About Dennis

Dennis Steelman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, addictions, and anger. He also works with issues of guilt and shame and the impact of sexual assault and abuse.

Dennis uses several approaches in his work, including cognitive behavioral techniques and EMDR. He emphasizes understanding where someone has been and where they want to go. Sessions involve talking through current struggles and identifying practical steps to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.

He frames therapy as a process that takes time and steady effort. Part of the work is looking at past experiences that shape present habits. Another part is learning new ways to respond to stress and strong emotions.

Dennis aims to help people recognize patterns, practice different skills, and track small changes over time. He guides clients through goal-setting and regular check-ins. The focus is on concrete skills and incremental progress rather than quick fixes.

Sessions are conducted in English and reflect his practice in Texas. If you want to move forward, you complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The cost of sessions varies with location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Dennis uses CBT and EMDR in remote work

CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, then testing and changing them through small practical experiments and skill practices. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. EMDR involves guided attention and structured memory processing aimed at reducing the intensity of traumatic memories and related reactions. It is often used for trauma and abuse-related difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Dennis will discuss how these methods might fit a person's history, goals, and comfort level. He collaborates with clients to try approaches, check how they feel, and adjust the plan over time.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people join from locations that reduce commute time and better match daily routines. Ask about available formats when you schedule to find what fits your needs.
