxiety, low mood, and challenges with motivation by helping clients build skills for more balanced thinking and behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) combines skill-building in mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT is useful for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and developing coping tools for high-stress moments.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Ruby Preston collaborates with clients to determine what fits best. She will consider each client’s needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust techniques over time so the work stays relevant and effective. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy aligns with the client’s pace and priorities.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility and accessibility. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can connect from different settings and schedules. These options make it easier to engage consistently in treatment, practice new skills between sessions, and maintain momentum while balancing daily responsibilities. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and DBT techniques effectively across these formats to support ongoing growth.
