Enough is enough.
Your teen or young adult needs you to help them make a change.
My services are for you if:
You are a parent or guardian of a child ages 13-24 who may be exhibiting signs of depression or anxiety. Your teen or young adult may be self-harming, have suicidal thoughts, have experienced frequent hospitalizations, or need a step down from partial hospitalization.
You are a teen or young adult needing help to manage overwhelming emotions and need help coping with everyday stressors.
Healing Hearts, Healthy Minds provides comprehensive, evidence-based treatment interventions including EMDR, dialectical behavioral therapy and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy in an empathetic, compassionate, and nonjudgemental environment.
These interventions have been proven effective in treating teens and young adults who struggle with emotional distress and trauma. Parental involvement is key to a teen’s healing process, so the treatment process always includes parental involvement.
Denise provides assistance to parents as well. Parent coaching is available as well as parent support groups. Watch for more information.
Step out of chaos and into peace.

DBT, EMDR, and TF-CBT are evidence-based interventions proven to be effective in treating symptoms associated with trauma.
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
This program provides skills for both child and parent to reduce symptoms that have resulted from trauma. This is best suited for those with a diagnosis of PTSD.
Parent Coaching
Parenting teens and young adults with severe emotional problems can be a challenge. Sometimes parents and caregivers are looking for support when it comes to parenting that is not therapy related.
Please note that the parent coaching I offer is not meant to fulfill court ordered parenting classes.
Parent coaching is not therapy and is not covered by insurance.
