People seek out therapy for a wide variety of reasons. Sometimes, the issues they are struggling with start out minor and they want help before the issues become too difficult. On other occasions, the problems have become unmanageable and dealing with them alone becomes too daunting. Some of those personal issues include anxiety, depression, stress at home, school and/or work, emotional dysregulation, among others. Therapy can help get a handle on any of those issues to help people carry on with every day living in a more productive fashion.

Our closest relationships carry profound psychological significance. They can be a source of deep joy and fulfillment, and just as easily, a place of frustration, pain, and disconnection. When we enter adult partnerships or marriages, we bring not only our hopes and intentions for a loving relationship, but also the emotional residues of earlier experiences that can resurface during times of change. Life transitions, such as becoming parents, navigating midlife or career shifts, or adjusting to an empty nest, often invite couples to encounter new aspects of self and each other, at times stretching the relationship in unexpected ways

You don’t need another place to hold it all together. You need a space where you can finally exhale. You’re high-achieving, capable, and the one others rely on; yet underneath, you’re overwhelmed, burnt out, or struggling. Maybe perfectionism keeps you pushing, even when you’re exhausted. Therapy with me goes deeper than surface-level coping so you can actually feel better, not just keep pushing through. I work with high-achieving women, therapists, and professionals who appear to have it all, while internally navigating anxiety, self-doubt, or disconnection. If traditional therapy hasn’t quite fit, you’re in the right place.

Parenting is full of joys and challenges, especially when your child’s unique needs bring extra stress to daily life. Sensory sensitivities, tantrums, or difficulties in social settings can disrupt routines and make even simple outings — like going to a restaurant or attending a party— feel impossible. For families navigating adoption, trauma, or life with a child who spent time in the NICU, these challenges can feel even more complex. Sleep disruptions, behavioral struggles, and unmet expectations can create anxiety for the whole family.

Going to therapy requires a certain level of courage and openness. I'm ready to hear you, see you, and hold space for you. My clients bring their stressors and triggers to work through in session. Together we work on building self-awareness (what is your felt sense or physical sensations), re-framing automatic negative thoughts (cognitive re-structuring), defusing from old narratives/schemas/beliefs, and carve a path towards a more confident/peaceful/content future.
Tools that may be used in session include mindfulness, CBT, DBT, Brainspotting, visualization, Gottman Method (couples), progressive muscle relaxation, & breathwork.

I'm licensed in Wisconsin and have additional certification in treating anxiety and OCD, with some focus on helping women with ADHD.
Are you someone whose life looks “good” from the outside, yet it still feels like something is missing? You’ve accomplished a lot, but you’re not feeling the fulfillment you expected. Anxiety, OCD or a big life change – maybe a breakup, new job, new marriage, parenthood, change in family dynamic or move – has highlighted that you’re still not living the fullest, most authentic life you want to be living. Something is telling you that you need to make a shift (even if you’re not quite sure what it is). You want to gain deeper insight into yourself, your past and you’re ready to start living wholeheartedly and joyfully here and now.

ADHD Therapists
When should I seek treatment for ADHD?
You should seek treatment for ADHD if you consistently have difficulty with attention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that interferes with your daily life. Symptoms of ADHD include the inability to sustain attention during tasks, difficulty organizing tasks and activities, being easily distracted, frequent fidgeting or squirming, and talking or interrupting excessively. If these symptoms interfere with your career, academics, or relationships—for example, consistently failing to complete professional projects on time—you should seek an evaluation for ADHD.
How does treatment for ADHD work?
Effective treatment for ADHD often consists of medication, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. Stimulant medications such as Adderall and Ritalin work by altering levels of neurotransmitters in the brain; higher levels of dopamine and norepinephrine are known to improve attention and focus. Therapy works by helping people with ADHD understand the condition, discuss their areas of difficulty, and develop behavioral strategies to manage their symptoms. In some cases, modifying one’s diet and exercise can also help improve symptoms.
Are there specific medications for ADHD?
Medications to treat ADHD are generally stimulants, the most common are Adderall and Ritalin. There are two categories of stimulants: Amphetamines include Adderall, Dyanavel, Vyvanse, and Dexedrine, and methylphenidates include Ritalin, Concerta, Daytrana, Focalin, Quillichew, Quillivant, and Metadate. Non-stimulants and antidepressants may be used as an alternative if stimulants aren’t effective or viable for a particular patient.
How long does treatment for ADHD take?
It’s tough to give an exact time frame because everyone varies. In terms of medications, stimulants begin to work very soon after you take them, generally within the hour. It may take time to identify the right medication and dosage, but the medication itself is fast-acting. In terms of therapy, it takes time to develop skills and put them into practice, but you will likely see improvements within a few weeks or months.
