Therapists in Oregon, WI

As a Marriage and Family Therapist I work with individuals, families and couples, struggling with past trauma, infidelity, trust, affected family members, suicidality, preparation of commitment, and next-step family planning. I see a diverse group of patients from all sorts of different backgrounds, cultures, sexualities, abilities, ages, and creeds.

I am welcoming new clients who are looking for help with life transitions, grief and loss, ADHD, OCD, anxiety, depression, or traumatic experiences. I currently have the capacity to serve older teens and adults via telehealth using a wide range of evidenced-based techniques and approaches. Whether this is your first time in therapy or not I believe in equipping you with knowledge and tools to use throughout your life to overcome behavioral and emotional barriers. If you are unsure of your goals or ideal outcomes, we collaborate to outline what you hope to change, improve, and accomplish and use outcome metrics to measure progress.

Trained as a somatic & transpersonal psychotherapist, my work is rooted in the development and application of transformational techniques for healing and growth. Clients often report experiencing significant personal breakthroughs around life-long challenges. Finding acceptance for where we are and what we're dealing with in life opens the door to creating the life we want and know is possible.

Accepting New Clients—Do you feel like you don’t fit in or connect with other people, perhaps because of your traumatic life experiences, racial identity, sexuality, gender, or disability? Then you’re not alone! Do you feel lonely and want to make friends and have meaningful relationships with others but fear rejection because this has happened in the past? Lastly, do you feel hopeless, worthless, rejected, abandoned, invisible, and forgotten & want to increase your confidence to make meaningful relationships then call me.

Andrea is an experienced well-rounded therapist who believes that each client is unique and can tailor therapy to individual needs using a variety of evidenced-based techniques. Andrea is a firm believer that although talk inspires change, changes in behavior need to happen in our lives to create the positive change we seek.

I work with people who want to start or continue their journey in healing from trauma, clients who may be struggling to navigate what it means to be neurodivergent and clients who want to learn more about their own identity throughout this process. Together, we can work on reducing shame, blame and guilt surrounding traumas, decrease hypervigilance and avoidance to work toward valued living.

Reflect on your life as it is today. What comes to mind? Are you content? Feeling overwhelmed? Make a change today. I am here to provide you with the guidance needed in order to live your best life. After all, when you choose to do things differently, you are choosing a different out come. "May your CHOICES reflect your HOPES, not your fears."(Nelson Mandela).

Many of the individuals Samantha works with struggle with some form of anxiety that prevents them from feeling complete, whole, or living the life they want to live. She specializes in working with individuals struggling to overcome Anxiety, OCD, Trauma, and Eating Disorders. Sam also works well with individuals striving to build and maintain healthy boundaries and relationships.

I believe that happiness and recovery are possible! Anxiety, depression, PTSD, partner conflict and family issues can make life hard and can make people feel stuck. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families to change their lives to have more fulfillment and contentment. I want my clients to not just survive but to thrive. The first step is having the courage to get help. Don't live a unfulfilled life when assistance is available to you. Happiness and hope are possible and it is my goal to assist people to live life to the fullest of their ability.

Hello and welcome to my Psychology Today web directory. Thank-you for your interest in working with me. When you're wounded, lost or struggling it can be difficult to reach out to find the right kind of help that can empower you to take back your life. Whether you're facing difficult relationships, chronic health problems, traumatic life experiences, depression, anxiety and despair, or simply a feeling that you must be missing out on something everyone else seems to have... I want you to know this:

As a clinician, I believe that the major mechanism of change during therapy comes from the relationship that is developed and fostered between myself and my clients. My approach is individualized to meet each person’s uniqueness and I advocate for clients to take the lead as they are the experts in their lives. I work with clients of all ages, with a special interest in working with adolescents, eating disorder clients, as well as those with personality disorders, mood disorders, trauma, and grief to help them reach a meaningful and fulfilling life.

I specialize in working with young adults that want to triumph over obstacles in their lives. I will work alongside you to help you overcome anxiety, panic attacks, depression, trauma, stress, grief, relationship concerns, and many other issues that may come along with progressing through the stages of life. I hold licenses in both Illinois and Wisconsin. I am currently offering telehealth sessions only.

After working as a therapist for the past 15 years (Seven years in private practice while living in Colorado), I’ve learned that I do my best clinical work with clients who appreciate structure within the therapy session; prefer a direct approach; demonstrate a readiness and commitment to making their mental health a priority; attend sessions on a regular basis and take action to practice new tools outside of therapy sessions.

Client problems come in all shapes and sizes, with all kinds of different life experiences and reasons and needs. Problems are common in the world, and it is hard to shoulder the responsibilities set on our shoulders. It can feel lonely with the burden that people carry, and it seems reasonable to find ways to meet needs that are not being met. Sometimes these can be unhealthy habits that just cause more problems. Sometimes, it leads to a build up of pressure until everything is overwhelming and out of control. It disrupts our Serenity, and building this back up sometimes needs a helper.

On the outside, it looks like you have it all together, but deep down you're filled with stress and anxiety. Are you trying to juggle everything, with little motivation and/or progress? It is a scary feeling that leaves you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, alone and stuck. Together we can work through life challenges, whether it involves current issues that interfere with daily life or past events that keep coming up. My goal is to open your mind, expand your thoughts on what is possible, to offer you a vision for your future, to enhance your current skills to create healthier ones. This is YOUR journey... Take charge today!

I am interested in the challenges and advantages of what it means to be highly sensitive or an empath. As a therapist, I am drawn to those who tend to struggle with issues like depression, life transitions/change, worry, anxiety, perfectionism, rumination, social anxiety, self-doubt, shame, and feelings of meaninglessness. I am here to help you through your challenges and provide support. My approach is to non-judgmentally understand what drives the behaviors that seem so difficult to change. I am dedicated to establishing an authentic, intentional, and trusting relationship.

After establishing a trusting relationship with my clients, I work towards identifying their issues followed by setting mutually-agreed upon attainable goals; one step at a time. I personally believe that the success gained by smaller increments builds confidence which eventually motivates us to achieve more. My clients set the pace; determining just how quickly or slowly they want to proceed. While some only need a few sessions a month, others prefer a more frequent schedule. As a tele-therapy provider I offer the security of a private, confidential “office” with the ease of “meeting” you anywhere at times convenient to you.

Do you wonder if your worries or behaviors are normal? Do you find yourself doing the same thing over and over again because it doesn't feel just right? Is anxiety interfering with your relationships, work, or school performance? If you would like to feel better by making some changes in your life, you are at the right place. Anxiety is treatable using researched-based therapy, techniques, and interventions. Equipped with a new set of skills and techniques learned in therapy, you will have the necessary strategies to cope with your anxious feelings, thoughts, and unhelpful behaviors.
