Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Wisconsin

I work to provide you a safe, non-judgmental environment in which to work. Each of us are unique and complex. I see my job as helping you to develop tools and skills to deal with your complex life. I am able to help you in the areas of anxiety, depression, motivation, substance use concerns, self-esteem and confidence, grief/loss, and adapting to life changes, to name a few. My goal is to be approachable, accepting, and act as a guide through the process. Much of our power to be happy or unhappy depends on our ability to put our experiences in perspective and find our own path to heal.

We will focus on the strengths you have and how I can help you grow through changing self-defeating thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We will work together to identify your goals, what the barriers are to moving forward, and developing needed skills to navigate through or around barriers. We are all human and at times need the help from an objective party to get through our struggles and to grow stronger!

As a Board-Certified Psychotherapist, I believe that prioritizing your mental health is the key to minimizing everyday stressors and maximizing happiness. Pursing help is the hardest part, congratulations on taking the first step! I have been practicing trauma-informed, strength-based modalities for several years. I enjoy working with everyone.

I approach therapy with warmth, curiosity, and deep respect for your unique story. I work with people across all stages of life who are navigating the effects of trauma, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, or feeling disconnected from themselves. My goal is to help you rebuild safety, rediscover connection, and move toward a more grounded, authentic sense of self. Alongside traditional therapy, I also offer Equine-Assisted Psychotherapy, which can provide a meaningful, body-centered way to explore healing and self-awareness.

I believe everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and understood. Whether you're navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, or simply need someone to talk to, I strive to create a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where healing and growth can happen.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wisconsin with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Wisconsin. I view therapy as a collaborative process—you are the expert on your life, and it's a privilege to walk alongside you. My goal is to help you feel supported, empowered, and hopeful as you move toward meaningful change.

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.
