About Alicyn
Dr. Alicyn Hennis is a licensed professional counselor with 24 years of experience. She helps people handle stress, anxiety, anger, trauma and abuse, and concerns around depression and self-esteem.
She also supports those dealing with parenting strain, grief, relationship challenges, eating issues, ADHD, and major life changes. She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what can change.
She builds an honest, supportive relationship and uses clear techniques people can try between sessions.
Background and approach
Her work draws on cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She blends that with mindfulness practices to calm the body and attention. Attachment-based ideas are also used to understand patterns in close relationships and how they affect emotions.
Dr. Hennis has worked across many settings since 2002, including significant work with children who have experienced trauma and with their caregivers. She brings that long experience to sessions while tailoring strategies to each person’s needs and pace.
Sessions are offered from Texas and conducted in English. People access care through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session based on therapist availability.

How evidence-based approaches work online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current emotional responses. Online sessions can help people notice those patterns and practice new ways of relating in real time. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing small changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and anger. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to calm the body and reduce reactivity.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and daily life. Treatment plans can combine approaches and change over time based on what helps most.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a full conversational session and nonverbal cues. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text are handy for brief check-ins, quick skill practice, or fitting therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to pick the format that fits current needs and energy.
