Trauma and PTSD
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'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.

Hi. I'm Mary, a Licensed Professional Counselor working with growtherapy! I am a therapist working in Private Practice and contract with growtherapy and others, to see clients throughout Wisconsin most of the week. 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. I really enjoy working with those who primarily have situational and emotional difficulties 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 that we can work things out with. When you feel you're ready, I'd like to help.

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.

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.

I help clients make sense of what they’re going through, heal from what’s been heavy, and figure out how to move forward in a way that actually feels good and meaningful to them. My style is warm, honest, trauma-informed, and grounded in tools that truly work—without it ever feeling cold or clinical. I’m really glad you’re here. You don’t have to do this alone.

I am a licensed mental health and addiction counselor with a background in the psychobiology of addiction and a strong focus on helping individuals create meaningful, lasting change. My work blends evidence-based therapy with a trauma-informed, nervous-system-aware approach, recognizing that healing often involves more than insight alone. I am Level 1 Trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and use parts-based work to help clients understand internal patterns with curiosity and compassion rather than self-judgment. I am also a Certified Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) and Rest & Restore Protocol provider through Unyte Listening Therapies, offering listening-based interventions that support nervous system regulation, emotional resilience, and a greater sense of safety and connection—particularly for individuals impacted by trauma, anxiety, or chronic stress. My therapeutic style is collaborative, supportive, and individualized. I work primarily with adults navigating addiction, emotional regulation challenges, relational difficulties, and life transitions. Together, we focus on increasing self-awareness, strengthening internal resources, and building skills that support sustainable change both inside and outside of therapy.

I provide counseling services for children, teens, and young adults who are navigating the many challenges that come with growing, changing, and finding their footing in the world. Many of my clients seek support for anxiety, depression, stress, low self-confidence, or major life transitions. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel seen, heard, and understood. When working with children and adolescents, I often use a play-based and developmentally appropriate approach. Play, creativity, and interactive activities allow younger clients to express themselves in ways that are natural and comfortable - especially when putting feelings into words is difficult. My approach to therapy is collaborative, strengths based, and rooted in authenticity. I believe meaningful progress happens through trust, connection, and collaboration.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Wisconsin rather than a city like Milwaukee?

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.

Will my therapist take insurance?

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.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

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.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

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.

What happens during the first therapy session?

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.
