About Alisha
Alisha Dennis-Brinson is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - LPC, who practices in Ohio and has more than 11 years of experience. She focuses on anxiety and stress alongside concerns like depression, trauma, addictions, and relationship struggles. Her style is warm and client-centered, with an emphasis on helping people notice strengths as they work toward change.
She creates an affirming space where clients can talk through thoughts, feelings, and behaviors without judgment.
Background and approach
Sessions are used to set small, practical goals that the person chooses. The work is collaborative and paced to match each client's comfort level. Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address issues such as grief, intimacy-related challenges, eating and sleeping problems, and coping with life changes.
She also supports people navigating ADHD, bipolar symptoms, career stress, and compassion fatigue. Conversations may include skills practice, problem-solving, and planning for real-life situations. Alisha helps people who identify as LGBT and those facing parenting or family stress to clarify values and build coping tools.
She pays attention to how past trauma or abuse can affect current relationships and daily functioning. Therapy focuses on steady progress rather than quick fixes. Clients can expect guidance to develop an individualized plan and steps they can try between sessions.
She acknowledges how hard it can be to reach out and aims to make the first steps straightforward and respectful.
Evidence-based approaches and online therapy options
Alisha often uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical skills and developing awareness. One approach helps people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, teaching concrete strategies to manage anxiety and depression. Another approach emphasizes grounding and skill-building to reduce distress after trauma and to improve sleep, eating patterns, and emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is a shared process. She works with each person to decide which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. The therapist and client set goals together and try methods that feel workable in daily life.
Online therapy offers flexibility with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversation and nonverbal cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging supports brief check-ins, skill coaching between sessions, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep consistent contact with a licensed professional.
