About Me

Hi, I’m Adam Hunt. I’m a psychotherapist and the owner of NuWave Counseling LLC. I’ve been working in mental health since 2007, and I’ve helped people navigate everything from anxiety and depression to trauma, burnout, relationship stress, and the stuck patterns that keep showing up no matter how smart or self-aware you are.

I’m originally from West Virginia. After graduating from West Virginia University in 2007, I moved from the Washington, D.C. area to Wisconsin—and it’s been home for me and my family ever since.

My style is down-to-earth, practical, and not overly formal. I take the work seriously, but I also use humor when it helps you breathe again and feel more like yourself. I’m especially drawn to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) because it’s not about “fixing” you—it’s about learning how to unhook from the mental noise, make room for real emotions, and start building a life that lines up with what matters to you.

Outside of therapy, I’m a big outdoors person—camping, hiking, and backpacking whenever I can. I also enjoy tinkering with computers and electronics, playing video games, and my family and I are always up for a road trip.
