About Dennis
Dennis Robles is a California-licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 38 years of clinical experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and life transitions. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. He notes guilt and shame as an area he addresses alongside attachment and communication struggles.
He begins by listening to what feels most pressing and practical. Conversations focus on specific situations, patterns that keep problems going, and small changes clients can try between sessions. Dennis adapts his approach to each person's pace and goals rather than using a single fixed method.
Across his career he has supported people through divorce and separation, workplace stress, mood difficulties, and questions about life purpose. He pays attention to how control issues and attachment patterns shape relationships and everyday choices. When trauma or abuse is part of the picture, he works with clients to stabilize difficult reactions before addressing harder memories.
Dennis keeps sessions straightforward and goal oriented. He aims to help people notice patterns, practice new ways of communicating, and build skills to manage anxiety and stress. He also addresses guilt and shame by naming where those feelings come from and testing whether they still fit today.

Approach to therapy online and how it’s offered
Dennis uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address relationship and emotional concerns. One common approach focuses on identifying recurring interaction patterns between people and teaching clearer communication and boundary skills; this helps with attachment issues, relationship strain, and communication problems. Another approach targets stress and anxiety by teaching practical coping skills and short exercises to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning; this is useful for workplace stress, mood challenges, and life transitions.Working out the best approach is a collaborative process. He will review your goals and what has or hasn’t worked before, and together you’ll try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Adjustments are expected as the work progresses rather than fixed from the start.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make scheduling easier and let sessions fit between work, family, and other commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when full sessions aren’t needed, or conversations by audio when video is difficult. Licensed professionals, including therapists, often find online sessions help keep momentum without requiring travel or long breaks from the day.
