Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Merrisa Dawn Santos

Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In the intricate tapestry of our lives, the pursuit of happiness, safety, and love is a universal quest. Yet, for many, the journey toward emotional wellness is fraught with challenges beyond their control. Trauma, familial history, and the burdens of life can cast shadows that obscure life's inherent beauty. I believe that each individual deserves to uncover, rediscover, and reclaim life's joy and purpose. As a compassionate and dedicated psychoanalytical therapist, I aim to guide you through this transformative process with warmth and understanding. Through welcoming and conversational counseling services, I aim to create a space where you can explore the intricate connections between your mind, body, and spirit. This holistic approach seeks to assist you in reconnecting with your higher purpose, allowing you to navigate life unburdened by emotional pain.

Madison, Wisconsin therapist: Amy Look, psychologist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Amy Look

Psychologist, PhD, LP
Exhausted by overthinking, people-pleasing, and holding yourself to impossible standards? From the outside, it looks like you’ve got it all together - you're thoughtful, capable, and high-achieving. But inside, you feel uncertain, overwhelmed, and stuck. If this resonates, I can help! I specialize in skills-focused therapy for adults who want real change, not just support. Our work together will empower you toward a life that's defined by your values, not your critical inner voice. I’ll use evidence-based strategies to teach you how to calm your mind, cope with stress, build confidence, and strengthen relationships. Call or send me a message to discuss more about what it would be like to work together.
