About Ann
Ann Dennis is a Licensed Professional Counselor with seven years of clinical experience and a long background in education. She earned a master’s degree in counseling and brings a calm, steady presence to sessions. Ann focuses on helping people manage anger, navigate relationship and intimacy concerns, and recover from trauma and mood struggles.
Before moving into full-time counseling work she spent three decades in public education, including 13 years as a school counselor.
Background and approach
Those roles included parent engagement coordination and campus leadership, which gave her practical experience speaking with people across ages and situations. In sessions she aims to build an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through difficult feelings. She likes to work collaboratively and uses clear, everyday language.
People can expect a straightforward approach that emphasizes practical skills and real-life application. Ann draws on several methods to help clients make concrete change. She uses cognitive strategies to notice unhelpful thinking, acceptance-based tools to reduce struggle with hard emotions, and mindfulness practices to stay grounded.
She also uses solution-focused techniques to set small, achievable goals and track progress. Her practice addresses a broad range of concerns including depression, panic, post-traumatic stress, impulsivity, and issues around self-worth such as body image and guilt. Ann also supports people dealing with divorce, loneliness, and midlife questions, helping them find clearer next steps.

How her approaches shape online care
Ann often blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts and actions. ACT helps people notice painful feelings and choose actions that match their values, which can be useful for anger and avoidance. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thought patterns and practicing different behaviors, which helps with mood problems and panic.She treats approach selection as a collaborative process. During early sessions she will talk with the client about goals and preferences, and together they decide which methods to emphasize. Adjustments are made as progress and needs become clearer, so the plan evolves with the client rather than staying fixed.
Online therapy offers multiple ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill practice and deeper conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging work well for short updates, mood tracking, or when a written check-in fits a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines and to keep momentum between sessions.
