Hi there, I'm Denisha! I am a licensed professional counselor with a Master's in Professional Counseling from Argosy University and a Bachelor's from Stephen F. Austin State University. I am dedicated to helping people navigate life's challenges and uncover their strengths. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to thrive. With a compassionate and personalized approach, I tailor each session to your unique needs. My approach I work together with you to help you feel empowered, supported, and capable of handling life's challenges. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to explore and reframe unhelpful thoughts, Solution-Focused Therapy to focus on practical steps toward your goals, and Child-Parent Psychotherapy to strengthen relationships and address early childhood experiences. I also use Polyvagal Therapy to help you understand and regulate your nervous system, creating safety and balance. Every session is personalized to meet your unique needs, aiming to help you feel heard, understood, and equipped to thrive. My focus I work with adolescents, teens, and young adults, supporting them through challenges such as anxiety, trauma/PTSD, stress, and other struggles during these pivotal stages of life. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where clients feel understood and empowered to build tools and resilience to overcome obstacles and achieve meaningful growth. My communication style My style is warm, open, and supportive. I create a comfortable, non-judgmental space where you can safely share your thoughts and experiences. Working with me feels like a partnership, exploring challenges together and finding ways to move forward. I prioritize truly listening and offering support that helps you feel understood, empowered, and confident as we work toward your goals. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to becoming a therapist began with my passion for helping others.
