About Denise
Denise Venitelli is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, licensed in New Jersey with 27 years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, and low self-esteem. She also addresses relationship and intimacy issues, sleep problems, parenting stress, anger, career concerns, and life transitions.
Her approach treats the person, not just the problem. She starts by listening to each person's story and recognizing their existing strengths. Sessions focus on practical steps to manage symptoms and solve everyday problems. Denise uses straightforward conversation and skill-building rather than jargon.
Denise draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how close relationships affect current struggles. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. Emotionally-focused methods help when relationship feelings are intense, and dialectical behavior techniques support emotion regulation and distress tolerance.
People come with a wide range of concerns such as adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, communication breakdowns, control struggles, divorce and separation, or questions about life purpose. She also helps with ADHD-related challenges, compassion fatigue, and fertility-related stress.
Her work is practical and grounded. She helps people set goals, try small changes between sessions, and track what works. To begin, she asks for basic intake information and a first meeting to clarify priorities and plan next steps.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Denise uses attachment-based ideas to explore how past and current relationships shape thoughts and feelings. That approach is useful for people coping with relationship strain, abandonment, foster care history, or attachment-related distress. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, and sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will review your goals and preferences with you and recommend whether to emphasize attachment work, CBT skills, emotionally-focused techniques, or a mix. The plan is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also make it simpler to schedule around work, caregiving, or medical appointments. Talk with the intake coordinator about timing and session length to match what fits your routine.
