Great to meet you!

Would you describe yourself as worried, afraid or stressed out? Empty, lonely, or heartbroken? Angry, frustrated, or mad at the world? Guilty, shameful, or embarrassed? Exhausted, unmotivated, or tired of pretending? Wondering why everyone else seems happier than you are? If you can identify with any of these situations, I can help you refresh your soul in therapy. Hi, I'm Denise.

A bit about my approach to therapy

It's an honor to build fruitful therapeutic relationships with individuals, couples, families, and groups looking to make changes in their lives to find joy, balance, and peace. I can help you discover unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, break free from your past, and become the person you want to be. Your strength and courage to reach out for help is admirable, and I look forward to talking with you.

What you can expect from our first session

My passion is to use compassionate connection, expert insights, and a calming demeanor to help you on your personal quest toward a place of peace and purpose.
