Hi, I’m Ben Fendrich, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Substance Abuse Counselor in Wisconsin. I specialize in supporting adults navigating mood challenges, including bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, and mood disorders. My approach is warm, engaging, and collaborative—I provide a supportive space to process life’s stressors, whether they stem from work, relationships, or personal struggles. Together, we’ll explore new perspectives, develop coping strategies, and help you move forward with confidence and clarity.
We are an online counseling group therapy practice where you can receive the mental health treatment you deserve from your comfy surroundings! We offer phone and video counseling, on your time.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in the belief that creativity is a powerful tool for self-expression and healing. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals can explore their emotions, break through barriers, and tap into their inner strength. Every person is unique, and my goal is to tailor my therapeutic techniques to meet the specific needs and preferences of each client. Expressive art therapy provides an alternative form of communication, particularly beneficial when traditional verbal expression may feel limiting. Artistic expression allows for the articulation of emotions, experiences, and narratives that may be challenging to express through words alone. The focus is on the process of creation rather than the end result, allowing for a more profound and authentic exploration of emotions.

I approach each problem with curiosity. I seek to offer a warm, genuine, accepting and safe environment to allow my clients to express themselves honestly. I prefer to use a collaborative approach, integrating healing with daily living. I am a mother of two daughters aged 24 and 17. I started my journey toward seeking to serve others more than 30 years ago with an undergraduate degree in Social Work. I had a deep desire to address the challenges associated with cultural adjustment and mental health. To enhance my understanding of culture, I chose to pursue a Master's in Anthropology soon after completing my undergraduate degree. This launched my career into working with new arrival families in a variety of settings. After spending time raising my family, I completed my long term goal of obtaining a counseling degree in 2013. Since then, I have worked in many different settings and with clients from a variety of groups and stages of life, including community based care, inpatient, Intensive Outpatient, Partial Hospitalization, and crisis care and support in a medical setting. I have served both adolescents and adults. At this time in my career, I seek to continue to support adults of all ages and backgrounds.
My name is Kaite (they/them), and I am a queer, neurodivergent, nonbinary therapist. I specialize in working with other queer and neurodiverse individuals to heal from trauma, manage depression and anxiety, and find ways to thrive in a world that was not designed with you in mind. I help by utilizing a variety of approaches in my practice, working with you to find strategies and techniques that align with your goals. I am trained in EMDR and CPT, but I also use DBT, MBCBT, ACT, IFS, somatic techniques, and artistic expression as modalities to help you reprocess and heal from trauma. In our first few sessions, you can expect a therapeutic space that is empowering, sensitive to your needs, and based on collaboration rather than looking at you as a problem to be fixed. My practice is unique because I approach healing from a holistic framework that takes all of your identities, experiences, and goals in mind rather than choosing a one size fits all approach. I am passionate about this work because I also know what it’s like to struggle after experiencing trauma, especially when trying to navigate complex medical systems where other providers do not look or experience the world like you do. I firmly stand with all marginalized groups and actively work within an antiracist, feminist, neurodiverse, and gender-affirming lens. I look forward to meeting you and supporting you on your continued journey towards mental wellbeing!
