Hi, I'm Denise, welcome to my practice. I support individuals who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck in the same patterns, struggling in your relationships, or just tired of being so hard on yourself. Maybe you're dealing with stress, divorce, marital struggles, career problems, transitional life changes, or things from your past that still affect you today. If any of that sounds familiar, you're in the right place. I help people feel more confident, communicate better, worry less, and start showing up for themselves in a healthier way.
With over 25 years of experience, I use a mix of practical, supportive approaches that meet you where you are. One of the tools I use is EMDR, which helps people let go of painful experiences and feel more at ease. I also work with couples to improve connection and communication in a down-to-earth way.
What matters most in therapy is feeling comfortable and supported. People tell me they feel heard, cared for, and able to be themselves when we work together. I’m warm, honest, and not afraid to bring a little humor into the process when it helps. If you’re ready to feel better and move forward, I’m here when you’re ready to start.

I use a personal direct yet supportive approach. EMDR is a modality that helps quickly to rid feelings of "not good enough", "worthiness", " low self esteem", and replacing them with a clearer more productive and positive sense of yourself. You deserve to feel your own self love and value. That radiates out to how others see you too.
