Secular and Non-Religious Therapists in Plover, WI
Hi, I’m Katie! I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, and the kind of overwhelm that builds when you’ve been holding it together for a long time.
If you feel constantly on edge, stuck in cycles of overthinking or shutdown, or struggling in relationships despite your best efforts—you’re not alone. Many of the people I work with are insightful and capable but carry a level of internal stress that’s hard to explain and even harder to turn off.
Together, we make sense of these patterns and work toward feeling more grounded, less reactive, and more like yourself again.

Clients often describe my approach as calm, compassionate, and gently challenging. Are there past traumas or wounds that are holding you back? Have you been feeling anxious and can’t stop worrying?

These concerns can keep you stuck and unfulfilled, but together we can create a path forward.

If you've been through something that changed how you see yourself, other people, or the world — and you've tried to move past it without being able to — you're not broken. Your nervous system is doing exactly what it learned to do to keep you safe. The problem is that it's still running that program long after the threat has passed.
I work with adults who are done just managing symptoms. My clients want to understand what actually happened to them — in their body, not just their thinking — and to do the focused, structured work that changes how their nervous system responds, not just how they talk about it.

I work with many young adults (university students and young professionals) and with adults from across the lifespan (18+). I have experience with both mental health needs (mostly life transitions, depression, and anxiety) and with folks wanting to change their relationship with substance use (who are at a point in their recovery process where outpatient therapy can meet their needs).

You’re thoughtful and used to handling things on your own, but something has started to feel heavier than it used to. Maybe you’re grieving, angry, anxious, or quietly overwhelmed. From the outside things might still look fine, but inside you know something is off and it’s beginning to affect your work, your relationships, or how you see yourself.
You’re not looking to be “fixed,” and you’re not interested in being talked down to. You want clarity, steadiness, and space to think honestly about what’s going on. You’re willing to look at difficult things if it leads to living with more integrity and less quiet strain.

Thoughtful, capable adults who are tired of living in their heads. On the outside, things look fine. Inside, anxiety, overthinking, and pressure to get it right take a toll.

They don’t want to be fixed — they want clarity, steadiness, and a way to move forward without constantly fighting themselves.

I am happy to work with clients of all backgrounds and with a diverse range of concerns. My current primary clientele include members of the LGBTQIA+ community, couples/polycules, and folks struggling with anxiety, depression, body image and body dysmorphia concerns, self-esteem, and general relational issues. Since I work exclusively through telehealth (online audio/visual), I do require clients to be at least 12 years of age as I've found younger folks struggle to maintain attention for very long when using online therapy.

What is a secular and non religious approach in therapy?
Secular or non-religious therapy is a theoretical orientation used by many therapists and describes a therapeutic approach that does not rely on any specific religious or faith-based beliefs in the therapeutic process. Secular counselors will often approach therapy with an emphasis on evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients, instead of relying on religious practices, such as prayer or belief in God.
Is secular therapy primarily for non-religious people?
Both religious and non-religious individuals can benefit from secular therapy. People exploring their religious or spiritual beliefs may find it especially useful to work with a secular therapist who is unbiased toward any specific religion. While religious individuals might value the connection and familiarity of seeing a counselor who shares their beliefs, secular counseling can offer them the chance to develop coping skills independent of their religious practice, which can be beneficial in various aspects of their lives.
Can a secular approach to therapy help with religious trauma?
One major reason clients may seek a secular therapist is to process previous religious experiences, including religious trauma. Secular therapists can help clients manage symptoms of the trauma through practices such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). They can also encourage clients through talk therapy or psychodynamic approaches to explore the roots of their religious trauma. Since secular therapists do not have any predetermined religious beliefs, they can be particularly helpful for clients looking to explore their own religious beliefs following a history of religious trauma.
What does non religious marriage and premarital counseling involve?
Marriage and premarital counseling typically involves a couple meeting with a therapist to discuss topics such as planning for marriage, navigating a new marriage, addressing relationship challenges, and developing better communication and conflict resolution skills. Non-religious therapists assist couples in achieving these goals without adhering to specific religious beliefs or frameworks, often emphasizing inclusivity and non-judgment, especially for "nontraditional" couples. However, seeking couples therapy from a non-religious counselor does not mean religious topics are off-limits. In fact, non-religious couples from different religious backgrounds may benefit from a secular therapist who remains neutral toward the beliefs of each partner.
