Approaches Used in Online Therapy with Denise Jensen
Denise often draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on creating a respectful, empathetic space where the client’s perspective guides the pace and goals of work - this approach can be especially useful for issues like low self-esteem, grief, and adjusting to life changes.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based approach that helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns - CBT is commonly applied to anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with sleep or daily functioning.
Motivational Interviewing is another tool she employs to help people explore ambivalence and find internal motivation for making changes, which can support efforts related to career shifts, parenting goals, or personal habits.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Denise works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy with Denise is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit different schedules and life demands.
