Background and approach
Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are woven in to support coping and readiness for change. She has worked in many settings in Wisconsin, including treatment programs, court-related services, and community agencies. That background shaped her emphasis on concrete strategies and resource-based planning.
Connie has experience supporting people through grief, life transitions, parenting stress, and work-related burnout. Sessions are organized around clear goals and practical steps. People can expect skill-building, problem-solving, and short-term plans that move toward longer-term growth.
The therapist pairs direction with attention to each person’s values and pace. Connie offers video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging as session formats. She works in English and does not take international clients.

How client-centered and skills-based approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building on what a person already does well. Online sessions using this approach start with the person’s own goals and values and shape plans around them. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety and mood symptoms. In remote sessions that can mean weekly skill practice, short homework, and checking progress together.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods match the person’s needs and goals. That collaborative process can involve trying different techniques and adjusting the plan over time to get the best fit.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for full conversations and skill practice. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a session needs to fit a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging can support brief check-ins, brief skill coaching, and ongoing encouragement between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep skills practice active between meetings.
