Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. Mindfulness skills and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are also part of her work. Those methods help people tolerate strong emotions, stay present, and build healthier ways to respond.
Motivational Interviewing is used when someone wants help finding motivation for change. Denise works with a wide range of concerns, including grief, trauma and abuse, parenting worries, career pressures, and issues around identity and sexuality. She also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, and the challenges of aging.
Sessions focus on practical changes and clearer communication. Denise helps clients set realistic goals, practice new skills, and notice progress. She is LGBTQ+ affirming and centers the person in the middle of each plan.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Denise draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the focus on each person's goals and values. That means sessions center on listening, reflecting what matters to the client, and shaping the work around their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify thinking patterns that fuel anxiety or depression and to test new behaviors that can change those patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the process and Denise works with clients to decide what fits best. She will talk through options, try techniques, and adjust plans based on how someone responds. That collaborative process helps tailor tools to a person's specific goals and daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls are useful for richer conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a work break, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options aim to make it easier to meet regularly and use therapeutic tools in everyday moments.
