About Brian
Brian Groeschel is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience. He helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief, and depression.
Background and approach
His work focuses on practical steps clients can use each week to feel steadier and more in control. He uses a client-centered stance that puts the person's goals first.
Sessions are conversational and straightforward. Brian listens for patterns tied to attachment, family history, and communication habits, then helps people shift them over time.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy offers skills for managing strong emotions and building tolerance for distress.
The Gottman Method is part of his approach for people who want help with relationship communication and conflict patterns. Brian also draws on motivational interviewing when someone is unsure about change.
That helps people find their own reasons to try something different without judgment. He adapts methods to fit each person’s pace and readiness.
Clients can expect clear goals, skill-building, and practical homework when useful. Brian aims to make sessions useful from the start, focusing on what will make a difference between visits.
He practices in Wisconsin and conducts sessions in English.
How Brian’s Approaches Work Online
Brian integrates several straightforward approaches into online sessions. The Gottman Method focuses on improving communication and breaking negative interaction cycles, which helps when relationship arguments feel stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current reactions and helps people change those patterns to feel more supported in relationships.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include simple exercises and homework to try between meetings, so progress continues outside sessions. Brian combines these approaches based on what the person wants to work on and how they respond to different techniques.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust as needed. Clients help set the pace and decide which tools feel most useful for day-to-day life.
Online formats offer practical benefits. Video calls let the therapist and client see each other for conversational work and skill coaching. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief support, check-ins, or practicing skills between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule.
