Dean Health Therapists in Eau Claire, WI

Each of us can have a life worth living. If you are burned out or stressed out, or if you find yourself having the same, repeated conflicts with your loved ones, therapy can help. Therapy can help you interact differently with the stressors in your life. We can all benefit from therapy by gaining insight into ourselves, creating new patterns in our relationships or finding helpful ways to cope with life’s difficulties. Each person has the ability to find contentment, peace and meaning in life. It takes courage to reach out. I use a caring, non-judgmental approach to support clients in the important work of healing.

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults within the scope of individual, relational, and family therapy. I have experience working with children and adolescents dealing with mental health challenges, such as: behavioral issues, difficulty managing emotions, self-injurious behavior, post traumatic stress and low self-esteem. I also support individuals learning to manage symptoms related to anxiety, depression, trauma, and problematic life experiences.

As a therapist, I believe in a collaborative journey toward healing and growth, meeting my clients exactly where they are in their unique experiences. Through a compassionate and client-centered approach, I strive to create a safe space for exploration and empowerment, fostering resilience and meaningful change together. Let's embark on this journey of self-discovery and transformation, side by side.

I enjoy working with people to create a nonjudgmental space that is tailored to their needs and goals. My view is that we are connected internally and externally in a web of different systems that impact us, and through understanding how these systems and the client are affecting one another do we get a comprehensive view of what’s going on. When appropriate and agreed upon, I will work with people in these different systems (e.g., family, loved ones, teachers, primary care providers, social workers, parole officers, etc.) to help provide continuity of care and a cohesive treatment plan.

I believe each person comes to counseling with their own unique story. I am a genuine person who wants to help people achieve their goals in a healing environment that is free of judgment. I want to build a trusting relationship where we work together to make positive changes and achieve personal growth.

Life can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and the world around us, which can lead to difficult feelings like fear, sadness, shame, and confusion. Therapy provides space to explore and understand barriers to connection and to identify how to address them.

Additionally, therapy helps improve social skills by fostering better communication and interpersonal relationships, enabling children to form healthy connections with peers and family, and equipping them to tackle social difficulties like bullying or anxiety.
