About Denise…

I find great satisfaction in helping individuals and couples with relationship challenges. Feeling connected, understood, and validated by a partner can be life changing, especially for those who didn’t feel “seen” in their family of origin. So often I find that defenses get in the way of connection, leaving individuals feeling frustrated, alone and deeply disappointed. I found Imago to be extremely helpful in my own relationship and that is part of what motivated me to get trained and certified in it.
With individuals, Imago can help highlight patterns that keep one from finding and sustaining a healthy relationship. Change can happen if you’re willing to work at it and I’d love to help.
