I’m a licensed psychologist with more than three decades of experience in psychotherapy, psychological assessment, and trauma-informed care. My background includes extensive work with adults, adolescents, and children across private practice, medical settings, and the VA’s PTSD clinic, where I provided both treatment and disability evaluations. I completed my doctorate at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln in an APA-approved Counseling Psychology program and an APA-accredited internship with broad training in assessment, psychotherapy, and multidisciplinary collaboration. I specialize in trauma, mood and anxiety disorders, dissociation, family-of-origin issues, and helping people untangle long-standing patterns that keep them stuck. My style is warm, open-minded, and direct, meeting people right where they are while helping them move toward where they want to be.

Therapist

Virtual • Wisconsin


I graduated with my MSW from Aurora University in 2017, and I’ve continued to deepen my clinical training ever since. I’m trained in a variety of evidence‐based therapeutic approaches—including Gottman, EMDR, ACT, Motivational interviewing, and harm reduction—which allows me to tailor therapy to each person’s needs and goals.

Clients often tell me they appreciate my calm, collaborative style. I value getting to know who you are, understanding what matters most to you, and creating a space where you can explore challenges without judgment. My work is grounded in curiosity, compassion, and the belief that people grow best when they feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Wisconsin

Searching for therapists in Wisconsin starts with finding someone whose experience fits what you want to address. Across the state, available care can vary between larger cities, smaller towns, and rural areas, so it helps to compare therapists by specialty and approach. You may want support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you review Wisconsin therapists, look for training, specialties, and therapy styles that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for a specific population.

Practical fit matters, too. In Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, and other parts of Wisconsin, you may find different options for in-person and virtual therapy based on therapist location and schedule. Some people prefer meeting in an office, while others choose virtual sessions because they fit more easily into work, school, caregiving, or travel routines. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their session style. These details can help you decide whether the therapist’s approach and schedule fit what you’re looking for.

The cost of mental health care in Wisconsin varies, and therapy can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. With Headway, you can search therapists by insurance, add your plan details, and see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and every therapist listed is accepting new patients, making it easier to find a therapist in your network, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
