Wisconsin Therapists who take GTEB

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 love life even when it is difficult, uncertain, and unpredictable. I experience it as a precious gift and live in constant awe of the quiet miracle of existence. I believe in hope, believe in kindness and compassion, and hold an essentially optimistic view of the human spirit. As a practicing professional, I am continually moved by the beauty and depth of psychotherapy. The psyche remains a mystery that can never be fully captured, and yet it endlessly inspires me. For me, psychotherapy is not only a profession—it is a philosophy, a spiritual path, and a way of living with attention, humility, and devotion to inner truth.

I am an individual, relational and sex therapist. Therapy is my second career and my passion. I am currently licensed in PA, DE and WI. I am a certified sex therapist through the AASECT (American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors and Therapists). I have a license pending in NJ as well. I am in a partnered relationship and we are married. We have a dog (Harley) and two cats (Braveheart and Smalls). We live in southwestern Chester County, PA. I am a White, cis-gender female. I use she/her pronouns. I am queer identified, Kink/BDSM identified, and non-traditional relationship identified. I offer both virtual and in-person sessions. My physical office location is in Media, PA. My dog, Harley, attends in person sessions with me. She is very friendly and loves people but also knows boundaries that are set with each client. Native land acknowledgment: The Media office and my virtual home office are located in the native land of Lenape Haki-nk (Lenni-Lenape).

Hello. I am a follower of Jesus Christ, and I'm also a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Illinois. I have worked in the field of Social Work for 25 years at the Bachelor's level, including case management for at-risk youth, CPS investigations and medical social work. I received my Master's of Science in Social Work from the University of Louisville and have been practicing five years. At this time, I provide individual therapy to adults dealing with anxiety, depression and trauma among other issues. We work to recognize triggers/barriers to successful living and then learn to effectively reframe these in order to be a better version of yourself.

I’m a licensed therapist with over eight years of experience in mental health and substance abuse counseling. I specialize in supporting individuals through healing, personal growth, and finding deeper purpose in their lives. My approach is compassionate, culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, and rooted in evidence-based practices. I’m deeply passionate about helping others navigate life’s challenges and build lasting, meaningful change. I’m glad you’re here.

I've been blessed to have wonderful professional positions throughout my career (see roderickhaferphd.com). Most recently I was Vice-Chair of the Psychiatry Department at the University of Wisconsin. I enjoy working with all client presentations and believe that the "connection" with those I treat is critical to therapy success. I think a 15 to 30 minute free consultation would be the best approach to determine "our fit" in working together.

With nearly two decades of experience in my practice, I employ an eclectic approach tailored to meet diverse client needs. As an active researcher in the mental health field, I have authored numerous first-author publications in expressive arts. My current research focuses on new and emerging tools for the treatment of anxiety. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, and I am dedicated to delivering the most effective and innovative services to support your mental health and well-being.

My name is Dr. Tim Strait. As a husband, a father, a professor of clinical mental health counseling and an active clinician, I use authenticity, intuition, experience, and compassion as my primary tools to guide you to the change you want. I harness scientifically supported methods for improving mental health and pursuing wellness. Our working relationship will always start with forming a genuine, trusting foundation based on your lived experiences. My job will be to carefully listen to you and understand you. After that, our work will focus on defining what you think is helpful. I’ll offer suggestions and feedback, but the direction, depth, and pace of therapy will always be up to you.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with adults who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally drained. Many of the people I support are navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD-related overwhelm, identity concerns, or relationship stress. My approach is supportive, practical, and collaborative. I focus on helping you gain clarity, better understand your emotional patterns, and build coping skills you can use in your everyday life. Therapy with me is not about rushing change or having all the answers right away. Sessions are paced to meet you where you are and are focused on steady, meaningful progress over time. My goal is to create a calm and supportive space where you can feel understood while working toward changes that feel realistic and sustainable.

Life doesn’t come with a map—and sometimes the road takes unexpected turns. Maybe you’ve hit a season that feels heavy, confusing, or lonely. You want to feel better, but you’re not sure where to begin. That’s where I come in. I’m Stacey Wright, a Marriage and Family Therapist with over 25 years of experience helping people find light in dark moments and hope when it feels lost. Together, we’ll sort through what’s weighing you down, uncover your strengths, and help you move toward a more balanced, peaceful, and joyful life. Therapy with me is a mix of real talk, gentle guidance, and creative problem-solving. I’ll meet you where you are—whether you’re navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship stress, or just trying to make sense of a big life change. Together, we’ll sort through the tough stuff, build new tools, and uncover the strengths you already have (even if you can’t see them yet). If faith is part of your story, we can bring that into the process, too. I offer a space where your spiritual values can guide and strengthen your healing journey—but it’s always your choice, your pace, your path. My office is a space to breathe, cry, laugh, and start again—a place where you can show up exactly as you are. My goal is to help you find relief, balance, and maybe even a spark of joy again. When I’m not in session, you’ll probably find me thrifting for hidden treasures, crafting something colorful, cheering on my favorite teams, or playing games with friends and family. Because life’s too short not to mix a little fun into the healing process! If you’re ready to take the next step toward feeling better, I’d be honored to walk with you. Let’s begin this journey together.

