Trauma-Informed Therapy for Adults Across the Lake Country Region

Silver Lining Counseling provides in-person therapy in Lake Country, Wisconsin for adults navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, eating disorders, and life transitions.

Therapy for the Lake Country Community

Lake Country is a close-knit region where people take pride in managing life well. Many adults here come to therapy not because everything has fallen apart, but because something underneath the surface has been quietly building for a long time. Anxiety. Exhaustion. A sense of going through the motions without feeling fully present.

At Silver Lining Counseling, we work with adults who are functioning on the outside and struggling on the inside. Our approach is trauma-informed, which means we focus on understanding the roots of what you are carrying, not just managing the symptoms.

What Brings People to Therapy in Lake Country

Adults across the Lake Country area come to therapy for a wide range of reasons, including:

Chronic anxiety, worry, or an inability to slow down
Trauma or PTSD from past or ongoing experiences
Burnout and emotional exhaustion from years of high performance
Disordered eating or a difficult relationship with food and body image
Perfectionism, overachievement, or never feeling like enough
Emotional disconnection from yourself or the people closest to you
Supporting a loved one through addiction or mental health struggles

Whether you are coming to therapy for the first time or returning after a long break, we meet you where you are and move at a pace that feels right for you.

EMDR Therapy in Lake Country, WI

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based therapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories and experiences. It works at the level of the nervous system to reduce the emotional charge of difficult memories and shift negative beliefs that developed as a result of past experiences.

EMDR at Silver Lining Counseling may be helpful for:

Single-incident trauma (accidents, loss, medical events)
Complex or developmental trauma
Anxiety and panic
Negative self-beliefs rooted in past experiences
PTSD symptoms

Hannah Kohlmetz is EMDR trained and incorporates this approach as appropriate for each individual client. EMDR Intensive sessions are also available for clients who want to move through the work more efficiently.
