Dannette Henley , LPC

Dannette Henley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with over two decades of experience helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and women’s issues. She focuses on building trust so people feel comfortable talking about hard things. Her goal is to help clients find practical ways to cope and move forward.

Dannette keeps sessions straightforward and person-centered. She listens for each person's strengths and then tailors conversation and strategies to fit daily life. This often means breaking concerns into small, manageable steps and practicing new skills between sessions.

She has worked for 21 years with concerns such as parenting pressures, self-esteem struggles, anger, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and relationship and family problems. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, impulsivity, and young adult transitions. Her approach is respectful and compassionate.

Clients can expect clear goals and an emphasis on building resilience. Dannette aims to help people identify what is working and where change is needed. She also brings attention to faith or personal values when that matters to the client.

Dannette describes therapy as something that extends beyond the appointment. She often notices ideas, books, or moments in daily life that might help a client, and she brings those observations back into session. That ongoing attention guides practical steps toward a more fulfilling life.

Online approaches that fit your life

Dannette uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common approach emphasizes skill building to manage anxiety and stress through simple, repeatable practices that can be used during the day. This helps when worry or overwhelm gets in the way of daily tasks.

Another approach centers on processing trauma and difficult emotions by creating safety in the conversation and breaking events into manageable pieces. That method supports people working through painful memories or patterns that keep repeating.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about current needs, goals, and what feels most comfortable, then adjust methods as progress is made. Clients help shape the plan and try techniques that match their life and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people see facial cues and work in a deeper session. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging give quick, ongoing check-ins and shorter reflections between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around a busy life.
