About Denise

Denise Mulcare is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She works with adults and young people who are unsure where to begin. Denise aims to make sessions straightforward and calm so clients can talk about what matters to them.

With 12 years of practice, she uses a mix of approaches matched to each person. That might mean looking at thoughts and unhelpful patterns with cognitive behavioural techniques. It could also involve using acceptance and mindfulness practices to manage strong emotions.

Denise pays attention to how early attachment and relationships shape current difficulties. She draws on attachment-based ideas to help people understand patterns in relationships and to try different ways of relating. Client-centred work is also central, with a focus on hearing the person and working at their pace.

She also supports people with parenting concerns, body image, codependency, bereavement and coping with life changes. Other areas she covers include anger, trauma and abuse, adoption and foster care questions, and ageing or caregiver stress.

Sessions are shaped around practical steps and gentle reflection. Denise will talk through what feels most useful, help set manageable goals and review progress as you go. If you want to start, follow the service's sign-up steps to match with her and arrange sessions.

How her approaches adapt to online work

Denise draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy as key ways to help people. ACT focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and learning to act in line with personal values; it can help with anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Client-centred work centres on listening and reflecting so the person sets the pace and decides what matters most.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Denise works together with the person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adapts the style as needs change, so therapy stays useful and relevant.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work and family life, avoiding travel time and keeping continuity when someone is away. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, confirm the current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can offer ways to make remote work effective, for example by shifting to shorter check-ins or using mindfulness exercises that suit quieter surroundings.
