About Denise
Denise Kidd is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 22 years of experience in behavioral health and recovery services. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth help for stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, and life transitions. Her approach is warm and interactive, aimed at helping people take the next step when they feel stuck.
Denise has worked in community health centers, substance use treatment programs, employee assistance, and hospital mental health services.
Background and approach
Those varied settings shaped her ability to adapt to real-world challenges and to offer care that fits everyday life. She uses a mix of methods to meet each person where they are. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented.
Denise leans on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and on motivational interviewing when change feels hard. She also uses dialectical behavior skills to teach coping tools and EMDR to address trauma when appropriate. Her style is straightforward and respectful, with attention to multicultural and family-of-origin influences.
She emphasizes skill building, clear steps, and practical strategies so people can see progress between sessions. Denise treats the person, not just symptoms, and looks for strengths to build on. People who prefer a direct, compassionate counselor who offers structured tools and trauma-informed options tend to fit well with her style.
She supports work on communication, codependency, grief, impulsivity, and other life concerns while helping clients craft attainable goals.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches fit into online care
Denise uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood symptoms because it breaks problems into manageable steps.She also draws on EMDR to address trauma and painful memories when that is a good fit. EMDR involves processing distressing memories in a structured way to reduce their emotional impact and help people move forward.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Denise will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then choose methods together. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what feels most useful for the individual.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people have a full conversation and read nonverbal cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep a running dialog between sessions. These options give flexibility while keeping the focus on building skills and making steady progress.
