Mitch Turner, MS, LPC, CSAC, CS-IT

Are you interested in getting support and guidance in your journey through life? My name is Mitch and I am ready to help you design your Pathway to Success. I attended UW-Madison from 1986-90, receiving a B.A. with a Major in Psychology; and 1992-94, an M.S. in Counseling. For 20+ years, I served the State of WI Dept of Corrections as a Probation / Parole Agent. A disproportionate number of clients on my caseload had significant mental health issues. Having served as Motivational Interviewing Ambassador to D.O.C., I learned to elicit reasons for change that is held within someone. I have worked for Goodwill Industries, Catholic Charities, Tellurian, and Family Service in a clinical capacity. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Clinical Substance Abuse Counselor.

I am a Comprehensive Community Services (CCS) Network Provider at Dane County Human Services. In addition to working as a therapist at Great Lakes Psychology Group, I am also a therapist on BetterHelp. I have contracts with several EAPs (Employee Assistance Programs). Throughout my career, I encountered people from all walks of life, including the homeless, chronically mentally ill, intellectually challenged to substance abuse addicts and those that are suicidal. I have had extensive experience and education on domestic violence and working with perpetrators. I realized that I could combine my passion for nurturing mental health with my extensive work experience to develop a program that will help people stay focused on health and wellness, relationships, freedom, and career development. It is my belief that everyone has a purpose in life. It is my mission to help you Stay Focused on Your Goals! I work with individuals, couples, and families. I am available weekdays, evenings, and weekends.
