Hi there, I'm Denise!
As a first-generation Mexican American woman, wife, mother, and LCSW, I understand how culture, relationships, and life experiences shape who we are. I believe everyone possesses inner resilience, even when pain or self-doubt make it difficult to see. My goal is to help you reconnect with that strength and create meaningful, lasting change.
My focus
I work with adults and couples navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, marital challenges, life transitions, postpartum adjustment, self-esteem, and spiritual concerns. I provide culturally responsive care and welcome clients who wish to integrate their Christian faith into therapy while working toward healing and lasting growth.
My approach
My approach to therapy is eclectic, collaborative, and direct because healing is not one-size-fits-all. I tailor each session using CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Gestalt Therapy, Humanistic Therapy, and Relapse Prevention. Together, we'll build practical skills, deepen self-awareness, and reconnect with the strength within you.
