Denise Neeley is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 27 years of clinical experience, specializing in Anxiety and Depression, Addiction, Compulsive Disorders, and Trauma/PTSD care. Throughout her career, Denise has worked with both individuals and couples, offering one-on-one talk therapy and integrating specialized techniques such as EMDR and collaborative treatment when appropriate. While each client's needs are unique, Denise’s mission has remained consistent for nearly three decades: to provide a safe, inclusive space for comprehensive care, welcoming people of all backgrounds, ethnicities, genders, and sexual orientations. One of the most notable aspects of Denise's practice is her referral-based caseload, which has been entirely built on word-of-mouth since she began providing care in 1999 after graduating from the University of San Diego. She is particularly known for her expertise in Couples Therapy and Psychodynamic individual therapy, offering both depth-oriented work and crisis-specific support for clients.
Married for 30 years and a proud mother of two, Denise values her time with family, cherishing every opportunity to explore new hikes and discover local restaurants around Orange County. When she’s not with her family, she enjoys the companionship of her beloved dog, Lady, and two cats, Hiro and Arya. One of her greatest passions, aside from her pets and family, is reading. A remarkably fast reader, Denise finishes nearly 200 books each year and always wishes there was time for more.
