Therapists for Teens in Iron River, WI

People often come to see me when things are huge mess in their lives and they need a calm and safe space to sort it out. Help them get unstuck and move forward. About half of the people I see are teenagers (14+) who aren't really fond of anyone right now (I love those ones). And the other half are adults. You'll find me to be fairly informal as a person, direct, kind and real. I've been doing therapy since 2003 and it's what I would do even if work wasn't a thing. Issues range from trauma, depression, anxiety and addiction.

Anchor Bay Counseling Center's motto is "Where Hope Has A Home" The goal of therapy is to help people regain their footing and find hope again in their day to day lives. We specialize in individual, marriage and family therapy offering a values driven approach.

Neuroscience is showing us what we have known instinctually forever; that it is through nurturing relationships that healing and human growth occurs. If we have been wounded in relationship or have unresolved trauma from the past, our fear and reactivity can prevent us from seeking and maintaining nurturing and safe connections with self and others. I am a licensed therapist in CA and WI and work online with residents of those two states only. My practice is fee for service only.

I use a client-centered approach in therapy, where you are the expert of your life, and I am here to walk with you through life’s challenges. We will weave together your experiences from past and present during your personal journey. My integrated approach to therapy incorporates elements from traditional talk therapy, with art therapy, narrative therapy, nature-based therapy, and sand tray. I use a person-centered approach to determine with you, which modality meets your needs, and interests. I believe in forming holistic connections between mind-body-community-earth for personal growth.

If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, AODA issues, I am here to support those who are struggling with substance abuse issues and mental health issues. I specialize in helping people identify their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how to make positive changes in their lives by taking responsibility for them. I enjoy guiding and supporting the difficult process one takes as they discover their true potential and trust the process of healing.

With over 23 years of experience as a Counselor, I have found the most effective way to do therapy is to help empower people to recognize the power and strength they have within themselves. There is hope and a way to get better. I will show you through psychoeducation, learning effective coping skills, and changing/interrupting your negative thought patterns. When you change the way you see yourself you can change your life in ways you never thought possible. Let me help you let go of the fear/negativity/anxiety or whatever is holding you back in your life.

Hello, I have been a therapist for about 12 years now. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults within that time. I find I enjoy helping people overcome their trauma and take control of their healing. I use a client centered approach to meet your needs.

I have been working as a clinical therapist for more than 12 years, and previously worked in community social services with individuals experiencing homelessness and severe persistent mental illness. Over 15 years of work in the mental health field has taught me that a successful therapeutic relationship relies on building trust while seeking to understand my patients' points of view. In my previous therapy and social work roles, this belief has remained at the center of my work. As a therapist, I have extensive experience working with adolescents and adults with a variety of presenting concerns.

It's important to acknowledge up front that no therapist is a great fit for everyone seeking therapy. The people with whom I am able to develop the strongest, most effective therapeutic alliance tend to be those who contemplate themselves -and life, the universe, and everything- quite deeply. If you have been told by others in your life that you "overthink," I might be a good therapist for you. If you are struggling with symptoms of anxiety-, depression-, trauma-, and/or substance use-related disorders, or if you have been diagnosed with ADHD, I have many strategies and tools available to support you on your journey toward change.

Since I began practicing 21 years ago, I've gathered extensive experience working with adults and adolescents (14-19 yrs) using a strengths-based approach in addition to assessing and increasing communication skills for all areas of life to ensure you get the most out of every session. Always first and foremost, my goal as a therapist is to be genuine, approachable, and nonjudgmental as I help guide you through the therapeutic process to become your own best resource.
