Had my first session with Denise at Positive Mind Works in Sydney and felt understood from the moment I sat down. The CBT techniques she guided me through have been practical in managing my anxiety, and the mindfulness exercises are simple enough to use every day. Highly recommend if you’re in the CBD and need a grounded, professional psychologist.
I was knotting up with work stress and Denise’s sessions helped me reframe things without judgment. The stress management strategies she taught are easy to implement, and the English-Portuguese options seriously helped my sister understand too. Great local service in Sydney.
Relieved to find a psychologist who listens well and explains CBT in plain terms. Denise at Positive Mind Works gave me practical tools for daily routines, plus mindfulness tips that actually stick. If you’re in Sydney needing supportive counseling, she’s a solid choice.
Denise helped me through a tough period with compassionate, non-judgmental sessions. The mindfulness training and stress management techniques have become part of my week. I’d definitely recommend her for anyone in the CBD area seeking clear steps forward.
From the first appointment in Sydney, I felt calmer. Denise’s approach blends counseling with practical CBT strategies, which made a real difference for my mood and sleep. If you’re around the city and need support, she’s worth booking.
I appreciated Denise’s calm, friendly manner and the way she layered mindfulness into the sessions. The sessions at Positive Mind Works are convenient for someone living in Sydney’s inner west, and the tools she taught me have been invaluable.
Grateful for Denise’s guidance during a stressful spell. The combination of counseling, CBT, and practical stress management gave me a clear plan and more confidence. Would recommend to anyone in Sydney looking for a thoughtful psychologist.
