Adoption Therapists in 55116

Life can be hard. Let's collaborate to meet these challenges and find a way to more successful living. I work with individuals of all ages in addition to working with the whole family when indicated. With teens and adults, I use mindfulness and different therapies depending on what is needed. A free 30 minute consult is offered so we can meet and determine if our philosophy of change is a good match. I look forward to meeting you and working together for change.

At Kendra Snyder Therapy & Associates, our therapists specialize in supporting those who have been touched by adoption, grief, loss, trauma, and hurt from religion, as well as people who desire increased connection, to explore personal identity, and to find an authentic belief system or spirituality. We create an open and inviting space for others to engage in deep introspective reflection that helps foster creativity, authenticity, and expansion.

We are all on a unique life journey! I am passionate about helping others thrive, not just survive, on their journey. I am especially passionate about healthy relationships with a special interest in family of origin issues, pre-marriage counseling, divorce, remarriage, blended families, and codependency issues. I also specialize in grief counseling, life transitions, career development, and spiritual concerns. I work with individual adults and couples using a systemic, strengths-based, integrative approach.

Work with adolescents and their families is where my passion lies. I understand and believe that the system a person is operating in can impact all parts of one's life experience. I believe it is important in therapy to meet you where you are at and explore where you want to go. Creating a path to becoming your most authentic self is one of the most rewarding and challenging acts you can do. I am honored to be a part of your process.

I have the awesome privilege of getting to work with teens, families, adults and therapists all day long. I often meet teens who are uncomfortable with the idea of going to therapy. If your teen works with me, I will work closely with them to ensure that therapy with me isn't uncomfortable. I read teens well & will work hard to help your teen have a positive therapy experience. Teens are accepted in my practice for who they are in the world & they have told me that this acceptance is helpful to them during a time of intense growth & change.

Congratulations on getting this far on your journey. I am going to entertain the idea that you are interested in changing aspects of yourself or your life so that you can move towards a personal goal, life satisfaction or general happiness. You have a child or teen you are worried about. We will work as a team and not keep anyone in therapy any longer than is necessary for the goal(s) to be realized. Please be advised that I expect challenging questions and hard work AND want you to want the same.

I'll help you to find your way. Serious help for serious problems. See my website at petergrantphd.com

I have been in private practice since 1991 and have previously worked in medical, rehabilitation, college counseling, and community mental health settings. I know that asking for help is not easy. Trusting someone you don't know with very personal information requires a leap of faith. Understandably, you may want to know what to expect, should you decide to work with me. Initially, I will work to identify the particular issues that you want to address and then collaborate with you to develop goals and strategies. Throughout the process, I will listen carefully, drawing out particular material for discussion and presenting new information to help you see yourself and your choices with a new perspective. I will suggest possible courses of action, recognizing that only you can decide whether to follow any suggestions that come from the counseling process.

I specialize in the treatment of children, adolescents, adults and their families covering a range of issues. I focus on working through and solving problems that are unique to each person's perspective. I feel it important to listen to each party's concerns and get to the root of the matter with assertive yet gentle guidance. My goal is to provide a safe emotional environment for children and adolescents dealing with complex issues so that they can express their concerns and develop ways of coping with their difficulties, successfully.

Are you (or your family) stuck? Have you been trying the same things over and over and nothing is changing? Time to try a more direct approach! I can help. My work with clients is rooted in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). DBT is not for the faint-hearted! It is direct, evidence-based and it works. DBT has been proven useful in treating mood disorders, suicidal ideation, and for change in behavioral patterns such as self-harm, and substance abuse. At Minnetonka Counseling I lead adolescent and family DBT groups, adult DBT groups as well as advance DBT workshops for DBT graduates.

Whether you’re a nature lover or nature avoider, love to move your body or can’t stand to break a sweat, this therapy is for you. With today’s stressors, we all need nature more than ever. Take your therapy outdoors and gain the benefits of moving your eyes off the screen, engaging your senses, and really feeling your body in nature...all while addressing your personal goals.

I'm interested in clients who want to maximize their capacities to work, love, and play. I specialize in treating developmental and complex traumas as well as attachment injuries. It is vitally important to me to establish an extremely safe therapeutic environment with my clients so that we can then deal with issues in a direct and expedient way. My clients typically deal with anxiety, depression, shame, chronic pain, relationship issues, spiritual issues, and many other factors that are inhibiting them from the realization of their full potential.

Hey there, my name is Alyssa and I use she/they pronouns. I am a queer, neurodivergent marriage and family therapy intern. While my specialty is with couples, families, and groups, I also love working with individuals. I connect with clients through humor, playfulness, and art-making, which I believe can help work through challenges that life can throw at us. In my opinion, art therapy is not about making profound art but is a tool to help process feelings and discover something new.

I work with a wide range of adults with various backgrounds and problems. I enjoy diversity in my practice: people going through traumas, situational crises, domestic trouble or experiencing unusual stress. I am also available for doing couples work. I can focus on immediate management of the situation or longer-term changes. I see LGBTQ clients and those struggling with gender or identity issues. I have always enjoyed working with our senior citizens who have much wisdom and are usually hard workers at whatever they do.
