More about Joe

  • 30 years' experience
  • Male
  • LCSW

I have been a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Wisconsin for over 25 years. I enjoy getting to know my clients with an easy, conversational approach. My eclectic style incorporates person centered therapy and interpersonal process therapy. I have also incorporated ideas from evolutionary psychology in my work. I help people understand their personality and past as well as their current relationships and how those things influence their behavior. Through active listening and offering observations, ideas and positive solutions, I help clients discover and define current obstacles so they can best move forward. I’ve had many years of experience working with people who are dealing with family and relationship issues, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, and addictions. There is always a way to move forward and I will be happy to help.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
