Hello! My name is Tia Carlson. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed School Psychologist. I have over 20 years of experience working with children and adults. I became aware of my calling while in middle school. Since that time, I have devoted myself to the study of psychology, human development and helping others. I believe that everyone needs help and support at some point in their lifetime. I hope that I am able to be the support that you need in efforts to help you live your best life.

I would love the opportunity to get to know you and help your find your way towards healing and a values driven life. It takes courage to seek out a therapist. I strive to provide a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental space where people feel heard and supported. I offer individual virtual sessions, with the option of EMDR, to adults located anywhere in Wisconsin.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker and substance abuse counselor with more than a decade of experience supporting individuals and families through trauma, complex family dynamics, and major life transitions. Before becoming a therapist, I walked through many of the same challenges my clients face today—navigating family addiction, raising children as a single mother, juggling financial stress, and trying to build a meaningful career while holding everything together. Those experiences shaped not only who I am, but how I practice. They allow me to show up with a level of empathy, clarity, and groundedness that clients often say helps them feel understood in a way they haven’t experienced before. My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in evidence‑based practices like CBT, DBT, Attachment‑Based Family Therapy, and trauma‑informed care. I help clients understand their emotional patterns, strengthen regulation skills, and break cycles that no longer serve them. I’m especially passionate about supporting people who feel overwhelmed by stress, stuck in old relational patterns, or disconnected from themselves or their families. Many of my clients are navigating the impact of trauma, working through family conflict, or trying to rebuild connection with their children or teens. I believe healing happens when people feel safe, respected, and empowered. In our work together, you can expect a space where your story is honored, your strengths are recognized, and your goals are taken seriously. Whether you’re trying to create stability, deepen relationships, or move toward a life that feels more aligned, I’m here to support you with compassion, structure, and a belief in your capacity to grow.

I have worked in the front lines of the overdose crisis as a therapist for over 20 years. I have led clinics, founded non-profits, started peer networks, done advocacy and policy work; but always the most meaningful work I've done is working with clients. Being able to walk with someone on their healing journey and see their capacity for change is such an honor. I have the lived experience of healing from severe opioid and stimulant use disorder, anxiety, depression, and complex trauma. I know that my recovery started with people that unconditionally loved me and when I learned to love myself. There is no place for shame or judgement in the work that I do. I will always treat you as the expert on your own experience. I know that reaching out for help is an act of bravery. I am constantly amazed at the resilience of humans.

I'm Liz, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has vast experience working with individuals throughout the lifespan. I specialize in trauma-informed therapy for adults navigating the lasting impact of trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Many clients I work with are used to holding it all together. You may be successful, responsible, and the one others rely on. However, underneath, you may feel anxious, depressed, exhausted, or like you’re constantly pushing through. You may notice patterns of overthinking, struggling to slow down, struggling to cope, or feeling disconnected from your emotions or sense of self. Often, these patterns are rooted in past experiences that your mind and body learned to adapt to in order to keep you going. Trauma is not just something that happened in the past; it can live in the body, shape how you relate to yourself and others, and influence how safe the world feels. I approach therapy through a relational, trauma-informed lens. Together, we will begin to gently untangle patterns, process past experiences, provide coping and resources to help you reconnect with yourself in a way that feels more grounded, authentic, and sustainable.

Hello, and welcome! My name is Amber Stewart, and I’m a licensed professional counselor (LPC) out of Western Pennsylvania; I'm also licensed in Wisconsin. I specialize in anxiety, self-esteem, depression, and trauma. I want to help you go from just tolerating the symptoms of your anxiety, depression, or trauma to living fully in the present and having a healthy relationship with yourself. You deserve to live the life you envision for yourself, and I want to help you do that by exploring the areas you’re struggling with, teaching you ways to cope, and reducing the impact that these symptoms have on your life by addressing them at their core. I believe that underlying most (if not all) mental health concerns is some kind of trauma – and, there are many studies that support my belief that trauma is connected to depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns. I invite you to learn more about my approaches to therapy, trauma, and trauma therapy by visiting my website: (www.everystepforward.com). And, please feel free to reach out to me with any questions.

I’m so glad you’re here. My goal is to create a space where you can rest, restore, and refocus—no matter what stage of life you’re in. I’m passionate about supporting individuals as they navigate trauma, stress, and life’s challenges, while helping you reconnect with yourself after difficult experiences. Using a variety of approaches, I focus on helping you regulate your nervous system and find a sense of balance, clarity, and healing.

Hi all, I’m Sara! I’ve spent the past 9 years working in the mental health field, across inpatient, outpatient, emergency room, and residential levels of care. I am licensed in 4 states (MN, IL, WI, and MA) I strive to create a space where individuals feel safe, understood, and empowered to explore their experiences with curiosity and self-compassion. My passion for this work comes not only from professional training but also from personal experiences that have deepened my appreciation for resilience, compassion, and authentic human connection. I also believe therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time—when appropriate, humor can be a meaningful part of the healing process and help make difficult conversations feel a little more approachable. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing OCD, anxiety, and hoarding disorder, and frequently use evidence-based approaches such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) to help clients build confidence in facing fears and reclaiming their lives.
