Therapists in Wisconsin

I have an innate ability to connect and form relationships with people. This ability has allowed me to work individuals and families in different capacities for over 15 years. I believe that every individual is unique. My counseling approach is open, flexible, and adaptive to each person's needs depending on their expectations of treatment, the problem, and treatment goals. Through my work I strive to create a strong therapeutic connection with clients and develop a safe space where clients can grow and evolve.

Imagine a life with more hope and more optimism; one in which you finally notice yourself making progress towards the goals you’ve struggled to accomplish because “it’s not realistic” or “there’s not enough time”. Imagine a life with less worry and more energy. Imagine finding success in achieving your ideal health and wellness goals or maybe improving the quality of your relationships with others.

I partner with my clients to reduce anxiety, depression, stress, and malaise, while also building strengths and adaptation strategies. To do this, we usually 1) explore any straightforward or creative ways to alter life circumstances that contribute to the malaise, and 2) identify, then make and implement a plan to reduce any self-limiting thoughts, beliefs, assumptions, and doubts that contribute to my clients' distress. While this sounds abstract and difficult, I am informal in my approach and we often have a good time getting where we're going!

A few years ago, I moved from upstate New York to Appleton, Wisconsin. I'm loving life in the Midwest! I am happy to be licensed in both Wisconsin and New York. At this time, I am ONLY seeing clients virtually using a HIPAA-compliant app called Spruce for video-based telehealth sessions. As of January 2023, I’ve recently had a few client spaces open up. These openings are mostly during the work week hours, but I’d love to see if we’re a fit. I’m not accepting insurance directly, but many of my clients are able to receive reimbursement by submitting my superbill to their insurance.

My journey to becoming a therapist started after returning home from a combat deployment, experiencing a devastating divorce and years of readjustment difficulties. During these deeply personal experiences, I became aware of the hurt and the brokenness we all face and now have a deep desire to help others to overcome as I did. I am passionate about helping couples find reconciliation and negotiating relationship pitfalls. As well as working with clients to heal from past trauma, manage their anxiety/depression, regulate anger or learn to value themselves again. You don't have to face it alone, there is hope.
