Couples Counseling Therapists in Suamico, WI

We all face challenges. You may be dealing with depression or anxiety, feeling trapped in addiction to substances, behaviors, attitudes or thought patterns. It's hard work navigating relationships, careers and maintaining social connections. Regardless of where you are, you are making a positive choice in seeking out help.

Many people experience challenges in their life, whether it be their marriage, family, or personal life. Transitions, change, and conflict are inevitable, and when individuals are open, courageous, and ready for change, counseling can be very effective. Not every therapist will be good for every situation, and that is why I have spent my career specializing in marriage and family therapy. Many relationships need help at one point or another, but I can help individuals and couples move from confusion to clarity. Are you trying to determine if your relationship is destructive? Difficult? Disappointing?

I work with individuals, couples, families, and children addressing everything from everyday stress to chronic anxiety & depression. Many clients simply want an objective and trusted listener. I offer a comfortable and private setting for you to settle in and talk about your concerns. Maybe you're contemplating a change and not sure about your path; a new job, starting, ending, or recharging a relationship, confronting someone or resolving old hurts. The thought of change is usually more overwhelming than the actual act of change; anticipation often far worse than participation.

I learn by listening to my clients. I specialize in the treatment of dual diagnosis (AODA/Mental Health). I often work with affected family members, as well as, the whole family as balance is sought.

Today you are one step closer to feeling empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being. As a solution-focused psychotherapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating.

By applying complementary psychotherapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be preventing you from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Our foundation, which includes our childhood and the dynamics of our family, directly impacts our thoughts about ourselves and others. It affects our behaviors and relationships. Most of my clients have some sort of childhood trauma that is affecting their ability to move in a peaceful, productive direction. Understanding how the brain is affected, and how to incorporate positive thoughts and behaviors, can change a person's life. It takes courage to share our inner thoughts and experiences. I appreciate the strength in my clients and build on these, showing them they have what it takes to make positive changes.

I believe the hardest part to entering therapy is the first phone call. With many years of experience working in a variety of settings, nothing gives me greater pleasure than assisting individuals in improving their own quality of life and satisfaction. I enjoy working with individuals across the life span to include children ages five and older, adolescents, adults and couples.

Relationships can get tricky at times, and when it becomes too difficult to figure out how to resolve it, seeing a professional trained to help couples and families can be very helpful. Trauma from our past can also affect present romantic, platonic and/or professional relationships. I believe that I am the counselor to help you address those issues and/or concerns if you are ready. It is important for me to let you to know that I will never force an issue to be discussed that you do not feel comfortable discussing.

We can't expect to see changes if we continue to do the same things everyday. As your therapist, my goal is to help give you the hope and healing you need to reach your goals, to find happiness and to be the best version of yourself.
