Michelle Barth

Welcome! I am a licensed Profession Counselor in Wisconsin with nearly 9 years of experience. Therapy is an overwhelming step to take when you are struggling, but a necessary and powerful one. To take action and get involved in our own healing is courageous. Congratulations on making that commitment to you. My life’s aspiration is to work with the individual and honor their unique personal journal. I work from a strength-based, collaborative, and experiential place to help guide you through all the challenges that life can throw at us. Together we will work to develop skills that will allow you to better manage your emotions and create healthier relationships in your life. Our collaboration will work toward stripping away false beliefs, embracing your own unique gift and together we will create a safe space for empowerment and possibilities. I am trained to help those who have experienced trauma, suffer depression, anxiety, and OCD. I also have experience with grief, motivation, self-esteem issues. I pride myself on helping people work through and navigate hurdles such as: social struggles, anxieties, depression, peer pressure, insecurities. We are all so different and have different learning styles, therapy is not a one size fits all experience. In my 8 years of experience working in higher levels of care, I have accumulated many different therapeutic techniques that will be offered during your time in therapy, to see which approach will fit you best. My approach can vary between, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral therapy (DBT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Person-Centered Therapy, Art Therapy, and Trauma focused treatment modalities.
