Coming to counseling is you fighting to feel happy, and I can help you.

Greetings! My name is Jennifer Brau and I am a licensed clinical social worker and substance abuse counselor in Wisconsin. I received my undergraduate degree in social work from the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire and graduate degree in social work from the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee. I chose coursework focused on direct practice with children and families and clinical practice for mental wellness and substance use. My professional experience includes work in child welfare, treatment foster care, parenting concerns, addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, and other adjustment or life transition concerns.

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.

My approach to psychotherapy is to help my clients understand their conflicts by getting at the roots of their wounds, so they are able to treat themselves with self-compassion and healing. The goal of therapy is to not only unburden the pain one carries, but to help transform inner negative beliefs and cultivate radical self-love.
