Welcome
Welcome to InnerBloom Therapy Practice! I am Denise Gulotta, a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who provides therapy to children (8+), teens, and adults. I also work with parents to help them learn how to support their child and facilitate change at home by implementing strategies worked on during sessions. One of my favorite populations to work with are college students and young adults. I am passionate about working with clients to gain a better understanding of themselves, learn new skills and grow. I believe that everyone has the capacity for change, growth and development.
About
Denise Gulotta, LCSW
I graduated from University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign with a Bachelor of Psychology in May 2000. I then earned my Masters of Social Worker from Loyola University in Chicago in 2002. I was a school social worker for 15 years before starting in group practice in 2017. For two years at the practice, I had the opportunity to be a site supervisor. In 2022 I decided to continue my professional growth and started InnerBloom!
I decided to become a child therapist when I was in high school and had so many experiences working with children in various places including child care settings, as a nanny, after school care, and then as a social worker in schools.
One of my favorite things to do is spending quality time with my family and friends. The connections I have with them are so important and meaningful to me. I enjoy taking mindful walks, exploring different neighborhoods in Chicago and attending concerts. At home, I like watching back-to-back episodes of the newest series I’m obsessed with. I absolutely love my reading on my kindle before bed and listening to audio books in the car. I live to travel, explore different cities and countries. I love learning about different cultures, traditions, and trying local foods. My creative outlets include participating in art classes and making candles. One fun fact about me is that I used to do makeup for weddings. My newest passion is taking care of my growing collection of plants. Watching my plant and clients bloom brings joy to my life.
