Austine Roney
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I help reflective, him vicious people who feel like anxiety, fear, or self doubt have them quietly shape in their lives. Many of my clients appear successful on the outside, yet privately feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. Using EMDR, ACT, DBT, and Brainspotting, I help client understand the patterns beneath their struggles so they can reclaim their confidence, self-worth, and sense of direction. If you are ready for more than temporary relief and want meaningful, lasting change, I would be honored to help.

Michele Donalson
Licensed Professional Counselor
I am passionate about helping couples figure out their "communication issues" which are often much more deeply rooted in ways that the partners have not made a connection to yet. Past relationships, hurts from loved ones and/or trauma from childhood or any poor experience may contribute to how one shows up today along with being a black man or woman living in today's world. These are all factors that may contribute to relationship distress and should be addressed.

Does life feel overwhemling sometimes? Are you feeling anxious or depressed? Or Maybe you are concerned that your memory is not what it used to be? Or a family member has recently been diagnosed with a memory disorder.
I specialize in working with adults who want to be active participants in their brain health. I am fulfilled when working with families and care partners who are navigating the cognitive changes of a loved one.

Dr. Amy Karbasi
Psychologist, PsyD
Living with chronic pain or illness can affect far more than your physical health—it can change your identity, your relationships, your sense of safety, and your hopes for the future. With a strong medical background and years of training and experience treating chronic pain and chronic illness, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for making sense of these experiences and finding actionable ways to move forward. My approach is collaborative and individualized, combining evidence-based psychological treatment with an understanding of the complex relationship between the brain, body, nervous system, emotions, behavior, and symptoms. Whether you are struggling with chronic pain, symptoms that persist despite medical treatment, illness-related anxiety, medical trauma, PTSD, sleep problems, or trying to adjust to a life that has changed, therapy can help you feel more capable, hopeful, and empowered to build the life you want.

Milwaukee is one of the most racially segregated cities in the United States, and the mental health effects of systemic inequality, concentrated poverty, and community violence disproportionately affect its Black residents — driving demand for culturally affirming and trauma-informed therapists. The city has a strong Polish, German, and working-class heritage in many of its neighborhoods, and therapists frequently address intergenerational family dynamics, addiction, and depression tied to economic stress. Froedtert Hospital and the Medical College of Wisconsin provide major institutional mental health resources alongside community-based providers. Milwaukee's proximity to Chicago means some residents also access care in the broader metro corridor.
