About Ann
Ann Dennis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who brings seven years of counseling experience to her work. She previously spent 30 years in public education, including 13 years as a school counselor, and has served in roles such as Parent Engagement Coordinator and campus leadership. Ann focuses on making it easier for people to talk about hard things and to find practical ways forward.
She works with people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, anger, and depression. Ann also helps with issues like abandonment, body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation. Her approach aims to create a nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be named and examined.
Ann draws on Client-Centered Therapy to center the person's own experience and priorities during sessions. She also uses elements from acceptance and commitment strategies, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness work, and brief solution-focused methods to address immediate concerns and build new skills.
Sessions tend to emphasize clear goals and practical steps alongside reflective listening. Clients can expect work on coping strategies, communication skills, and ways to reduce distress in daily life. Ann encourages collaboration, helping people decide which tools best fit their needs.
Her background in schools informs a patient, steady style that values family context and real-life routines. People who want a straightforward, empathetic counselor who listens first may find her approach helpful.
How Ann Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Client-Centered Therapy places the person's own experience at the center of sessions, with the therapist listening closely and following the client's priorities to shape each meeting. That approach helps people feel heard while they decide what changes matter most. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines accepting difficult thoughts and feelings with choosing actions that match personal values; it is often used for mood, anxiety, and trauma-related struggles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like panic or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to try strategies and see what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions can mix methods over time so the plan stays practical and responsive to progress.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or letting someone choose not to be on camera if that feels easier. Licensed professionals can use these formats to help people build coping skills, improve communication, and manage everyday stress without promising a specific service.
