Denise is kind, caring, and compassionate. She’s has helped me immensely with things I needed help with. I’m very grateful.
Written on Feb 05, 2024 after therapy with Denise for 1 month on issues concerning anger management, and coaching
Denise helped me walk myself through my current predicaments that have been somewhat overwhelming this past handful of months. She's provided resources that I am able to use outside of my BetterHelp subscription, a benefit I wasn't expecting at the onset of my one month trial. I have better clarity on my life and it's thanks to her showing up for me, even if it was only a few times together on a Zoom call. Thank you Denise, for all you do.
