Denton Family Therapy

I come from a fitness and wellness background where I have supported clients in achieving personal well-being for going on 20 years. My professional journey has spanned both private practice and large clinical settings, including academia, allowing me to integrate diverse perspectives into my work. As a mental health professional, I intend to provide clients with the most comprehensive and compassionate care. 

As a doctoral candidate, my research explores the spiritual and existential dimensions of grief through the lens of object relations theory and the dual process model of grief, utilizing a phenomenological methodology. This work reflects my commitment to understanding the profound intersections between psyche, relationships, and spirituality. 

Beyond my doctoral research, I am a scholar of history and philosophy with specialized training in object relations therapy and psychoanalysis. These disciplines inform my approach, emphasizing the importance of exploring unconscious processes, relational patterns, and the deeper meanings that guide personal and collective healing. My aim is to create a therapeutic space that nurtures growth, resilience, and the rediscovery of purpose.

Personal Statement

I support the integration of spirituality and/or religion for clients who find it necessary in their healing journey. My personal practice includes a deep connection with nature and animals, meditation practice, personal self-reflection, and quiet contemplation. I have an affinity towards aquatic animals and the ocean.
