Therapists in Wauwatosa, WI

I am Licensed Professional Counselor who works with children (starting at age 13), adolescents and adults. As a strengths based and client-focused therapist, I utilize research based strategies and techniques (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing) to assist clients who are dealing with various mental health issues (anxiety, depression, anger management, stress disorders, substance use, grief and trauma).

Sometimes, we need additional support to figure out the next step or to make a change in a positive direction. I understand that seeking help can be overwhelming. My priority is to provide a comfortable and safe place for you to talk about your personal issues and concerns. I am non-judgmental, patient and understanding. I have over 18 years of experience in individual and family counseling, working with a wide variety of issues.

I believe that human connection, compassion, and empathy are key to our wellness and becoming our authentic selves. As a psychotherapist, I use an integrative approach that is client-centered, insight oriented, and rooted in a deep understanding of the impact of stress and trauma on the body, mind, and relationships. Together we will create goals and a holistic plan to foster your strengths and empower you to live your best life possible.

Are you an adult, notably a man, and/or someone who stutters struggling with stress, anxiety, and/or depression? Maybe you want to talk about it but don’t know where to turn and don't want to be judged or feel vulnerable? Perhaps you feel like no one understands what you’re going through. As a man who stutters, I hear you. You are not alone. Unfortunately, many adults and/or people who stutter try “white-knuckling” it and play tug-a-war with themselves until they burn out. I encourage you to take a moment. Breathe. Change is possible. This will be challenging, and you can feel like yourself again and be in more control of your life.

Anyone who is at least moderately motivated :-), has some level of awareness that they need help. More specifically, their issues, needs, and goals could range from struggling with feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, loneliness, relational conflict, grief/loss, overcoming the effects of past trauma, codependency, personal identity and purpose exploration, and the list goes on. They may not know what they want or why, perhaps, a change is needed or there is more potential available than they are accessing. I want to be one of the people to help walk with them through this process of self discovery.
