I believe that therapy works best as a process of uncovering our truest selves. Oftentimes life hands us burdens of stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and pain that weigh us down and make it difficult to encounter the world in ways that we would like. I believe each individual has a unique and important story to tell, and I find joy in walking alongside clients as they begin to peel away the layers of life’s burdens to uncover the light of their authentic selves. I strive to offer a safe space for clients to author a personal narrative that feels genuine, and I operate from a gentle, trauma-informed, strengths-based perspective.

Life throws all of us (as humans), many difficult situations that at times are hard to navigate without extra support. I empower individuals and families to create healthier coping skills.

My approach encompasses a variety of clinical interventions, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, solution-focused therapy and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy to name a few. I consider myself an Integrative and Holistic therapist.

When confronted by a triggering event or stuck by life’s challenges, it can be easy to feel consumed by anxiety, depression, or other mental health concerns. However, these challenges also provide you with an opportunity for growth. It takes a lot of courage to recognize your desire to seek change. By joining you where you are on this part of your journey, I will encourage you to become an active participant in your healing process.

In life, all of us can use help along the way. There are many reasons to start therapy but ultimately, we all want to feel better and live happier lives! At any point, we can all struggle with stress, anxiety, sadness or have a difficult time managing certain aspects of our lives. We can also feel stuck in patterns or behaviors that make it hard to live the life we want to live and it can feel overwhelming to figure out what to do next.

Hello! I’m Dennise and I LOVE therapy newbies. It’s because working with women reaching out for help for the first time is my absolute specialty. I know exactly how this woman is feeling (very vulnerable, very nervous, and very scared) and how brave she doesn’t know she is just yet. Brave and strong, for sticking out her feelings and then deciding to create lasting change in her life.
