About Bryan

Bryan Krause is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin with three years of direct therapeutic experience and a longer history in mental health work dating back to 2016. He has spent the past two years in intensive treatment programming supporting people in acute mental health crisis. Bryan now offers longer-term work focused on building recovery skills and more stable day-to-day functioning.

He works with depression, stress, anxiety, trauma, obsessive thoughts, relationship concerns, family conflict, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Bryan also addresses life purpose questions, attachment and abandonment concerns, communication and control issues, guilt and shame, impulsivity, loneliness, panic symptoms, and post-traumatic stress. He describes his practice as collaborative and includes clients in each step of care.

In sessions he will listen to a person’s story and clarify values that matter to them. He focuses on practical steps to stabilize symptoms and on skill-building to support everyday functioning. Sessions often prioritize concrete goals and small experiments to test new ways of coping.

People who are unsure what comes next after a job change, relationship shift, or health event may find his approach helpful for making choices that match their values. Bryan aims to work alongside clients to identify obstacles and to create clearer patterns of action. He emphasizes straightforward discussion and shared planning rather than abstract talk.

Clients can expect collaboration about goals and methods during the first meetings. He invites people to describe what matters most and then designs sessions that follow those priorities. Bryan offers services in English and practices in Wisconsin.

Therapeutic methods and remote care

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques can include several practical methods. One common approach focuses on building concrete coping skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, panic, and mood changes. These techniques teach breathing, grounding, and activity planning to help people manage acute moments.

Another common technique works with patterns in relationships and attachment. This approach helps people notice how past family experiences affect current communication and closeness, and then practice clearer ways of relating to others. It can be useful for people dealing with abandonment worries, trust issues, or repeated conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will review a person’s goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend techniques to try. Decisions about methods are made together and can change as needs evolve.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not listed here. Ask which types of remote sessions are offered and how they fit your schedule. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a weeknight or lunch break, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so appointments are simpler to attend.
