About Us

As Co-Founder and Psychotherapist of A.B.D.H. Counseling Services, I had a goal to create a Mental Health Outpatient Clinic to provide a safe therapeutic environment that fosters personal growth, awareness, resilience, and healing.

Health Outpatient Clinic to provide a safe therapeutic environment that fosters personal growth, awareness, resilience, and healing. A.B.D.H. Counseling Services encompasses my vision and allows me to work with individuals seeking to manage mental health issues, remove life obstacles and transform into the best version of themselves.

The A.B.D.H. Counseling Services’ team is experienced, committed, and passionate about collaborating with individuals and families to address issues that impede growth, inner peace, and purposeful lives.

As a psychotherapist, I believe everyone has the capacity to change and possess the ability to regain control over their lives; ultimately, improving their quality of life.

I use several different evidence-based therapeutic modalities such as: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy. Depending on the individual, I also employ an integrated approach to provide the best care possible. The holistic approach treats an individual’s mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual needs creating a balance in the person’s life.

Through a strength-based and honest lens, I support individuals in gaining confidence and tools to navigate through obstacles such as trauma, depression, anxiety, mood dysregulation, and daily personal life challenges. Other areas of expertise are: parent-child conflict, grief/loss, PTSD, low self-esteem, ADHD, and relationship concerns.

Are you ready to take this journey in creating a new you? As your therapist, I will walk with you and empower you to face challenges and uncertainties head on. I know it’s not easy taking the first step, but we can develop a treatment plan that increases your life by working together. Victory is yours and I look forward to witnessing it.

Welcome to therapy with Holley! I am a Co-Founder and Therapist with A.B.D.H. Counseling Services with over 15 years of counseling experience. As a therapist, I understand life is precious and we need to live each day to its fullest. This is why I am extremely excited to wake up each day and help others live a life of joy and fulfillment by learning to overcome and cope with life’s challenges.

I grew up in the heart of Milwaukee’s northside, where its residents face many challenges including trauma, poverty, and socio-economic issues. This experience gave me a greater understanding and commitment to delivering services to Milwaukee community. I specialize in depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma and relationship issues. I enjoy working with children, adults, families, and couples.

I approach my clients holistically, utilizing various therapeutic practices to meet each person’s unique goals and needs. Collaboratively, we will focus on strategies that will enhance your life. I realize taking the initial step towards therapy can be difficult but let me show you how being proactive can lead to positive changes in your life.

This is the start to better days of your life moving forward.
See you soon,
Holley
