Current in person and virtual openings! My name is Laurin and I have experience working with children (7+), teens, and adults. When working with children, I believe working side by side with caregivers is essential to effective treatment and require active participation from caregivers in their child's goals. I am a licensed professional counselor and am a registered Art therapist in the state of Wisconsin. I have experience working with issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, life changes, etc.
When working with clients, I find it extremely important to develop a strong therapeutic relationship and create a feeling of open and judgement free dialogue with my clients. I work to incorporate a number of approaches from CBT, strengths based, solutions, focused, and so on to meet my clients where they are at.
I believe it is important to empower clients to feel in control of their therapy experience and for me as the therapist to walk alongside clients in their journey, rather than lead. I offer both in person and virtual appointments. At this time, I only offer virtual appointments for individuals aged 16 and up.

I have training and background in both traditional talk therapy and Art Therapy. I want my clients to know that if they are feeling intimidated or hesitant to engage in art therapy, there is no pressure to be the "perfect artist". Our focus is what feelings emerge when making art and processing.

I like to take an eclectic approach to my work with clients. I believe therapeutic approaches are not "one size fits all" and I strive to incorporate many different treatment types to meet clients where they are at and what feels most relevant to them in the moment and to their future goals.
