New to Grow
Hello, my name is Denise Wray. I have been a counselor/ consultant/facilitator for the past 30. After my military service I began my practice doing child and adolescent counseling and parent education. Soon thereafter I became licensed in couples counseling. This led to my performing family therapy as well. In the next few years, I became certified in addictions. I have worked with individuals, couples, families, groups, and communities.
During the first session, I want to put the client at ease and share who I am and how the clinical process works.
I’m a unique provider because I don’t use a cookie cutter approach. I use the methodology that suits the needs of the client.
My ideal client is anyone who wants to work on having a better life. The ideal client is willing to commit to the wholistic therapy process. The ideal client demonstrates a desire to change and therefore is trusting the clinical experience. The ideal client is brave enough to share at their level of comfortability especially when difficult topics present themselves.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have used this method for over 25 years with a high degree of success.
