Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Kenosha, WI

Hello, I’m Dr. Priyanka Parikh, and I’m glad you’re here.

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist (PsyD) with extensive experience providing evidence-based, compassionate care to adults from a wide range of backgrounds including Veterans, students, individuals from traditionally underserved communities, and people navigating chronic medical or mental health conditions.

I began my career working with children and quickly expanded my expertise to include adults and couples. Throughout my 26 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have seen the incredible power of the human spirit to overcome trauma and unexpected life struggles. Watching my clients transition from "surviving" to "thriving" remains the most inspiring part of my work.

I have worked primarily with adults, older adults, and adolescents on issues of mental health that may be impacting one's ability to function in day-to-day life such as: depression, anxiety, other mood and thought disorders, suicidality (for individuals as well as those bereaved from suicide losses), interpersonal violence, LGBTQIA+ support, topics surrounding race and culture, hoarding (both individuals affected and their loved ones), criminal justice system-involvement, and trauma (individual, intergenerational, and community).

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have experience working in outpatient clinics, inpatient psychiatric settings, residential substance use treatment, as well as community re-entry and job coaching support programs for the last 10 years.

I have been practicing for 17 years, primarily seeing adults and senior citizens. I operate from a person-centered, emotionally-focused basis. You are the expert on your life, and my goal is to help you with that. I utilize experiential and psychodramatic techniques.. These methods allow for role plays and visualizations. Such techniques increase your ability to get more deeply in touch with your issues and see situations clearly. When you reenact what happens at home, in the safety of the therapy office, solutions become clear and your voice becomes strong.

I bring over a decade of professional experience to therapy along with my own life experiences, empathy, understanding, and hopefully a little humor along the way.

While my license is as a Marriage and Family Therapist, I strive to live my own life as authentically and intentionally as I can as a parent, family member, and friend; and I bring those same values into the therapy room.

I believe every person has a story worth telling and deserves to feel heard without judgment. It is truly an honor to witness the strength and resilience my clients possess, and I never take for granted the trust they place in me by allowing me to be part of their journey.

With years of experience in providing compassionate and evidence-based therapy, I am here to support you on your journey toward healing and growth. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping children, adults, and families navigate life’s challenges.

As a former Division I track and field athlete, I know what it's like to push yourself to the limit — and what happens when the pressure starts to feel like too much. The expectations, the constant performance, the feeling that you have to be "on" all the time.

I also know what it feels like to not quite fit in, to question who you are outside of the roles you've been playing. That's what led me to this work — a deep understanding that sometimes, the hardest race you run is the one inside your own mind.

My approach is rooted in real experience and genuine care. I create a space where you can drop the mask, breathe, and start figuring out what feels right for you.

Hi there! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wisconsin, and for the past 21 years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside individuals, couples, children, and families as they work through life’s ups and downs. I’ve helped people navigate a wide range of challenges — from anxiety, depression, and stress to relationship struggles, family conflict, trauma, and major life changes.

My name is Kati Niekerk and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), based in Madison, Wisconsin. I view therapy as a collaborative effort between the therapist and the client. My aim is to help clients identify their values and goals, and then create a plan to help them get closer to those values and goals. I use CBT and mindfulness to help clients better understand themselves and their environments, and DBT to build the skills needed to live as the best versions of themselves.

• I help clients better understand their thoughts, emotions, and patterns while building coping skills that feel useful in real life.
• I support kids 8+ and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional dysregulation, behavioral concerns, and stressors, with a specialty in helping adolescents, young adults and adults.

If you or your are struggling with emotional regulation, big feelings, knowing how to regulate, school or work stress, issues navigating peer relationships, work place relationships, ongoing worry, focus, patience and wanting to change patterns- I am the therapist for you. I am looking forward to connecting and supporting you,

I come with over 34 years of Clinical eperience. I am open to help anyone willing to do the work to change and make a better life for themselves.

Hi! I’m Jamie and I’m really excited to be a part of your journey. I have a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice and a master’s degree in professional counseling. I have over four years of experience providing psychotherapy and about six years of experience working in corrections. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work with people from so many different backgrounds and at very different points in their lives.

When it comes to therapy, I’m pretty down-to-earth. I’m supportive, empathetic, and I definitely believe there is room for humor in therapy too. I want our sessions to feel like a place where you can just be yourself. You don’t have to have the perfect words, know exactly what you’re feeling, or have everything figured out before you walk through the door. That’s what we’re here to work through together.

I believe one of the most important parts of counseling is meeting people where they are. Life gets messy, and sometimes we just need someone in our corner who will listen, support us, challenge us when we need it, and remind us of the strengths we may have forgotten we have.

I’m looking forward to getting to know you, hearing your story, celebrating your wins (even the little ones!), and helping you work toward becoming the version of yourself you want to be.

I am a nurturer by habit, and I listen closely to each person’s unique story. Together, we can make sense of what you have experienced and identify satisfying solutions, so you feel heard, held, and more confident moving forward. Acceptance and gratitude guide my therapeutic stance, while hope helps us keep moving ahead. I will meet you with compassion, respect, and genuine care throughout our work together.
