About Sienna Venderley

Life can feel overwhelming at times, especially when navigating school-related stress, behavioral challenges, or significant life transitions. If you or your child are feeling stuck, unheard, or unsure of where to begin, you’re in the right place! Reaching out for support can feel like a big first step, and you don’t need to have all the answers before getting started. Together, we can explore your concerns, identify meaningful goals, and find a path forward that feels right for you and your child.

Hi, I’m Sienna Venderley, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) providing therapy to children and adolescents. I gained much of my clinical experience in residential, partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP) programs. My specialties include obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns.

My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized. I strive to meet each child and family where they are, creating a space where they feel heard, understood, and supported. I believe treatment is most effective when clients and their families have an active voice in the process, and I work collaboratively with them to identify goals that reflect their unique needs and strengths. In sessions, I incorporate evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and coping skills development to help clients build confidence and develop practical tools to navigate life’s challenges.

I earned my undergraduate degree in Social Work from the University of Wisconsin–Whitewater and my Master of Social Work from Aurora University.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, exploring hiking trails, visiting farmers markets, and trying new restaurants. I’m also a coffee lover who enjoys discovering new coffee shops and trying their seasonal flavors!
