About Brian

Brian Groeschel is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 20 years of experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, and issues tied to family of origin. He also addresses related concerns such as attachment issues, communication problems, codependency, and fatherhood issues.

He keeps sessions straightforward and focused on practical change. Conversations look at current problems and the patterns that developed early in life. He helps people notice how family roles and expectations still affect their choices now. Work often includes clearer communication skills and techniques to manage overwhelming feelings.

Brian uses several well-known approaches to guide sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Attachment-Based Therapy helps examine how early relationships shape adult responses. Client-Centered Therapy provides a collaborative setting where the person's goals direct the work.

Over time he blends strategies from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and motivational interviewing when needed. These tools add skills for emotion regulation and for making change when motivation is low. Conversations can cover substance use, separation and divorce issues, blended family transitions, and challenges around fatherhood.

Sessions are conducted in English and reflect practical problem solving. Before booking, people should confirm current session formats and scheduling options to find what fits their life.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns from early relationships and how they influence current reactions. In sessions this means talking about key relationships, noticing recurring roles, and trying different ways of connecting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online work with CBT typically includes identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing small behavior changes between sessions.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what the client finds most useful. That way the work stays relevant to daily life and specific family-of-origin concerns.

The biography does not list specific session formats here, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday or a parenting schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let people use audio-only conversations if video is difficult, or schedule sessions around caregiving and work commitments.
