Hello! My name is Laura Lininger, LCSW. I attended Indiana University and got my BA in Psychology and then moved on to Tulane University in NOLA for my Masters in Social Work. I have worked for many years doing child and adolescent therapy and then later added working with adults to the services I provide. I believe my child and adolescent therapy background has been a great foundation for working with adults who are dealing with childhood trauma or family of origin issues. As for treatment approaches, I use Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and EMDR. I also include a lot of mindfulness practice in my work with clients. I am proud to provide a safe environment for all races, genders, religions, and clients from the LGBTQ community.

Hi, I’m Brianne, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the founder of BEAUTIFUL MINDS THERAPY & CONSULTING, LLC. I specialize in working with adults who struggle with OCD, anxiety, panic, and related challenges. Over the past decade, I’ve had the privilege of helping individuals navigate these difficulties using evidence-based approaches such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and psychoeducation. My clients often describe me as warm, approachable, and down-to-earth. I believe therapy should be both structured and supportive—a space where you feel safe to open up while also being encouraged to challenge the patterns that keep you stuck. I balance empathy and compassion with practical strategies, always tailoring treatment to fit your unique needs and goals. In our work together, I aim to help you understand your symptoms, develop resilience, and reconnect with the parts of life that matter most to you. Whether that means facing fears through ERP, practicing mindfulness with ACT, reshaping unhelpful thought patterns with CBT, or cultivating self-compassion through CFT, I provide tools that you can apply both inside and outside of sessions. I know it can be overwhelming to take the first step toward therapy, especially when anxiety and OCD already take up so much space in daily life. My role is to walk alongside you—helping you untangle the noise, embrace uncertainty, and create lasting change. Together, we’ll work toward building confidence, strength, and freedom so you can live a life guided by your values rather than fear.

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 the state. 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 Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD)?

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. For example, your selected specialty, Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD), is filtering therapists in Wisconsin that work with patients with similar concerns.

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 to expect during your first 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.
