More about Denise

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (MBACP) with 4 years of professional work experience.

I run a successful private practice where I see clients in person, via online services or on telephone calls. I gained much of my experience though training and working with a local Mental Health charity where I was a volunteer counselor.

My clients come from all walks of life and different cultures and backgrounds. I strive to create an open and safe environment where my clients thoughts, feelings and emotions can be shared without fear of judgment. Clients may feel anxious or upset as they begin to talk but I put them at their ease and create a relaxed atmosphere where they feels safe.

I use Person Centred Therapy (PCT) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and a combination of both therapies. Through experience I have found that people have a desire to talk about the issues that are troubling them. Using PCT the client is able to offload their worries, fears and experiences I listen in an empathetic and non judgement manner. I will ask questions in order to gain clarification of points which may be unclear. Later I will begin to ask challenging questions about why the client feels the way they do. The aim is to explore how the client feels about themselves and confront any negative beliefs the client may be thinking about themselves. I will use CBT to enable the client to gain new skills in order to challenge their own negative thoughts and work towards viewing their issues in more positive ways.

Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take a great deal of courage so well done for getting started!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
