Therapy

I believe in taking a client-centered approach to counseling, where we work collaboratively  to identify your goals and develop a personalized plan for treatment.  

I will use a variety of therapeutic modalities in order to customize the therapeutic experience to your unique needs. I will constantly adapt to your needs from one session to another, likely using a combination of CBT, DBT, EFT, Brainspotting, Mindfulness, and other approaches.

Online sessions are held from the safety of your own home or other environment such as work or even your vehicle. For some, telehealth sessions are more convenient. 

You choose in person or telehealth for each session, depending on what works best for you. 

If you choose telehealth, you must be located in Wisconsin, per current licensing restrictions. This may be changing due to the Interstate Counseling Compact, but for the current time, you must physically be in WI during your telehealth session.

Combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) can offer a powerful approach to couples counseling. We will work to establish a safe and empathetic environment where couples feel comfortable expressing themselves by respectfully exploring each partner's  thoughts, emotions, and behaviors related to the issues they're facing in the relationship. We identify negative patterns of communication or behavior that contribute to relationship distress and guide couples in developing new, healthier ways of relating to each other based on mutual understanding and empathy.