Hello, I'm Emily! I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist and I have 10 years experience in the therapy field. I enjoy working with couples, families and individuals coping with a range of challenges, including substance use, anxiety and related disorders and trauma. I have a wide range of experience with various mental health challenges as well as working with those of multiple different backgrouds.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience helping adults heal from trauma, attachment wounds, and patterns that no longer serve them. I work with individuals who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves, often after years of prioritizing others’ needs or adapting to unsafe environments. I have a special interest in working with LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent clients, and I provide care that is affirming, respectful, and attuned to identity and nervous system differences. My approach is trauma-informed and collaborative, integrating Internal Family Systems, attachment-based work, and practical coping tools to support self-trust, emotional regulation, and meaningful, sustainable change.

Fully licensed and accepting new clients in NC, WI, and IA. LGBTQ-friendly therapist. Do you wish you could lessen the effects of emotional pain without having to relive it? Internal Family Sytems is an evidence-based, intrapsychic approach rooted in the multiplicity of mind, based in systems thinking, and a very psycho-spiritual (not religioous) approach. Using art & journal therapy, EFT & relaxation & meditation, we will work together to calm your mind and free parts of you that are frozen in time. I believe each of us have both a unique set of gifts and a world view shaped by past experiences and present circumstances. Let's get together and chat about how to quiet your mind and make your life more fulfilling. As an evidence-based relaxation and meditaiton trainer, I am uniquely qualified to help you learn to cope with grief, anxiety, past trauma, women's issues, and vicarious trauma experienced by veterans and first responders. My approach is eclectic, using interventions from a broad base of solidly-grounded, accepted theoretical orientations, including Cognitive Processing Therapy, an evidence-based, brief modality for resolving PTSD symptoms. I see clcients for anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and women's issues. Through sessions together, I will collaborate with you to assist you in recognizing your individual strengths and strive to empower you with the self-awareness and self-confidence to pursue your dreams. i also practice Internal Family Systems, a means of healing PTSD without having to revisit the event. this is evidence based and rooted in both Attachment Theory and Family Systems Therapy. I take a person-centered, creative, non-judgmental approach to creating a safe space for counseling sessions, allowing you to unburden yourself and share your goals, while helping you to see how your uniquely shaded lenses of experience have color your perceptions.

I’m Amanda, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience helping adults create meaningful change in their lives. I specialize in working with the LGBTQIA+ community and supporting clients with mood disorders, identity concerns, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative and affirming, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Reality Therapy to provide both practical tools and a safe space for growth. Together, we’ll focus on helping you feel more balanced, connected, and empowered to live in alignment with your values.

I have thirteen years of clinical experience counseling individuals struggling with issues including anxiety, depression and trauma. I greatly value providing you with an authentic and judgement free experience. I find my clients appreciate my direct approach. In other words, I will give it to you straight. We will work towards what you want in life and that often means moving through what one historically avoids. What lies on the other side of the pain is the life you were meant to live. I also enjoy incorporating humor into our work together. Anxiety, depression and trauma often steal our joy and sense of humor. Joy and humor can be found again.

Let's realize your mental health and general life goals together. I have no agenda except to hopefully offer useful perspective, knowledge, and witnessing of the change you hope to realize. I may be especially useful to you if you feel there is a spiritual or existential basis to the change you desire. I think it's important that you experience a sense of progress towards your goals as a result of our work together so let me know how it is going for you. Also, if you are interested, there are practices and readings I can recommend to help with self esteem, mindfulness, anxiety, stress, sleep issues, etc.

I have over 15 years of experience serving diverse communities across the lifespan in the Milwaukee area. My work is grounded in a deep respect for culture, lived experience, and the resilience of individuals, families, and communities. As a mother of two and a dog parent, I understand firsthand the complexities of balancing caregiving, identity, and personal well-being. I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience into the therapy space, creating a supportive, affirming environment where clients feel seen, heard, and valued. I am passionate about working with people from all walks of life and am especially committed to culturally responsive care that honors each client’s unique story, strengths, and goals.

