Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Oconomowoc, WI


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.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Sheboygan, WI


I’m a licensed therapist with experience in both hospital and outpatient settings, working with individuals navigating mood challenges, anxiety, life transitions, and the everyday weight that can come with trying to hold everything together.

I approach therapy as a collaborative and honest space where you don’t have to filter or perform. I’ll meet you where you are, while also helping you gently look at patterns, emotions, and experiences that may be keeping you stuck. I value real conversations, consistency, and creating an environment where you feel understood, supported, and able to show up fully as yourself.

My goal is to help you build insight, feel more grounded, and move toward a life that feels more manageable, aligned, and genuinely yours.

Hello! I'm Grace, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Indiana and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin. Throughout my career, I have worked extensively within hospital-based Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP). This experience has given me a deep understanding of the profound sense of helplessness and struggle one feels when caught in the middle of an intense emotional storm.

Luciana Gonzalez

Therapist

Virtual • Wisconsin


I specialize in helping individuals navigate the overwhelming waves of anxiety, depression, everyday stress management, and the deep complexities of grief or loss. Together, we will also use a supportive, trauma-informed lens to safely process PTSD and find healthier paths through substance use and addiction. My ultimate goal is to walk alongside you with an open heart and compassionate perspective.

I show up as a genuine, non‐judgmental person first and a clinician second. My passion for this work comes from having someone who once offered me the space to talk, heal, and grow—and I believe everyone deserves that same space.

Roberta Bronecki

Therapist

Virtual • Wisconsin


I’ve spent my career supporting people who have experienced trauma, mental health, and substance use issues. I have used a mix of traditional talk therapy, art and adventure therapies to assist in the healing process. I have been in practice since 2002 after completing my master's in social work at Simmons University in Boston, Massachusetts. Prior to completing my master's I worked in the social work field, working as a case manager and substance use counselor, and volunteering at my local domestic abuse program answering the crisis hotline, facilitating community support groups, and assisting in the annual walk for women's safety. I work with children, adults, families, couples, and groups. My style is natural and organic, giving you space to heal in a way that feels right for you. My approach is person centered. My focus is to help you build trust and safety at your own pace and create a strong therapeutic relationship for you to heal.

Alex Robison

Alex Robison

Therapist

Virtual • Wisconsin


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.

Paige Parr

Therapist

Virtual • Wisconsin


If you're stuck in a career that doesn't fit, navigating a major life change, or trying to move

forward when a disability or health challenge has made the path less clear, I get it. I've spent

over a decade helping people work through exactly that. I work with adolescents and adults who

are dealing with career uncertainty, employment barriers, life transitions, and the anxiety and

depression that often come with feeling stuck. My background includes working directly with

individuals with diverse abilities and needs, and I've partnered with schools, employers, and

community organizations, so I understand the systems you're navigating, not just the feelings.
