Claire Guy, MSW, LCSW,
About Claire Guy (She/Her)
Claire Guy, LCSW, helps teens, adults, and older adults throughout Wisconsin to build practical skills for navigating life challenges while creating meaningful, lasting change. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with LifeStance Health, she provides individual therapy in a supportive, collaborative environment where clients can explore concerns, strengthen resilience, and develop tools for improved emotional well-being. Claire commonly works with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma-related concerns, while also supporting a variety of additional mental health needs. Claire believes that therapy should be both compassionate and action oriented. She works alongside clients to better understand patterns that may be keeping them stuck and helps them develop healthier ways of coping with stress, emotions, and life transitions. Drawing from evidence-based approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness techniques, she tailors treatment to each individual’s unique experiences, goals, and strengths. In addition to her primary areas of focus, Claire helps clients address concerns related to ADHD, bipolar disorder, grief, women’s issues, and major life transitions, including midlife and later-life changes. She understands that periods of transition can bring uncertainty, loss, and questions about identity, and she is passionate about helping individuals navigate these seasons with greater confidence, perspective, and emotional balance. Claire earned her undergraduate education from Asbury University and completed her graduate education at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Her clinical approach combines empathy, curiosity, and evidence-based care to help clients feel heard, understood, and empowered throughout the therapeutic process. Outside of her professional work, Claire enjoys crocheting and other creative crafts, following sports with a particular love for lacrosse, spending time with family, and finding opportunities to be outdoors.
