About Denise
Denise Garrett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of professional experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. Denise aims to create a calm space where someone can talk through what feels overwhelming.
Her style is gentle and respectful. She listens first and adapts the conversation to each person. Sessions are shaped around what matters most to the client rather than a fixed checklist.
Background and approach
Denise uses client-centred therapy, which puts the person's own goals and pace at the centre of the work. That approach helps when someone needs to feel heard and understood before moving on to practical steps. She also pays attention to related concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image and the stresses of caregiving.
Denise is experienced supporting people facing addiction, domestic violence, eating difficulties and major life changes like divorce or bereavement. People who prefer a compassionate, listening-focused counsellor may find her approach useful. She encourages small, manageable steps and works collaboratively to set goals that fit everyday life.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Ways of working Denise names
Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.
Client-centred care online and practical support
Client-centred therapy places the person at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client's lead. This approach helps when someone needs to be heard and to build clarity about what they want to change.That same listening-focused way of working suits issues such as anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma and grief. It aims to create a steady space where people can explore feelings and try different ways of coping at a pace that feels right.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Denise will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adapt the way she works to fit those aims. Together they set practical steps and review progress as sessions continue.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let people connect face to face, phone sessions can be a lighter way to check in, and text or chat options suit short updates or those who prefer not to be on camera. These formats make it easier to fit counselling around work, family commitments and different time zones while keeping the focus on what helps the individual most.
