Revolutionary Perspectives, LLC is growing!
Hi, my name is Dr. Denise Watkins, and I recently graduated from Widener University’s doctoral program in Clinical Psychology (Psy.D.). As a Philadelphia native deeply committed to community wellness, I'm excited to embark on this next chapter of my professional journey.
My clinical approach is rooted in a psychodynamic relational framework, as I believe that meaningful, healing relationships are central to therapeutic growth. I also integrate techniques from CBT, DBT, ACT, and motivational interviewing, always maintaining a person-centered, empowerment-focused, and trauma-informed lens. My aim is to understand the whole person—their context, identity, and lived experience. I am passionate about building strong therapeutic alliances to help clients explore their goals, needs, and pathways to healing.
During my training, I've worked with individuals aged 14 to 65 across diverse settings, including college counseling, community mental health, assessment, case management, and trauma-focused care, in both individual and group formats.
As I begin my professional journey, I am particularly interested in supporting individuals in Philadelphia and the surrounding communities, where my roots are.
Please feel free to reach out if you'd like to learn more about my work or discuss how we can support each other in serving our community.
Dr. Watkins is now accepting clients virtually!
