About Denise

Denise King is a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) practicing in Tennessee. She has 10 years of professional experience helping people who are facing addiction, relationship struggles, trauma, low self-esteem, depression, and motivation challenges. She also supports people dealing with parenting stress, grief, intimacy concerns, eating issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, career questions, and life transitions.

Denise takes a strengths-focused stance. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and helps them build on what already works. Sessions are centered on practical steps and clear goals. The work is collaborative and grounded in real-world change rather than jargon.

In sessions she listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people try new ways of responding. She offers coaching-style support for motivation and goal setting alongside therapeutic work for trauma, grief, and mood concerns. Denise aims to make steps feel manageable and realistic for day-to-day life.

Her approach is direct but warm. She encourages gradual progress and celebrates small wins along the way. People often come to address a single problem and leave with better tools for other parts of life.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online therapy

Denise draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in clear, practical ways. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns and testing small behavior changes; this helps with issues like addiction, motivation, and relationship habits by turning insight into action. Another approach centers on managing mood and coping skills for depression, bipolar disorder, and seasonal affective disorder; it emphasizes routine building, activity planning, and tracking what improves day-to-day functioning.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. Goals and approaches are reviewed and adjusted over time so the work stays practical and relevant.

If you are considering online work, confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering flexible scheduling around work or parenting demands. Talk with the therapist during the intake process about how you want to structure sessions so they fit into your routine.
