Dr. Jessica Dennis , LPC

Dr. Jessica Dennis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia who brings more than a decade of professional experience to her work. She focuses on supporting people who are navigating career difficulties, seeking executive or professional coaching, managing anxiety, or coping with compassion fatigue. With a practical, compassionate style, she aims to create an open environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment and where clients can build skills and insight to address everyday challenges.

At this time Dr. Dennis meets exclusively through live chat messaging; individuals who prefer phone or video sessions may wish to consider other therapists. She typically schedules sessions in the evenings but may arrange set chat sessions earlier in the day by request - prospective clients are invited to message her to discuss earlier chat availability. Taking the first step toward therapy can take courage, and Dr. Dennis acknowledges and supports that willingness to begin the work.

Evidence-Based Support and Online Chat for Working Professionals

Dr. Jessica Dennis combines executive and professional coaching with evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients address workplace challenges and personal stress. Executive and professional coaching focuses on practical goals - improving workplace performance, clarifying career direction, and building leadership skills - and is well suited to professionals navigating transitions or role-related stress.

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques involve structured, goal-oriented strategies that target symptoms like anxiety, burnout, and compassion fatigue while helping clients develop coping skills and resilience. These approaches are tailored to the individual and applied in ways that match the client's needs and circumstances.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Dennis works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods align with their goals, preferences, and life situation. She encourages open conversation about what is and is not working so the plan can be adjusted together.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect with licensed professionals. Video calls and phone sessions create face-to-face interaction, while live chat and text-based messaging allow for shorter, more frequent check-ins and scheduling ease. Dr. Dennis currently meets via live chat messaging and highlights its accessibility for clients who prefer written, real-time conversations; she can discuss scheduling options for set chat sessions earlier in the day on request.
