Victoria Hagan
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
As we age our body, mind and emotions change. Transitioning to this new stage of life takes special understanding of where we have been in life and what we still want to accomplish. Together we will evaluate these changes and potential obstacles while creating a path forward.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in geriatric care, my approach to treatment is holistic, person-centered, and tailored to the unique needs of older adults. I prioritize building a trusting and compassionate therapeutic relationship, recognizing the diverse life experiences and challenges that come with aging. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), supportive counseling, and reminiscence therapy, I address a wide range of concerns including adjustment to life transitions, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, and cognitive changes. I collaborate closely with other healthcare professionals and family members to ensure comprehensive care and support. Additionally, I integrate strengths-based approaches to help older adults identify and leverage their resilience and coping skills. My goal is to promote emotional well-being, enhance quality of life, and empower older adults to navigate the aging process with dignity and resilience.

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.
