Ken Verni

Dr. Ken Verni is a compassionate psychologist who brings a careful, curious, and empathetic attention to his clients and their present circumstances, often marking the first step in their journeys of healing and self-discovery. In his sessions, he fosters a non-judging, non-blaming attitude of curiosity, encouraging clients to explore their past and current experiences, relationships, and the insights that emerge during therapy. His approach is deeply rooted in respect for both the known and the unknown factors that shape individual identities and influence emotions and behaviors. With extensive training in psychodynamic psychotherapy, he employs a relational methodology, using the exploration of present and past relationships, as well as the therapeutic relationship itself, as pathways to understanding and addressing the challenges clients face. Dr. Verni also integrates mindfulness practices into his work, recognizing the significance of cultivating a careful awareness of moment-to-moment sensory experiences, thought patterns, and interpersonal dynamics, which can foster a sense of stability, belonging, and overall well-being in one's life. He is experienced in working with adolescents, adults, individuals, couples, and groups, making him well-equipped to address various issues, including depression, anxiety, and relationship concerns.
