Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, then building skills to respond differently - often useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with day-to-day pressures.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds structured tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and relationship effectiveness. It can be especially helpful when emotions feel intense or when conflict and overwhelm make it hard to stay grounded.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape trust, connection, and self-worth. This lens can support work around family conflict, relationship strain, and the impact of loss or trauma on closeness with others.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Denise collaborates with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before, then tailors the work to fit their needs over time.
