About me

When you feel like you're spinning your wheels, therapy can provide traction you need to get your life moving forward.

Therapy can help you learn how to stop struggling with creative stagnation, worry, self-doubt, lack of motivation, loneliness, homesickness, or the pain of loss. Therapy can help get you unstuck from repeated struggles with yourself and difficulties with others.

In our meetings, you and I will work together to identify roadblocks that keep holding you back. I will assist you in creating permanent strategies for getting past those roadblocks, empowering you to:

* Navigate life's transitions with clarity and intention
* Strengthen relationships, improve communication skills, and cultivate more meaningful connections
* Process grief and come to peace with losses
* Foster resilience and mental toughness to face challenges with determination
* Unleash creativity and problem-solving by exploring new perspectives, embracing your unique talents, and tapping into your deepest artistry
* Embody your core values and show up for life with integrity and purpose

Together, we will work on unlocking your potential to build a more complete, fulfilling, dynamic, and purposeful life.

I am available for live sessions (video or phone) from early morning through afternoon on weekdays.

Early risers, take note! Depending on the day, I may have morning appointments available as early as 4:00 AM Pacific/5:00 AM Mountain/6:00 AM Central/7:00 AM Eastern, and sometimes earlier.

I am licensed to provide therapy when you are physically located in California, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Wisconsin, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Vermont, or Maine.

Dennis is a true professional, and makes me feel so understood. I can say something that’s been on my mind forever, and he has this way of simplifying and helping me work through it. Just feeling heard is so huge, but then getting the tools to help myself is what I’ve needed. I am very thankful.

I’ve been working with Dennis for a year now and I’m extremely thankful for every single session. I went through what felt like a bunch of transitional phases in my life within the past year and he’s been with me every step of the way and I could not be more thankful for his insight and help on everything.

He is understanding, he listens with an open mind and without judgment. And his advice really makes a difference
