ANXIETY & PERFECTIONISM · ONLINE THERAPY
When “good enough”
never feels good enough.
The conversation you keep replaying. The email you rewrite five times. The sense that you can relax once you’ve done just a little more.
We can make room to understand that pressure, and explore different ways to respond.

DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
A lot of effort.
Very little relief.
You prepare for every outcome, then wonder what you missed. Small mistakes feel huge. Other people see someone capable; you feel tense or exhausted. Sometimes that pressure shows up as unfinished tasks, avoided conversations, or difficult decisions.
Or the overwhelm shows up in unfinished tasks, avoided conversations, and difficult decisions. You don’t need to have it together to ask for support.
We can start with what feels hardest. No polished explanation needed.
HOW I WORK
Curiosity.
Practical tools.
Room to be human.
We can explore what fuels the pressure, practice responding to worry, and work on boundaries. My approach is warm, conversational, and collaborative. Your identity and relationships matter, whatever brings you to therapy.
My training includes cognitive behavioral and acceptance-based approaches, with ongoing clinical supervision.

Your relationships and identity matter. This is a queer-affirming space, whatever brings you to therapy.
PRACTICAL QUESTIONS
Before we start
Who do you work with?
I work with youth, teens, adults, and couples. AMRI can help confirm whether my services fit what you’re looking for.
What if I’m not sure it’s anxiety?
You can describe what’s happening in your own words. AMRI and I can help clarify whether working with me is appropriate for your needs; you don’t need to choose a label from this page.
What does it cost? Can I use insurance?
AMRI Counseling can confirm the session fee and whether your specific insurance plan covers appointments with me. For payment questions, call 414-455-3879 or email clinic@amricounseling.com.
Where can I attend sessions?
You need to be physically located in Wisconsin or Florida during sessions, with reliable internet and a private place to talk. Let AMRI and me know before joining from another location.
What if my needs are different?
Tell AMRI what support you’re looking for and ask whether my supervised practice is a fit. If you need a different service or level of support, the clinic can discuss the appropriate next steps.
What happens at the first appointment?
We’ll talk about what brings you to therapy, some of your background, and what you’d like help with. We’ll also go over confidentiality, how sessions work, and any questions you have. You can get a feel for working with me, and we’ll discuss next steps together.
