About Denise
Denise Garcia Loaiza is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with nine years of professional experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes. Denise speaks English and Spanish and brings practical, straightforward support to sessions.
She starts by listening to what matters now and what patterns from the past keep showing up. Many people find that family of origin issues - the roles and expectations they grew up with - still shape how they relate today. Denise helps people name those patterns and try different ways of responding in everyday situations.
Sessions focus on clear goals and small, doable steps. Denise helps people practice communication skills, manage overwhelming feelings, and make decisions during transitions. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and build coping skills without unnecessary jargon.
Her work also addresses caregiver stress, communication problems, dissociation, and mood concerns. She will help a person untangle guilt, shame, and cultural or multicultural issues that affect relationships and self-view. Practical tools and paced conversation are common parts of her approach.
People who choose Denise typically begin with a short questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.
How evidence-based work translates to online sessions
Denise uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on symptoms and skills. Cognitive-behavioral approaches help identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving; these methods are useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Trauma-informed practices pay attention to how past events affect current feelings and reactions, and they offer pacing and grounding strategies to manage intense moments.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Denise collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their goals and preferences. She will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on how someone responds over time.
Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. People often find it helpful for maintaining consistency during life transitions and for accessing English or Spanish-speaking support from their own location.
