Life Coaching Therapists in Milwaukee, WI
I help adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, divorce, and other life transitions or challenges.
My therapeutic approach is tailored to each client's needs. Many times, clients start therapy in crisis mode and just need to vent and be heard. During the first session or two, I like to actively listen, acknowledge what you are experiencing, and offer gentle, non-judgmental validation.

Whether feeling stagnant personally, professionally, relationally, spiritually or in other areas of your life, I work with people to help them navigate the obstacles, maximize the opportunities and most importantly grow into an even better version of themselves!
I offer clients first and foremost a listening ear without judgment. Understanding the client already has many of the answers they seek, my role is to facilitate a thought-provoking conversation where those answers are able to surface and a growth plan is then able to be created and executed. The S+EI Profile is also an option for clients.

I'm an eccentric, nerdy, socially awkward member of the LGBTQIA+ community in northern Wisconsin, who became a therapist to help people in the same way that other therapists helped me in life.
Since I only provide services through telehealth/online platforms, I do require my clients to be at least 12 years of age simply because it can be challenging to hold the attention of younger children through online therapy.

Life Coaching Therapists
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
