I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker from Boston, Massachusetts (and also licensed in Nevada and Arizona) with fourteen years of experience in providing psychotherapy. I have worked with all different kinds of people, and I have helped them with a variety of challenges and mental health problems. I have post-graduate training in several types of treatment, including cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy, as well as an academic background from New York University in psycho-dynamic treatment.
I know that no two people are the same, so there is no cookie-cutter approach to therapy. When I work with you, my preferred approach is to work together to find the unique approach that works best for you. I like to combine support, empathy and humor with skills-building, problem solving and mindfulness to help people better manage overwhelming emotions and improve their relationships - without any judgment. My goal is to help put you back in the driver's seat of your life and gain mastery over your feelings and relationships. I know how important it is to build a strong and trusting relationship with a therapist, and I provide both validation and truthful insights to my clients. Most of all, I strongly believe in a strengths-based, person-centered approach that recognizes each person's unique abilities and helps them to reach their highest potential.
What I love about online therapy is that it's so flexible. When you reach out to me, I will be in touch with you within 24 hours, so you can message me any time, anywhere. I am available for live sessions over instant messenger, telephone or video chat. When it comes to your treatment, you're in charge - we can communicate in whatever way makes you feel most comfortable.
It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help. I know that together we can overcome any obstacles you are facing and put you on the path to a happier, calmer and more satisfying life. I promise to be right by your side every step of the way on your journey, and that we will work at your pace. I am excited to work with you!

I appreciate that my therapist hung in there through a time of miscommunication and has shown effort to respond to the key things that I say and she understands better now that if I'm complaining, it's because I'm learning to speak up, not because I think I should end therapy. So it feels more relaxed and that's encouraging. And by now she has helped me over 2 years, so she knows my situation and some of my challenges, and it's helpful to be able to just mention people or settings and she knows what I'm talking about. This feels special to me.

Dr. Denise Whall-Marlin has read me and understood my concerns from the very beginning. She is very sensitive to my needs and has accommodated to my highly sensitive state of mind right now by offering me her own valuable expert view, scientific sources for me to read and learn from and helps me think through my own ideas by asking me questions that read my needs and inner conflicts beyond what I could imagine.

Honestly Denise is THE BEST! I wish I could stay with her forever but I just can't afford to. I have talked to other therapist and they just DO NOT compare. I had to come back to leave a review for her because anyone would be lucky to have her as their therapist! She is very reassuring and kindly honest. I appreciate the resources she provided me to help me better understand what I was going through but, also helped me find a local child therapist for my kids. She made me feel comfortable from the very beginning and always responds within a timely manner. Most importantly she allows space for me to be upset and or cry without stopping me I can go through my emotions with her. I will truly miss her!

Denise was not my first match on BetterHelp, but when I "met" her, I knew she was the right counselor for me. Denise is in tune with my needs and incredibly insightful - but my favorite part about her is that she keeps it real. She is very down-to-earth, and all of her recommendations have practical applications for the real world. Denise has not only given me better insight into myself and why I act/react a certain way, but also given me tangible, real-time actions and tools that I need to get through a slew of difficult situations.

I've been working with Denise now for 3 months and have seen such a drastic improvement in my overall mood, stress level, and relationships with others. Denise is kind, understanding, patient, and nonjudgmental. She exudes confidence. So much so, that I feel like I can tell her things that I would never share with anyone else and have trouble admitting to myself. I know my pairing with her was somewhat random, but I could not be happier with the selection. If I had the option to go back and choose, I would still choose her.

Denise has been excellent. I have been really impressed at how quickly she was able to help me identify & understand areas we could work on together. Simple changes that I could work on to improve the way I have been thinking & feeling about certain things in my life. She is always kind, & has been terrific with following up. Response time has been fast & I feel progress has been made already, with her help.

Denise is wonderful! She is incredibly understanding and has taught me so many new skills. She responds often and spends effort to form a thorough response. Honestly, she is the best therapist I've ever had, after going through three in-person and two others on BetterHelp.
