Individual Psychotherapy and Brainspotting Therapy

Shorewood, Wisconsin and Virtually Statewide

At Made For This Counseling, you’ll find a warm and grounded space to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with yourself.

You don’t have to figure it all out alone. Therapy is a place to explore what’s beneath the surface and begin healing from the inside out. I look at how your experiences, environment, and development all shape the way stress and pain show up in your life. Maybe it’s through overthinking, people-pleasing, or tension in your shoulders.

However it appears, it’s all connected—and it all matters.

Hi & Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m Sydney, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Southeastern Wisconsin. I help adults and young adults struggling with anxiety and trauma break old patterns and move forward with clarity and a strong sense of self. I specialize in people-pleasing, perfectionism, unhealthy or emotionally abusive relationships, and codependency.

As a therapist, I approach my therapy sessions with consistent empathy and warmth because you deserve a space solely focused on you—free of judgment, always. My goal is to create a relaxed and comfortable environment where your thoughts and feelings are welcomed and valued.

I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet you and your specific needs. I utilize different treatment modalities and offer brainspotting therapy to provide holistic care for my clients. My goal is to help you explore your experiences on a deeper level, understand and gain insight into the core beliefs that have shaped your life, build confidence and feel connected to your most authentic self.

If this sounds like you- I’m here to help!

  • you’re looking to understand your patterns and behaviors and gain insight into where they stem from

  • you have difficulty advocating for yourself and communicating your needs, how you feel, or your opinions

  • it’s easy for you to know what others need but difficult to identify what YOU need

  • you take on others emotions and feel a sense of responsibility for them

  • self-criticism, negative thoughts, and low-self worth hold you back

  • you’ve been called “easy going” and the “peacemaker”

  • conflict scares you and you do anything to avoid it

  • you’re easily adaptable, like a chameleon, changing based on the situation or relationship

  • you care for others but also care a lot about what they think of you

  • you feel anxious within your relationships
