About me
Hello: Many years ago in private practice I developed an eight week program for couples who were having serious relationship issues and were considering divorce. I gathered many communication techniques and skill-building exercises that helped individuals better understand and consider the experience of the other person. Along with self-discovery and reviews of values I helped couples make informed decisions about their future as a couple. My orientation is that the relationship is my client and the individuals take responsibility for themselves. We had many successful outcomes.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Terence "Terry" Rooney. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
Extremely skilled and professional. Learning a lot from him.
Love Dr.Rooney
Dr. Rooney is patient, calm, and very helpful. He has helped us talk through big issues and communicate better.
Greatest therapist ever really make you feel hard and gives helpful input
Dr. Rooney is extremely available and clearly wants to help us be better for each other - we’re indebted to him for being there in the hardest times for us
Very knowledgeable
Dr. Rooney (Terry) is incredibly skilled. He helped my partner and I navigate resentment and disconnection by giving us skills and perspective, and now I feel much closer to my partner than I have in ages. We are so grateful.
Dr. Rooney is amazing! He has a great personality. He is wise and understanding and is determined to get you to reach your goals and move on when necessary. I am grateful for his expertise and glad that my partner and I were able to work with him.
There are no words to describe how grateful we are for Dr. Rooney’s expertise and professionalism and all the kindness, tools, help and support he has provided us with and continues to provide. He has saved and strengthened our relationship and helped us build our little family. He’s also an amazing kind human and we’re so lucky to have him as our therapist.
Great therapist
He’s great and being very helpful.
Terry is extremely easy to communicate with, he understands our concerns. He can easily break down what we're trying to communicate to our partner in ways that we ourselves could have never done
In just a few weeks of having sessions with Terry we've learned new skills and our situation is improving.
Would highly recommend him
Very attentive
Terry is the best! He provides a ton of insight and has really helped our relationship. I would definitely recommend him!
My partner and I started seeing Dr. Rooney a few months ago. He has always approached each situation with a great attitude, and asks both of us how we feel in each situation. He has helped us overcome our challenges, and has even shared a few stories about himself, which made him more personable. He feels like a friend with great advice!
Terry is beyond the best therapist we have ever seen
Dr Rooney has some good tools
Excellent therapist. Dedicated to clients. Very insightful and competent. Highly recommend.
Dr. Rooney is a great therapist and listens well and has great constructive advice.
We worked with Dr. Rooney for just a couple of months but in that short time, we’ve been able to improve our communication as a couple.
We came to him with a goal in mind and he helped us achieve that goal. He helped us get there by connecting with us, creating a neutral safe space, giving us guidance on what we could do better and explanations on how our brains work.
We had a lot of “aha!” moments during our sessions with him.
We highly recommend checking in with Dr. Rooney. We have had other therapists before, but he’s been the only one to make a true positive difference.
Excellent
Dr Rooney is amazing therapist full of kindness, support and patience. He has strong expertise in marriage counselling and addiction counselling. Cannot recommend him enough.
Dr Rooney has helped us tremendously! My husband and I have seen numerous couples therapists and for once we can leave a session feeling better than we came into it. No yelling or arguing, just open communication.
Dr. Rooney has been great. The active listening exercises have really helped us work through our arguments and we hope to implement it for better communication.
Dr Rooney has been great in facilitating our concerns and providing insight into resolving them. Thank you!
Dr. Rooney has been very helpful to us as a couple and has facilitated communication and problem-solving with methods that we continue to use daily.
Dr. Rooney was a pleasure to work with. He is very easy to talk to, knowledgeable and experienced. He knows what he's talking about! Through our sessions he guided myself and my partner to where we want to be in our relationship. Big thanks Dr!
Dr. Terry is a great counselor. He always listened and focused on our needs and what we needed to talk about. He is also easy going and easy to talk to. He has years of practical experience to back up his methods.
