The Wise Counsel Team welcomes Dana Hercbergs, LSW, starting 12/9/24!
I believe that every healing journey involves a reconnection to self, honoring your ever-evolving complexity and needs in this season of your life. I gently companion personal processes by slowing down and allowing the answers to emerge from within you. I emphasize experiential and somatic approaches to wellness – inviting spaciousness and warm curiosity to past and current issues as they arise in the body – as sensations, postures, images, or metaphors. I often use Focusing in my practice: A way of pausing and sensing inside for the felt quality of your experience or story. Safely and at your own pace.
Together, we become curious about that “something” just at the edge of your awareness. We listen for what it needs to become unstuck – for your life energy to flow again. Relationship and attachment issues, life transitions, identity, depression and anxiety, grief, and creative projects are some of the issues that surface in my work with clients. Please contact me if you are curious and would like to learn more.
Dana, an LGBTQ+ affirming clinician, is now accepting new telehealth clients ages 19+ with the following insurances: Aetna, Aultcare, Beacon, Buckeye, Caresource, Cigna, Humana, Medical Mutual, Oscar, United Healthcare (including GEHA and Medicaid), and Self-Pay.

The Wise Counsel Team is excited to welcome Michelle Kramer, LSW, starting 9/18/2024!
Do you ever find yourself struggling to get out of bed in the morning? Do you get overwhelmed with intrusive thoughts and sometimes want to shut down? Do you struggle with going to sleep at night because you feel as if you just can’t stop the endless worries and fears that are racing in your mind? These are real feelings and challenges that can be addressed.
You can learn new skills to overcome stress, anxiety, fear, shame, blame, low self-esteem, social fears, trauma, and depression. You can wake up in the morning feeling rested. You can repair relationships. You can allow yourself to process all your emotions and change the way you approach life.
I specialize in adolescents, adulthood, and couples. I am an affirming LGBTQ+ practitioner. If you are ready to face your challenges, want to feel heard, and want to develop new skills to improve your life, give me a call today to schedule our first session.