I believe that meaningful progress in therapy starts with a strong therapeutic rapport. By fostering trust and connection, I help clients feel comfortable and confident in the work we do together. I began working as a therapist in 2016. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Wisconsin. I have had the privilege of working with clients of all ages, and am specialized in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. My goal is to create a supportive and collaborative therapeutic space where my clients feel safe, heard, and empowered to be the best version of themselves.

I am deeply committed to walking alongside my clients as they explore and address the challenges they face. My approach is grounded in deep listening, providing thoughtful feedback, and helping you gain a clearer understanding of yourself and your experiences. I believe true change happens when we are able to confront and process difficult emotions, and I am here to support you every step of the way. In my practice, I use effective therapeutic techniques like Brainspotting and Culturally Competent approaches to help you work through the root causes of emotional distress. These methods allow for deeper healing and lasting change, helping you move past obstacles and embrace personal growth. I also ensure that your cultural background is always respected and incorporated into our work, creating a safe space where you can feel understood and supported. Having struggled to find a therapist who truly embodies these values, I am dedicated to providing an inclusive, affirming, and safe environment for all of my clients. My goal is to help you live more authentically and confidently, fostering a sense of empowerment as you navigate your unique journey toward healing.

Are you seeking support on your mental health journey? With over a decade of experience as a clinical mental health counselor, I offer compassionate and personalized guidance to individuals, children, adolescents, couples, and families. As a trauma-certified counselor, I specialize in helping clients navigate mood disorders, personality disorders, anxiety, and depression. My client-focused approach ensures that your unique needs and goals are at the center of our work together. I completed my clinical education through Northwestern University. Remember, therapy is your journey, and I'm here to support you every step of the way. Let's embark on this path towards healing and a brighter future.

I am a Bilingual (English-Spanish) licensed therapist with a passion to provide person-centered, strengths based, trauma informed and culturally sensitive treatment. I am a strong believer in the idea that we have the solutions to our problems within and I encourage clients to do introspection to find their answers. I strive to create a safe, warm, compassionate environment for clients to heal, explore and learn. I enjoy working with individuals of all ages and genders. However, as a working Latina, mother of 3, I have a passion for working with women and minorities. I graduated from the University of New England with a master's in Clinical Social Work and I have over 5 years of experience working with individuals with severe and persistent mental illness, substance abuse and co-occurring disorders. I have been trained in person-centered treatment, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Informed Treatment, Motivational Interviewing and Solution Focused Treatment. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, suicide ideations, trauma, and relationship issues, among others. I also have extensive training and work experience in crisis intervention and suicide prevention.

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.

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.

As a licensed therapist in Wisconsin, I support people navigating complex emotional landscapes. You deserve a space where you can make sense of your emotions, and honor your story as you connect back to yourself. I work with individuals experiencing patterns of anxiety, attachment wounds, grief and loss, challenges with self esteem and executive functioning overwhelm. My primary therapeutic foundation draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), while I also encourage CBT when helpful. I am trauma informed, and use parts-based language and somatic methods to support deeper healing (Not IFS certified).

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.

Hello! My name is Adam Lenker. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, licensed in Texas and Wisconsin. Whatever you are dealing with, know that I am here to listen and support you, through harnessing of compassionate self-awareness. I believe strongly in encouraging self-empowerment, focusing on choices and their results. Central to my theoretical orientation (Person-Centered, Existentialist) is a focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, being solution-focused, as well as encouraging mindfulness. A little bit about how I approach therapy. In creating an alliance with a new client, I adopt a stance of listening and confronting situations non-judgmentally and with compassion, acknowledging that this work is about you, and your life's goals and struggles. My practice is built around partnership with my clients, working hard to establish and maintain this therapeutic alliance. I do this by taking cues of direction, pace and depth from the people with whom I work, and allowing for immediacy to inform what is and is not working.

