Denise Kidd, LPC

Denise Kidd is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado with 22 years of counseling experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes. Denise also focuses on family of origin issues, attachment concerns, blended family stress, and communication problems.

Her background includes work in community health centers, substance use treatment programs, employee assistance services, and hospital mental health units. That range means she has seen a variety of common problems and practical ways to address them. Sessions often include clear skill teaching and problem-solving steps rather than long lectures or complex jargon.

Denise uses approaches from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), EMDR, and motivational interviewing. She blends these methods to help people manage symptoms, change unhelpful patterns, and strengthen everyday coping skills. Expect focused work on thinking patterns, behavioral choices, and emotional regulation.

Her style is interactive and solution-focused. She pays attention to multicultural factors and family context when those issues matter to the presenting problem. Clients work together with her to set practical goals and try new skills between sessions.

Many people come to her wanting relief from panic, mood swings, addictive urges, guilt, or midlife questions. Denise helps people clarify priorities, practice concrete strategies, and figure out next steps toward better functioning.
