About Bryan
Bryan Krause is a licensed clinical social worker with three years of direct therapeutic experience. He practices in Wisconsin and has worked in mental health since 2016, including recent roles focused on intensive treatment for people in acute crisis. Bryan aims to support stabilizing symptoms and help clients move toward practical, everyday goals.
He prefers working collaboratively and keeps sessions straightforward. He asks about values, listens to each person’s story, and involves clients in planning the work.
Background and approach
Bryan focuses on creating an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. In clinical practice he helps people manage depression, stress, anxiety, and trauma-related concerns. He also addresses relationship and family difficulties, low self-esteem, motivation, and problems like panic attacks or mood shifts.
Additional topics he sees include attachment and family of origin issues, communication struggles, control and impulsivity, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation. His recent work in intensive programs emphasized stabilizing acute symptoms and building functional skills. Now he is interested in longer term work that teaches recovery skills and builds a stronger foundation for mental health.
Sessions are shaped around practical steps clients can use between meetings. Bryan uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and works with clients to find the right approach for their needs. He conducts sessions in English and offers multiple online formats to make therapy fit into busy lives.
How Bryan Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online
Two of the core approaches he draws on are practical skills-based techniques and trauma-informed care. Skills-based techniques teach concrete coping tools for anxiety, panic, and mood swings so people can use them between sessions. Trauma-informed care focuses on grounding, safety, and pacing to help reduce distress after traumatic experiences.He tailors methods to each person instead of applying a fixed program. During early sessions he and the client review symptoms, needs, and goals, then choose or adapt techniques together. This collaborative planning helps decide what will work best over time.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy family life. He offers video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions for convenience, and live chat or text messaging for brief check-ins and ongoing support. These options help people continue work on recovery skills and communication in ways that suit their routines and comfort levels.
