I’ve never had such a compassionate therapist that understands me and how I best respond to treatment. She really listens so that I feel heard and safe to be vulnerable

I am licensed in Wisconsin as a professional counselor with nearly 20 years of experience. I help clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, confidence, & depression—all of the life challenges that throw us off course. I have found it important to bring a holistic approach to care and well-being, recognizing the synergistic relationship of body, mind, spirit. I offer respect, sensitivity, and compassion, recognizing and honoring the uniqueness of your personal journey. Our work together will be strength-based, collaborative, and experiential—designed to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage. Congratulations on making that commitment to you. It's surprising how wonderful life can be when we are able to take action and get involved in our own healing.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

She was cool
I’ve never had such a compassionate therapist that understands me and how I best respond to treatment. She really listens so that I feel heard and safe to be vulnerable
She great!
Kailean gives me the opportunity to adjust our sessions to what fit exactly what I need. She listens on days when I just need to talk about what’s happening, while giving great tools and advice on days I can’t figure out my next move. Always a positive, encouraging experience.
Barbara is extremely compassionate, non judge mental and makes me feel really safe in opening up to her
Very responsive and supportive.
Kailean has really helped me process an unusual circumstance and always provides professional and compassionate feedback. She allows me to speak honestly and freely without judgement. I highly recommend her services.
She is amazing and reaches out to you; even if you don’t respond in a timely manner.
