About Denise
With more than 40 years of clinical experience, she practices from a Gestalt perspective and specializes in trauma recovery, sexual abuse healing, PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, domestic violence, major life transitions, health-related issues, childhood wounds, and end-of-life concerns. As a trauma-informed clinician, her approach emphasizes mind-body awareness and acknowledges the close link between thoughts, emotions, and bodily experience.
Gestalt therapy is central to her method, and she integrates complementary models such as Self-Psychology, Polyvagal Theory, EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and other somatic-oriented practices to tailor care to each person’s needs. Denise holds the credentials MD and LCSW - MD indicates a medical doctor and LCSW indicates a licensed clinical social worker - and brings decades of experience to her practice in Maryland.
Integrating Body-Aware Therapies with Online Care
Gestalt therapy focuses on present-moment experience and awareness, helping people explore how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect in everyday life; it is often used for anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, and emotional regulation. EMDR is a structured approach that works with how the brain processes distressing memories and reactions, commonly used in trauma and PTSD recovery to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories. Somatic Experiencing emphasizes tracking bodily sensations and releasing physical patterns of stress or trauma, supporting healing for those who experience dissociation, chronic tension, or somatic symptoms.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Denise works with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses to ensure a good fit. Clients are invited to share feedback so the work remains aligned with their priorities.
Online therapy with Denise offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call or phone, and short check-ins or ongoing support can be arranged via live chat or text-based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to access consistent care from licensed professionals regardless of distance.
