About Socorro
Socorro Dennis is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage anger, stress, and anxiety. She works with adults who want clearer thinking, better moods, and more control over impulses. Her approach is direct and respectful, aimed at quieting distress and building everyday skills.
She uses plain conversation to understand what matters most to each person. Sessions focus on practical tools that can be tried between meetings, like new ways to notice thoughts and change unhelpful reactions.
Background and approach
Socorro blends client-centered listening with techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to create a plan that fits the individual. Her background includes seven years of clinical work and licenses as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, holding Florida credentials.
That experience includes helping people cope with addictions, depression, grief, trauma, workplace stress, and concerns related to identity and relationships. Socorro treats issues such as low self-esteem, compassion fatigue, and the fallout from sexual assault or other abuse. She also supports those facing life changes like career shifts or blended family stress.
Conversations can include coaching-style guidance when clients want concrete next steps. People who choose her can expect a collaborative pace and clear goals. Socorro helps set small, achievable targets and reviews progress regularly.
She encourages steady practice of skills so change feels manageable rather than overwhelming.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience without judgment. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want from therapy.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior. It teaches concrete strategies to change unhelpful thinking and reduce symptoms like anxiety or anger.
Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. It is useful when someone needs steady tools for impulse control and emotional regulation.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust strategies together. This collaborative process helps find what feels most useful and realistic for everyday life.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more accessible. Video is helpful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone calls are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats give flexibility to fit therapy into busy schedules and different routines.
