Bio:

Missy lives in Eau Claire with her husband and four children. She completed her undergraduate studies at UW-Eau Claire where she obtained a Bachelor of Social Work degree with a double major in psychology and social work. Missy obtained her Master’s of Social Work degree from University of Wisconsin – Madison in 2013.
The bulk of her career has been in child welfare serving children and families with significant trauma, abuse and neglect but has been practicing clinically since 2019.

She is interested in continuing to work with individuals who have experienced Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE) and complex trauma. Missy has experience with mental health crises including self-injury and suicidal ideation. She enjoys working with older children, teenagers, and adults struggling with an array of issues including depression, anxiety, errors in thinking, coping skills, family issues, and PTSD.

As someone who strives to prevent child abuse, neglect, and trauma, perinatal mental health is very important to Missy. Perinatal mood disorders are the most under-diagnosed complication of childbirth and can lead to negative outcomes for both the mom and her baby. Missy is excited to work with all moms who do not feel the “joy of motherhood” and are overwhelmed with the unrelenting standards and demands of motherhood. She’s happy to help moms with their mental health, before, during, and after pregnancy and is happy to screen new fathers as well.

TESTIMONIALS

As a parent having the School Based Mental Health available has been very helpful with my child.  The process has gone smoothly from the initial contact to being able to choose a therapist that may work best with my child to the therapist working directly with my child.  This is also helpful that they are able to come directly to my child at the school so that they are missing less school and I as a parent need to miss less work as well.  Overall the whole experience has been a positive one for both myself and my child.

“The group was very good, and it calmed me down a lot. When you feeling stressed this class is a time to just relax and think about everything and it soothes your mind.”   “I liked that every time I needed to relax or talk about something I would not get judged that place was a free spot.”   “Being in the relax group really helped me become calm, and know what to do in times when I’m overwhelmed. The Relax Group also helped me focus on everyday tasks, and the group gave some incredibly good advice :)”
Student feedback about a Relax Group
School-based mental health services allow a child to receive much needed services regularly without the inconvenience of scheduling around after school activities or parents having to take time off work.

You made this process super easy and helped me every step of the way to ensure that my student is set up for success. In following up with me and making sure we were taken care of shows that you care about the students and their wellbeing. Thank you so much for making this as easy as it was, I truly appreciate everything!

“I liked how they gave me strategies and not just one but many so I could choose what I liked and didn’t like!”

As a therapist, having the School Based Mental Health available for students is very important in many aspects. School is an area where children spend a great amount of their time and the schools are able to work with the therapists to help in any areas that they may be struggling in.  The schools have all been very open with working with me as a therapist and the children are able to still get services that are needed for either home or school issues without having to miss more time at school since the therapy is able to be done right at the school settings.  Being able to provide this service for families is a great asset for everyone involved.
