Kenneth Denny, LCSW, CSW

Kenneth Denny is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 35 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and relationship concerns. He offers a direct and relaxed style that aims to make conversations feel straightforward and useful. Kenneth works with individuals and couples and brings practical focus to the issues people bring to therapy.

He blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness practices. Those approaches are used to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, try new behaviors, and calm intense reactions. He also uses psychodynamic ideas and EMDR when deeper trauma and patterns are part of the work.

In sessions Kenneth talks plainly about triggers, coping strategies, and realistic changes to try between meetings. He helps people build small skills for managing mood, anger, and addictive urges. He also assists with relationship and parenting challenges by focusing on clearer communication and problem solving.

His background includes long experience with diverse cultural and economic communities and with LGBTQIA+ clients. Kenneth aims to tailor treatment plans so goals match each person’s life and values. He emphasizes building a practical toolkit for self-care and steady progress.

Getting started involves choosing a plan and scheduling a first session. Kenneth encourages people to take that first step toward clearer thinking, more effective coping, and stronger relationships.

How Kenneth’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s needs and goals and gives space for someone to set the pace. It helps when someone wants to be heard and guided rather than told what to do. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and gives concrete exercises to change unhelpful reactions and manage anxiety or mood problems. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a trauma-focused approach that works with distressing memories and their emotional impact.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Kenneth will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. The first sessions are often used to identify priorities and try a few techniques to see what feels helpful.

The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow a shorter check-in during a work break. It also lets people follow up more consistently, practice skills between sessions, and return to sessions from wherever they are located.
