Great to meet you!

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, big 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.

My approach to therapy

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 you can expect from me

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 offer in person appointments Wednesday and Fridays. On line telehealth on Mondays.
