I've been practicing as an LPC in a private community-based clinic for the last 17 years. My specialty has been with traumatized youth in a group day treatment setting. I've also utilized play therapy with children while focusing on trauma resolution and healthy attachment with caregivers. Long ago and far away, I was trained in Levels I and II of EMDR. I'm admittedly rusty and not sure how this could be utilized in messaging, but I'm willing to explore how it may be integrated.

Thanks for taking a moment to read about me. I am licensed in Wisconsin with over 10 years of professional work experience. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology, a master's degree in mental health counseling, and a doctorate in counselor education and supervision. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Clinical Substance Abuse Counselor (CSAC), and Independent Clinical Supervisor (ICS). I've worked in a variety of clinical settings including correctional, outpatient, group homes, and volunteered as a counselor at the Salvation Army. Besides being a licensed counselor for over 10 years, I have been a supervisor for over 7 years, and was an adjunct instructor for a graduate counseling program. I have been working on Betterhelp since 2022. My theoretical foundation consists of cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered, motivational interviewing, and strength-based approaches. However, I utilize what is the best fit for the individual and enjoy making adjustments to meet different individual needs. I believe 'good' therapy shouldn't feel like therapy and should feel more like a helpful conversation. I've had an interesting life that led me to be a counselor. These experiences provide me motivation to help others and a dedication to the counseling profession. I absolutely love helping people and would be honored to provide any support to those in need.

I am a licensed counselor and a certified rehabilitation counselor operating in Wisconsin. I’ve worked in many colorful and exciting fields and alongside and for many incredible people: I most recently served as a counselor with the state's Division of Vocational Rehabilitation. I've practiced within the community (Madison, WI) as a case manager and a forensic mental health counselor for approximately 4 years - helping folks that had severe and persistent mental illnesses navigate their wellness and the courts. Prior to becoming a counselor, I worked as an agent for the Department of Corrections. I was a trained financial planner, a licensed airplane mechanic (A&P), and I've moved pianos up and down hot narrow stairways in Houston, TX. My style and substance are client-centered and very heavily influenced by Rogerian or humanistic psychology. I am not the boss within my clients’ lives. And I strongly believe in counselors maintaining unconditional and positive regard for all clients, past, present, and future, but additionally, to maintain rationalism about what may be going on in someone's life, and above all else, that we be 100% honest with all of our people.
