Therapists in Milwaukee, WI

We view challenges as an opportunity for growth. Life challenges us with difficulties including depression, anxiety, illness, growing up and getting older. We often try to conceal our struggles with smiles or withdraw from those around us.

Are you struggling with overthinking, feeling overwhelmed and exhausted? Do you feel that past traumas and negative life experiences have left you feeling unworthy of happiness? If your daily life is wearing you down, you may be seeking support to get to a better place. As a certified trauma professional, I use techniques to help people struggling with wounds from current and past relationships to move on from painful experiences.

Other experience: anxiety, depression, grief. Adults and Couples. Youth considered with family involvement (15+ preferred). I offer telehealth only.

My approach to psychotherapy is focused on building a strong and collaborative relationship with you, the client, working with you to provide immediate symptom relief and make sustainable change. My style is warm, curious, and engaged. I provide a safe and confidential space for you to share your story. I am influenced by the psychodynamic tradition, focusing on how you relate to yourself and others. As you begin to feel understood, accepted, and more deeply known in therapy, a trusting therapeutic relationship develops. This results in greater self-understanding and leads to change, including immediate symptom relief and longer-term transformation.

I am passionate about helping those who are introspective, emotionally-inclined, and curious. I care about helping clients move beyond the surface in therapy to reach a deeper level of truth that they haven't yet spoken. Too often, therapy glosses over the fact that, at times, life is painful and messy. As much as we might want to avoid this, I strive to remind clients that we are better off trying to embrace this, and we might be surprised by what comes from doing so.
