Therapists in Milwaukee, WI

Meadowbrook wants to extend a warm, inviting welcome as you take the first brave step on your journey towards healing and self-discovery. We understand that this decision did not come easily and that you might be filled with both apprehension and hope. Please know that you are not alone, and together, we will navigate through the complexities of your experiences, feelings, and thoughts. We hold a strong conviction that every individual is unique, with distinct stories, challenges, and aspirations. Our approach to therapy is tailored to your specific needs, goals, and pace.

I believe it is my role as a therapist to help support you in facilitating change in a nonjudgmental environment that offers accountability. We are a therapeutic team - you being the expert of your own experience and me being a sounding board for thoughts, feelings, and emotions. My therapeutic approach combines person centered therapy with aspects of cognitive behavioral (CBT), solutions focused, and dialectical-behavioral (DBT) therapies. This means we will implement skills for emotion regulation, communication, and facing anxiety while also making space to talk about your experiences.

What concerns are you struggling with that have negatively impacted your life? Have feelings of anxiety and depression become too overwhelming to manage? Or, are you a couple facing challenges causing you to question your commitment to each other? The person you are most intimate with may not know what you need in the relationship. Does your family fail to realize the unique connection they have with one another? Is there blaming and resentment because of unresolved conflicts? I am a compassionate professional who is invested in you and here to support you during your healing process

Relationships can get tricky at times, and when it becomes too difficult to figure out how to resolve it, seeing a professional trained to help couples and families can be very helpful. Trauma from our past can also affect present romantic, platonic and/or professional relationships. I believe that I am the counselor to help you address those issues and/or concerns if you are ready. It is important for me to let you to know that I will never force an issue to be discussed that you do not feel comfortable discussing.

Making impactful, long-lasting change can be difficult. Draining mental health symptoms, substance use, and trauma can contribute to making positive lasting change feel like an impossible and daunting task. I understand the importance of wanting to find that immediate relief, as well as identifying and treating the root of the problem. An essential part of our work is exploring the past and making connections between the past and present. I enjoy getting to know my clients as individuals, assisting them in their journey of learning about themselves, and helping them learn the skills they need to live a more meaningful life.

My practice is half children and half adults. Having fostered and adopted myself, I am particularly skilled to assist foster and adoptive family needs. I also use play, expressive arts, sand tray and music to assist in therapy. First responders, gender non conforming, clients with anxiety, depression, thought and mood disorders, are particularly welcome. I am located in the east side of Milwaukee near the lake.

Hey there, beautiful soul! Feeling like life's throwing too much your way lately? Take a deep breath. You're not alone in this. I'm here to walk alongside you through those tough times, especially those unique to us women.

I am a licensed therapist in the state of Wisconsin with over 25 years of experience in the mental health field. I am passionate about partnering with clients to help them through life's challenges. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where clients can freely explore their thoughts, emotions and challenges.

Are you feeling burned out, overwhelmed by your responsibilities, and searching for more happiness in day-to-day life? Is there something you wish to create...a balanced lifestyle, calm mind, healthy relationship? As an experienced Therapist, I will work with you to discover what prevents you from having the life you want. We will work together to achieve your goals and restore your sense of joy in activities, life and relationships.

Do you find it hard to prioritize yourself over others? Are you tired of being at the bottom of your own list of people to take care of? Maybe you're always looking toward the next goal to help you feel more fulfilled, but it never does. You've worked hard to get to where you are, only to feel confused because your success hasn't made you feel content. You're struggling with anxiety, your relationships, and feeling dissatisfied with your life. This can be frustrating, but things can get better.

Welcome! I am so happy that you are taking the hardest and most important step in your mental health journey - finding a therapist that is right for YOU! I work with a multitude of people from different backgrounds and goals. However, the ones that I find I have the most successful relationships with are young adults in their 20s-30s dealing with transitions into emerging adulthood. We are constantly bombarded with the push to be perfect (supermom, money mindset, 75 hard etc.) But why run yourself into the ground when you can live by your values and be your most authentic self? I can help you along that journey!

Many of our personal, emotional and relationship problems are simply caused by a lack of self awareness, adapting to new situations and negative thinking patterns. Healthier ways of thinking and having greater self awareness helps work through these day to day challenges. We have great strengths and gifts that are not always easy to notice or understand at first. Personal growth, developing coping strategies, improving communication and making positive life changes can enormously help resolve these issues. I hope to help you develop the best version of yourself.

My clients tend to be intelligent and insightful individuals who come to work with me because they suffer from despair and disorder. They have tried to resolve their troubles and cope with their uneasiness for a long time--often partly successfully, and against strong odds--but they have reached a point where they want extra support and insight in order to finally transform their suffering into meaningfulness and growth. With consistency, dedication, patience and focus, I help my clients achieve deep and lasting emotional transformation.

My approach to psychotherapy is reflective, curious, and non-judgmental. First and foremost, my job is to listen to you in ways that help you understand yourself, your experiences, and your relationships more deeply. You may be feeling anxious, depressed, overwhelmed, unfulfilled, disconnected from loved ones, uncertain about the future, or you may simply have a general feeling that something is off for you.

Right now, is the time to give ourselves permission to make changes that allow us to have control over our journey. As a Black woman & BIPOC therapist I am deeply passionate about treating mental health holistically. The mind, body, and spirit work together to bring fulfillment, but when the balance is off, things just don't feel right. Traumatic and challenging experiences in our lives can affect our nervous system, rendering us vulnerable, confused and at times stuck/frozen in fight and or flight responses to life. I personally know how beneficial integrating spiritual, mental, and physical health is to the healing process.

For many individuals, verbalizing their thoughts and emotions can be challenging and sometimes impossible. Art therapy allows clients to explore experiential techniques with new and familiar art materials in a judgment-free space. I trust that art and the creative process have the power to ignite empowerment and bring about positive change in people’s lives. No prior experience in art-making is required!
