Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Milwaukee, WI

Life, circumstances, and a vast array of experiences can seemingly bar us from achieving our full capacity. I believe at times we even unknowingly stand in the way of our own success. As a practicing clinician, I am passionate in helping individuals overcome what holds them back. I approach my work with enthusiasm and vibrancy working with individuals highly motivated to enact lasting change and to better understand themselves on a deeper level. I provide therapy rooted in a compassionate, genuine, and grounded connection to assist in uncovering and creating your best life!

We provide a full continuum of care at locations around the country, including residential treatment centers; a full suite of outpatient programming, with Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), and outpatient services with a flexible number of days per week; telehealth; and alumni programming. All of our programs have received accreditation from the Joint Commission for Behavioral Healthcare, the nation’s most respected healthcare accreditation body.

As a clinician, I believe that the major mechanism of change during therapy comes from the relationship that is developed and foster between myself and my clients. My approach is individualized to meet each person’s uniqueness and I advocate for clients to take the lead as they are the experts in their lives. I work with clients of all ages, with a special interest in working with adolescents, eating disorder clients, as well as those with personality disorders, mood disorders, trauma, and grief to help them reach a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Have you ever found yourself not knowing who you are anymore; feeling empty, unhappy, and stuck? Do you engage in people pleasing, self-sabotaging, find yourself avoiding conflicts, and numbing to protect yourself from more hurt and pain? In reality, all you want is to enjoy your life! If that's how you feel, I want you to know that you are not alone! Our experiences from the past shape our thoughts, and beliefs; how we see ourselves; and how we relate to others. As a therapist, I help people to stop this cycle, heal from past wounds, better their relationships, and find ways to an authentic and joyful life!

I have significant experience working with adults and families in a variety of areas including anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem/identity, and relationship issues. I work one-on-one with clients to identify relevant life issues and coordinate specific, goal-oriented objectives for our work together. These goals are reassessed and modified as needed on an ongoing basis to maintain therapeutic focus.

Hi there! I'm a licensed counselor with a desire to help individuals become acutely aware of their worth and purpose in the world. Through an exploration of each individual’s unique psychosocial history and presenting circumstances, we collaboratively determine the evidenced-based treatment interventions that best cater to the client. I find value in incorporating a multi-systemic framework, helping clients identify how their various systems (family, friends, work, school, and community) contribute to presenting symptoms. I also welcome the opportunity to integrate faith into sessions to the extent that one is comfortable.

Are you struggling through a loss, a life transition, or simply longing for something different? Or maybe you have unresolved trauma that's making you feel stuck? One of our greatest human desires is to experience connection and find a place of belonging and love. Yet that desire can sometimes be our greatest fear. Our work will be about creating space to slow down, support ways to hold life's complexity differently and be compassionately curious about what’s getting in the way of what you truly want for yourself. It's never too late to explore being comfortable in your own skin and move toward growth and aliveness.

I am very passionate about working with people of all experiences and ages. I especially am passionate about working with children and adolescents and have the most experience working with the adolescent age group. I am interested in treating mental disorders and symptoms such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, autism-spectrum disorder, personality disorders, and more. I also have experience with family therapy.

I am a licensed sex positive and affirming psychotherapist who is passionate about helping people reconnect to others in meaningful and intentional ways. Specific areas I help individuals and couples tackle are: trauma, depression, anxiety, porn addiction, sexual incompatibilities, desire discrepancy, shame and embarrassment, low desire and pain during sex, emotional difficulties, conflict and communication resolution. Therapy can provide a safe, supportive and thriving environment for you to reach your desired goals in life, connect with the people who matter most to you, and cultivate purpose.

Is your child stressful? Do they get anxious more than their friends? Is your child or teen down & unmotivated? Is your family adjusting to adoption or foster care, or maybe a recent death or divorce in the family? Are you a young adult who isn't sure about what next steps are or maybe life is just really hard? If any part of these questions resonated with you, please reach out. Clients describe me as down to earth, easy to talk to, works well in crisis situations, & is non-judgmental. In my free time you can find me by Lake Michigan with a cup of coffee, on a walk with my family, finding new houseplants, or gardening outside.

Sometimes life gets hard and we just want someone to listen and help guide us through in the healthiest and safest way possible. I am a psychotherapist who has done just that for many clients in the 15 plus years I have been in practice. My first priority is to help you feel safe and comfortable in working with me. I am an eclectic therapist that uses different techniques and modalities because I believe every client’s needs are individualized. I am a laid-back therapist that can bring humor into session when appropriate but I am also able to be direct in what I see and what I feel the best treatment needs are.

Whether you may be struggling to enjoy daily living or feeling overwhelmed in certain aspects of your life, my approach is to meet you where you are and help you overcome these challenges. I am a big believer in goal setting and want to help you develop a strategy to achieve your goals throughout our counseling sessions. I offer a compassionate and supportive environment that encourages growth.

A therapist has three jobs: to listen, to teach and to instill hope. I'd be grateful for the opportunity to do those things for you. I consider myself a "guardian of potential"-I see people beyond the problems that bring them to my office and for who they really are. I have the ability to "reach the unreachable". You may be nervous about trying therapy for the first time, or you may have had bad experiences in the past, but I believe in the power of human connection and I believe you no longer have to live in the pain or circumstances you've been in. The time for change has arrived!

My legal name is Tou (pronounced two), but I've been going by Chad for much of my adult life. I like helping young adults and kids figure life out. Growing up and even now, it has been difficult for me to balance the instability of life with whatever emotional turmoil comes with those challenges. Simply having someone to speak to and help you process through those frustrations is incredibly helpful. I didn't always have that person to talk to about my struggles and so I have made it my life goal to be that resource for everyone else!

I don't believe in one-size-fits-all. Everyone is unique and my goal is to work with you to uncover the tools and techniques that will best fit you and assist you in managing your mental health. My diverse background offers multifaceted skills to assist you in reaching your therapy goals.

Do you feel there aren't enough hours in the day? Are you boggled down by the seemingly never-ending demands of work, home and lack of self-care? Balancing being a parent, friend, employee, partner leaving no room for being an individual? We often find ourselves depleted at the end of the day, and honestly, sometimes first thing in the morning! This can affect how we show up in life. Imagine waking to a feeling of peace instead of the overwhelming dread of an impossible to-do list that continues to grow and doesn't include you.

Hello! My name is Lyndsey Litwin and I specialize in providing online therapy for teens and young adults struggling with low self-esteem and relationship issues. At times, it can feel like your own self-doubt is getting in the way of moving forward. Like you are constantly stuck in your head, replaying a past conversation or preparing for the worst case scenario. Whether you're an adult seeking guidance through life transitions or an adolescent navigating the challenges of growing up, I am dedicated to supporting you build a healthier relationship with yourself and others.

Are you stressed? Depressed? Anxious? Angry? Do you suffer from fatigue? Insomnia? Perfectionism? Low self esteem? Infertility? Weight Problems? Trauma? ADD? or Memory Problems? I can help. I am a clinical health psychologist with a specialty in behavioral medicine and am dedicated to empowering patients to positively heal their mind, body and spirit.

My Personality: Bold, honest, empathetic, compassionate, articulate, and nerdy. Most of the folks I work with have been dealing with issues for a long time and either starting to want to change or see that they need a change to happen to be where and who they want to be! Nothing is too big or too small to be handled together – trauma, abuse, toxic relationships, harmful coping skills, conflicts at work, self-doubt/growth, and personality disorders. My job is to help you explore where these issues are coming from, what has worked in the past, and what will help you become a new “whole” person in the future.
