Innovative Wellness LLC - Online Therapy Programs
Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT

Welcome to Innovative Wellness LLC where we strive to help our client’s holistically, for symptom removal rather than symptom management. Innovative Wellness was developed to help individuals focus on their overall health and wellness to improve their mental health. Traditional talk therapy requires months or years of treatment and doesn’t give long-lasting results. Effectively treating anxiety and depression symptoms goes beyond the therapy sessions. We have used current research from child therapists as well as adult therapists, to create a strategic and comprehensive program for both adults and high school age children.

I’m a licensed counselor with a desire to help others discover the intrinsic beauty they bring to the world. Through a deep 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) influence and contribute to presenting symptoms. I also welcome the opportunity to integrate spiritual faith into sessions to the extent that one is comfortable.

Russ Pope Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC

Life can be confusing and overwhelming. Most of us want to do the right thing. We want good relationships with others. We want to feel happy and live well. However, we often have unwanted baggage in our lives that gets in our way. We have habits, patterns, and behaviors we don't want. Thoughts, fears, and anxieties that hold us back. Secrets and addictions that can paralyze us. Sometimes we find ourselves in conflict with our spouse or others, and we don't know how to resolve it. There is hope.

Adam N. Moriwaki
Psychologist, PsyD
Verified
I am a psychoanalyst and licensed psychologist in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin with a practice focused on helping people live fuller, happier lives. Oftentimes, people may look fine on the outside, yet feel longstanding dissatisfaction and unhappiness on the inside. Many therapies and therapists take a directive approach to treatment, focused on telling a person how to reduce their symptoms of distress through specific recommendations. However, many people seek my services when their symptoms return after completing such treatments, as they continue to find themselves in unhappy patterns and emotional unrest.

Licensed Professional Counselor

I have been counseling families and adults the last twenty years. It is so brave and complicated to ask for help. I take the time to listen and create new avenues of solutions amidst the diagnosis. A diagnosis is not all of who you are, you are strong in ways you may not know. Let me help sift through issues and find clarity amidst the din. We work together.

I work with adults who identify with an ethnic minority group who may have difficulty regulating emotions, experiencing symptoms of stress or trauma, or impacted by addiction. I enjoy helping clients learn emotion regulation skills, understand how to strengthen the mind-body connection, and learn how to cope with distress through a holistic and culturally appropriate lens. I want to help clients learn how to improve their quality of life and overall mental health. I also enjoy providing education about mental health and practical ways you can take care of yourself.

I engage in meaningful relationships with people who seek greater self-awareness, clarity of decision-making, increased resiliency, new skills, and freedom from what’s not working.
Jeffrey Ligman
Psychologist, PsyD

Many people suffer and they are not quite sure what the problem is. Many other people may have been told what the problem is but this still has not helped. These are the people I work best with. No matter what the problem seems to be, I seem to be able to help when others have not. When my clients have told me this, I know I am on the right track.
