Wellpoint Care Network

About Wellpoint Care Network

Conveniently situated on West Capitol Drive near Interstate 41 in Milwaukee, Wellpoint Care Network is a nonprofit outpatient clinic serving children, teens, adults, couples, and families. The community-centered program provides care for depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, self-harm, and concerns related to identity. With both in-person and telehealth appointments available, Wellpoint Care Network helps more people in the community get timely access to mental health support. The center also offers flexible scheduling, comprehensive clinical evaluations, and consultation services for many situations, including major life changes such as divorce or bereavement, difficulties in the school environment, and the pressures experienced by LGBTQ+ youth and adults who are looking for affirming care.

Clinicians use trauma-informed approaches and may include trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, art therapy, occupational therapy, family counseling, and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. Wellpoint Care Network is recognized for its leadership in trauma-informed care, including its own model called the Seven Essential Ingredients. This framework shapes every service by emphasizing how common trauma is and how profoundly it can affect people, shifting attention toward what happened instead of what is “wrong,” and focusing on regulation, relationships, and connection to family, community, and culture. Sessions offered for individuals, families, and groups combine research-based and creative strategies to help clients develop coping skills, manage emotions, and strengthen relationships.

In addition to outpatient services, Wellpoint Care Network works with schools to deliver mental health support directly on campus, enabling students to meet with therapists during the school day. The center also provides additional assistance for young people transitioning from foster care, offering support related to education, employment, housing, and healthcare to promote stability and long-term progress.
