Therapists in Wisconsin

I work with adults, especially those grappling with aging-related issues and the effects of cognitive changes in themselves or their loved ones. Our work together will be guided by your needs, desires, and goals. This might include working on challenging relationships, loss and grief, difficult life transitions, depression, anxiety, or critical life decisions. For individuals and families on the dementia journey, I offer support, education, validation, referrals, and assistance in planning. I am happy to consult with family members on an as-needed basis. I am also willing to meet at a client’s home as needed and appropriate.

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.

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.

Do you find yourself stressed managing all that life throws your way? The worry, overwhelm, and panic feels never ending. The stress may be from external or internal pressure, a life transition, or the death of a loved one. On the outside you look like you have it all together but on the inside you're crumbling; not feeling like you. Living between these two worlds is exhausting and all you want is a moment of relief. In counseling we will work together to create lifelong change so that getting through the day is less exhausting and more energizing.

Have you seen traditional talk therapists and felt like something was missing? I certainly have. Sometimes words are hard, and they don't always do well capturing our internal experience.

Another day spent in the exhausting juggling routine of tending to everyone’s needs but your own. Your newborn kept you up all night – again. You can’t remember the last time you had any time for yourself. Contorting yourself to please everyone has transformed you into someone unrecognizable. With each role you take on – mother, wife, sister, friend – you feel further from yourself. As the stress in the pit of your stomach grows, the tension rises to your throat. You’re overwhelmed, and there’s nowhere to turn. You’ve sucked it up for too long and told yourself things are “good enough,” but they’re not. Don’t lose hope just yet.
