About me

I have worked in various environments, which have included community mental health and medical settings. Throughout my time as a clinician, I have provided services to individuals, couples and families. My cultural background as well as my personal experiences have given me an awareness and a sensitivity to the vast cultural and social identities that exist. I am committed to leading with warmth, empathy, and a fundamental curiosity that reserves assumptions.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During sessions I strive to cultivate an environment that welcomes clients to share their experiences and perspectives. Clients are encouraged to identify their motivations and discuss any relevant life stressors or concerns that they may be experiencing.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My deliberate goal to become a therapist was fueled by my genuine interest in being of service to others and understanding how human complexities impact thoughts and behaviors. I wholeheartedly utilize a client-centered approach that is collaborative and I customize the therapy to my client’s specific goals and needs.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Working with clients who are actively engaged significantly increases the therapy experience and therapeutic relationship. During sessions, I encourage clients to provide updates regarding their emotional and behavioral experiences. I will assist clients to challenge unhelpful thoughts while also highlighting strengths.

Denisia was true genuine warm and she listened and was considerate. If I had a thought of something I had wanted to share she would pause and allow me to finish my thought which reminded me to do the same.
