Quartz Therapists in Madison, WI
Warm greetings to you, neighbor. I imagine looking for a counselor is not how you want to be spending your time right now. You would rather be using your skills and superpowers. Whether it's stress from work, challenges in relationships, or that critical inner voice holding you back, you’re not alone—and change is possible. My ideal client is ready to break free from the overwhelm and envision a future that aligns with their true values.

When we struggle with stress, anxiety, and trauma, it can interfere with our relationships and ability to function. I work with adults to work through these difficulties in a way that supports their needs. My goal is to provide a welcoming space where people feel safe and heard, and that is inclusive and intersectional—a space that welcomes folks with a variety of identities, experiences, and perspectives, whether that is as an individual or within the context of their relationships.

Are you tired of feeling sad and anxious? Are you ready to live the life you want instead of the life you feel stuck in? Are you seeking support as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community?

For the past 20 years, I have worked with families, couples, adults, and adolescents. Using cognitive-behavioral theory with narrative techniques, I help empower clients to explore areas within their lives that present challenges and inhibit change, and assist them with finding solutions that will work for them. However, I also believe that the therapeutic relationship is a vital component within any program, which means that I believe that any work needs to be collaborative between myself and my clients. I am certified to deliver trauma-focused treatments as well as providing services to help manage stress and anxiety.

Here is how I help: I offer grounded and compassionate therapy that is open, present, and realistic.

As a therapist, I so value the healing potential of human connection. Emotion and suffering are natural reactions to life, and the ability to sit with and process life’s challenges with another person can be a gift. Sharing moments of loss, shame, joy, and disappointment can lead to stronger self-acceptance and connection with others. I strive to be welcoming, open, and empathetic to all clients who walk through the door.
