I have spent years working closely with adults and older adults and getting to know challenges that you might be facing: major life transitions, agism, dementia (person diagnosed + caregivers), chronic illness, facing life changing medical challenges (such as transplant) and overall challenges that come as we grow older.
Are you finding yourself navigating transitions as an adult or older adult?

Therapy is not about helping you. It's about helping you to help yourself. It's about empowerment. At times, we all feel disempowered by life, by loss, by feelings of anxiety and depression, etc. Life is a journey, and sometimes it is difficult to move forward. If you are reading this, maybe I am meant to be a part of your journey and you are meant to be a part of mine. Wherever you are in your journey, whatever difficulty you are facing, there are "...plans to give you a hope and a future (Jer 29:11)."

It can be painful to struggle with issues and wish that they might somehow disappear. I understand how these issues can sometimes make you feel your life is stuck and that they can prevent you from living or enjoying your life more fully. I also know how difficult it can be to seek help or talk about these issues. This is why it is my approach to get to know each client and find an individualized and unique path to addressing the issues that are preventing them from creating a greater sense of well-being and happiness.

There is possibility for real change. Science has discovered we can create new pathways in the brain, and the body is able to discharge trauma. I am a certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner and also am trained in Brainspotting. Both modalities help heal trauma on a very deep organic level. Creating that change together is the journey that I am here to help support in my clients.

I work with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship problems, and identity issues, including those resulting from sociocultural biases and injustice.
I’m Dennis Pottenger, a marriage and family therapist, and bring to therapy experience guiding clients through dark and sometimes painful places. Over the years I have found that attention to the unconscious enables those who are suffering to transform painful and debilitating conflict, anxiety, depression, or grief into meaning, fulfillment, and greater personal wholeness and authenticity. In psychotherapy sessions I create a safe and welcoming environment, responding to your needs and goals with humanistic, Jungian, psychodynamic, relational, and trauma-informed approaches that are nonjudgmental and non-pathologizing.
