Therapist

Virtual • Wisconsin


Starting therapy takes courage, and I want you to know that you do not have to have everything figured out before reaching out. You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, anxious, discouraged, or simply tired of carrying everything on your own. Wherever you are in your process, my goal is to meet you there with warmth, curiosity, and respect.

I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, ADHD, grief, relationship challenges, substance use, eating concerns, stress, sleep difficulties, mood changes, and major life transitions. I believe that healing is not about becoming a different person. It is about reconnecting with yourself, understanding your patterns, and building the tools to move through life with more confidence, clarity, and self-compassion.

In our work together, you can expect a supportive space where you feel heard, encouraged, and gently challenged when needed. I bring both compassion and practical guidance to therapy, helping you better understand what is keeping you stuck while also creating realistic steps toward change.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Milwaukee

Finding the right therapist in Milwaukee starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you want support for a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, or a life transition — or whether you're looking for general mental health care. From there, look for a licensed provider (such as an LPC, LCSW, psychologist, or psychiatrist) who has experience with your specific needs and offers the session format you prefer, whether that's in-person or virtual.

Milwaukee has a large and varied mental health provider community, with therapists practicing across neighborhoods like Bay View, Wauwatosa, the East Side, and West Allis. Narrowing your options can feel overwhelming when so many directories list providers who may not be accepting new patients or taking your insurance. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach, specialties, and style — so you can feel more confident about the fit.

Therapy in Milwaukee can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most straightforward ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session depending on their plan. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and every provider listed is accepting new patients.
