About LeeAnn Van Vreede

As a licensed therapist in Wisconsin, I bring 20 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through life’s complex challenges. My practice centers on helping clients navigate depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and significant life transitions. I specialize in addressing issues like stress management, addiction recovery, and personal growth across various life stages—from young adulthood through midlife.

My therapeutic approach is compassionate and holistic, focusing on healing emotional wounds related to guilt, shame, and self-worth. I’m particularly passionate about supporting individuals struggling with mood disorders, workplace challenges, and family dynamics. Whether you’re dealing with codependency, seasonal affective disorder, or seeking to develop stronger coping strategies, I’m committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional expertise.

I create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can explore your experiences, build resilience, and cultivate meaningful personal transformation. My goal is to help you develop deeper self-understanding and practical tools for emotional wellness.
