About Dennis

Dennis Jones is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 21 years of experience. He focuses on issues like LGBT concerns, relationships, anger, self-esteem, depression, stress, and anxiety. He speaks English and works with people who want practical help for life changes and everyday struggles.

Dennis believes people know their own stories and brings a respectful, listening-first stance to sessions. He looks for each person’s strengths and helps them use those strengths to move past problems.

Background and approach

Many people find this straightforward, supportive approach helpful when facing tough moments. In sessions he mixes clear, goal-oriented tools with deeper conversation about patterns and feelings. That means sometimes practicing new ways of thinking and acting, and sometimes looking at how past experiences shape current reactions.

He aims to be practical and down-to-earth rather than overly technical. He also addresses areas such as attachment, blended family issues, communication problems, control issues, and recovery from substance concerns. Other focus areas include fatherhood, HIV/AIDS, men’s issues, veteran and armed forces concerns, multicultural challenges, and coping with grief or prejudice.

Dennis offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Costs vary by location and therapist availability and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules according to availability.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on active listening and respect for the person’s own goals. The therapist follows the client’s lead, helping them notice strengths and make decisions that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses clear steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EFT, centers on emotions and attachment needs to improve important relationships and deepen connection.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Dennis will collaborate with each person to figure out which method or combination fits best based on needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made so the plan can change when needed.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or travel and to use tools between conversations. Many people find the range of options helps them stay consistent and get support in ways that match their day-to-day life.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
