About

I am a licensed mental health therapist dedicated to supporting children, adolescents, and young adults in the Lake Country area and surrounding communities, as well as offering Telehealth services to individuals across Wisconsin. My approach is compassionate, evidence-based, and tailored to meet the unique needs of each child and family. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) to help children and young adults build effective coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and address anxiety and behavioral challenges. I also offer parent coaching to support caregivers in understanding their child’s needs, improving communication, and building effective strategies at home. I collaborate closely with parents, schools, and healthcare providers to help kids build self-esteem, thrive at home, in school, and in life. I am in network with Aetna, Cigna, UHC, and Anthem BCBS. I can provide a superbill for my out-of-network clients to help with reimbursement. For private pay clients, payment will be due at the time of the session. I can accept credit card or FSA/HSA as a form of payment. Private pay allows the client to not require a DSM diagnosis and insurance cannot dictate how many sessions are allowed. If there are any further questions regarding this please reach out!
