Ann Dennis

Ann Dennis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas. She trained at Tarleton State University and brings seven years of counseling experience to her therapeutic work. Ann focuses on helping people who are dealing with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, anger, and depression.

Before shifting into clinical counseling, she spent three decades in public education, including 13 years as a school counselor. Those roles included parent engagement coordination and campus leadership, which shaped her practical approach to helping people navigate life stressors.

Ann aims to make the space in sessions feel open and nonjudgmental. She listens for what matters most to each person and helps them name goals they want to reach. Conversations tend to be straightforward and focused on the next useful steps.

Her work often addresses patterns like communication problems, abandonment fears, guilt and shame, and struggles with self-worth or body image. She also supports people facing divorce or separation, panic attacks, mood shifts, and post-traumatic stress.

Ann uses several evidence-informed methods to guide sessions, including cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, acceptance and commitment ideas, solution-focused strategies, and a client-centered stance. She encourages practical actions between meetings so progress can be noticed in daily life.

To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How these approaches can work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking small steps toward those values while accepting difficult feelings. It can help with anger, depression, and ongoing stress that gets in the way of chosen goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns; this is useful for mood issues, panic, and impulsivity. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes being heard and understood so people feel safer trying new ways of coping and relating.

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 process can include mixing techniques from different approaches to see what helps most in everyday life.

The profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to attend when travel would be difficult. A focus on practical homework and short exercises between meetings can make online work feel purposeful and relevant to daily routines.
