My name is Tyler White, LPC, and I have been providing guidance to others for over 5 years through consultation and therapy (groups and individuals). I specialize in anxiety, ADHD, sport and performance, trauma, self-doubt, grief, and other life changes that causes emotional conflict in life. I work with kids and adults who may be dealing with anxiety, past experiences, or big life changes and want a place to sort through it all. Many of the people I meet with are trying to better understand themselves, improve relationships, or find a clearer path forward when life feels uncertain. My goal is to create a space where you can show up exactly as you are—no pressure, no judgment. Clients often describe me as calm, thoughtful, and easy to talk to, someone who listens closely and genuinely cares about helping them move toward the life they want.

Hello, my name is Julee. I believe the most meaningful way I can help clients is by first taking the time to truly understand them-their goals, challenges, and what success looks like from their perspective. Every client comes with a unique set of circumstances, and I aim to approach each situation with curiosity, empathy, and a commitment to listening before acting.

Hello! Thanks for pausing on my profile. I'm Mary, a therapist working in Private Practice. I contract with GROW Therapy and others, to meet with people virtually, throughout Wisconsin. I've been doing this for quite some time now, maybe 25 or so years. My husband and I have a 3 year old grandson that keeps us running! We get to take care of him two days a week. The rest of the time, I devote to hiking and fishing with my mate & dog, between talking with people like you, maybe looking for an ear and heart to listen and work through situational or emotional difficulties. Often, I see many who are having trouble with anxiety, stress, ego-strength and unresolved relationship or family issues. Anxiety is so prevalent in our society now, it's epidemic. Relationships are nearly vital for our survival. I say nearly, as many of us suffer here so much, as well. Conflict in relationships, families, friendships, can sometimes be brutal. We all have known people that let us down; people will abandon us; people sometimes die on us; the ideal is that we all have a trusted therapist, at one time or another, with which we can work things through. When you feel you're ready, I'd like to help.

My approach is client-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed, incorporating techniques from CBT, attachment-based therapy, play-based interventions, mindfulness, and emotional regulation skill-building. I work with children and adults experiencing anxiety, behavioral challenges, emotional dysregulation, self-esteem concerns, social difficulties, trauma-related experiences, and life transitions. I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an evidence-based therapy approach used to help individuals process distressing experiences, trauma, anxiety, and overwhelming emotions in a safe and supportive way. EMDR helps the brain reprocess difficult memories so they feel less emotionally overwhelming and disruptive in daily life. My goal is to help children and adults feel empowered, understood, and capable of navigating life with greater confidence, healing, and emotional well-being.

I became a psychotherapist because I believe deeply in the human capacity to heal, grow, and create meaningful change. For me, therapy is a collaborative process- one where we work together to understand the patterns that keep you feeling stuck and uncover new ways of approaching life with greater clarity and compassion. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and centered on building a safe, supportive relationship. I know that reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a therapeutic experience where you feel genuinely seen and understood. Together, we’ll explore not only the challenges you’re facing but also the strengths, values, and resources you already carry within you.

Asking for help can be uncomfortable and anxiety inducing. That is absolutely okay. Some of the hardest feelings and conversations are the most important ones. My experience in the field has provided me with the opportunity to provides services to individuals of all different backgrounds, experiences, and struggles. Also, I have worked with victims and offenders of violence. Therefore, I often work with those who have experienced trauma (past or present), managing day to day needs, coping skills, conflicts, relationships, and life transitions. I have connections with a number of other providers, therefore if I am not a fit for you or if you have close family that is interested in services, I am happy to connect. My work also includes providing expert witness services for domestic violence cases in Wisconsin.

Hello, and welcome. I’m a licensed counselor with over a decade of experience walking alongside individuals as they navigate life’s emotional ups and downs. Since 2014, I’ve had the privilege of supporting people from all walks of life—teens, young adults, middle-aged individuals, and older adults—through a wide range of mental health challenges including mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, psychosis, and substance use. I’ve worked in diverse settings—from traditional in-person offices to virtual and teletherapy spaces—because I believe mental health support should be accessible and flexible. No two journeys are the same, and I strive to meet clients where they are, both literally and emotionally. What I’ve learned through the years is that people aren’t looking for someone to “fix” them—they’re looking for someone to really listen, understand, and help guide them back to themselves. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected, or just not quite like yourself, my role is to help you explore those feelings safely and constructively. My approach is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and practical strategies. I work with you to build tools that help manage symptoms, reduce distress, and make everyday life feel more manageable again. Most importantly, I want to help you reconnect with the routines, relationships, and goals that matter most to you. Therapy isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress. It’s about finding the courage to take that first step, and continuing to show up for yourself. If you're ready to take charge of your mental health, I’m here to support and empower you every step of the way.

Hello, I'm Amy. I believe therapy works best when it begins with meeting you where you are. Each person brings a unique history, personality, and way of experiencing the world, so no two therapy journeys are exactly alike. Together, we'll explore the patterns that keep showing up in your life, the stress they create, and the ways they may be affecting your relationships, your body, and your sense of agency. We'll look beneath the surface, pay close attention to what your nervous system may be communicating, and use the therapeutic relationship itself as a space for growth, healing, and self-discovery. I believe meaningful change begins with understanding yourself more deeply and developing a different relationship with your own mind.

Hi, I’m Candace — a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s in Community Counseling from Lakeland University and a Bachelor’s in Sociology from UW-Stevens Point. I’m a straightforward, no-fluff therapist who believes the best work happens when you feel safe enough to be fully yourself. My clients often tell me I’m not a “typical” therapist — and they’re right. I’m progressive, direct, sometimes sarcastic, and always focused on creating a space where you don’t have to pretend. I work well with people who want honesty, humor, and real conversations — whether you’re dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, burnout, identity exploration, or just feeling stuck. I’m an animal lover (my dogs are basically coworkers), I have tattoos, and I’m not easily rattled. You won’t shock me, and you don’t have to filter yourself here. If you’re looking for a therapist who keeps it real, creates a safe space, and isn’t afraid to challenge you when needed — with compassion and maybe a little dry humor — I might be a good fit.

Hi, I’m Dr. DeAnna (Dee) Brookhart. If you’re here, chances are life feels heavier than it should. Maybe stress won’t let up, anxiety keeps you on edge, or sadness has dulled your energy. Perhaps your relationship feels strained, or addiction has taken more space than you want it to. Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to carry it by yourself. I’m a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Illinois, Wisconsin and Utah, and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Other Drug Counselor with nearly 30 years of experience. Over the years, I’ve supported individuals, couples, and families through struggles like anxiety, depression, addiction, marital or couples issues, workplace trauma, and the challenges of blended family life. I also work with clients navigating personality struggles or the lasting effects of stress and trauma. My approach is warm and collaborative. We’ll clarify what matters most to you, set realistic goals, and work at a pace that feels safe. I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies — always adapted to your needs. Sessions with me often include open conversation, practical coping tools, encouragement, and sometimes even humor when it helps ease the weight. I see healing as holistic. That means looking at not only your thoughts and emotions, but also how stress shows up in your body, how you connect with others, and how your daily habits shape your well-being. I work best with adults and couples ready to make changes, even if they’re not sure where to start. Outside the office, I love cooking, reading, traveling to the beach, and spending time with my family. I have ADORABLE grandkids! And of course Charlie, my Golden Retriever. If you’re ready to feel lighter, find clarity, and rebuild what matters most, I’d be honored to walk that path with you.

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Wisconsin. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Wisconsin from Madison to Green Bay! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Wisconsin.

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
