Children, Teens & Adults

At Denney Family Therapy in San Clemente, we provide trauma-informed therapy for children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, self-harming behaviors, and major life transitions. Our work centers on helping clients build emotional safety, resilience, and self-understanding while deepening connection within their families and communities.

Ryan works with children as young as 8 years old, helping them strengthen emotional regulation, confidence, and communication skills. Jennie works with preteens, teens, and adults (ages 12 and up), supporting those facing grief, trauma recovery, self-harm healing, identity shifts, and relational stress.

We offer care across the lifespan, using attachment-based and experiential approaches that integrate EMDR, parts work, and mindfulness techniques to support nervous system regulation and long-term healing. For clients who find comfort in movement and nature, we also offer Walking Therapy in San Clemente—an opportunity to process emotions outdoors in a calm, grounded environment.

Whether you’re seeking therapy for your child, navigating a loss, or ready to create new patterns as an adult, we’ll meet you where you are and move at a pace that feels safe and supportive.
