Who Are We?

Becky DeGrossa

headshot of Becky DeGrossa

CounselingWise is the work of Becky DeGrossa, who has been contributing to the world of online marketing for therapists since 2007. After earning a degree in Computer Science from Cal Poly and spending 20 years at IBM, Becky pursued a master’s in psychology and became a successful therapist. Now she combines her technical, marketing, and psychology backgrounds to serve the therapy community, and has helped hundreds of therapists in the fine art of website communication. Becky is a “process nerd” meaning that she LOVES Learning something new…Testing it out to see if it works…Tweaking it so it works better…and then Systematizing it so it can be done over and over. This predilection has resulted in efficiencies that range from…yes, the loading/unloading of the silverware basket in her dishwasher…to…rapid increases in marketing effectiveness for her clients. In her spare time, Becky loves hanging out with two-year-olds, reading good novels, and listening to thought leaders while on the beach in Maui.

Our Team of Amazing Folks

Willie Milam

Director of Project Delivery

headshot of Willie Millam
Willie is from Oregon and has a deep love for two places he has lived – the Pacific Northwest and Colorado. He is especially fond of the mountains, open trails, and being outside in all seasons. He’s been a lifelong runner, from the track to the backcountry, and still carves out time for it whenever he can. At CounselingWise, he leads the team of project managers and heads the Google Ads department, working closely with therapy and coaching practices to grow their online presence. Willie’s approach is equal parts strategic and hands-on – he’s just as comfortable building out a detailed campaign structure as he is mentoring team members or reworking a workflow to be more efficient. A former elite distance runner with Roots Running Project, an Olympic Development group in Colorado, Willie now brings that same focus and drive to his work.

All his life, Joel DeFazio has been passionate about helping people grow their businesses. His journey with CounselingWise began because of his sister-in-law, who is a therapist herself. He worked with her to help her market her practice and attract new clients. She knew Becky DeGrossa and she thought her brother-in-law’s expertise in marketing and business strategizing could be a valuable asset for Becky’s company. She told Joel about the opportunity and that’s how he became part of the team.
Before working at Counselingwise, Joel worked in sales for several decades. He has a wealth of experience helping run ad campaigns and empowering people to visualize and achieve their business goals. Outside of work, you can often find Joel hiking a mountain trail. He and his wife have an RV, and they take every opportunity they can to get off the grid and spend time in nature.
