About Holly
Holly Keyser is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 24 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, LGBT issues, grief, bipolar disorder, and family of origin issues. She also supports people coping with trauma and abuse and with intimacy or self-esteem struggles.
Holly uses straightforward talk and practical techniques in sessions. She combines client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral tools and trauma-focused work. That means clients can expect time to describe what matters to them, reflection on patterns, and concrete strategies to try between sessions.
She helps people notice how family roles and expectations from childhood still shape choices now. Conversations often look at communication patterns, boundaries, and the pull of old habits. Sessions aim to clarify what a person wants to change and which small steps are realistic to try.
Holly can be direct when needed and also listens for what a person values. She works with problems that show up as low mood, worry, trouble trusting, trouble with commitment, or repeated arguments. Practical skills such as thought tracking, behavioral experiments, and grounding strategies are commonly used.
People typically begin with a short questionnaire and an initial session to set goals. The focus is on manageable, everyday changes rather than labels. Her Wisconsin license and 24 years of practice underline long-term clinical experience in these areas.
Approaches used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client says. The therapist follows the client's lead and helps people clarify their feelings and goals, which can help with relationship patterns and self-esteem concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It uses practical exercises such as thought tracking and behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety, manage depression, and change unhelpful habits.
Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on understanding how past traumatic experiences affect current reactions. It includes strategies to manage symptoms and to rebuild a sense of control over daily responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Holly will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying techniques, reviewing how they feel, and adjusting plans together.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also let someone continue work with a licensed professional from their home region while keeping appointments during workday breaks or other commitments.
