Dr. Venn has been providing psychological services since 1971. He was a military officer, served on the staff of a Fortune 500 Corporation, served on the staffs or faculties of seven universities, was employed by three State agencies, owned his own practice for 23 years, held a variety of State and federal contracts, and retired from two State governments. He is licensed to practice Psychology in four States and is board-certified by ABPP in clinical psychology and forensic psychology. He has treated thousands of patients. His book, Crime and Psychology: Foundations of Forensic Practice, was published by Routledge in 2024.
Dr. Venn began his career in Veterans Hospitals during the Vietnam War. He has five decades of experience in helping people adjust to severe stress including the stress of combat. He has studied many therapies including psychoanalysis, family systems therapy, Internal Family Systems therapy, hypnosis, mindfulness, and cognitive behavior therapy.
Recovery is about discovering - or rediscovering - the beauty of your life. There is no single therapy that will suit all people. For this reason I have studied many therapies, and I will work together with you to find the therapy that suits you best. People can overcome their problems. I have seen thousands of people get better in 53 years of practice.

People have a calm and peaceful center to their personalities, surrounding which a variety of parts may be in turmoil and may be in conflict with each other. By identifying your parts and getting to know them - and by getting to know your calm and peaceful center - you will find that things "fall into place" so that you can take control of your parts instead of letting them take control of you.

My preferred form of therapy is Internal Family Systems. However, I have studied and learned to practice a number of other therapies as well. Not all clients are receptive to discussions of "parts" and "centers," so I am able to utilize other therapies to help clients with where they are now. You and I will work together to find the therapy that is best suited to your needs.
