Dannette Henley

Dannette Henley is an LPC in Michigan who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting concerns. She supports those coping with trauma, self-esteem struggles, anger, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also offers care for LGBT concerns, family problems, abandonment issues, impulsivity, and challenges common to young adults and women. She focuses on building trust first so clients can make changes. Sessions are tailored to each person and their goals. She aims to strengthen resilience and practical skills that help between appointments. Her approach centers on listening with respect and sensitivity. She crafts treatment conversations to match a client's needs and life situation. Dannette emphasizes real-life tools rather than abstract theory. Therapy for her continues outside the session. She looks for books, quotes, and everyday moments that might help a client and brings those ideas back to sessions. That ongoing attention shapes the way she supports progress week to week. People who choose her can expect encouragement to try small, manageable changes. She frames healing as a series of steps rather than a single event. Dannette says taking the first step takes courage, and she aims to support and empower people through that process.

How evidence-based techniques work in online therapy

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often combine practical strategies with supportive conversation. For example, a skills-based approach teaches step-by-step coping methods that help with anxiety, stress, impulsivity, and day-to-day overwhelm. These techniques focus on small actions someone can practice between sessions to reduce distress and build confidence.

Another common approach uses trauma-informed listening and pacing to help people process difficult experiences more safely. This method emphasizes building trust, recognizing triggers, and developing steady skills for managing strong emotions. It can be useful for people coping with abuse, grief, or compassion fatigue.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made so the plan stays practical and relevant.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats offered before booking since formats were not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people choose quieter surroundings or avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt session pacing and tools to fit remote work, helping clients apply strategies in everyday situations.
