Dr. Vallejo is a bilingual (Spanish/English), bicultural licensed psychologist based in Wisconsin. She works with adults of all ages presenting with a variety of concerns, including challenging relationships with families of origin, difficulties with understanding and expressing emotions, first gen and immigrant experiences, race-based stress, ADHD, concerns with physical health, and mood disorders.

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, chronic stress, burnout, life transitions, chronic health concerns using a lifestyle medicine–informed approach. Many clients feel overwhelmed managing both mental health symptoms and physical conditions, while balancing work, relationships, and caregiving demands. Often high-functioning yet exhausted, they carry a significant mental and physical load and feel disconnected from their needs or direction. This work focuses on restoring stability by addressing the behavioral and lifestyle factors that influence overall health.

I specialize in supporting people navigating trauma, addiction, and tough emotional seasons. As an APSW and SAC-IT in Wisconsin, I bring training in Youth-Oriented Substance Abuse and Trauma Counseling, as well as Brainspotting. In our work together, we’ll look at how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors connect—especially around substance use, trauma, and patterns that feel hard to change—so you can feel safer, more understood, and more in control of your life.

I'm excited to support you in your mental wellness journey! I have lived experience with birth trauma and mental health issues. I love kids and mommies! I see moms who are pregnant and postpartum up to 2 years. I also see children ages birth to 17. For infants and toddlers, parents or caregivers are present because the treatment focus is the relationship between them, not just the child.

Welcome! I specialize in providing care through evidence-based therapies tailored to your unique needs. My approach combines compassion, collaboration, and creativity to support healing and growth in a safe and affirming space.

I provide a welcoming environment for individuals of all identities. I have specialized knowledge in working with LGBTQ+ individuals and offering education on harm reduction practices.

I’ve been providing individual, and group therapy services to ages 11 + for the last 5 years. I specialize in working with trauma, attachment disorders, AODA issues, ADHD, and chronic emotional dysregulation. I’m trained in a number of therapeutic approaches including DBT and practice from a relational-cultural framework.

Hi, I’m Jennifer — Your Professional "Life-Untangler"

Let’s be honest: taking the first step toward therapy can feel a bit like showing up to a party where you don’t know anyone and you’re pretty sure you’re underdressed. I’m here to tell you: Come as you are. Whether you’re currently holding it all together with caffeine and sheer willpower, or you’re ready to finally unpack that "baggage" you’ve been dragging around since 2014, I’ve got you.

The "Official" Stuff

I hold a Master's in Behavioral Health Psychology from Carroll University. For the past 4 years, I’ve helped people navigate the messy, non-linear, and occasionally ridiculous parts of being human. I specialize in helping:

• Expert over-thinkers (I see you).
• High-achievers who are secretly running on fumes.
• The "Carriers": Those navigating anxiety, sadness, loss, or the sheer exhaustion of caring for everyone but themselves.

How We’ll Work Together

• For Individuals: If your current coping strategy is "ignore it until it explodes," we should talk. We’ll move you from "barely treading water" to actually enjoying the view.
• For Couples — Note: I treat individuals here via insurance on Headway. For couples therapy, I offer self-pay options directly outside of insurance—reach out to discuss rates!

I’m a fan of bad jokes, overpriced lattes, and really old cats, dogs, horses, goats, chickens, etc. etc. If you’re looking for a therapist who is grounded, direct, and doesn’t use "clinical-speak" to describe your life, reach out and let’s get to work.

I am passionate about helping clients create an understanding and confidence in their mental health journey.

I’m Anushka Fernando, LPC, licensed in Wisconsin, Texas, and Colorado. I help individuals and couples with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns, offering both online therapy and in-person sessions. My approach combines evidence-based strategies with mindfulness and compassion. I have a special passion for supporting immigrants and first-generation clients in balancing cultural values with personal growth.

I have been a therapist for 23 years, and I still consider it a privilege to sit with people during the hardest and most tender parts of their lives. My style is warm and down to earth. I am not the therapist who nods silently for 50 minutes. I will ask real questions, laugh with you, and tell you the truth kindly when you need to hear it.

Much of my work centers on anxiety, depression, stress, women's issues, family relationships, grief, chronic illness, end of life concerns, and questions of identity and culture. If you are carrying something heavy, you do not have to explain it perfectly for me to understand it.

Outside my office, I am usually with my two corgis, cooking with my husband, or trying a new restaurant with him. We also love travel and live music. I make art, wander art festivals with my girlfriends, garden and make herbal medicines, read constantly, practice yoga, spend as much time in nature as I can, and yes, I keep a very tidy island in Animal Crossing.
