About Denise
Denise Schwartz is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) practicing in Nevada. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, and ADHD. Denise aims to keep sessions practical and centered on what matters in everyday life.
Her style blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) with psychodynamic and solution-focused ideas. That means Denise will help identify patterns of thinking and behavior, teach skills for emotion regulation, and set short-term goals you can try between sessions.
Background and approach
She favors straightforward tools that fit into a busy schedule. Denise pays attention to how identity and life roles affect wellbeing. She works with people navigating LGBT issues, gender dysphoria, and questions about life purpose.
She also brings experience supporting those dealing with caregiver stress, first responder and veteran-related concerns, and mood differences. Sessions often focus on improving communication, managing impulsivity, and handling guilt or shame. When ADHD affects focus or motivation, she helps clients develop realistic strategies that match daily routines.
Therapy is collaborative and solution-oriented, with room to talk about deeper patterns that show up over time. With ten years of experience, Denise aims to create an affirming space where clients feel heard and can try new approaches. She offers multiple online formats to fit different needs and helps people build practical habits that support longer-term change.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small committed steps toward those values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and for making changes when motivation or focus is a challenge.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and reducing impulsive reactions. Those skills can help with mood swings, impulsivity, communication struggles, and everyday stressors.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Denise will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that match those needs. She treats the process as collaborative and adjusts strategies based on what helps in real life.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week. Video calls let you see visual cues and have a fuller conversation. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or keeping momentum between longer sessions. These options provide flexibility so people can use therapy in ways that suit their routines and comfort levels.
