About Ann
Ann Dennis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with seven years of clinical experience. She brings a calm, steady presence to conversations about relationships, trauma, intimacy, anger, and depression. Ann aims to make the first step feel manageable for people who are nervous about reaching out.
She draws on a mix of practical therapies to help people make real changes. Sessions focus on clear goals, such as managing panic, improving communication, or rebuilding trust after hurt.
Background and approach
Ann uses mindfulness and cognitive strategies to reduce overwhelming feelings and increase everyday coping skills. Her background includes a master’s degree in counseling and many years working in public education. That experience shaped her straightforward way of working and her attention to clear communication.
She learned to help people find practical tools that fit their daily lives. In sessions Ann keeps the tone direct but warm. She encourages people to name what matters to them and to try small, concrete steps between meetings.
Progress is measured by clearer thinking, fewer intense reactions, and better day-to-day routines. People often come for help with abandonment wounds, body-image concerns, guilt and shame, or midlife transitions. Ann also supports those dealing with panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, impulsivity, loneliness, and the aftermath of separation or divorce.
She works with sexuality and intimacy issues in a straightforward, nonjudgmental way.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Ann uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. CBT often helps with mood disorders, panic attacks, and managing strong emotions by breaking problems into small, doable steps.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and respect. That approach creates space for people to talk through painful experiences and to set their own goals at a comfortable pace.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ann will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She may combine techniques when it helps move progress forward.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls let therapists and clients work face to face when that is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging can support brief check-ins, homework review, or day-to-day coaching between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between sessions.
