Therapy for CMN students.
College of Menominee Nation sits in Keshena, Wisconsin. Telehealth means you can keep your therapist when you go home for break, when you transfer, when you graduate and move across the state for the first real job. The free 15 minutes consult tells you whether we are a fit before you commit to anything.
CMN is a tribally controlled college, which means a different shape of community than a state school. The student body knows each other; faculty often live in the same community. Therapy with someone outside that circle can be useful precisely because the conversation is private and untangled from the daily community fabric.
I work with CMN students by telehealth across Wisconsin. Sessions are confidential, not shared with the college, and not part of any tribal record.
What students typically bring.
- Intergenerational and historical trauma that surfaces in unexpected places.
- Grief, including grief tied to community loss.
- Family and community responsibilities that pull against academic schedules.
- Identity navigation: traditional and contemporary worlds at once.
- Anxiety, depression, and the daily wear of being one of few from your community in a given space.
How the work fits a college schedule.
Telehealth sessions are 50 minutes. Most students start weekly or every other week and adjust from there. You can sit in your dorm, your apartment, or the quiet corner of a library study room with headphones; the only requirement is somewhere you will not be interrupted for an hour. Sessions hold over breaks and over the summer if you want them to.
Free 15 minutes consult comes first. We talk about what brings you in and whether I am the right person for it. If I am not, I tell you that, and where to look. No pressure to commit on that call.
Insurance and cost.
I accept BadgerCare, Medicaid, Medicare, and most major insurance plans including those carried by student health plans. If you are on a parent's plan from outside Wisconsin, telehealth from a Wisconsin therapist may or may not be covered; we can check together on the consult call. Out-of-pocket session fee is $125 with sliding-scale consideration for students who need it.
