Mr. Dennis Portnoy

“For over twenty years I have been working with individuals and couples (heterosexual and gay). I work with a wide range of issues including relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, work stress, burnout and life balance. I also see a lot of couples. My style is interactive, collaborative and I tend to get right to the heart of the matter quickly. I don't believe in a one -size- fits- all approach to therapy. I'm trained in several modalities but tailor my approach to your unique temperament.

FOR COUPLES:In addition to the strain that today"s hectic world puts on couples,relationship stress also comes from less obvious factors such as emotional residue left over from former romantic partners and early family experience. It is in your relationship where frustration and hurt from the past is most likely to manifest.

I see my role with couples as helping you become more skillful in your communication and recognizing the underlying fears and distorted expectations that perpetuate conflict, lack of desire, defensiveness or decreased intimacy.”
