About Denise
Denise Maupin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with eight years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. Denise also focuses on communication problems, forgiveness, finding life purpose, self-love, and social anxiety and phobia.
She uses practical conversation to help clients clarify what matters to them. Sessions tend to focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, building small skills, and testing changes that fit daily life. Denise aims to keep discussions straightforward so people can try things between meetings and notice what helps.
Denise draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address anxiety, mood, and behavior patterns. She helps people break down big problems into manageable steps and practices new responses to stress and cravings. Work on relationships often centers on clearer communication and setting realistic boundaries.
Her approach is collaborative; she and the person set goals and check progress. Plans may change as goals and life demands shift. Denise explains options and works at a pace that fits the client’s schedule and priorities.
People who prefer direct, practical work about daily pressures often find this style useful. She offers sessions in English and practices from California. To begin, prospective clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session.
BHow sessions work
Practical therapeutic approaches for everyday problems
Denise uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques aimed at changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Cognitive-style methods help people notice and reframe anxious or negative thoughts so they feel less overwhelming. Behavioral strategies focus on building small, repeatable habits to reduce avoidance, manage cravings, and improve mood.She also uses skills-based work for relationships and communication. This involves practicing clearer ways to express needs, set boundaries, and repair misunderstandings. These approaches are useful for social anxiety, relationship strain, and people who want concrete steps to try between sessions.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Denise reviews a person’s goals, preferences, and daily demands and suggests options to try. She checks progress together and adjusts plans if something isn’t helping.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists can also suggest ways to practice new skills in real-life settings between meetings.
