More about Denis

Hello, and welcome.

Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I’m glad you’re here. I’m Denis, a BACP Senior Accredited Psychotherapist with over 20 years of full-time experience. I’ve supported individuals from all walks of life through anxiety, trauma, self-esteem issues, relationship challenges, burnout, and life transitions. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure of your next steps, I’m here to walk alongside you with empathy, clarity, and care.

My approach is down-to-earth, non-judgmental, and collaborative. I draw from a wide range of therapeutic tools, including CBT, DBT, EMDR, TA, mindfulness, and integrative psychotherapy. At the heart of our work will be a strong, trusting relationship, because I believe the most important part of therapy is feeling truly seen, heard, and understood.

We'll begin by understanding what’s going on for you right now, and then gently work together to explore patterns, build new strategies, and move toward a life where you feel more balanced, confident, and in control. I work flexibly, whether you prefer structured, goal-focused sessions or a space to reflect and process at your own pace.

Clients often describe me as warm, thoughtful, and calm. My job isn’t to tell you what to do, but to help you reconnect with your inner wisdom and support you in making meaningful, lasting changes.

No matter what you’re facing, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’m here to help.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
