About Denise
I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with 33 years of experience specializing in the treatment of mood and psychiatric disorders, including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and PTSD. My goal is to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered in their healing journey. I value an individualized approach to care, recognizing that no two people experience life the same way. With decades of clinical knowledge and dedication to mental health, I am committed to helping clients navigate challenges and discover tools to improve their overall well-being.
I earned my Master’s in Advanced Practice Nursing from Walden University, where I strengthened my ability to combine evidence-based practices with compassionate care. My approach integrates talk therapy and medication management, tailored to the unique needs of each client, ensuring that treatment aligns with their goals and experiences.
I believe that meaningful progress begins with partnership. Whether you are seeking treatment, support, or guidance, I will walk alongside you in developing the tools needed to face life’s obstacles. Together, we can create positive and lasting change, helping you to feel more balanced, resilient, and hopeful in your journey forward.
"As someone who has faced personal trauma and loss, I possess a deep and genuine understanding of the profound effects that painful life experiences can have on us. "
Get to know Denise
What types of clients do you work best with?
I perform best when I work with individuals who genuinely seek assistance.
What's one thing you wish all clients knew about therapy, mental health, or the healing process?
Medications may not provide instant relief but remember that true healing requires patience and time.
What can clients expect in their first session with you and in the early stages of therapy
want to get to know you better. During your first session, I will conduct an initial assessment by asking questions about your background, what led you to seek care, your mental health history, and your treatment goals.
How do you tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs?
I tailor treatment using information from the initial assessment, incorporating the client's feedback, background, preferences, strengths, and weaknesses to collaboratively set goals and select the appropriate treatment method
