About Kenneth

Kenneth Denny is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 35 years of experience helping people handle strong emotions and life stressors. He focuses on practical ways to reduce anxiety, manage anger, and cope with depression and relationship strain. Kenneth uses straightforward, respectful language and aims to make therapy feel approachable and doable for busy people.

He combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral tools and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build better habits. Kenneth also draws on psychodynamic ideas and EMDR when trauma and deep emotional patterns are part of the picture. Sessions emphasize clear goals, homework that fits everyday life, and small skills that add up over time.

Kenneth often helps people sort through parenting and family issues, work stress, identity questions, grief, and addictive behaviors. He also supports those dealing with life transitions, bipolar mood concerns, and challenges tied to aging or military experience. He has experience with diverse cultural and economic backgrounds and works with LGBTQ clients.

In sessions he is direct but relaxed, offering education about symptoms alongside practical exercises. Clients leave with a tailored plan, a toolbox of strategies, and steps for self-care and better communication. He encourages people to take the first step when they are ready to make changes.

Kenneth practices in Georgia and communicates in English. International clients are accepted; confirm current session options before booking.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely, reflecting what the person says, and helping them lead the conversation. It helps people who want a respectful, steady place to sort out feelings and decisions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect behavior and mood and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, anger, depression, and coping with life changes.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method used when trauma memories cause strong reactions; it aims to reduce the intensity of those reactions so daily life is easier to manage.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past, then suggest steps to try. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as people make progress.

Online therapy can help fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and making it easier to have regular check-ins. It can allow for shorter touch-in sessions when schedules are tight or for longer focused work when needed. Confirm current session options before booking to learn how sessions are offered and to choose what best fits your routine.
