Here for you

Our Services

In its purest, yet most profound way, therapy offers a place to slow down and reconnect with yourself—a space where the fog can lift and a clearer horizon comes into view. Whether you’re working through anxiety, depression, or the many challenges life puts before you, our work focuses on understanding what’s beneath the surface and helps you move forward with greater clarity, understanding and intention.

What We Offer

  • People come to therapy for many different reasons, and it’s important to find a good fit when you take that next step. Throughout sessions we’ll work collaboratively —clarifying what may be getting in the way, building on strengths, and developing practical strategies for change. To that end, below are some areas of focus that I’ve been honored to work with throughout my career as a psychologist.

    • Depression

    • Ineffective Coping Skills

    • Grief

    • Cultural and Systemic Oppression

  • My approach is largely rooted in cognitive behavioral techniques, but also integrates, or utilizes other approaches when clinically indicated.

  • If you’re interested in beginning therapy, simply complete the inquiry form on our Contact Us page. We’ll follow up promptly and send a link to our secure patient portal, where you’ll find everything you need to get started—including scheduling options, Sunrise Psychology Group forms, opening paperwork, and our policies and procedures. If anything is unclear along the way, you’re always welcome to email me directly at drcole@milwaukeespsychologist.com.

  • The initial intake session is a chance to share what brings you in and what feels most important right now. We’ll explore your history, current concerns, and the patterns that may be shaping your experience. This conversation helps clarify your goals and gives us a sense of how we might work together. It’s also an opportunity for you to get a feel for my style and ensure the space feels comfortable and supportive. By the end, we’ll have a clearer sense of where we’re headed and how therapy can best support you moving forward.
