Are you looking for the right fit in your next next therapist? Hello, my name is Drea and I am a proud three-time graduate of Mount Mary University. I have 15 years of experience treating clients of all ages. I received my Master’s Degree in Counseling and Clinical Mental Health. Choosing and trusting someone to help you move forward through difficult times is a big decision. Everyone who enters therapy is looking for their “right fit” when looking for a therapist, which I fully acknowledge and take very seriously. My top priority is ensuring you feel comfortable enough to be open during our time together.

I am passionate about helping those who are introspective, emotionally-inclined, and curious. I care about helping clients move beyond the surface in therapy to reach a deeper level of truth that they haven't yet spoken. Too often, therapy glosses over the fact that, at times, life is painful and messy. As much as we might want to avoid this, I strive to remind clients that we are better off trying to embrace this, and we might be surprised by what comes from doing so.

Dana believes that all individuals, regardless of their past or the challenges they may currently be facing, deserve to live a life that feels meaningful and authentic – a life where they are aware of and empowered by their strengths, values, and inherent dignity. During times of hardship or change, it can be so easy to lose sight of who we are and dismiss the things and the relationships that are most important to us. Dana’s goal as a therapist is to empower her clients to identify barriers, rediscover their core values, and let go of any self-limiting beliefs.

I enjoy working with clients who may feel something is missing in their life, they don’t feel satisfied with where they are at, may feel overwhelmed or stressed, or just can’t exactly pinpoint why they don’t feel they are at their best. Low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, conflict, significant life stressors and much more can easily deter us from our goals in life and it takes some work to get us back on track. I believe in self-empowerment and a more holistic approach to overall well-being. With a strong collaborative, strength based, and client-centered approach, I can help you begin the life you deserve.

Has talk therapy not always met your needs? Working with the nervous system holistically through EMDR, somatic experiencing, & breathing offers gentler and more effective means to heal. Therapy is a unique opportunity to be vulnerable and learn to experience a healthy relationship, with a foundation of trust and compassionate experience. A diagnosis is not necessary, in my professional opinion, to work through the issues "in the tissues". Confidentiality offers you peace of mind and sets a foundation of trust between us. My work is about freeing the weight of the past & future anxieties, so you can be you again and enjoy life more.

Are you someone whose life looks “good” from the outside, and yet it still feels like something is missing? You’ve accomplished a lot, but you’re not feeling the fulfillment you expected. Anxiety or a big life change – maybe a breakup, new job, new marriage, parenthood, change in family dynamic or move – has highlighted that you’re still not living the fullest, most authentic life you want to be living. Something is telling you that you need to make a shift (even if you’re not quite sure what it is). You want to gain deeper insight into yourself, your past and you’re ready to start living wholeheartedly and joyfully here and now.

I have 20 years of experience in mental health and I work primarily with adults.
Often we seek counseling when we have reached a breaking point, but as it is with medical care, we deserve to be treated for our mental health before a problem gets too big. As a counselor, I provide a relaxed, safe, and understanding environment. I work best with clients who value personal growth and healing and who are open to feedback, self-exploration, and psycho-education.

I have been a licensed Professional Counselor in the Milwaukee area since 2011, assisting adults, adolescents, and couples through a wide variety of mental health issues.
In the demanding, hectic world that we live in, the first thing we tend to sacrifice is self-care. I am passionate about helping individuals reprioritize themselves and discover healthy ways to cope with the more difficult aspects of life, as well as help them discover the importance of developing connection between the body and mind for overall wellness. I work hard to create a safe, welcoming environment for my clients so that they may gain valuable insight, motivation, and confidence to achieve their goals and live their best lives.

I work with adults in individual, couples and family therapy.
I believe that difficulties develop within relational contexts influenced by early relationships and current interactions. Good treatment is goal focused, and based on the here-and-now distress that brings you to treatment while also being curious about how the present is influenced by the past. Treatment must occur within a safe professional relationship. In my work, the therapeutic relationship is an important part of the healing process. Through on-going conversations and shared curiosity my clients and I broaden our understanding of their current distress and future aspirations. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.
