01About Alicyn
Dr. Alicyn Hennis offers help for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, parenting challenges, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and body issues, ADHD, and work or career strain. She also supports those dealing with compassion fatigue, bipolar mood concerns, abandonment and attachment issues, and the effects of domestic violence and substance use on daily life.
Dr. Hennis draws on 24 years of counseling experience and uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions.
Background and approach
She listens first and then helps people identify small, useful changes they can try between appointments. Sessions aim to strengthen coping skills and improve day-to-day functioning rather than focus only on labels or paperwork. Her style centers on building a trusting, genuine relationship with each person.
That relationship guides treatment choices and helps people feel safer talking about painful memories and current struggles. She blends awareness-building with hands-on behavioral steps to help reduce symptoms and increase meaningful connection. Clinically she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change patterns of thinking and behavior.
She also draws from Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches to focus on relationship patterns and on listening without judgment. Mindfulness practices are introduced to help with stress, anxiety, and emotional regulation. Dr.
Hennis holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential, and she practices from Texas. She works with adults and with caregiver-adult relationships affected by trauma and attachment concerns. Her approach is practical, empathetic, and tailored to each person’s goals.

04Online support
How therapeutic approaches transfer to online care
Attachment-Based work focuses on relationship patterns and helps people notice how early connections shape current feelings and behaviors. In online sessions this can mean talking through how trust and closeness feel now and trying different ways of relating in daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns; it often uses short exercises and homework that translate easily to video or text-based formats. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and help manage anxiety and stress, which can be practiced between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dr. Hennis will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process may mix approaches over time as progress is reviewed and new priorities emerge.
Online formats offer practical benefits: video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be simpler to schedule, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick check-ins or written reflection. These options make it easier to match session style to what is needed that week, whether it is a teaching moment, a short coping strategy check, or a longer therapeutic conversation.
