From my 12yo niece:"Tell your therapist I said thank you for fixing my aunt." I think that sums up my journey with Wilfred Krenn. I know "fix" isn't the best word to use in therapy but that was her way of expressing the improvement that even someone as young as her noticed in me. I've learned a lot from Wilfred and I will forever be thankful that i had the opportunity to work with him as long as I have. I was anxious to do therapy but his understanding, open-mindedness, patience, kindness and guidance made it feel safe and worthwhile to try. Despite coming from a completely different culture from Wilfred, he was able to be understanding, knowledgeable and flexible in what works for me. I'm eternally grateful and cannot recommend working with him enough. I will use all what I've learned from him moving forward.

More about Wilfred
- 16 years' experience
- Male
- LPC
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals through periods of transition, grief, anxiety, creative burnout, and identity exploration. My background bridges private practice, digital mental health innovation, and executive advisement giving me a broad perspective on the inner lives of high-performing, thoughtful people navigating complex challenges.
My approach is psychodynamic and depth-oriented. This means we won’t rush to fix or label. Instead, we’ll create space to understand; not just what you’re struggling with, but how your story has formed, what it asks of you now, and what deeper truth is waiting beneath the surface.
I’ve trained in psychoanalytic therapy, existential psychology, and narrative integration. Over the years, I’ve worked with professionals, founders, creatives, and caregivers; people who may appear “fine” on the outside, but carry quiet ache, questions of purpose, or a longing to be more deeply seen.
Therapy with me is intentional, reflective, and relational. We move at a deliberate pace, guided by honesty, safety, and a shared commitment to your process.
If you're seeking not just tools, but insight; if you’re ready to understand yourself in a fuller way, I welcome the chance to work with you.
Warmly,
Wilfred

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Amazing therapist. After trying out 15 different therapists along the years, he is the first to make me feel actually heard and understood.
My strongest recommendation for Wilfred - from relationships, to identify, to self awareness and body image - he’s incredible.
Wilfred is understanding and helpful, making important connections between my feelings and behavior that I had no realized were there. He has helped me process trauma from my childhood and develop coping skills that are based on understanding who I am and how my brain works.
He is great and is informative with what I’m dealing with:)
Wilfred properly listens, understands my problems and gives great advice. I was nervous about counseling at first, but as soon as we spoke I felt at ease. I highly recommend Wilfred.
Right off the bat he knew what my issue was. From the beginning, I felt he completely understand where I was coming from and it was very comforting. It was comforting knowing I was in the right hands.
Wilfred has a great personal approach and is very open to new ways of healing. You can easily discuss of work that can be done on both parts between each session. Looking forward for more helpful videocalls !
