In Person Therapists in Mequon, WI

Sometimes it's hard to always be "the strong one". Maybe you're so busy taking care of others, you've forgotten about taking care of yourself? Suddenly you notice your health is more of an issue and there is no easy explanation. You become overwhelmed, irritable or depressed with tasks and events that used to be no problem. Mind - Body - Spirit. They are all linked, like a chain. When one link is weak, the chain breaks down and needs attention.

At times it can feel like you’re hiding in plain sight. On the outside, you are admired for your attention to detail and ability to juggle multiple demands with apparent ease. You are an overachiever, going above and beyond, all while silently grappling with inner chaos. You're an expert in the art of people-pleasing, a well-honed skill that serves as a way to navigate interactions and avoid the sting of rejection or misunderstanding. You carefully plan your days to maintain some sense of control and order. Yet, despite your achievements and the admiration of others, you still feel a deep sense of inadequacy, and you are tired.

I have a strong passion for working with individuals who have experienced trauma and who are motivated to find relief and better coping strategies. Additionally, I enjoy helping individuals who are struggling with grief, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, emotional dysregulation, and relationship concerns.

Are you struggling through a loss or life transition, or hoping for healing and connection with yourself and others? Maybe you have unresolved trauma that's making you feel stuck? Or maybe you're in a relationship and want something different together. As humans, we want to experience connection and find a place of belonging and love. It's so important to create space to slow down, discover ways to hold life's complexity differently, and be compassionately curious about what’s getting in the way of what we truly want. It's never too late to explore being comfortable in your own skin and move toward growth and aliveness.

Trauma leaves us feeling numb and hopeless from ourselves and others. You’re someone who deeply desires safety with yourself and others but still find yourself plagued by trauma, feeling out of control of your emotions and reactions, and feeling shame that you can’t 'get it together.' You have an idea of how you want to show up in your relationships and life but have no idea how to get there. But you’re ready to make a change. You’re ready to no longer give trauma the final say. You’re ready to feel more grounded and safe and therefore have the relationships, job, and connections you ultimately desire. I want to help you get there.

You are busy, hardworking, and known to be capable. On the outside, you’ve got it together but on the inside you’re wondering how to keep your head above water. Stress, anxiety, or distress from obsessive-compulsive (OCD) disorder is too much to take on alone. You're saying "yes" more than you should and losing track of who you are while you succeed in making things ok for everyone else. You have a mind that you can’t turn off and you could really use a moment of peace. Emotions are coming up and out at times you didn't plan. It's hard to be joyful because you wonder, "when is the other shoe going to drop?" Something’s got to give.

The therapeutic bond is a healing space that is completely safe. That means, you can do close to no wrong in our relationship. This is a space that you are held with unconditional positive regard and should not be afraid to share things that you feel you may have done “wrong” that week, or avoid sharing something you weren’t able to accomplish. I want you to feel that you can tell me your deepest darkest thoughts and find that sometimes the best work comes when you are faced with things that make you uncomfortable.

Getting to this point takes a lot of courage. It can be a LOT to try to find the therapist that is right for you. I get it - I’ve been in that seat, too. It's scary to be vulnerable and try something new. But it’s also a lot to keep living and feeling the way you are right now. So let’s make some adjustments and start you on your way to feeling and living better. Spoiler alert: no therapist has all the answers. Instead, let's find the answers together. Therapy is exactly that - working together. I'm here to guide you along your path and help you in the direction that you want, not tell you where to go.

I am the founder of the Relationship Center of Milwaukee, a group practice that focuses on providing couples with the skills, insights, and courage to develop themselves and their relationships. My 30-year experience as a psychologist and psychoanalyst has reinforced my belief that people heal, change, and grow in connection to others. Love relationships are simultaneously the greatest source of comfort and happiness in our lives, but also potentially the greatest source of intense stress and misery. Yet, we keep on trying. The thirst for good partnership is unquenchable.

I am an art therapist and licensed professional counselor who invites clients on a journey of self-exploration through artmaking and talk therapy. I am passionate about building self-concept, strengths, and coping skills in a safe, comfortable space where clients can feel creative and expressive. In art therapy, I value process over product, you may hear me say “trust the process”! Which means you don’t need to be an artist or “good” at art to participate, but rather explore yourself through art to uncover unconscious thought, create meaning and purpose, engage in conversations of process, strengths, and resilience.

With a comprehensive background in treating a range of mental health concerns, Culturally Diverse Counseling Center is committed to providing mental health and emotional support to individuals who are experiencing personal or psychological difficulties. Our Person-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral approach is designed to empower our clients to achieve their goals.

Currently accepting clients for ketamine assisted psychotherapy and psychedelic integration and psychotherapy. I would like the opportunity support you in reaching your fullest potential. By helping you reduce your symptoms of sadness, anxiety, anger, lethargy, and trauma, then replacing those symptoms with a life filled with health, wellness, joy, love, creativity, relationships and passion. As a uniquely trained ecotherapist, psychedelic integration specialist and yoga teacher, I bring a holistic perspective to mental health - including deeply connecting to our own mind, body and spirit, others, the earth, and a larger purpose.

If anxiety and fear have more control over your life than you do, you are not alone. Living with relentless-intrusive thoughts, scary images, paralyzing anxiety, and mental and health-related fears is exhausting. If you support a loved one suffering from OCD or anxiety, it can be just as painful. Being pregnant or a new parent adds additional stress and responsibility, which can make symptoms worse. Working with me, you will gain a better understanding of what is happening, reduce unwanted symptoms like anxiety, fear, and shame, and learn helpful tools and coping skills to manage all of it.

I am not associated with any big box therapy service. Something traumatic happened to you. Sometimes, you get triggered and feel like you’re back in the same situation, even though you know you’re not. Whether it was a sexual assault, a car accident, or a natural disaster, today, you’re anxious, depressed, on high alert, and not feeling like yourself. You can’t control it. Frustration is your daily companion as you try to live your life, and it derails you at every turn. You desperately want to move forward in your life, but you just don’t know how. You feel like you’ve tried everything.

Are you struggling with anxiety? Relationship issues troubling you? Going through a large life transition? I will work with you to discover what is interfering with your having the life you want. We will work together to achieve your goals and restore your sense of joy in activities, life and relationships.

I offer a personalized and holistic approach to therapy, moving beyond a clinical, symptom focused model. Working collaboratively we will tend to the roots, uncovering whatever it is that is stunting your growth and implement healing. I offer skill development practices that encourage self-regulation, self-knowledge, self-confidence, and self-efficacy that will aid you in your ability to heal and live an authentic, joyful life. When we know ourselves well, are confident in our ability to trust, change, heal and grow, we are better able to make choices that align with our true selves leading us to a life of purpose and meaning.

Going through a tough time? Feeling a little lost? Sometimes we feel stressed within relationships, unsure about life choices, or overwhelmed by responsibilities. You are not alone. We all feel this way at some point in life. Together we will figure out how you got here and how to get you on a path to a happy, balanced, and fulfilling life. I specialize in helping people navigate life challenges, particularly as they involve family-building and infertility.

Together, we can unravel the complexities of healing and rediscovery. Schedule a 90-minute session with me now.
