Online support options
Approach and online care that fit your life
Denise often combines client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered therapy means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead, helping people set priorities and shape the work around what matters to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing new ways of thinking, and practicing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or lift mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Denise works collaboratively to decide which methods suit a person's goals and circumstances. She will talk through options, try tools in session, and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into a busy life. Video allows face-to-face conversation for deeper discussion, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or to allow a shorter check-in, and messaging formats make it simple to send updates or practice skills between meetings. These options help people get consistent support without long commutes and let therapists focus on practical skills and steady progress.
