What I treat · Life transitions

Therapy for life transitions, across Wisconsin.

Transitions are the places where the version of you that worked yesterday stops fitting. There is usually nothing wrong. There is just a lot to sort out.

Transition clients are usually not in crisis. They are in a doorway. A new job, the end of a long relationship, a move, becoming a parent, a kid leaving, a diagnosis, a retirement that did not feel the way it was supposed to feel. The story they kept telling themselves about who they are has stopped describing them, and a new one has not arrived yet.

This is one of the most rewarding kinds of work to do. Not in the sense that it is easy. In the sense that the people who come for it usually leave with a clearer sense of who they have become, and what they want to do with that.

How we work on it

Most of this work is conversational, person-centered, slower than the rest of your week. We do not start with a worksheet. We start with what is here. Cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavioral tools come in where they are useful.

You are not behind. You are between.

What to do next

If this is the kind of work you have been thinking about, the next step is to schedule the consultation or intake session.

Common questions

Things people ask before reaching out.

Is it really therapy if nothing is wrong?

Yes. Plenty of the people I see are working on something the rest of the world would call a good problem. Therapy is not only for crises.

How long does this take?

Often three to six months of weekly sessions. We talk about timeline at the first session.

Do you bill insurance?

Yes. BadgerCare, Medicaid, Medicare, and the major commercial carriers bill cleanly. Self-pay is $125. See insurance and fees for the full list.

Reaching out is the hardest part. After that, I take it from there.
