About Denis
Denis Kitchen is a licensed mental health counselor based in New York who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and struggles with self-esteem. He also supports those coping with life changes, grief, addictions, sleep problems, parenting concerns, and relationship or family tensions. Denis works with people across a wide range of concerns, including issues related to LGBT identity and bipolar mood challenges.
Denis emphasizes building resilience as the heart of therapy.
Background and approach
He meets people where they are and invites honest conversations. He encourages facing difficult feelings and testing realistic changes rather than promising quick fixes. In sessions he blends Jungian ideas about meaning and symbols with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy.
He also draws on client-centered and dialectical behavior approaches to help people notice patterns, accept what’s hard, and practice new ways of coping. Denis uses clear, direct language and a straightforward style in the therapy room. He allows any question or topic to be raised and works with clients to set goals that matter to them.
Therapy is a collaborative process focused on small, steady shifts rather than guaranteed outcomes. He holds a New York LMHC credential and has three years of clinical experience. Sessions are offered in English and are available for international clients who can schedule video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging formats.

Online support
Working with Jungian ideas and practical therapies online
Jungian Therapy looks at personal symbols, dreams, and life stories to help people find meaning and a stronger sense of self. It can be useful when someone feels empty, disconnected, or stuck in repetitive patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches practical skills to notice thoughts and feelings without getting pushed around by them and to act toward valued goals even when things feel difficult. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and habits and teaches concrete techniques to change them, often helping with anxiety, depression, and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Denis will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their needs and goals. That process may include trying different tools from Jungian, ACT, CBT, client-centered, or DBT approaches and adjusting based on what helps the client make steady progress.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum when schedules change.
