About Licensed Psychotherapist
DR. DENISE FOURNIER, LMHC, CCTP, PMH-C
OWNER AND FOUNDER OF EVERGREEN THERAPY

With nearly 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I bring depth, perspective, and a holistic lens to my work as a therapist. Before launching Evergreen Therapy in 2015, I held many diverse roles in the mental health field—working with at-risk youth aging out of foster care, supporting LGBTQ young people and their families, providing family therapy in community clinics, and serving as Clinical Director at a substance use treatment center founded on the principles of Zen Buddhism.

This work isn’t just what I do—it’s who I am. When I’m not sitting with clients, I’m mentoring new therapists, teaching graduate students, leading workshops and retreats, or writing about intentional living on my Psychology Today blog, Mindfully Present, Fully Alive. Nothing excites me more than supporting people in fulfilling their potential. I bring both formal training and deep personal devotion to the process, weaving together traditional psychological approaches with the wisdom of Buddhism, Taoism, shamanism, and other healing traditions. My approach is integrative, intuitive, and grounded in honoring the whole person—including the emotional, psychological, spiritual, communal and ancestral dimensions of their lives. My core commitment is to honor the individuality of everyone I work with. Every person’s journey is unique, and I let that truth guide the way.

Unhealed Emotional Wounds

The most up-to-date research in the field of psychology reveals that trauma is much more common than many of us realize. Unaddressed and unprocessed emotional wounds can result in mental agony, emotional pain, and a whole host of physical ailments. In the supportive container that therapy provides, you can address those wounds and begin to experience real healing. Our empathic and trauma-informed therapists are ready to guide you in your own unique healing journey.

Limiting Beliefs & Problematic Patterns

Whether you’re struggling with feelings of unworthiness, battling imposter syndrome at work, or engaging in unhelpful patterns of behavior in your life or relationships, therapy can help you experience real and lasting breakthroughs.
