About Deniele

Deniele Degryse is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with 25 years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, and challenges related to attention and focus.

Background and approach

She draws on long-standing practice helping clients manage OCD-type behaviors, parenting difficulties, grief, anger, and life transitions while attending to issues like self-esteem, career pressures, and bipolar symptoms. Her work emphasizes creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore thoughts and emotions at their own pace.

Using client-centered principles, she prioritizes empathy and collaboration, and she often incorporates cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Deniele aims to partner with each person to build practical coping skills, strengthen communication, and foster greater self-understanding.

Clients interested in addressing attachment concerns, autism-related challenges, codependency, compulsive habits, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, or young adult transitions can expect an approachable clinician who balances warmth with evidence-informed tools. She accepts international clients and conducts sessions from Florida as an LMHC.

Practical approaches for online work and coping



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps clients identify patterns of thinking that contribute to distress and then practice alternative thoughts and behaviors; this approach is often used for anxiety, depression, OCD-type symptoms, and managing reactions to stress. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a supportive therapeutic relationship, offering empathy and acceptance so clients can explore feelings and make choices that fit their values; this approach supports emotional processing, self-esteem work, and relationship concerns.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and will adapt methods over time to suit what is most helpful, combining relational support with practical CBT techniques when appropriate.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make regular sessions more accessible for people with busy schedules or geographic constraints. These formats allow for continued momentum in skill-building and coping work while fitting therapy into daily life with greater convenience.
