Hi, I'm Teresa. You have taken the first step on your journey to health and healing. It takes strength to take that first step, often the most difficult step, to ask for help. I want to help you to learn to manage your struggles and feel in control of your life. Let me tell you a bit about myself:
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wisconsin. I have a BA degree in Psychology from the University of Wisconsin - Madison and a MA degree in Community Psychology - Professional Counseling from Alverno College. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma, anger management and ADHD. I have also helped people who have experienced sexual assault trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is compassionate and caring, I will not judge you or tell you what to do. I want to help you determine and achieve your goals. I believe in a client centered approach, this is your time, I will be there to guide you along the way, you will decide the path to take. I believe the therapeutic relationship is primary. I will work to build a trusting relationship with you. I believe in an open and honest relationship and I encourage you to share your honest feedback with me so that I can meet your needs and expectations.
It takes courage to seek help to manage your struggles. I want to help you achieve a fulfilling life. I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Teresa welcomed me to counseling with open arms and a big smile. She has made my first experience a stress-free one and has affected my life in very positive ways.

I appreciate Teresa so much. She has helped me realize so much in such a short amount of time. I always dreaded therapy or counseling (anxiety still tries to get the best of me) because I have always felt like “another client”. I feel so much more than that with Teresa. She makes me feel worthy and helps me realize I AM WORTHY. She guides me on how to have those hard conversations with the people I need to. I’ve learned and put so much of what she has told me into consideration and even into action and I can honestly say I feel a lot more hopeful about life and living life AS ME. I truly appreciate Teresa and her time .

After having Teresa as a therapist I can say with certainty that I am more comfortable in my personhood as a whole. She has allowed me to allow her to make an impact on my life and the way I view myself and the world around. It has made all the difference. I appreciate her and my first experience of therapy deeply. I feel as if I stand under a new sun.
