How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience. Online sessions using this approach concentrate on building a respectful working relationship and identifying what the client wants to change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In remote sessions CBT is used to teach practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thought patterns, with exercises to practice between meetings.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Denise will discuss goals and preferences and then suggest which combination of methods to try. She adjusts the plan as work progresses so therapy stays relevant to the person's needs.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, remote work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals often use these benefits to keep therapy consistent with everyday life routines.
