More about Dennis
- 30 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
I have been working in the mental health field for the last 27 years in which I have experience in several different genres of clientele. I have worked in both inpatient care and outpatient services. These services have included family systems, individual and family counseling, domestic violence, chemical addiction-gambling addictions, and severe mental health needs. Currently, I am serving in a correctional setting with incarcerated offenders with a specialized program for Juveniles Convicted as Adults Program assisting the offender to transfer from a correctional setting after serving at least 25 years of their sentence.
To assist those to understand my clinical approach to counseling, I take a client-centered, solution-focused approached to counseling. By using both cognitive-behavioral and logotherapy techniques, I assist those who chose to engage in therapy to understand the drivers to their behaviors and addressing purpose and meaning in their lives.
To understand Logotherapy, it is a school of psychology and a philosophy based on the idea that we are strongly motivated to live purposefully and meaningfully, and that we find meaning in life as a result of responding authentically and humanely (i.e. meaningfully) to life's challenges. By using Logotherapy and understanding our belief systems we can better understand how we can make changes to our thoughts, feelings, and actions.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Good man, moving mountains
Dennis is amazing and understands how to direct the conversation when I have issues expressing myself
Dennis is a thoughtful therapist with insightful guidance.
Dennis is professional, graceful, experienced and practical. I am so grateful for his support and guidance.
Sincerely appreciate Dennis's ability to discuss and dig to the root cause or issue. He listens well, asks for clarification when needed, and helps keep talks on track and focused toward goals/outcomes. He challenges me toward improvement each time, even if improvement hurts, stings, or takes some time, he does not shy away from tackling hard things, in a caring manner. Thanks Dennis.
He is extremely knowledgeable and helpful provides only talk therapy, but examples of what we’re discussing work sheets everything he would need to get better.
Dennis is great. He listens and offers ways to connect my habits and thoughts to my issues. Even when I brought up he was focusing on an issue I believe was minor, he was able to take a step back and start looking into my concern versus what we were originally talking about.
He is fantastic so far. He’s the best therapist I’ve ever had because he brings actual frameworks into our conversations in an Illuminating way and finds tactical methods for me (vs only trying to find the source but not having solutions)
He is kind and has been trying to find out what we should cover to assist me in my Dysthymia.
Dennis and my sessions with him have played such an important role in where I am now and where I want to be headed. He’s funny, sincere, professional, committed, and encouraging. He consistently provides new views and concepts that, though foreign to me, have been genuine “ahhaaaa” moments that have helped me facilitate a better understanding about myself and my family. Without hesitation, I would (and do) recommend Dennis and BetterHelp often.
I feel respected, secure, and understood,
Such a good help. If you are Christian he is a believer that knows the word.
Dennis is great. Very helpful and knows how to get to the true root of an issue.
Dennis is so dedicated to my needs. He always makes time for me when I need it. He listens to me and always offers unbiased opinion. Dennis gives me several options on approaching solutions to my problems. He never sees a situation “black and white”. Dennis offers support through encouragement and reminding me to believe in myself. He says “no one is unfixable, you are not broken” and gives me the tools to do better and be better. Dennis has been able to help me so much, and I can’t thank him enough!
Dennis is one of a kind he is actually the most talented Therapist I have ever worked with And I highly recommend him
Dennis has helped me recover after my divorce. I have made great progress on building my self confidence and learning to accept who I was created to be. I value having Dennis to help me work through life’s challenges. It’s the best therapy I’ve ever received.

Knowledgeable and compassionate therapist who offers great, individualized help
Helps me so much
Dennis has helped me so much. He is the best therapist I have ever worked with. I have developed many coping skills and worked on self love and care. He has pushed me to find my new normal after my divorce.
He is personable, understandable and makes you work. He try’s his best to respond as soon as he can and is flexible with therapy which is super helpful.
For being a first time therapy user, I am very happy with how the sessions have been going with Dennis. He is patient, caring, and a great listener.
Dennis is awesome. He’s challenged me to reshape my thinking patterns about life and situations. I’m grateful to call him an influence in my life. Thank you Dennis.
Dennis is great! He is responsive, listens, and offers solid recommendations
Dennis has great experience, advice and tactics to tackle my issues. He has a great demeanor and is flexible. He is a hard working man. I respect his work with prisoners and his work ethic. He is, as I am, a Christian which is incredibly helpful.
Dennis has changed my life. His level-headed, unbiased, empathetic, kind and loving approach has saved me.
Dennis Siefker is a great therapist & counselor. He’s easy to talk to, makes necessary points that make sense in understanding . He makes it easy for me to get clarity & realize my feelings. This helps me to recognize a strategy for healing.
Dr. Siefker has been very helpful and I’ve only had a couple sessions so far. He is kind, listens well, and helps me to see where I need to improve. My husband and I both work with him and have come far already.
Dennis has been an amazing therapist to me! He’s a great listener, very professional, compassionate and has helped tremendously with many of my issues. He has offered me numerous new ways of approaching everyday problems with healthier solutions!
Dennis is a careful listener, and a thought provoking therapist. My experience with him has been profoundly helpful, and I greatly appreciated his skill in being able to guide me towards truths and angles of perspective I had trouble approaching on my own. I would say, in my experience, his style of communication is something like an ever deepening spiral of conversation, where if you are open to it, you can be led straight to the heart of the issue at hand. I would recommend him highly as a therapist.
Dennis takes his time to understand his patients and their needs and will even add time to make sure you are taken care of.
