Couples Counseling Therapists in Brookfield, WI

THERAPY OFFERS HOPE. It has the power to heal and repair. My style is to work collaboratively with you to either change the problem or change your response to the problem. I have over 20 years of experience working in outpatient, inpatient and residential settings and have a comprehensive background in mood disorders, substance use disorders, trauma and marital/family concerns. My clients describe me as a warm, skilled therapist who genuinely cares. I will help you be honest with yourself regarding the areas that need change and to trust and lean on your inherent strengths.

Dr. Trueblood is a strength-based psychologist who uses cognitive behavioral and Rogerian approaches to help people see challenges as opportunities for growth. By using perspective and available internal and external resources, an individual creates a stronger self leading to healthier, happier, and more fulfilling relationships. Focus on the mind, body, and spirit are also encouraged and incorporated into treatment to facilitate a holistic approach. In working with children and adolescents, Dr. Trueblood feels giving them respect, supportive listening, additional perspective, and healthier coping skills will increase their ego-strength resulting in more positive relationships with peers, parents, and self.

I work with a variety of people with all different backgrounds and life experiences. These beliefs and values help establish ones character and value system. Throughout life, all people face challenges or barriers that can influence their mental health and alter one’s worldview. Vulnerability plays a key role in seeking out help and utilizing therapy to become more empowered and overcome life’s challenges. I believe the therapeutic relationship that can be established in therapy can assist with living a happier and more fulfilling life by meeting your individual goals.

Are you feeling tired, emotionally disconnected, and or daily life stressors impacting your relationship with self and others? As a counselor, I value strength in individuals to overcome personal challenges. I have an understanding of how much traumatic events and intergenerational trauma translates into our daily life and habits. Therapy can be helpful throughout many transitions, decisions, challenges and life events. Whether you're seeking therapy for the first time or returning to therapy. I believe through self, couples , and individual work clients can create safe and healthy way to resolve trauma and strengthen relationships.

My practice operates from the premise that people are doing the best they can under the circumstances and that everyone has strengths, coping skills, and resilience they are often unaware of. Life challenges happen to everyone. These challenges come in the form of our relationship with ourselves and others, our physical & mental health, and unexpected experiences that overwhelm our ability to cope. Sometimes the challenges are about how the past impacts the present. Being human means that living includes both joy and pain.
