Dr. Alicyn Hennis , LPC

Dr. Alicyn Hennis has been providing counseling since 2002 and brings 24 years of experience to her work with clients across the lifespan. She believes that people already possess many of the strengths they need to grow and heal, and she helps clients identify and build on those abilities to become the people they want to be. Her practice includes work with children as young as three as well as with adolescents and adults, with substantial experience supporting children who have experienced trauma and the caregivers who care for them.

Dr. Hennis emphasizes an authentic, supportive therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change. She draws on techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness to help clients manage difficult thoughts and emotions, and she also uses Solution-Focused methods and other modalities tailored to each person’s needs. As an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), she combines practical skills with a collaborative, strengths-based approach to help individuals and families navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief, parenting concerns, and a range of other issues. Dr. Hennis welcomes the opportunity to work alongside clients as they pursue greater resilience and well-being.

Therapeutic approaches and online care with Dr. Alicyn Hennis

Dr. Alicyn Hennis draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness to help clients notice and shift unhelpful thought patterns while building moment-to-moment awareness of emotions and bodily experience. CBT is practical and skill-oriented, often used for anxiety, depression, and stress, while mindfulness supports emotional regulation and reduces reactivity. She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and to strengthen connection, which can be especially helpful for clients dealing with trauma, grief, relationship challenges, or parenting concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Dr. Hennis works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting interventions over time as insight and circumstances evolve. Clients are active partners in deciding what feels most helpful.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit counseling into busy lives and to maintain continuity of care across schedules and locations. These formats support flexible scheduling, faster access to a licensed professional, and the ability to engage in therapy from familiar settings, while preserving the therapist-client relationship at the heart of effective work.
