I am a licensed professional counselor who has been licensed in the state of Wisconsin for the past 11 years working as a clinical case manager, pyschotherapist, and clinical supervisor. I have worked with people with a wide range of experiences including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, short term and long term stress, and sexual acting out concerns. I have also supported people who have experienced life's traumas in its many forms. My counseling style is warm, humorous, and collaborative. I believe in treating people with respect, empathy, autonomy, and compassion. Labels mean less to me than one's view of how their mental health interacts with their overall quality of life. My approach combines person-centered, strengths-based perspectives that incorporate skill building tool sets from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing techniques to meet an individual where they are at in regard to their mental health journey. We will work together to create a plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and peaceful life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you. Thanks for choosing BetterHelp!

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Some commonly asked questions can be found below.

How much does a therapist cost?

Mental health professionals can differ in price. Forbes found that the average cost of in-person therapy in the US is around $100 to $200 per hour. Pricing can also vary based on your location. 

BetterHelp offers payment plans of $60 to $90 per session, charged monthly in a lump sum. You can also take advantage of this pricing on one of BetterHelp's sister platforms, like ReGain for couples or TeenCounseling for teens aged 13 to 19.

Many therapists may be upfront about their pricing and whether or not they take health insurance from the beginning. Additionally, some in your area may offer a sliding scale plan to allow those with lower incomes to pay less for therapy. However, services online can often save individuals a few hundred dollars per month.

How do I know if I should get a therapist?

Mental health services and mental health providers may help you navigate various concerns. You do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy; You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general advice. A counselor may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Mental health issues don't always present as a crisis. Many professionals provide talk therapy and support for life transitions, skills learning, relationship problems, or life coaching. Online therapy sessions in Wisconsin can allow clients seeking therapy to experience professional help through video, phone, or live chat sessions without commuting to an office.

Does insurance cover therapy?

Different counseling services can vary in cost. Therapists must apply to accept insurance through insurance companies, which may take time and money, so not every therapist offers services through insurance. If you cannot find a therapist that accepts your plan, BetterHelp may be cheaper than visiting an in-person therapist.

Is online therapy safe?

Online therapy through BetterHelp and its sister platforms is safe. Therapists are licensed, experienced, and vetted before being contracted with the platform. If you experience any concerns with your therapist, you change your counselor through the platform or app at any time.
