ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Appleton, WI

I’m Niajcia, a Licensed Professional Counselor committed to providing compassionate, individualized care to children, adolescents, and young adults. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to work through life’s challenges.

I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Rehabilitation Psychology and Special Education from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 2017, followed by my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from UW–Madison in 2019. Since completing my graduate degree, I have continued to expand my clinical training and experience in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), suicide prevention and intervention, and adoption and foster care.

My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and trauma-informed. I work with clients to develop healthy coping skills, strengthen emotional regulation, build self-awareness, and recognize their individual strengths. I also value collaboration with parents and caregivers when appropriate to support meaningful progress beyond therapy.

I believe every client has a unique story, and therapy should meet them where they are.

Healing starts with being heard.

You’ve built your career. You’ve earned the title. You’ve learned how to perform, make decisions, solve problems, and lead others. But what got you here... may not be what keeps you there and takes you to your next level. The next level of leadership isn’t always about learning another strategy or adding another skill. Sometimes, it’s about shifting what’s happening within you—the way you think, the way you respond under pressure, what you’ve carried, and the habits & patterns that influence how you lead.

I work with leaders to help them lead with calm, confident composure. Leading doesn’t have to be so hard. Call or email me today. I meet you where you're at and start by listening closely, nonjudgmentally to your story. This helps us build trust & rapport. My approach leans more toward coaching to support you holistically—emotionally, mentally, and professionally. I help you understand what holds you back & keeps you overwhelmed or stuck. I offer practical tools you can use in your daily life.

You get the benefit of my 25 years of experience working with high‐potential, high-achieving professionals & leaders navigating stress, burnout, conflict with team members or the pressure to “hold everything together".

We explore what’s happening, without judgment. At the same time, you will get clear guidance, insight, and strategies that help you build emotional resilience, strengthen communication, set boundaries, and make meaningful changes.

I draw from what research says works best and years of experience in healthcare leadership, leadership coaching, and organizational psychology/development. Whether we’re addressing anxiety, depression, burnout, perfectionism, people‐pleasing, or major transitions, I can help you find ways in which you hold can bridge the gap between where you are now and where you want to be.

My name is LaShana Vance, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with a medical background. As a therapist, I believe in treating both the mind and the body together. I strive to understand my clients from a comprehensive perspective to help them in the most effective way possible. My approach is direct and straightforward, yet I am caring and kind. I find that this style is often necessary and helps my clients get to the core of their issues or problem areas.

Hello! I have a masters in art therapy but hold licenses to be both a professional counselor and a registered art therapist. This allows me to have a unique take on therapy. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you can be yourself, explore challenges at your own pace, and build the skills needed to move forward with confidence.

I use a collaborative, strengths-based approach, tailoring therapy to each person's unique needs, interests, and goals.

While I incorporate evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), solution-focused techniques, and trauma-informed care, I also enjoy integrating creativity and art when it feels helpful. No artistic experience is ever required—art is simply another way to express thoughts and emotions that can be difficult to put into words.

I have experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, autism, emotional regulation, life transitions, and relationship challenges. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or your child, I'm committed to helping you feel heard, empowered, and equipped with practical tools that extend beyond our sessions.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience helping adults navigate mental health concerns, trauma, substance use, and major life challenges. I know starting therapy can feel difficult, so I work to create a warm, supportive space where you can feel comfortable being open and honest. I value clear communication and believe therapy should feel collaborative, with us working together toward goals that feel meaningful to you. My role is to meet you where you are and support you throughout the process.

I am passionate about helping clients create an understanding and confidence in their mental health journey. I have a Masters in Art Therapy and 5 years of mental health work within hospital systems and private practice settings. I specialize in LGBTQIA+, OCD, and Disordered Eating from ages 12 and up.

I am an empowering, warm, and direct LPC therapist who is also solution focused brings clarity and steadiness to clients who are navigating mental health challenges. I provide individual psychotherapy grounded in evidence-based practices, helping clients build structure, strengthen healthy coping skills, and move toward emotional stability.

The therapeutic process is one of endless discovery and self-empowerment. Seeking out help is a valiant first step in this personal journey to befriend yourself. Befriending yourself greatly opens the internal space to invite others in so that we might have fuller, richer, and more wholesome relationships with those we love and those we’ve yet to meet. If you seek to reconnect, or connect more deeply, with your inherent goodness, then please reach out. I am deeply excited by the prospect of being able to share this experience with you.

I'm so happy your here!

Congratulations on taking the first step towards a better you. I believe that working towards good mental health is an investment in yourself. I want to help you feel like a million bucks! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) as well as a school psychologist with over 20 years of experience.

Hi, I’m Whyketha, a licensed professional counselor who believes therapy should feel safe, supportive, and real. I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, life stress, grief, relationship challenges, and major transitions. My style is warm, direct, and collaborative.

I am a licensed Profession Counselor with more than a decade of experience in the mental health field. I have been working in a variety of settings since 2012, providing counseling to children, adolescents, adults, and families. Throughout my career I have worked with a wide range of mental health diagnoses as well as substance use concerns. My clinical focus and the area I am most passionate about is trauma. I am nationally certified in Trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), with an additional training and clinical experience in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Aggression Replacement Training. My therapeutic style is compassionate, genuine, and highly individualized. I believe in meeting clients where they are and working together to determine what they need from therapy. Sometimes that means learning new skills, sometimes it means having a safe place to talk and be heard, and sometimes it means a little bit of everything. My goal is to help clients feel safe, supported, understood, and genuinely empowered, not managed. I truly believe that having a place where you can feel safe and relaxed is often the first step toward healing. When we have the opportunity to let our guard down and feel accepted for who we are, we can begin to process what we've been carrying and work toward letting go.

Outside of work, life is busy and lively with my husband, out two children and our collection of pets. We have two cats, two dogs, and a rabbit. Animals have always been one of my main coping skills and self care. I am happiest when surrounded by them. I am also usually happiest in the middle of a DIY project, even if I'm not entirely sure how it is going to turn out when I start.

I’m a licensed therapist with more than 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges, including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, and personal growth. I work with people from diverse backgrounds and support clients navigating family dynamics, sexuality, cultural identity, workplace stress, attachment concerns, and major life transitions. My background includes work with addictions, men’s issues, fatherhood concerns, social anxiety, self-esteem, and other complex emotional and behavioral concerns. I’m committed to creating a compassionate, supportive environment where you can better understand your experiences, develop meaningful insight, and work toward positive change.
