Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Denise draws on several evidence-informed approaches to guide online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood-related difficulties; it is practical and skills-oriented. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and build psychological flexibility by learning acceptance and mindful action strategies, which can be useful for stress, chronic worries, and life transitions. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method Denise is certified to provide and is used to help process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Denise works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best with their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review options and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy with Denise is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access consistent care without travel, helping clients maintain momentum and integrate therapeutic work into daily life.
