Therapists for college students near 53715
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with more than 15 years of experience in community mental health. I have worked across a wide range of settings, including outpatient therapy, crisis services, and intensive community programs, and have supported people through some of the most difficult moments of their lives. In addition to providing therapy, I have supervised clinical teams and led mental health programs, giving me a broad perspective on what truly helps people heal. I work with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I provide LGBTQ+ affirming care and am committed to creating a space where clients of all identities feel respected, understood, and safe to be themselves. My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy should feel like a steady place where you can be honest about what you’re going through—without judgment or pressure to be anything other than yourself. I focus on building a strong therapeutic relationship and helping clients develop practical tools while also making space for deeper healing and self-understanding.
You may look capable and successful on the outside, but inside, you feel overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious, or unsure of yourself. Many of the students I work best with are used to setting high expectations for themselves. You may put pressure on yourself to succeed, struggle with perfectionism, or feel like you are falling behind even when others think you are doing well. I also enjoy working with international students and students navigating different cultures. You may be balancing school with family expectations, relationships, questions about who you are and where you belong, or the stress of adapting to life away from home. Past difficult experiences may also be affecting how you feel and respond to stress today. In our work together, you do not have to have everything figured out. We can slow things down, understand what is happening beneath the surface, and find practical ways to manage difficult emotions and everyday stress. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, understand yourself more deeply, and approach your life and relationships with greater confidence and choice.
I offer a calming presence, safe space, coping skills, and acceptance. I often use an eclectic approach, blending different techniques and theoretical approaches to fit your needs, as every individual is different. I understand that every person has their own unique experience and perspective. I am willing to explore with them every step of the way to meet their goals at their own pace. I will work to encourage, support, and validate the process and potential for change alongside you. I am hoping to work with individual's who are old enough to utilize technology, looking for an additional support with their anxiety, depression, motivation, family dynamics, life changes, emotional regulation, self-identity, and trauma.

We know therapy can be nerve-wracking and sometimes awkward, so our approach is rooted in best practices while also being super person-centered. This human first angle will most likely include comfortable conversation, humor, and slight ADHD trains of thought. Our goal is to model authenticity which means, no poker faces over here! Think less suit and tie, more hoodies and pixie dust (or whatever your vibe is). Here, we want to connect with you in a unique way that gives you the empowerment and unnecessary permission to be the you-est you! We want to hear all about your quirky or nerdy hobbies and interests, help analyze those darn complicated relationships and existential thoughts we all have, and encourage you to vent, laugh, cry, cuss, and just breathe.
