About Brian

Brian Groeschel is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin with 20 years of experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. He offers steady support when life feels overwhelming and helps people take practical steps forward.

Clients can expect a calm, client-centered approach that adapts to each person's needs. He listens first and helps people name what matters most to them. Sessions often focus on improving day-to-day coping, strengthening relationships, and reducing patterns that cause distress.

Brian blends several methods to match the problem at hand. He uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. He draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. Dialectical behavior skills are included when people need tools for emotional regulation and crisis management.

His work also attends to relationship dynamics and communication concerns. The Gottman Method is part of his toolkit when couples or partners want clearer interaction patterns and repair strategies. Motivational interviewing supports people who are ambivalent about change, including those facing substance use challenges.

Throughout, the focus is on practical, understandable steps. Brian helps people set realistic goals, practice new skills between sessions, and notice small changes over time. Anyone considering therapy is encouraged to review their options and begin by answering a brief questionnaire to match with a therapist.

Sessions are conducted in English and Brian works with adults who seek help for the issues listed in his specialties.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current ways of relating. It helps people notice patterns in close connections and learn new responses to feel more secure. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people identify unhelpful thinking, try different behaviors, and reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brian will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best. He listens to a person's goals and preferences and adjusts techniques as progress is made.

Confirm the session formats before booking since current options are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to keep consistent appointments during life transitions and to practice skills between meetings. Talk with the therapist after completing the matching questionnaire to review available session formats and what will work best for your schedule and goals.
