LGBT therapists in Kenosha, WI

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.

As a fully licensed therapist for 4+ years Ashley has had experience working with a wide range of clients. Recently she has begun to focus on women's health, ADHD and those with addiction issues.

I take a collaborative, client-centered approach grounded in curiosity, compassion, and practical support. My goal is to create a space where you can speak openly, feel understood without judgment, and explore what matters most to you at a pace that feels manageable.

I believe meaningful change comes from combining insight with action. Together, we’ll look at the patterns, experiences, and pressures shaping your life while also building concrete tools you can use between sessions. I tailor my work to each person rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all process, drawing on your strengths, values, culture, and goals.

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.

I serve a broad population of clients coping with crisis, trauma, faith-based issues, relationship and marital issues, substance use and addictions, anger management and emotional dysregulation, career decisions, self-esteem and self-efficacy skill development, and other challenges clients are facing.

My philosophy is meeting clients where they are, without bias or judgment. I believe the client is the expert in their own life, and I am here to walk beside, providing the tools and techniques to support finding solutions and healing. I use an integrative theoretical approach to tailor services to meet the clients' needs. I work with clients from a holistic approach.

I have a Ph.D. in Counseling Education and Supervision, a Master's in Professional Counseling, a Masters in Health Care Administration, and a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing. I am licensed in Wisconsin as a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Registered Nurse.

Hi, I'm Alex! My path into this work began in early childhood development, where I learned just how much our earliest relationships and experiences shape the way we move through the world as adults. That foundation still informs everything I do; I'm endlessly curious about the "why" behind how we feel and behave, and I hold that curiosity with warmth and zero judgment.

Outside of my practice you'll usually find me behind a camera. Photography taught me to slow down and pay attention to small, beautiful details, and to appreciate that the same scene can look completely different depending on where you're standing (a lesson that I find turns out to be pretty useful in therapy as well). I love being out in nature whenever I can and at home I share my space with a cuddly cat who supervises most of my day.
