I work with individuals and couples to better understand their inner experiences, navigate challenges, and create meaningful, lasting change. My approach is grounded in curiosity, compassion, and the belief that every person has an innate capacity for healing. Using IFS, we explore the different “parts” of you—like the one that feels anxious, overwhelmed, angry, depressed or stuck—in a way that is non-judgmental and at your own pace. Together we aim to create space for painful experiences to be approached and understood safely. Over time, clients often feel more connected to themselves, and more peaceful in their emotional worlds.

I’m Angie, a licensed therapist providing telehealth therapy for adults in Wisconsin and North Carolina. I intentionally keep my caseload small so I can offer personalized, attentive care and meaningful therapeutic connection.

Therapy isn't for the weak. It requires dedication, vulnerability, self-reflection, and perseverance. There will be times it feels like things are getting worse, and times where you feel uncomfortable and want to quit. These are the times I want to sit with you. I want to be there as you gain insight into yourself and what you need to heal and be mentally well. I want to facilitate confidence in the discomfort, leaning into the unknown, trusting that it will help you grow in the ways necessary for measurable change. We can do that together. Therapy is not easy, but it is worth it. And so are you.

If you’re dealing with anxiety, you may already understand yourself pretty well and still feel stuck. You might know why you think the way you do, but that hasn’t stopped your mind from racing, worrying, or pulling you away from the life you want. I work especially well with people whose anxiety is driven by high standards, overthinking, and the sense that they should be doing life “better.” I often support clients with perfectionistic or rigid tendencies, intrusive thoughts and mental loops, who feel exhausted from trying to control their minds.
