Hi there! I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Wisconsin with 30 years of professional experience. Yes, three decades. That’s a lot of coffee, a lot of listening, and more than a few metaphorical fires extinguished. I’ve worked at the community, state, and federal levels, helping clients tackle everything from stress and anxiety to relationship drama, family feuds, trauma, LGBTQ+ related issues, and the occasional existential crisis. I’ve also had the honor of supporting active-duty military personnel, veterans, and their families—some of the strongest, most resilient people I’ve met. As a solution-focused therapist, I’m all about finding practical, future-oriented answers. No endless rehashing of the past here—unless, of course, you really want to talk about your high school prom. Instead, we’ll focus on your strengths (yes, you have them!) and create a game plan to tackle challenges head-on. My approach is like GPS for your mental health journey: clear directions, no judgment if you miss a turn, and always recalculating toward positive change. Here’s the truth: you’re the expert on your own story. I’m just here to help you uncover those hidden strengths and turn them into superpowers. It takes guts to seek out a better, happier life, and you’ve already made the hardest move by taking that first step. So, if you’re ready to tackle life’s challenges, find some peace, and maybe even laugh a little along the way, let’s get started. I’m here to support you, empower you, and maybe crack a joke or two while we figure it all out together.
