Denise Dritsas, PsyD, is a compassionate psychologist dedicated to facilitating healing, acceptance, love, and personal growth. She firmly believes in the human ability to rise from adversity, gaining wisdom and strength through life’s challenges. Her therapeutic approach emphasizes emotional and character development rather than mere symptom alleviation. As a traditional psychodynamic therapist, Denise values the interplay between conscious expression and the unconscious needs and conflicts that her clients face. While verbal communication forms the core of her sessions, she thoughtfully incorporates art, music, and literature to address the individual's whole self. With extensive training at an agency that advocates for medication-free treatment, Denise specializes in assisting clients who prefer a non-drug approach to therapy. Maintaining client privacy is a paramount concern in her practice, further fostering a safe and nurturing environment for all clients, including preteens, teens, adults, and elders.
