Reclaim Your Identity.

Rebuild Your Life.

therapy for women who have lost themselves in anxious attachment and people-pleasing and are ready to come home to who they truly are.

My approach

I help women reclaim their identity and build a life aligned with what they truly want. Using EMDR, parts work, and somatic practices, we’ll process the childhood wounds driving your patterns and reconnect you with your authentic self. We move at your pace — wherever you are in your journey, you’re welcome here.

Do you keep losing yourself in relationships? People-pleasing, anxious attachment, and years of putting everyone else first can leave you disconnected from who you actually are. I am here to help you understand these patterns and reconnect with your authentic self.

Taking the first step toward therapy can feel scary especially when you’ve spent years putting everyone else first. But you deserve to know who you are again. If you’re ready to stop disappearing and start living, therapy is a great start.

A little bit about me

I'm Denise, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida, specializing in helping women who have spent years putting everyone else first, and are finally ready to come back to themselves.

I work with women across Florida via telehealth, and I offer sessions in both English and Spanish.

My approach is rooted in EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and somatic practices, modalities that go beyond talk therapy to help you process the deeper patterns driving your relationships and reconnect with who you truly are.

I hold a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Florida, an MBA from Georgia State University, and a law degree from Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana — a background that shaped my analytical mind, but it was therapy that finally led me home to myself and to this work.

I am a proud member of the Florida Mental Health Counselors Association and committed to cultivating a space of diversity, inclusion, and connectedness.

“I wish I could show you the astonishing light of your own being.”

My Services

Individual Therapy — $170

You've spent years showing up for everyone else. This is your space to finally show up for yourself. In our work together we'll untangle the patterns keeping you stuck — people-pleasing, anxious attachment, losing yourself in relationships — and help you reconnect with who you truly are. Sessions are available via secure telehealth across Florida in English or Spanish.

EMDR Intensive — $175/hour | 6 hours over three days

You're ready to go deep, immerse yourself, and break free from the patterns that have followed you for years. EMDR Intensives are designed for the busy, go-getting woman who can't always commit to weekly sessions but is serious about doing the work. In three focused days we'll target the roots of your anxiety, people-pleasing, and attachment wounds.

Couples Sessions — $200

Already doing your individual work and want your partner to understand your journey? I can support that conversation. Couples sessions are available as a complement to your individual therapy — keeping you at the center of the work while creating space for your partner to show up for you differently.
