Therapeutic approaches and flexible online care

Denise integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on meeting clients where they are and supporting self-directed growth by creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space to explore feelings and values. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Dialectical behavior therapy combines acceptance and change strategies and provides practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can aid those struggling with intense emotions or interpersonal conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Denise works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions are tailored and adjusted over time as progress and priorities evolve.

Online therapy with Denise offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter interactions are possible through live chat or text-based messaging. This range of options helps make ongoing care more accessible for people with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or limited local options, while allowing therapists and licensed professionals to sustain consistent, goal-focused work with clients.
