Before my second session with Denise I canceled bc I thought I just could not do the emotional work, could not face the trauma. But Denise kept trying with me to reschedule to find a time this week that would work. Because of her persistence, I felt hopeful, less fearful, and more willing to do another session. Now that I completed the second session, I feel calm, supported, empowered, peaceful, hopeful and enabled by the work we did together and the homework she gave me. I also feel more committed to doing the work to learn and to heal. And I very much look forward to each session. I am so grateful to be connected with Denise. I could not do this therapy work without her (and I even tried other therapists before her.)

Welcome! My name is Denise Billings and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in South Florida with close to 9 years experience. I service the community with a broad, multifaceted expertise in counseling patients with diverse issues including mental illness, anger management, life skills deficits, trauma, and more. Licensed professional with the ability to quickly establish a rapport and facilitate positive change within families. Compassionate therapist fully capable of conducting cognitive/behavioral therapy in English.
As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has been working with adults and adolescents for almost 9 years, I describe my clinical approach as using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Solution Focused since everyone comes with different needs and problems.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. If you already took the first steps, I am here to encourage and empower you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She's great
Denise is very upbuilding and experienced, she has helped me for almost half a year now, very patiently going through my issues and helping me sort through my thoughts and feelings. She’s professional, kind and reliable!
Attentive, competent, and engaging
Guided me to a place of understanding myself in way I’ve never thought existed. Highly recommend
Denise has been God sent since I started therapy with her. She digs in deep in your situation and tries to make you open up to find the peace you need. She checks up on me and makes me do work for the next therapy so you can find relief in any situation that causes pain in my life. I have been a working progress in all that I have been through, but I know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Denise Billings is the best person, therapist. I can communicate freely with her. She calls me out. She brings life experiences relatable to my issues and conerns. She encourages and builds my confidence. She is someone I look forward to speak to as she inspires me to know I can make things different, just put the hard work in. Thank you
I am so glad I met Ms. Billings and I would recommend her 100%. I started therapy to treat my anxiety issues, childhood trauma, and depression symptoms. While I still am in progress, I have been able to regulate my emotions better than I used to and objectify my situation thanks to my weekly sessions with Ms. Billings. I took a short break due to exhaustion a few months ago without notice and I felt very bad but when I came back she welcomed me back with open arms and told me it was good to see me. I felt so lucky to have her as my therapist. She is absolutely charming and I love talking to her. She makes me want to be a better person. I am looking forward to future sessions with her and I am sure everyone would feel that way!
My anxiety has improved greatly since I have started sessions with Denise!
Denise is very supportive and compassionate.. she shows concern about my well-being, and I truly appreciate that! Love her uplifting words of encouragement.
Denise is amazing.
I believe she is a very capable, knowledgeable person whom uses personal experiences, kindness, and insight into her sessions. I look forward in my next session.
Having been to therapy before I was really hoping for a good, positive and helpful matchup therapist wise. Denise has been above and beyond any expectations I could’ve hoped for. She has been by far the best therapist I’ve ever met with and leads our sessions with an open ear and evidence based practices that have truly helped me navigate my marriage and family better. If only more therapist were like her more people would engage and benefit from therapy!
Denise has become like family. She has been a great therapist for me. She understands culture and religious and social perspectives that only some people might understand. She understands traditional values and contemporary lifestyles. The real benefits of theapry takes time, but with Denise's help we have laid the ground work for a path to genuine healing and growth.
She is very kind and gives me the feeling that I am heard and respected. Amazing person.
Denise was super instrumental in my mental health journey. She helped me identify the tools I had and gave positive reinforcement to my successes. I’m truly thankful for the time I spent with Denise and feel like I’m a better person mentally and emotionally because of her.
Denise responds quickly and always on time for our calls. She helped me a lot in my struggles and I feel very comfortable talking to her
She is amazing don’t hesitate to book a session with her

She has helped me tremendously and given me life tools to build great habits. Thank you again Denise! I appreciate all your efforts and encouragements.
Denise is a very caring and thoughtful person. She is attentive to my needs and give feedback on how to help and better myself. Thanks
The Best
Denise has been a source of information as well as support. She listens and gives well thought out advise and/or suggestions to assist with my issues. I find her to be kind, intelligent and a wealth of knowledge. She checks in often to ensure that I am still on track and utilizing what I have learned while working with her. I would strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a therapist.
I've been working with Denise for a few months now and I can't recommend her enough. Her professionalism, her positive attitude and listening ear have helped and encouraged me to become the best version of myself and to let go of all the burdens I had been carrying on for way too long. Before starting therapy, I always felt guilty or anxious about starting the healing process but I am extremely grateful that I have been able to work with Denise and that she forever changed the way I looked at myself and therapy as a whole. She is remarkable!
Denise is a wonderful woman who has helped me come to terms with some of my issues with addiction and is always a great help and reminder that whatever I'm going through there's room for me to become better if I'm willing to change. She is always checking on me even if sometimes I don't get back to her right away! Thank you miss Denise!
Very professional nice and kind good listener
Denise is the best. She answers you in a timely manner, she makes sure that she checks in on you and listen to your concerns.
Good stuff
Denise is empathetic, straightforward and driven in helping people work through challenges endured. I’m grateful to have crossed paths with her.
I really feel very comfortable with Denise. She is very practical and no non-sense, which works well for me. I am already evening out.
Denise is a wonderful therapist. She gets down to business but she is also warm and welcoming. She has made me feel comfortable and supported even though we are on opposite sides of the world to each other. My journey hasn’t been easy and I am grateful that I found Denise. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a wonderful person Denise!
Denise is present and approachable. I like that she was able to establish and mesure the presence of depression and ADHD. Now i can focus on it more clearly. My personal journey is slow and iam still very uncertain about what i want or need. Therefore i do not uses the services that is at my disposition yet as much as i could. Thats on me not Denise :)
