About Holly
Holly Keyser is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Wisconsin with 24 years of clinical experience. She focuses on common concerns adults bring from home life, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and challenges related to addiction and bipolar disorder. She also notes work with LGBT needs and family or parenting concerns.
Holly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her sessions. She aims to be straightforward and practical. Conversations tend to focus on what is happening now and on small steps to reduce distress and improve daily routines.
She has a long history of supporting survivors of abuse and offers trauma-focused approaches when needed. That work includes attending to dissociation, attachment or abandonment wounds, and effects of chronic illness or caregiving stress. She also addresses issues like body image, codependency, communication problems, and separation or divorce.
Sessions are described as phone counseling in the original biography, so prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking. Holly conducts sessions in English and does not accept international clients at this time.
Her practice frames goals collaboratively. She tends to blend person-centered listening with goal-focused CBT exercises and trauma-informed techniques when appropriate. The result is a mix of reflective conversation and practical skill work suited to everyday problems at home.
How sessions work
How Holly’s approaches fit with online work
Holly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and she brings trauma-focused methods into appropriate cases. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on what the person says matters most and helps people feel listened to while they name goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at patterns of thought and behavior and uses exercises to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, or relationship stress. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on managing trauma symptoms and building skills to cope with dissociation, flashbacks, or strong emotional reactions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Holly will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences, and then suggest which methods to start with. That decision is collaborative and may change as progress is made or new needs appear.
The original biography mentions phone counseling sessions, so confirm available session formats before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days because they remove travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a lunch break, or let someone use audio-only when bandwidth is limited. Therapists can pair listening-focused Client-Centered work with CBT exercises in remote sessions and also adapt trauma-focused techniques for phone or other supported formats. Confirm which specific formats are offered when you arrange the first appointment.
