Find Empathy, Safety, and Healing with Walk by Faith Counseling

Hi, I'm Terry.

I began my counseling profession after hitting bottom in 2001, facing the impact of multiple addictions and trauma. Through a journey marked by grace and unexpected opportunities, I discovered a calling to walk alongside others. With 26 years of military service advocating for recovery, I transitioned into the private sector, bringing with me a deep understanding of the complex intersection of culture, faith, and personal struggles.

This path has given me a deep compassion for those who feel overwhelmed by life’s challenges. It is an honor to help others confront past wounds, take intentional steps toward healing, and move from isolation into a more connected, joyful life. In addition to my work as a therapist, I co-authored Walk by Faith, Not by Sexuality: A Compassionate Guide to Sexual Identity, Religious Integrity, and Inner Peace, available here.

At Walk by Faith, we are committed to providing professional and compassionate care to individuals, couples, and families, including specialized services for children and adolescents. Our team integrates faith-informed counseling, EMDR, CBT, play therapy, and other evidence-based approaches, tailoring treatment to each client’s unique needs and goals. As a dual-licensed mental health and substance use provider in Wisconsin, I am dedicated to cultural competence, client autonomy, and honoring each person’s spiritual and personal journey within a respectful and welcoming environment.
