Monica M Dreesen, M.S., Lpc-A Email & Phone Number

I have just graduated from Marquette University with my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an emphasis in child and adolescent counseling. I am a driven, diligent, and organized individual and I pride myself in my warm personality and cheerful attitude. Now as a graduate entering the job field I am ready to learn more and apply these skills towards my professional goals.I had the pleasure of interning at Children's Wisconsin where I worked collaboratively with my supervisor to co-lead individual counseling sessions with children and adolescents ages 6 to 18. Through this experience I also assisted in creating individualized treatment plans and writing client progress notes. At Children's Wisconsin I gained experience practicing counseling skills and overseeing client care through documentation responsibilities such as scoring clinical assessments. This experience exposed me to issues of family trauma and understanding children's experiences during all levels of development. I have good experience utilizing therapeutic techniques that are unique to supporting children and their families as well as assisting parents in creating healthy developmental environments for their children.
