Compassionate mental health care & counseling for children, youth, & adults in the Fox Valley

Meet Gloria Allhiser, LPC

Gloria has been providing mental health care and counseling in the Fox Valley since 2018, and has over 20 years of experience working with children, youth, and families. She works with children, adolescents, and adults addressing a variety of issues, including (but not limited to) anxiety, depression, grief, adjustment, relationships, marriage, trauma, parenting, emotional/mood dysregulation, and more. Her compassionate approach honors the natural instinct of the mind and body to adapt and overcome. She has a particular passion for helping clients heal from spiritual or religious trauma and other experiences that leave us feeling stuck.

Gloria is licensed in the state of Wisconsin and is a member of the American Counseling Association. She received her Bachelor’s Degree in Religious Studies from St. Norbert College in 2004 and her Master’s Degree in Counseling from Lakeland University in 2014. She is passionate about continuing to expand her knowledge and understanding of the human experience and what helps us heal.

She received her bachelor’s degree in religion and Christian counseling also through Liberty University. Faye has worked in health care for over twenty years in various settings. Working as a registered nurse has given her a strong passion for helping others overcome difficulties. She also has a strong passion for learning and continues to expand her knowledge of healing the mind after adversity. Faye is passionate about helping clients work through depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, adjustment, and more.  

Faye is able to see clients ages 8+ for a flat self-pay rate of $50/session.

In addition to in-person counseling, we offer telehealth counseling to make it easier for you to get the mental health care you need.*

*Not all clients or client concerns are appropriate for telehealth counseling. We will discuss this with you at your first appointment.

Children & Adolescents

We offer individual counseling services for children ages 8+. Parents and primary caregivers are a critical part of treatment and are expected to be actively involved in the counseling process.

Adults: Individuals & Couples

Adults can utilize in-person counseling as well as telehealth counseling services when appropriate. And while healthy individuals make healthy couples, even then sometimes a partnership can benefit from more structured support.

Co-parenting Counseling

Whether elective or court-ordered, we offer co-parenting counseling services to help parents come to collaborative (or parallel) solutions to put their children first.

the story behind the name

“And if I decide to become a butterfly,” Yellow asked. “What do I do?”

“Watch me. I’m making a cocoon. It looks like I’m hiding, I know, but a cocoon is no escape.

It’s an in-between house where the change takes place.”

from “Hope for the Flowers,” by Trina Paulus
