About Dennies
Dennies Libert is a licensed clinical social worker who aims to help people find more balance and satisfaction in daily life. She offers straightforward, practical support for parents and individuals facing stress, grief, mood shifts, or struggles with self-esteem. Her approach is warm and focused on helping people feel heard and understood.
She has practiced as a psychotherapist in New York for 13 years and holds a Master of Social Work from Yeshiva University.
Background and approach
Over that time she has worked with adults coping with depression, trauma, anger, substance concerns, and adjustment issues. Her experience also includes supporting people dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue. Dennies uses client-centered methods that follow each person's pace and priorities.
She draws on cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking and habits, and she incorporates mindfulness and dialectical strategies to help manage emotions in the moment. Sessions focus on practical steps a person can use between meetings. In sessions she aims to build trust through a caring and respectful atmosphere.
Conversations are intended to be direct but compassionate so parents and individuals can address family stress, blended family worries, abandonment or attachment questions, and other concerns without feeling judged. Her work also covers career shifts, communication problems, body image, codependency, and coping with natural or human-caused disasters.
Dennies frames therapy as a collaborative process that helps people make choices that fit their lives.

Therapeutic approaches and how online therapy works
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships influence current connections and feelings. It helps people who notice repeating patterns in relationships, attachment concerns, or struggles with trust and closeness.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches concrete tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build healthier habits, which can help with depression, anxiety, and stress related to parenting or life changes.
Dennies approaches treatment collaboratively. She will talk with each person about goals, try different techniques, and adapt based on what helps most. Together the therapist and client decide which mix of approaches fits the situation and preferences.
Online therapy offers several practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people share updates between sessions or choose shorter, more frequent check-ins. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and busy schedules while still working with licensed professionals.
