Therapists in Racine, WI
Therapy is often understood as a treatment for mental health challenges like depressive symptoms, but the therapeutic journey can encompass many things. Therapists can offer support and tools that help manage stress, strengthen communication within families, increase mental clarity and focus, facilitate recovery, and improve quality of life.
When it comes to finding a therapist, Racine, WI may offer more variety than surrounding rural areas, but finding the right therapist can be challenging even in a city. This is because clinicians within the mental health field can specialize in any number of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, and which will be most effective can depend on the challenge being addressed as well as personal preference. What you want or need may not necessarily be available in your area. This is where online therapy can help.
BetterHelp is an online platform that offers access to Racine-based online mental health practitioners that specialize in a variety of approaches and have experience working with diverse populations. Simply fill out an online questionnaire and BetterHelp will match you with the therapist that best meets your individual needs. And because therapeutic alliance can be key to success, if you need to change therapists at any time you can do so at no additional cost.
Another benefit of online therapy is accessibility. For some, feelings of distress or shame can get in the way of attending in-person therapy. For these individuals, online therapy can cause less anxiety as video chat, phone, and text messaging options allow you to meet with your therapist from the comfort of your own home.
If you have been thinking about therapy at any point, there is no better time to move forward. Below is a list of Racine-based online therapists available through BetterHelp.

Hello! My name is Paula Peterson. I have been a practicing counselor since 2007. I am licensed professional counselor in Wisconsin and Clinical Mental Health Counselor in New Hampshire. I am grateful that you are reading my profile and if you connect to what I am sharing, please contact me. It takes courage and humility to seek out help. Great job noticing your need and taking the step to get your need met!! I chose the counseling field because of seeing the power of being vulnerable with the struggles of our lives and being cared for in that vulnerability. I know that our mental health is just as important as taking care of the other aspects of ourselves. I obtained a degree in Mental Health Counseling from University of Wisconsin-Stout. I have practiced in a day treatment and outpatient setting. I have worked successfully with adults and adolescents. I bring to my practice the belief that we as humans have in us, an innate ability to work through life's struggles. I seek to tap into that ability within our counseling relationship. I have experience working with trauma, anxiety, self worth and self esteem, life transitions, grief and loss, and anger management. I also enjoy working with addictions, depression and spiritual struggles. Lastly, if what I have shared fits for you, please reach out. I look forward to getting to know you and walking with you at this time in your journey. If what I have shared does not fit, I hope you are able to find a good fit for you and your needs.

I am grounded in a person-centered, strengths-based, whole-person approach.

I use a variety of approaches / interventions, including short-term, more solution focused approaches, along with longer term exploration of the experiences that have shaped you, and the patterns in your life and relationships that may be blocking you from living your best life.
