CBT
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.

Amy Holder
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CIMPH
My clients feel exhausted from carrying the mental load of everything. They know they should be kinder to themself, but somehow always feel behind. If this sounds like you, then let’s work together. I offer therapy that is modern, accessible, and holistic. We’ll use practical tools to help you manage stress, quiet your inner critic, and feel more in control of your emotions. Therapy with me is supportive but also action-oriented and we’ll work together to make changes that actually stick. I believe therapy should be something you look forward to.

Mary Vanderplow
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have the expertise to help clients find their way to a life that doesn't revolve around food, weight, and appearance. There is a path to recovery for every individual and I take the time to get to know each and every client and give them the personal care they need and deserve. It is important to me that my clients don't feel like a number, that each client feels seen, heard, and validated through the therapeutic process.

Madison is home to the University of Wisconsin — one of the top research universities in the country — and serves as Wisconsin's state capital, giving it an unusually high concentration of academics, researchers, and government professionals who collectively represent one of the most therapy-positive demographics in the Midwest. The city's progressive political culture and high rate of higher education strongly correlate with high therapy utilization and acceptance across multiple demographics. UW Health and SSM Health St. Mary's Hospital provide institutional mental health resources, with a well-developed private practice community serving Willy Street, Atwood, and the Near East Side. Madison's growing Latino, Hmong, and East African communities are increasing demand for multilingual and culturally grounded therapists.
