Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Denise frequently draws on client-centered therapy, which centers the work on the individual’s priorities and experiences and creates space for clients to lead the conversation about what matters most to them. This approach supports issues like low self-esteem, life transitions, and the emotional impact of loss. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress, offering practical skills to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. Motivational Interviewing helps clients explore ambivalence and find their own reasons for change, which can be useful for building motivation and setting achievable goals.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Denise collaborates with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions so that the work feels relevant and achievable.
Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging expand flexibility and access to care. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, accommodate mobility or caregiving responsibilities, and maintain continuity of support with licensed professionals and therapists regardless of location.
