Wendy Copeland, M.A., LPC is a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 11 years of experience
in behavioral health. Wendy is a native Texan and a Texas Aggie. She earned her Bachelor’s
degree, Cum Laude, in Psychology from Texas A&M University in 1995. Relocating to Florida with
her husband, she studied Mental Health Psychology at Florida Atlantic University while also working
in an acute pediatric inpatient unit and an inpatient/outpatient chemical dependency rehabilitation
facility. Although they enjoyed the adventure, Wendy and her husband were thankful to be relocated
back to Texas in 1997; the rest is history!
While studying at the University of North Texas Master’s Counseling Psychology Program, Wendy
worked at a local community psychiatric hospital as an adolescent milieu therapist. She also served
as a Teaching Fellow in the Psychology Department at North Texas. In 2000, she successfully
completed her graduate work, earning a Master's in Counseling Psychology. Her post graduate Intern
work included experience in an urban outpatient psychiatric clinic, hospice, and a traumatic brain
injury rehabilitation.
Prior to joining Stonebriar Psychiatric Services, Wendy served as a Cognitive Therapist and
Counselor for traumatic brain-injured clients and their families. She also served as a Crisis
Interventionist at several North Texas hospitals, providing psychological assessment and services to
individuals in mental and emotional crisis. Her unique range of clinical experience encompasses
specialized work with pediatric and adolescent populations; adult behavioral health (acute inpatient to
general outpatient); individuals with mental, emotional, and/or physical challenges; the severely ill or
dying; and couples and families undergoing loss, grief, and adjustment. Within therapy, Wendy has
addressed a breadth of issues, including but not limited to: spirituality; grief and loss; marital issues;
divorce; parent-child conflict and attachment issues; adolescence; abuse; suicide and self-injurious
behavior; homicidal ideation; crisis situations; adjustment and self-care for mental illness and healing,
behavioral and personality disorders; substance abuse; addictions; self-identity and choices; post-
traumatic disorders; communication and maintaining healthy relationships; rehabilitation (brain injury,
physical impairment, community re-entry, and adjustment); and juvenile offense.
In therapy, Wendy utilizes an integrated and collaborative approach, walking with individuals as they
move towards healing and wellness. She works with both secular and faith-based individuals. For
those who prefer faith-based counseling, Wendy offers fresh perspective and hope to those who are
seeking peace, purpose, and meaning in the midst of challenge, loss and grief.
Wendy resides in the North Texas area with her husband and two children. She and her family are
active members of a local church where they serve, learn, and grow. When not working, Wendy
enjoys time with her husband and kids, as well as with extended family, friends, and neighbors. She
also enjoys running, playing basketball, (moderate!) physical training, developing her culinary skills,
and good old-fashioned down-time.
