Therapists in Sheboygan, WI

I am honored for you to consider my practice to assist you in navigating this journey we call life. Are you experiencing a life changing event that you are struggling to navigate? At a crossroads, trying to decide where to go or what to do next? In a time of transition with your partner, or loved one? Struggling to get along or communicate? Do you need an objective impartial party to help guide you? There is no right or wrong answer, just what is best for your situation and those involved. I am affirming and supportive of the LGBTQ+ and Poly(ENM) communities. My hope is to guide you to a place of "transformation and new beginnings".

Parenthood can be confusing, isolating, & not at all what we were expecting! I am passionate about collaborating with individuals across the spectrum of pregnancy & parenthood, including new parents, queer parents, non-traditional families, non-gestational or adoptive parents, those who have experienced loss or infertility, & birth parents & those impacted by adoption. I also provide unbiased, evidence based pregnancy options counseling. I also offer support with adjustment to parenthood & guidance in gentle & respectful parenting for secure attachment.

Thanks for stopping by! I am a Brainspotting-trained psychotherapist, and have been in the social work/mental health field for more than a decade. I (maybe like you?) have moved through a life that has not always been kind, easy, or safe. I was fortunate to find counselors who helped me reprocess and heal, and form a healthier, more secure sense of self. Through this personal work I became inspired to become a counselor and support others in similar ways.

My clients are individuals and relationships that are curious about what a different and more fulfilling future might look like. I believe that every person's identity and experience is complex and worth understanding deeply. I also believe that everyone has a unique and powerful set of skills and strengths (even if they don't know it). Whether you are looking to connect with yourself or your loved ones, heal from trauma, relieve anxiety/depression symptoms, or move through a challenging life transition, I will meet you with an authentic therapeutic presence that welcomes creativity, exploration, and growth.

I practice sex therapy, individual therapy, and couples therapy in southeastern Wisconsin. I also specialize in family building, queer families, pregnancy, postpartum, and parenting.

Health at Every Size aligned, ace spectrum affirming, neurodivergence specialized.

I enjoy working with clients who aim to live their life in congruence with their values. They may notice themselves making decisions over and over again and think, “Why am I doing this? This isn’t me.” I appreciate when people put themselves out there and reflect on how to get unstuck.

You deserve to heal. You deserve to be supported, respected, and seen for all you have been, all you will be, and all you are in this moment. I trust you to be the expert on yourself and your own experiences within the body, identities, and relationships that inform your ways of knowing yourself and your world. Our work together will not focus on identifying what’s “wrong” with you, and won’t aim to “fix” you. Together, we will explore areas of distress, discomfort, or questioning through a systemic lens. I will support your intentions toward transformative change and growth from perspectives that matter to you.

Our worldviews are made up of stories: about ourselves, others, the ways we engage with people, and the ways we move through the world. I'm fascinated by the mutual influence of individual perspective and shared experience, as well as the ways societal norms both limit and support individuals and relationships. How are you influencing and being influenced by others? What aspects of your story do you wish were different? How do you want to be known, and move through the world? "I don't know" is a perfectly acceptable answer! Let's explore and see what we discover.

Are you a "people pleaser"? Are you feeling weighed down by life? Does it feel like you are stuck, when everyone else has it figured out? Are you tired of giving to others, leaving nothing for yourself? If this feels familiar and you are ready to get to the bottom of what has gotten you here, know that help is here. I work with clients to work through what's hurting, develop strength in the face of life's stressors, and build a life that feels right for them.

I practice a person-centered approach where I strive to treat all individuals with respect which promotes autonomy. I provide a respectful, accepting, and empathetic counseling perspective. I work with adults, adolescents, couples, and families and I have a special interest with working within the framework of holistic wellness.

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.

I have a long history of working with those who have experienced; domestic violence, sexual abuse, trauma, relationship difficulties, sexual concerns or addictions, PTSD, depression, anxiety, personality disorders and more. I work with men, women, and couples. I am a person-centered therapist who believes that clients are the experts of their own lives. I am honored to be invited to join my clients on their journey of healing and to offer a judgment free, supportive, and comfortable space for all of my clients to be themselves and explore their goals with me! Starting therapy is scary, I strive to make this a comfortable process.

Life can be really hard and oftentimes we need additional support. I love working with individuals through life's transitions and challenges. A belief and dedication to growth, resilience, and well-being, I prioritize trauma-informed care and social justice in my practice. I emphasize authenticity and genuine connections by integrating empathy, creativity, and humor into sessions using Gestalt Therapy. Whether guiding teens or adults through various life’s transitions or focusing on improving a client’s mental well-being, my approach remains culturally conscious and sensitive to individual experiences in the broader societal context

Boozhoo. Hello, my name is Danika. I believe that we heal through building a relationship with ourselves and others. In community, we can co-create our lives and offer encouragement and strength to ourselves and others. I connect with a collaborative and narrative therapeutic environment that offers space and safety for us to co-explore your world and relationships.

Greetings! Sometimes we benefit from a non-biased, affirming source of support to open new pathways to pleasure and fulfillment - both of which we are all inherently deserving of. I invite clients to come as their authentic selves, explore the nuance of “what is,” and challenge narratives they may be ready to shed. As a systemic therapist, I believe all systems we exist within impact us. Clients can expect to explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors as experiences informed by family, partnership, community, work, and broader social systems.

Maybe you’ve hit a major bump in the road of life and need support. Maybe you’re ready to explore aspects of your identity, or simply want to shift into a more vibrant, joyful way of living. While people come to therapy for many different reasons, it should always be a supportive and nonjudgmental space to be heard and to reconnect with our innate strengths. The choice to care for ourselves, to seek help, allows us to find the resilience we didn't even realize was there. It is my honor to assist my clients as they heal and grow.

I believe therapy is a great place to start when you’re feeling stuck and/or wanting to make a change in your life. Therapy is a great way to help you identify the obstacles in your life and give you the courage to meet those obstacles head-on in a safe and supportive environment. The space provided in therapy can also help break out of your old and unproductive ways of coping; this can lead to new and exciting ways to living your life. Your therapy can be brief or long-term, depending on your needs. So, allow me support you as you get unstuck, find your passion, and enjoy your life to its fullest.

Everyone has a story to tell and needs someone who will listen. My priority is to give you a safe place to share that story without judgement. I believe that you are the expert on your own life and will work to meet you where you are at. I utilize a strengths-based approach to help you work on personal growth and the goals that are important to you. I specialize in working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions, high stress, and trauma. I am passionate about working with individuals who are a part of the LGBTQIA+ community and teens and young adults working to transition to adulthood.
