About Denise

LCPC Denise Schwartz is a Nevada licensed clinical professional counselor with 10 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem issues, ADHD, and questions around gender and identity.

She uses a mix of practical strategies and talk therapy. Sessions often include skills from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused work. Denise emphasizes concrete tools for daily life and time to reflect on patterns that keep causing pain.

A central part of her work is supporting people with ADHD and attention differences. She helps clients translate ideas into routines, structure, and realistic plans that fit their day-to-day life. Conversations can cover focus, motivation, impulsivity, and the social effects of attention differences.

She also works with people navigating stress related to identity, LGBT concerns, gender dysphoria, and life transitions. That can mean talking through relationships, communication problems, feelings of shame or guilt, and questions about purpose. Therapy may include short-term problem solving alongside longer-term reflection on attachment and past experiences.

Additional areas Denise addresses include caregiver stress, first responder and veteran issues, mood disorders, divorce and separation, and neurodiversity topics such as autism and Asperger Syndrome. She integrates skills practice with exploration of patterns to help people manage symptoms and make practical changes.

Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking and follow the listed process to get started.

How her therapeutic approaches work in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that match those values while learning to live with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, stress, and decisions about identity. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and reducing impulsive reactions; it is useful when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationships are strained.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client assess needs, goals, and preferences together and try techniques that fit the person’s daily life. Some work may prioritize skill-building and short-term problem solving, while other work looks at longer-term patterns and relationships.

Confirm her current session options before booking. Online care can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or travel. It can also let sessions be shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, or reduce bandwidth demands when video is not chosen. Ask about the available formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so sessions match your schedule and practical needs.
