Callie Barfield

Licensed PROFESSIONAL COUNSELOR

Licensed therapist in Wauwatosa & online in WI specializing in ADHD, Autism, AuDHD, LGBTQ+, somatic therapy, and relationship therapy.

“I support clients with building self-efficacy and troubleshooting when things get in the way of change.”

Social conditions teach us that pleasure must be "earned", and that our worth is directly linked to our productivity. I am passionate about collaborating with individuals looking to find joy by identifying barriers to pleasure and rest, and developing a deeper understanding of beliefs that contribute to one's own discomfort with pleasure.

My Approach to Our Work

I am a fat positive, kink informed, Queer, Trans, Aro/Ace & polyam/ENM-affirming, sex worker-allied therapist.

I approach therapy with the understanding that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to help provide a safe environment for you to explore, feel, and make sense of your experiences and emotions.

Together, we will explore ways to increase compassion and acceptance and lean into pleasure so that we feel more prepared to better cope with these changes and stressors.

I utilize modalities such as CBT, DBT, Narrative, & Feminist Therapy to support clients in navigating the impact of systems of oppression on our lives & mental health.

I also utilize a trauma & neurodiversity informed lens in my practice.
