You deserve to feel better —
not just get by.
Whatever brought you here, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
I work with people who are ready to move forward — not just cope, but genuinely grow. Every person is treated as the unique, complex individual they are. We go at your pace. We do the work that matters to you.
WHO I HELP
You might be here because of..
ANXIETY
Worry has become your constant companion.
Relationship, work stress, pressure, uncertainty — whatever form it takes, anxiety is exhausting. And it is treatable.
DEPRESSION
You’ve lost the version of yourself you used to know.
Feeling flat, disconnected, or unable to find joy in things that once mattered. Depression is more
than sadness — healing is possible
TRAUMA
Something from your past is affecting your present.
I specialize in evidence-based trauma treatment, including EMDR, to help people heal from past experiences
ABOUT DENISE
A therapist who has been in the room for some of life’s hardest moments.
I have spent over ten years working alongside people through some of the most difficult chapters of their lives — from veterans carrying the weight of PTSD, to people rebuilding after grief, to those
simply ready to live better.

MY APPROACH
Trauma informed person centered — tailored to you.
No two people arrive at therapy the same way. I draw from a range of evidence-based methods, building a care plan that fits your needs, your history, and your goals.
EMDRIA Certified EMDR Therapist
My signature specialty is Somatic and Attachment-Focused (S.A.F.E.) EMDR — evidence-based methods for trauma recovery available. Certification requires advanced training, demonstrated competency, and ongoing education. Your sessions are between you and me — no AI tools, no automated notes, no third-party processing of what you share.

TELEHEALTH
Real therapy. No commute.
All sessions are conducted via secure video — which means you get the full benefit of one-on-one therapy from wherever you’re most comfortable. For many clients, being in their own space actually makes it easier to open up and do meaningful work.
No travel required. Attend from home, your car, your office — wherever you feel most at ease. No waiting rooms, no commute.
Same quality of care. Research consistently shows telehealth therapy outcomes are comparable to in-person for anxiety, depression, and trauma. Being in your own space can actually make it easier to open up.
More flexible scheduling. Easier to fit sessions into a busy life when you don’t need to factor in drive time.
