Therapy for healing, connection, and

meaningful change .

Meet Lena Dunning

Life is complex, and change rarely happens in isolation.

At A Work in Process, therapy is a space for honest reflection, skill-building, and emotional processing—grounded in the belief that people are stronger than they think and that healing happens best in connection with others.

My approach balances accepting reality and healing wounds when possible. I work collaboratively with clients to understand patterns, tolerate discomfort, and build skills that support growth both inside and outside the therapy session.

Therapy here is not about fixing you—it’s about helping you access what already exists within you while recognizing that support matters.

Individual Therapy

Individual support varies greatly depending on client need. What brings you to therapy? Why now? How do you best receive support? The answers to these questions establish a starting point to the process.

Group Therapy

Group therapy offers connection, shared understanding, and growth through relationships with others. Healing relational pain can often best be experienced when in healthy relationships. Group work provides a safe place to learn, practice, and feel less alone.

DBT Skills Groups

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills sessions focus on teaching Mindfulness, Distress Tolerance, Emotion Regulation, and Interpersonal Effectiveness–accepting the current moment while supporting change. Lena is certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.

Couples Therapy

Couples therapy helps partners understand relational patterns, improve communication, and strengthen emotional connection. This work is conducted through the lens of The Gottman Method. Lena has completed Level 1 Training in The Gottman Method

Therapy is only one part of the process. When helpful, I encourage clients to explore additional resources, community support, and practices that align with their healing.
