Denise Garrett works as a counsellor in the United Kingdom and brings six years of professional experience to her practice. She holds BACP accreditation, which she uses to guide how she supports people through difficult times. Denise speaks English and accepts international clients, working with people from different places and backgrounds.

Her main areas of focus include stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship difficulties, and trauma and abuse. She also addresses related concerns such as attachment and abandonment worries, issues linked to adoption and foster care, blended family tensions, and challenges around communication and codependency.

Background and approach

Denise helps with problems connected to body image, eating issues, addiction, cancer-related stress, caregiver strain, and the fallout of separation or domestic violence. Denise follows a client-centred therapy approach. That means conversations are shaped around each person rather than a fixed programme.

She listens with sensitivity and adapts sessions to fit what a person needs at that moment. The aim is to build a working relationship where people feel heard and can explore their priorities. Her style is described as gentle and respectful, with an emphasis on practical steps and steady progress.

Sessions can include talking things through, reflecting on patterns, and trying small changes that make day-to-day life easier. Denise believes taking the first step is brave and she offers steady support through the early stages of change. To begin, people choose a plan and use the platform process to match and schedule sessions.

She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and ongoing text-based messaging for flexible contact.

Client-centred care delivered online

Denise works from a client-centred perspective that places the person's experience at the heart of each session. This approach involves active listening, empathy and reflecting back what someone shares so the focus stays on their priorities and feelings. It can help with stress, anxiety, relationship worries, grief and trauma by creating space to tell your story and decide what matters most.

Her gentle, person-focused way of working means she will collaborate with each client to find the right fit. Together they will discuss goals, try different ways of working, and adjust the approach based on what proves most helpful. Deciding which methods to use is a shared process rather than a fixed prescription.

The online formats offered include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and ongoing text-based messaging. Video works well when people want face-to-face conversation, while phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a voice check-in is preferred. Live chat suits shorter, immediate exchanges and messaging supports ongoing contact between scheduled appointments. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, caregiving or travel.
