Therapists in Whitehall, WI

I have been a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Wisconsin for over 25 years. I enjoy getting to know my clients with an easy, conversational approach. My eclectic style incorporates person centered therapy and interpersonal process therapy. I have also incorporated ideas from evolutionary psychology in my work. I help people understand their personality and past as well as their current relationships and how those things influence their behavior. Through active listening and offering observations, ideas and positive solutions, I help clients discover and define current obstacles so they can best move forward. I’ve had many years of experience working with people who are dealing with family and relationship issues, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, and addictions. There is always a way to move forward and I will be happy to help.

I specialize in helping people get past their "stuck points". We all have stuck points and blind spots. We all do things that cause us to say to ourselves, "I wonder why I did that!" I have worked in the mental health field and specifically in the area of trauma since 1997. My areas of expertise are in trauma disorders and how these disorders also present as anxiety, depression, chronic illness, pain, and plethora of presentations that are based in trauma. Most of which the general public are not aware of. All of us have experienced some kind of trauma or neglect in our lives. That's because we're human. We make mistakes as people, as parents, as imperfect but beautiful beings. This affects how we see and feel the world around us. It is often the impetus behind any of our behaviors. This can also affect our performance in school, sports, interactions with families and friends. But most of us have no idea how to deal with the effects of, or metabolize the emotion in a way that restores our full equilibrium. I utilize somatic-based therapies, EMDR, Trauma Model therapy, brain spotting, DBT, CBT and Ego state therapies. I work with children and adults of all ages. Don't let your own fears hold you back from reaching your full potential!

My name is Mary Newbauer, I am recently retired after 28 years of providing service to patients and families at the end of life. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Wisconsin. I received my masters degree from University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1999. After all these years it is still my wish to provide comfort through counseling to those who hurt, not only from the death of a loved one, but also loss through divorce, ending of a significant relationship, even our own aging process. I work with individuals who are going through life transitions. My counseling practice provides a confidential, empathetic space to navigate difficult and painful times, assisting clients in adapting to those changes and eventually creating new life. The counseling techniques I practice most are : Solution focused, Client Centered, Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) and Mindfulness. I also embrace experience and wisdom. If you believe I can be helpful, I am honored to assist you with supportive presence, active listening and my years of experience and wisdom.

I am licensed in Wisconsin with 4 years of professional work experience, specifically working with family systems, couples therapy, and individual therapy. Before that, I had experience in emergency settings and case management. As my role as a therapist, I feel very privileged to be a part of your journey and discovery in therapy. I believe in unconditional positive regard towards my clients, and adhere to the clinically-proven belief of the client-counselor relationship being the highest indicator of successful therapy- more so than any specific modality. I will curate your therapy to fit who you are as person. I have experience with multiple therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), SFBT (Solution-focused Brief Therapy), Narrative Therapy, Existential Therapy, Motivational Interviewing (MI), and more. I believe that no one therapy is perfect for one person, and will draw upon multiple modalities in your sessions. Your world view, identity, and beliefs are important, and it is my job to see you and your life through those perspectives. I practice trauma-informed care. I am an LGBTQ+ ally. If I make a mistake, I will acknowledge it, own it, and do my best to make it right. And, a little bit about myself, I am a certified Therapeutic Game Master through Geek Therapeutics – so you know I’m a nerd. In this “about me” I also want to address the individual and collective trauma that has been the global pandemic, caused by COVID 19. I look forward to meeting you, hearing your story, and earning your trust.
