About Connie
Connie Champion is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin who focuses on practical, goal-oriented work. She brings 24 years of experience helping people tackle issues like stress, anxiety, addiction, mood disorders, parenting concerns, and relationship struggles. Connie emphasizes strengths and clear steps so parents and individuals can make steady progress.
Her style is grounded in solution-focused work and client-centered care. Sessions are aimed at identifying small, achievable changes and building on what already works in a person's life.
Background and approach
She uses cognitive-behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking and DBT skills to manage strong emotions. Connie also draws on mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to help people stay engaged with change. That mix can help with sleep problems, eating concerns, grief, and coping with life transitions.
She has additional experience supporting those facing substance use issues and compassion fatigue. Her background spans community and institutional settings, substance use treatment, and program supervision. That variety informs a straightforward approach that values clear planning and practical skills.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to the client's needs. Parents who feel overwhelmed by behavior challenges, stress, or the push-pull of work and home life may find this approach useful. Connie aims to help people find realistic strategies they can use between sessions and build confidence in handling day-to-day parenting demands.

Therapeutic approaches and online support
Client-centered work focuses on the client's own goals and strengths. The therapist listens closely and helps shape plans that fit each person's life, which can be useful for parenting stress, relationship issues, and life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches practical skills to change behavior and mood. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing impulsivity.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete emotion-regulation and distress-tolerance skills. It is helpful when strong emotions, anger, or impulsive behavior get in the way of daily life or relationships.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to choose methods that match goals, preferences, and needs, adjusting techniques as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow for full face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and messaging lets people share updates between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules, allow shorter check-ins during the workday, and offer alternatives when being on camera is not ideal.
