About Troy

Troy Bruns is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin who brings two decades of clinical experience to his work. He holds a master’s degree in counseling from the University of Iowa and combines clinical practice with teaching, serving as an instructor for SUDC students at CVTC. Over his career he has maintained a private practice for 12 years and has also provided care in emergency settings, substance use disorder agencies in both inpatient and outpatient contexts, employee assistance programs, and correctional environments.

Troy works with individuals and couples on a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and ADHD. He places a high priority on understanding what a person is experiencing and on building a strong working alliance. Patient empowerment and collaborative problem solving guide his sessions, with the client’s goals shaping the focus of care.

He offers weekend and some evening hours to increase accessibility for people with busy schedules. Troy’s approach emphasizes practical strategies and partnership, helping clients navigate life changes, manage symptoms, and develop skills to improve daily functioning and relationships.

Collaborative Approaches and Online Support

Troy emphasizes collaborative problem solving and empowerment-focused work, two evidence-based directions that shape his online practice. Collaborative problem solving involves working together to identify practical steps and solutions for immediate challenges - this approach is useful for addressing relationship conflicts, stress, and everyday coping difficulties. Empowerment-focused techniques center on building a person’s strengths and decision-making capacity, helping clients regain a sense of agency when managing addictions, depression, or life transitions. He also brings focused experience in supporting people through substance use concerns, using structured guidance and goal-oriented support to help clients make meaningful changes.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Troy works with each person to determine which strategies fit their needs, goals, and preferences. This collaborative process allows plans to be tailored and adjusted as progress unfolds.

Online therapy provides flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to continue work during transitions. These options support consistent contact with licensed professionals and allow therapy to proceed in ways that suit each person’s schedule and comfort level.
