I think it is smart to go forward with guidance and care. I have worked with trauma and solution-focused therapy.

I am a licensed professional counselor in Wisconsin that is also trained and licensed in art therapy. I have extensive experience working with youth ranging in age from four to 18. I have worked with women and their children in addictions recovery and am very interested in working with veterans because of my own journey through PTSD. I am an LGBTQIA+ ally and identify as non-binary myself. I consider myself to be culturally competent, and will work to understand the perspective of the person I support first and foremost. My therapy style is welcoming and non-judgmental. I feel that my journey in life through trauma is why my heart genuinely cares to know others in theirs. I am honored to support anyone who feels they can trust me enough to share what has happened in order for us to make sense of why undesired behaviors and thoughts are present in their current struggle. I believe in putting the person first and will be an ally on their journey of healing, while continuing to motivate and encourage the person I support, even when it feels impossible. I believe compassion and relationship building is key for success. I honor diagnosis but believe a person is more than a label they were given. My approach is focused on a bottom-up approach that involves using the body, breath-work, and image making to promote neural connections for new habits. I work with the person I support to determine a treatment plan to meet their goals. My life work is rooted in understanding the effects trauma has on the mind, body and spirit. I use current research in these areas of understanding to work towards healing through emotional regulation in order to understand self to be able to create new narratives and patterns that promote a desired post-traumatic growth lifestyle. I have worked with with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, PTSD, addictions, self-worth, death/grief, relationship issues, abuse, parent/child challenges and more. The journey is often not easy, but with support and small steps, I believe it is definitely doable. I look forward supporting you on your journey towards wellness.

Hello, I'm glad you're here! My name is Kris, and I'm a Mental Health Counselor, and a Visual Artist. My background: Since 2017, I have been helping adults move forward through their anxiety, grief, codependency, self-esteem issues, and relationship problems. I have provided counseling services through BetterHelp; my Wisconsin-based private practice; Gundersen Health System; and La Crosse County (WI) Mobile Crisis Unit. I’m a mixed-media artist, and my background in Studio Arts gives me unique insight into working with, and connecting with, those who identify as creative; visual thinking; abstract; spiritual; and/or out-of-the-box. Just to clarify, while I have a spiritual perspective, I do not offer Christian Counseling. My approach: My counseling approach is collaborative, empathic, and nonjudgmental. My strengths as a counselor are intuition, empathy, and unconditional positive regard for my clients. I use a solution-focused approach to counseling. What this means is that I work with clients to identify their problems, and work toward “solutions” to these problems. We work together to develop specific, measurable, and attainable therapeutic goals that focus on the here-and-now to create meaningful change. My counseling approach also has a strong focus on mindfulness and whole-person wellness. I am passionate about helping clients mindfully focus on improving their wellness to build resilience and thrive amidst their current challenges. I experience both counseling and art-making as therapeutic, transformative processes that help us contact and express our inner worlds--our thoughts, emotions, and needs. These processes can help us increase self-compassion, develop new perspectives, and better-understand our selves. This clarity can help us develop the confidence and courage to make choices based on our values, so that our lives reflect who we are and what is most important to us. Training: I received my Masters degrees in Clinical Mental Health Counseling (Winona State University) and Human Development with concentration in Spirituality and Creativity (Saint Mary’s University of MN). My undergraduate degrees are in Studio Art (University of MN-Duluth) and Visual Communications (Art Institute of Pittsburgh). I engage in ongoing training and clinical consultation to help ensure ethical, quality care. Personal: I’m a mother and an artist. I like flower gardening, swimming, painting, and dancing. I enjoy counseling and art-making as therapeutic, transformative processes.
