Mrs Denise Wallis

Counselor

“I am a qualified integrative counsellor using person-centred theory while including some key aspects of CBT and TA and I am a BACP registered member as well as a certified online therapist and, I have worked in an anxiety/OCD based organisation for over 12 years helping clients explore issues, identifying the causes”

About Me

I offer a calm, collaborative space to explore your anxiety or OCD. With over 12 years' experience in this field, I integrate person-centred theory alongside practical CBT and TA tools. We will work together to identify the causes of your challenges. This approach helps you gain clarity and develop lasting strategies. It's ideal for anyone seeking to understand their experiences and move forward with confidence.

Approach

Together we turn gentle exploration into practical, step‑by‑step change: sessions move between open conversation and focused, skills‑based tasks that you can try between meetings. In my Romford practice or online I keep the pace steady and collaborative, using straightforward cognitive and transactional techniques alongside empathic listening so you can name patterns, test alternatives and rebuild routines. Many people find this blend helps reduce overwhelm and gives clear, usable strategies for everyday life.
