Socorro Dennis, LICSW, LCSW

Socorro Dennis is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, low self-esteem, anger, and depression. She speaks plainly and offers steady support while clients take small steps toward clearer goals. Socorro is based in Florida and draws on seven years of clinical experience as she works alongside people to improve day-to-day functioning and wellbeing.

She focuses on practical strategies that fit into real life. Sessions center on identifying patterns that keep problems going and trying different coping skills. Socorro adapts the pace and tone to each person's needs and priorities rather than using one fixed plan.

Her background includes work with trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, and workplace stress. She also supports people dealing with addiction, seasonal mood changes, and issues around guilt, shame, or forgiveness. Cultural background and life context are considered when creating a plan for change.

In sessions she blends problem-solving with skills practice and open conversation. That can mean setting small, measurable goals, testing new behaviors between meetings, and checking what helps or does not. Socorro encourages self-compassion while staying focused on realistic steps forward.

People who prefer clear, straightforward guidance and gentle accountability often find this style helpful. Socorro describes therapy as a collaborative process and invites clients to shape the work to meet their changing needs.

How online therapy and practical approaches work together

Socorro uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in ways that fit an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, or problematic habits. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and letting the client's priorities guide each session. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving tolerance for distress.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the therapeutic process. Socorro works collaboratively to choose approaches that match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time and checks in about what is and isn't helping so the plan stays useful.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations and skills coaching. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging support brief updates, coping reminders, or ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
