Ursula Rice, LCSW

Ursula Rice is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 23 years of experience. She focuses on adults facing life transitions, stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges tied to health and caregiving. She works with people who want practical tools to manage emotions and daily demands. Ursula aims to create a warm, respectful space where clients can speak honestly and begin to make small, steady changes.

Her background includes work in hospitals, schools, long-term care facilities, and private practice. That variety shaped her view that physical health and emotional health often affect each other. She helps adults managing chronic pain, illness, or disability find coping strategies that fit their routines. She also supports those dealing with grief, relationship struggles, and parenting stress.

Ursula’s approach is collaborative and straightforward. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as cognitive behavioral ideas and solution-focused methods to help people identify unhelpful patterns and try new responses. Strengths-based work is used to build on what’s already working in a person’s life.

Sessions are aimed at practical change rather than labels. She helps clients set clear, manageable goals and practices skills they can use between meetings. Her long experience in varied settings informs flexible, realistic planning for daily life.

People who want a steady, practical therapist who values respect and real-world solutions may find her style helpful. She sees clients in Texas and offers work with adult concerns related to health, caregiving, and major life changes.

How evidence-based approaches fit online care

Ursula commonly uses cognitive behavioral ideas and solution-focused methods to help people make concrete changes. Cognitive behavioral ideas look at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teach practical steps to shift unhelpful patterns; this can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Solution-focused methods emphasize quick goal-setting and building on existing strengths to move forward with small, manageable steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative planning means techniques are adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Confirm session options before booking, as this profile does not list specific online formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as scheduling shorter check-ins during a work break or avoiding travel time to an office. It can also be useful when managing chronic illness or caregiving responsibilities, since sessions can be arranged to match daily routines. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework for use between sessions to help skills transfer into day-to-day life.
