Each of us was reverently and wonderfully made! But over the course of life many of us have been wounded with injuries that eyes can't see--soul wounds. Those wounds may come from absent or unloving caregivers, bullying, abuse, trauma, neglect, hateful words, injuries or illness, substance abuse, lack of safety, abandonment, rejection, etc. There are many ways a person can be wounded. Those wounds don't just go away, and over time they cause problems in our behavior, thinking, feelings, relationships, families and workplaces. We wonder why this anxiety just won't go away, or why we've sabotaged yet another relationship. We get ugly with the people we love, or feel so out-of-control we don't know what to do. We have unexplained illness and ailments, and the treatments (physical and mental) seem never ending. Yes, these are all symptoms of soul wounds. You are amazing because you have found incredible ways to cope with the difficult and even terrible circumstances you've faced in life! And the good news is that you don't have to live with those wounds forever. Hi. I'm Leah, and I would love to embark on a journey of healing with you. Together we will engage in creative and life-changing interventions, activities and encounters that will help you heal the wounds in your soul, and discover (or rediscover!) the unique and amazing purpose for which you were created! You were meant for so much more, and I would be honored to help you unlock your potential and finally live life to the fullest. I'm going to be honest with you, this is hard work; maybe the hardest work you've ever had to do, but in the end it will all be worth it. What are you waiting for? Let's get started! I am a spiritually integrated therapist and adhere to the American Association of Christian Counseling Code of Ethics, which can be found here: https://www.aacc.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/AACC-Code-of-Ethics-Master-Document.pdf

I am a therapist with over 20 years experience and I am accepting clients for phone counseling sessions. I find Person-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy styles work well for me. One of my areas of expertise is working with survivors of abuse though in these many years, I have worked with people struggling with many different kinds of issues, such as loneliness, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and self-esteem. You would find me warm and nurturing as a therapist though I can also be direct. Working together, I believe you can reach your goals sooner.

I am licensed in Wisconsin with 27 years of professional work experience. Guided by my belief in the inherent worth of each individual, I focus on helping clients live a more meaningful, satisfying, authentic life by developing a more flexible approach to solving problems or resolving issues. I work with adults as individuals and couples on issues such as personal growth, depression, anxiety/stress, anger management, relationship concerns, LGBTQ+ issues, grief/loss, and coping with changes that occur as one journeys through life. I strive to provide an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared and processed without fear of judgment. When working with clients, I use an eclectic approach. Eclectic therapy is a very versatile psychotherapy that draws from multiple evidence-based therapy approaches in order to select the best treatment for each individual client. Instead of being stuck in one therapy modality, the therapist and client can switch between multiple approaches as appropriate. Some advantages of Eclectic therapy include: • The therapy is adapted to the client rather than the client having to fit into a set model • It is useful for multiple and complex problems • The techniques used are research-based and shown to be effective My availability varies. Although I have made Wednesday afternoons available, I am semi-retired and can schedule for other times, if needed. Please contact me via messages should you want to schedule a time other than Wednesday afternoons. I plan to check messages twice each day: once around noon and again in early evening. Signing up for therapy can take courage. I know because I’ve done it! Congratulations for taking this first step! I look forward to working with you.

The wheels are spinning – in your head and your life. Overthinking, indecisiveness, and fear of making mistakes keep your mind and body on edge. It’s overwhelming – to the point that you feel beat up and defeated most of the time. It also makes you feel like you’re an imposter – a fraud. You know you have talents and that God put you on this earth for a reason, but it feels hidden and elusive. And even if you knew what it was, you wonder if you would ever measure up or be good enough. “Maybe I’m just broken” is a familiar refrain. If only you knew what to do or had someone to guide you, perhaps things would be different. I help individuals like you who feel lost in their identity and purpose, burdened by overthinking, anxiety, and unresolved trauma. Through a faith-centered approach and using a variety of clinical theories, I can guide you in processing your emotions, reframing limiting beliefs, and building unshakeable confidence. Our work together is more than just healing - it's about rediscovering your true self, aligning with your spiritual values, and stepping boldly into a renewed sense of purpose, peace, and empowerment. I earned my Master of Science degree in professional clinical mental health counseling at University of WI-Oshkosh. Prior to having my own private practice, I worked as a therapist, dual-diagnosis therapist, and crisis worker serving diverse populations of all ages and with a wide variety of concerns. I have specialized training in DBT, CBT, EMDR, hypnotherapy, IFS, ACT, ADHD, anxiety, Christian life coaching, and have worked as a certified integrative health coach. I have specialized in somatic healing techniques and neuroscience as well. I utilize a strength-based, compassion-led, eclectic mix of therapies based on client needs. I believe in educating clients to help them gain knowledge and feel empowered to make changes and to grow and in treating the whole person – mind, heart, body, and spirit.

I am committed to providing a safe, supportive and non judgmental space for clients to explore what is causing distress or pain, what may be impeding life satisfaction, as well as ways to improve relationships, build self awareness, and enhance coping skills to navigate life challenges moving forward. Everyone needs assistance at times, and I believe that therapy can provide the space and foundation to better understand ourselves, to heal, and to move forward with a more grounded sense of self. My specialties include assisting individuals who are coping with depression, anxiety, difficulties with self worth, relationship/marital issues, pregnancy/parenthood, fertility/miscarriage, adoption, young adult and life transition issues, cancer, grief and loss, as well as the chaos, upheaval and isolation associated with world events during the past few years. In addition to my clinical experience, graduate work and licensure, I have additional training in couples/marital therapy through the Gottman Institute, and have completed their Bringing Baby Home program. I am also trained in Promoting First Relationships, and hold an Infant Mental Health Certificate through the University of Washington.
