Female Therapists in Wisconsin Rapids, WI

Thank you for looking at my profile! Working in the counseling field for 28 years, the areas of concern that I have frequently seen are concerns of anxiety,depression, substance use, grief and loss, trauma, chronic pain and family/relationship issues. I provide a warm, safe environment to help you find a way to put the puzzle pieces of your life together to form the beautiful picture that you are. I work with individuals, couples and families using a variety of approaches including: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client Focused and Solution Focused therapy.

I work with all populations specializing in the areas of criminal justice, trauma and adversity, grief and loss, substance use, military veterans, sexual and physical violence along with challenges that face both the young and aging populations. I use an eclectic mix of therapeutic styles and embody a belief that each persons story and journey, is one that I am privileged to know and travel alongside. I seek to understand and support the goals and needs of those I work with, offering a holistic culturally informed team approach to each unique individual.

I believe that every person has the ability to grow, change and overcome obstacles in their life. Within the nurturing environment of a therapeutic relationship, individuals can deepen their understanding of themselves, while learning new ways to handle life's difficulties. I strive to be compassionate, non-judgmental, genuine and down-to-earth, so individuals feel safe and comfortable sharing their deepest feelings. If this is your first time seeking counseling, please know that I will help you feel as comfortable as possible.

Sometimes a seemingly minor event from childhood, or at other times major traumatic events that happen at any age, can overwhelm and stress us. Either immediately after or years later we start to feel the effects of these events. We may feel depressed or angry, feel anxiety or panic for no apparent reason, have unexplained physical pain, or experience difficulty sleeping or nightmares. These may start to interfere with daily life, work, and relationships. If some or all these are your experience, you are certainly not alone.
