About Denise

Denise Mulcare is a BACP counsellor with 12 years of experience. She provides a calm, respectful space where people can talk about worry, loss and difficult life moments. Her approach is warm and straightforward, aiming to help people feel steadier and more able to cope.

Denise meets people who are dealing with stress, anxiety and low mood. She also helps with grief, relationship issues, parenting strains and recovery from trauma and abuse. Codependency and problems with self‑esteem or control are part of her work too.

In sessions she blends several ways of working to suit each person. There is a focus on practical steps alongside reflective conversation. Denise listens for patterns in thoughts, feelings and behaviour and helps people try small changes between sessions.

Mindfulness and acceptance-based tools are used to help manage difficult feelings. Cognitive approaches are offered for tackling unhelpful thinking. Attachment-informed ideas guide work around close relationships and how past experiences shape current life.

She works in plain language and keeps things simple. People can expect a collaborative tone where goals are agreed together. To begin, clients follow the site sign-up, complete a short questionnaire and book sessions according to availability.

How therapy approaches transfer to online working

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for stress, anxiety and feeling stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and how early bonds shape current ways of relating, which can help with trust and closeness issues. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of the work, with the counsellor offering empathy and non-judgemental listening to encourage self‑understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. The counsellor will talk with the client about their goals, preferences and day-to-day needs, and then suggest ways of working that might suit. Decisions about methods are made together and can change as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm available formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also offers ways of working that support step-by-step skill practice between meetings, such as mindfulness exercises or thought records, which suit the ACT and cognitive approaches Denise uses.
