Therapists Beginning With I in Wisconsin

You are a master of comparing yourself to everyone else, but you remain miserably out of touch with what you really want. Being a perpetual victim of your circumstances has stripped away your power and left you feeling helpless in the face of crippling uncertainty. The struggle itself has taken on so much meaning for you that you forget to highlight areas of your life where you can thrive and strive. The good parts of life seem to disappear as quickly as they arrive, and you’re left with the ache of wishing it could all be different.

Sometimes the way you relate to yourself and others no longer aligns with who you truly are, your values or how you envisioned your life. You may feel disconnected from yourself and others. You may feel anxious or misunderstood, and start to question your worth or love. To cope, you wear a mask to hide parts of yourself, which creates feelings of tension within yourself and with others. What if you lived your life according to your values while accepting and expressing your genuine self? I create a judgement free, safe therapeutic space where you can explore, understand and find your authentic self.

Life is rarely a smooth journey and sometimes it is necessary to seek the help of a therapist. I am dedicated to providing clients with a safe, comfortable and nonjudgmental environment so that the important work of healing and change can go forth. I recognize that each person is unique and I provide a highly personalized approach tailored to each client's needs.

Impact Mental Health Therapy, LLC exists to provide you a welcoming, transparent and confidential environment of high-quality, competent therapeutic counseling. My mission is your improved mental health well-being and a therapeutic partnership for life's ambiguous journey.

I understand the difficulties accessing care for mental health concerns when you need them. Taking that first step shouldn't take months when you are ready to seek help. I provide mental health therapy for adults as well as for family or friends who struggle to support or understand the needs of their loved ones.

“I am a solutions-focused therapist. Therapy is about you and is highly individualized: You’re the boss. My job as therapist is to guide you to where you want to go.”

My mission is to help you navigate through life's ups and downs to find your path to mental wellness. Whether this is your first time coming to therapy or you have been on this journey before, I'll meet each individual where ever they are in their own journey. I offer a space of openness, respect, support, and validation to everyone that walks through my door.

So, I guess your question would be, "Why should I choose you as my therapist over others? Will I make more progress working with you?" I do believe in educating clients with regard to CBT/DBT/Mindfulness techniques, which are invaluable when used to improve everyday functioning and helping individuals manage distress. However, where clients remain stuck is a combination of 1) Not being aware of underlying unresolved issues and 2) Not knowing how to get at them and bring them forward to consciousness. Often, therapists work with traumatic 'events' that clients bring to them. I process these events, but also help uncover more.

We are excited and passionate to work with all ages and backgrounds and are foundationally driven and focused on providing clients with unjudgmental positive regard in therapy.

I have been working as a licensed psychotherapist for the last 10 years and have additional training in Motivational Interviewing, Exposure and Response Prevention, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and PEERS social skills training from UCLA. I am also the author of Conquer Anxiety in Ten Weeks. In 2021 I decided to pursue a career as a neuropsychologist and am currently working on my PhD. With a specialization in neuropsychology I have gained training and education in brain anatomy, brain function, the relationship between the brain and behavior, and neuropsychological assessments.

A space to bring ALL together to guide in healing and in healing connections.

Many people struggle to cope with strong/uncomfortable emotions. Learning how to "regulate" emotions is a cornerstone of mental and emotional health. God created all of us as emotional beings who also use reason and logic, not the other way around. As children, our work is to learn how to recognize, validate and effectively use feelings as guides to ourselves, our relationships, behaviors, careers and so much more! If you weren't able to learn these skills, it's not too late! I work with children of all ages, from birth throughout the human lifespan, and help them to grow and thrive.

Hi my name is Sarah Fredrich, I live in Watertown, WI. Married and have 3 grown children and eight grandbabies. I have two step kids. I have been in the Medical field for decades- I have experienced all types of obstables in my life- or shall we say road blocks. I would like to offer my services to whom ever may need it. I come from a big family and lots of uncles and aunts. I have a AS degree in Science, A- BA in Sociology, A- MA in Transformational Leadership and a Applied Doctorate in Forensic Psychology. As I stated before I have come a long ways to get here- but the train does not stop there I am here to help.

In general, I take a humanistic, existential approach to therapy. I believe that the client is the expert of their experience and that my responsibility is to provide support, build skills, and assist in processing through one's experiences. I adapt my approach to the needs of the client; for example, if a client is interested in using worksheets or homework, I am happy to provide those in addition to talk therapy. Additionally, I believe that creative approaches can help clients express feelings that are difficult to communicate with words, so I also utilize art therapy and play therapy.

I believe that counseling is a partnership between therapist and client, where together we navigate the areas that are causing disruptions in your life. Using humor, compassion, and a creative variety of clinical approaches, my goal is to guide you in making meaningful changes so you are able to move from simply surviving to thriving and enjoying life.

If you or a family member are in need of someone to listen or you are going through issues that are difficult or you would like to make changes then give me a call. I offer professional, confidential and straight forward help for many areas of life concerns. I have many years of life experience as well as counseling experience.
