“I worked with Denise for just over 4 years and I’m forever grateful for her care and compassion during my journey. Denise had a wonderful way of being supportive, and whilst also gently challenging me on certain preconceptions or habitual ways of thinking that I had developed since childhood. I learnt to identify my feelings, and actually feel them, instead of trying to ‘logic’ my way out of it. I learnt that I am capable of standing up for myself and that it’s also okay to ask for help. Her process was to work at my pace, exploring what I wanted to talk about, whilst also carefully delving deeper into what the real issues were or what was behind certain thought-processes I had. I felt safe to express feelings I had pushed down foe years, and she supported me to process them properly. Working with her was a life-affirming experience”.

“Working with Denise for over two years was extremely significant for me. In time I came to feel we were alongside each other in an exploration of my world and who I am. Firm in her challenges but also quietly loving, she helped me to question narratives I assumed to be true and supported me to find new ways through where I'd been stuck - often simply by accepting where I was. Her proactive and engaging style helped me to feel we were together in the process and her ability to hold boundaries made the space feel safe and containing”.

“I sought out therapy during a very difficult time, when I was struggling with bereavement, relationship issues, and other related issues. I needed help to understand how I was feeling and why.  I found that with Denise. She helped me develop my own language to describe my experiences to myself, and to others.  That allowed me to recognise, accept, and trust my own experience, to make decisions based on it and to accept the consequences of those choices.  After around 4 years working together, for various personal and practical reasons it felt natural point to stop, which I did as a stronger and happier person”.

“Denise is a very professional, warm and insightful counsellor. The space she holds adhered to professional boundaries and created a very safe space for me, which was hugely helpful in me being able to open up and to experience my emotions. I am and will always be extremely grateful to Denise and our sessions, for enabling me to have a better understanding of myself, to be more confident and to have love for myself. It wasn't always easy but Denise's patience, skill, commitment and empathy helped me grow into a better version of me. Thank you”.

“El tiempo con Denise me ayudó a poner límites, comunicarme mejor y decidir lo que quiero. Eso transformó mis relaciones y muchos otros aspectos de mi vida”.
