Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Appleton, WI

Life can get heavy, and sometimes you get to a point where you know something needs to change, you just may not know where to start. That’s where I can help. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, grief, major life changes, or just trying to make sense of everything you’ve been carrying, we can work through it together.

I work with children, teens, and adults, with a special passion for supporting at-risk youth, justice-involved individuals, and people who may feel like they’ve been judged, misunderstood, or overlooked. You don’t have to come into therapy with the right words or have everything figured out. Come as you are. We’ll start there and work toward where you want to be.

I'm a licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience working with adults. I earned my Master's in Counseling from Liberty University. I specialize in anxiety, life transitions, and supporting individuals who feel overwhelmed or put a lot of pressure on themselves to hold everything together. My approach is collaborative and goal-oriented, and I see therapy as a partnership focused on creating meaningful, practical change.

I am a warm, empowering therapist who believes healing involves the whole person. I focus on anxiety, depression, maternal mental health, trauma, and PTSD, while honoring how closely the mind and body are connected. As an empath, I tune in thoughtfully to your experiences and distressing symptoms so you can feel understood, supported, and less alone as we work together toward meaningful change.

I graduated from UW-Stout in 2020 and had a crash course of therapy during the pandemic. This has allowed me to become a more empatheic and passionate therapist who works hard to support clients through all of life's changes. I specialize in couples and relational work, but also work with indiviudals who are looking to navigate grief, anxiety, life changes, and stress. I support and research women's health, fertility/infertility and treat perinatal mood disorders.

Hi, I'm Jonathan. I"m glad you're here. Since 2011, I've helped children, teens, and adults work through anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, intimacy concerns, and the lasting impact of childhood trauma.

I believe healing happens when you feel genuinely understood, not judged. Whether you're carrying wounds from the past, feeling stuck in the present, or simply wanting healthier relationships, therapy can provide a space to better understand yourself and create meaningful change.

I enjoy working with people from all walks of life and tailor therapy to your unique needs, goals, and experiences. For those who desire it, I can also incorporate Christian principles into our work together.

As a board certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, I work with a plethora of inter-generational clients aged 21-90 who are struggling with anxiety and depression and trauma.

As a chaplain, I take a psycho-spiritual approach and work with clients assisting with intercultural issues, blended family dynamics, religiosity challenges and grief & loss.

About Me

Hello and welcome. You don't need to have everything figured out before seeking help. We can start where you are, identify what's getting in the way, and develop a path toward where you want to be.

The answers may be closer than you think.

I bring over 18 years of clinical counseling experience and graduate education in Christian Counseling, Rehabilitation Psychology, and Industrial-Organizational Psychology. My training extends to Family-Divorce Mediation, and Guardian Ad Litem applications although I am not an attorney in order to assist with the complexities of mental health challenges in divorce, custody and seperation contexts. For those seeking to restore their relationship, my Gottman relationship training focuses on helping distressed couples improve communication, reconnect, repair relationship injuries, and explore reconciliation.

My experience includes working within private practice, psychiatric hospitals, dual-diagnosis and residential programs, healthcare, and military settings. I have supported attorneys, doctors, police officers, engineers, CEO's, professional and paraprofessional workers, college students, educators, health care professionals, and veterans and active-duty service members and military families.

I work with couples, adults, seniors, adolescents, veterans, and professionals facing relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, chronic illness, men's issues, workplace stress, life transitions, and faith-related concerns.

My approach is compassionate, practical, collaborative, and solution-focused. Together, we identify patterns contributing to distress, develop practical skills, strengthen healthy coping, and work toward meaningful change.

I accept Blue Cross Blue Shield, United HealthCare, Optum, Medicare, TRICARE, and many other insurance plans. Coverage can be verified before services begin.

You may look like you are holding everything together while feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or exhausted underneath. I work with adults navigating trauma and PTSD, anxiety, depression, substance use and recovery, co-occurring concerns, and difficult life transitions.

With 19 years of behavioral health experience, I bring extensive experience in addiction and recovery and am trained in EMDR through the Francine Shapiro EMDR Institute. I understand that people are more than a diagnosis and that the ways we learn to cope often make sense in the context of what we have lived through—even when those same patterns are no longer helping us today.

My style is warm, genuine, and direct. I offer a nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard while also doing meaningful work toward change. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, and I tailor therapy to your needs, goals, strengths, and readiness.

I offer IN-PERSON APPOINTMENTS in Goodyear, Arizona, serving the West Valley, as well as virtual therapy throughout Arizona, Wisconsin, Colorado, Michigan, Florida, and New Jersey.
