Evidence-based approaches and online care
Denise often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, or ADHD-related struggles. Mindfulness Therapy helps people develop attention and calm through simple awareness practices and can reduce reactivity in stressful moments.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Denise will talk with each person about their goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust strategies based on what works. She aims to set short-term goals and practical tasks so progress is clear and felt between sessions.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets therapists and clients use visual cues for pacing and teaching new skills. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Text and chat provide ongoing access for brief support and homework check-ins. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and maintain continuity across weeks or during transitions.
