Dennis Forfa

Dennis Forfa is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 16 years of experience. He focuses on helping people who feel stuck - whether that's due to worry, creative blocks, or the pain of loss. He guides clients toward practical steps that make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

He helps people untangle the problems that repeat in their lives. Sessions aim to pinpoint roadblocks and create strategies to move past them. That work often involves improving communication, strengthening relationships, and reducing the isolation that can come with life changes.

Dennis supports people coping with grief, midlife shifts, and career uncertainty. He also addresses issues like guilt, shame, and intimacy-related concerns. The goal is to build resilience and clearer direction rather than quick fixes.

His approach draws on acceptance and commitment therapy, existential ideas, mindfulness, and narrative work. In practice that means learning to notice what matters, reframe personal stories, and develop steady habits that reflect core values.

Sessions are offered with attention to real-life schedules and responsibilities. People who want to start are asked to use the site's Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling.

Online approaches that meet you where you are

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what really matters and take committed steps toward those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings show up. It can be useful for anxiety, low motivation, and getting unstuck. Mindfulness therapy focuses on simple present-moment awareness skills to reduce reactivity and improve emotional balance; it can help with stress, grief, and daily overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dennis will collaborate with each person to decide which ideas to use and when. Together they adapt methods to fit the person’s goals, preferences, and life demands rather than forcing one fixed method.

The therapist’s biography mentions live sessions by video or phone, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also help people connect with consistent support during transitions or periods of loneliness. If you want to explore how these approaches would work for you, start with the matching questionnaire and schedule a session to discuss options.
