Licensed to practice in 2 states and accepts 53 insurances. Specializes in Anxiety, Grief, Trauma and PTSD and 9 more.
What would it feel like to be heard, to know that you are valued and cared about and to believe that there is real hope for your future? Are you struggling, anxious, grieving, overwhelmed? You are not alone. Life is really hard right now. You deserve self care and support. Difficult and painful experiences can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and others. As both a Wisconsin and Florida licensed mental health counselor (LPC, LMHC), I offer you a safe place to talk about and explore all those concerns.
Together we will identify specific issues and needs to establish achievable goals. Working collaboratively throughout the counseling and coaching process, we will continuously evaluate your progress as you become stronger and more confident in all of your life decisions.
From me you can expect warmth, empathy, humor and the use of practical tools that you can start applying right away. I will bring to every session an earnest desire to facilitate your growth and healing and will walk alongside you so that you never feel alone. Many clients tell me they feel comfortable talking to me because I am not judgmental, and I really listen to their stories.
I work with individual clients from all walks of life. I have more than 20 years of counseling experience specializing in depression, anxiety, trauma recovery, grief and loss and lifestyle adjustments. Most recently I have been serving military families and first responders. I applaud you for taking this first step toward wellness.

Supportive
Clients have varying needs and respond to techniques differently. Sometimes CBT, talk therapy, EMDR or other techniques are best. In all sessions my goal is to be supportive as we take this journey together.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
We are as we think we are is not just a metaphor. Our behaviors reflect how we think and we definitely can change both of those.
Christian Counseling
Many people benefit from appying faith principles to their current issues. I am happy to provide this as an option but I never force it on anyone.
Grief Therapy
I spent 7 years as a Bereavement Counselor for my local hospice. In addition, over the years, I have experienced many grief events including the loss of my husband. I understand that the waves of grief may continue for a very long time. My main goal is to listen to your story and help you navigate the next steps in your life.
EMDR
EMDR is a powerful therapy to address trauma issues. I use it when the client is open to it and when it seems the most appropriate therapeutic intervention.

I really appreciate Edna and I am so glad I found her. For the first time ever, I think I a making real progress.

Edna is such a breath of fresh air. She knows exactly what to say, all while being a TREMENDOUS listener. She is full of wisdom, guidance, and clarity to a variety of situations I have discussed with her. After a hiatus from therapy, we picked back up and she made me feel welcomed as always.
