Denise has been so great for me and my mental health. I look forward to every session I have with her. She listens and relates to me! She is awesome.

This is my first time ever talking to a counselor (about a month of sessions now), so I was a little apprehensive and scared of what to expect. After one session with Denise I felt like the world was off of my shoulders. She is so wonderful and does such a great job of making you feel warm and welcome in her presence even if it’s just over the phone. She makes you feel like you can breathe and talk to her and tell her anything without any judgment or fear of sounding ridiculous. She is so understanding and so polite. She has suggested great exercises and tips on how to decompress and get back on the right path when I am feeling depressed, overwhelmed, worthless, and/or anxious. My only regret is that I did not start having sessions with her sooner, because she really is helping me a lot and I appreciate her so much. The best trait about her is she never tries to insert her input before you explain what you have to say first. She’s so good at letting you get it all out there and saying why you need to and absorbing your words before offering her perspective and advice. She is just so respectful and compassionate. It feels so great to have someone who really listens to me and genuinely cares about me and my mental health. Even between sessions she will shoot me a quick message here or there checking in on me or just saying hi and asking how the progress is coming along. Denise is absolutely wonderful. Just a truly wonderful woman.

Denise has been absolutely amazing thus far! She's diligent and great at listening, but also offers sound advice and helps talk through difficult situations. I couldn't recommend her more!

I haven't been working with Denise long, but she's already been great! I appreciate that she's been meeting me where I am, so to speak. Excited to work with her more!