Life can look completely fine on the outside while feeling heavy, overwhelming, or exhausting on the inside. If you’re the one who holds everything together but feels anxious, burned out, or disconnected from yourself, you don’t have to carry it alone. I work with adults who are tired of just pushing through and ready for genuine support. In therapy, I show up as a real person first- someone who understands that life is messy, timelines don’t always make sense, and stress, self-doubt, and overwhelm are part of being human. As both a licensed therapist and a U.S. Air Force Veteran, I understand pressure, responsibility, and what it’s like to always be the “strong one.” My approach is warm, steady, and honest. You don’t need to have everything figured out to start. We’ll take things one step at a time—making sense of what’s been weighing on you and building practical, realistic tools you can actually use in daily life to feel calmer, more grounded, and more like yourself again. I especially enjoy working with adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or stretched thin by work, relationships, caregiving, or major life transitions. Therapy with me isn’t just about talking-it’s about finding relief, understanding patterns, and creating changes that feel doable and sustainable. This is a space where you can finally exhale, feel understood, and reconnect with yourself. I currently have daytime openings this week for adults who are ready for support. If therapy has been on your mind, this may be the right time to take that step.

Hi, I’m Dr. D. I help high-achieving professionals, executives, healthcare workers, first responders, ethnic minorities and indigenous people who are often successful in their careers but feel stuck or dissatisfied in other areas of life. Many clients struggle with burnout, trauma, anxiety, depression, or recurring patterns that interfere with work, relationships, or daily routines. I know what it feels like to face these challenges—and I bring both personal insight and professional expertise to help you get unstuck and reclaim your life. I hold a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, an MS in Applied Psychology, and an MA in Professional Counseling. My integrative, trauma-informed approach combines Psychodynamic therapy (PD), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). This approach helps clients identify unhelpful patterns, leverage existing strengths, and implement actionable strategies for real-world, lasting change. I take a direct, no-nonsense approach, ideal for clients who are ready to take action immediately. Therapy starts in the very first session—you’ll leave with clarity, insight, and actionable steps toward personal growth, healing, and wholeness.

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 Gina. I hold a degree in mental health counseling and have over 20 years of experience in the behavioral health field.

My goal is to offer compassionate, individualized support to help you navigate life’s difficulties and move toward greater well-being.

I listen and try to understand your situation and learn what it's like to be you. I can offer suggestions but I won't tell you what to do. I believe that my clients know what they need to do to help them heal, it might not be clear right away but after I am able to understand your problems we can work together to find solutions. It's a big step to seek counseling and to go into therapy. I respect everyone who wants to improve their mental health and well being. It isn't easy to seek help and allow oneself to be vulnerable and share ones' experience. I have listened to thousands of people and I am delighted hear everyone's story to see how I can help.

I am an Illinois and Wisconsin Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who has extensive experience working with individuals, groups, couples, and families. I earned my Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology from Benedictine University, where the prominent perspective was person-centered therapy. I have worked with several different client populations including couples with marriage difficulties, adults struggling with depression, anxiety, and other life adjustment issues, physically and sexually abused adolescents and adults, adolescents with mental health issues related to school, home, adjustment, or mental illness, and even adolescents and adults on the verge of suicide. In working with these populations, I have gained vast experience in family dynamics and feel it is important to focus on the whole system, especially when a child is involved. I have also been trained in DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and I feel many adults and adolescents could greatly benefit from learning these skills. God is our ultimate counselor and His word is referenced and prayed from as part of the healing process.

I see therapy like you are driving the car and I am in the passenger seat riding copilot offering new tools, organizing the tools you already have and providing a different perspective. More than any modality of therapy the success therapy is dependent on how you, the client, feel in the relationship with your therapist. It is not something to tough out and I encourage you to work with someone you feel you connect with, can be open and honest with.

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.

As a mental health therapist, my passion is to help clients find peace and purpose in their lives. Whether a client is struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship problems, stress, grief, identity formation or other emotional and/or mental health concerns, my goal is to come along side them. We will work together to help the client identify their strengths and build upon those. Additionally, identifying coping skills for each client is a goal of therapy that works towards helping clients find their peace and purpose. This is typically done through Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy with a strengths-based approach in my work with clients. I have worked with clients of all ages through my time as a mental health therapist. As an adoptee, adoptive parent and former foster parent, I specialize in working with families formed through foster care and/or adoption and with individuals who are a part of the adoption triad.

I have been working as a therapist since 2011 after obtaining a master’s degree in professional counseling and master’s degree in Addictions Counseling which I achieved at Grand Canyon University along with my undergraduate degree in Psychology at the University of Arizona. My experience helping others navigate Trauma, Grief & Loss, Pregnancy, Infertility & Postpartum and a variety of other life struggles has brought me here to come alongside you as you transform. I offer a non-judgmental, compassionate space where you can explore, learn and create opportunities for change. I am a mother of 3 with only 2 living children. I understand the vulnerability that comes with sitting in the therapy chair and the courage it takes to heal. I am here to support you through active listening, validation, encouragement and skills development to improve your quality of life and help you achieve the life you wish to have.
