About Dennise

The healing/counseling gifts I offer were originally developed as a result of my own seeking to heal childhood challenges and trauma.  Living with emotional pain powerfully motivated me to find my way out of suffering and into the fresh air of healing that brings more peace, joy, and loving kindness toward self and others.  I felt deep within my heart that if I could bring healing to my wounds, then I could assist others to do the same for theirs.  I always represent myself as a living example of  healing that is possible:  mentally, emotionally, psychologically, spiritually and physically!  It’s important to me to “walk my talk”

So with that vision, hope, and determination, I became a psychotherapist at 23 years old.  I have been in private practice for over 40 years, working with individuals, couples, families and groups, using both a psychodynamic approach, teaching people to re-program their mental belief systems (neuroplasticity),  and when desired, using the individual’s spiritual orientation.

What I have cultivated over the years that will help  bring healing and recovery into your work is:  1) an Extensive array of great trainings and up to date tools/techniques, interwoven with my own heart-based innovative approaches. 2) The healing, growth and empathy that emerged from having gone through my own therapy and healing process. 3) Sharing the deep learning that has come from Life Experience.  Learning to navigate and heal the emotional/mental challenges within.  As well as, the “outer realities” like relationship, parenthood, divorce, single parenting, remarriage and all the other practical nuts and bolts of living.

It is my joy to help you return to your true Self
