Therapists in Buffalo, MN

Authentic Roots Therapy is a mental health collaborative where licensed professionals provide individual, couple, & family mental health therapy in Minneapolis, Minnesota. We specialize in working with children, couples, families, LGBTQIA+ individuals, individuals who are questioning, curious, transitioning, or identifying as transgender/non-binary, mothers in postpartum, faith communities, individuals experiencing traumatic symptomatology, and highly sensitive men.

For those struggling with anxiety, sleep issues, motivation, low self-esteem, relationship issues, PTSD, focus, parenting, workplace stress, bullying, codependency, and general stress, Therapeutic Life Coaching goes to the root of the issue - for real change. Experience feeling heard, supported and prepare yourself to move forward in your life with a healthier body, mind and spirit.

I offer a unique blend of alternative therapies combining some of the newest discoveries in neuropsychology, mind-body integration and mindfulness. I do my best to work from a place of intuitive, compassionate, heart based support. Working together, we can explore your issues and uncover the root causes of your suffering using the subconscious, breath-work, mind-body awareness and many other transpersonal therapy methods. I believe therapy is the courageous process of exploring and releasing old wounds, discovering the 'greater' self and learning to make conscious choices with compassion and forgiveness.

I work with teens and adults, providing individual, couples, family, and group therapy. My specialties include working with the challenges of chemical dependency issues and other addictive behaviors such as shopping, eating disorders, and gambling. I help facilitate healing for people suffering from PTSD and trauma as the result of physical, sexual, emotional abuse and neglect. I provide an empathic and relational experience to assist with the challenging and sometimes debilitating effects of anxiety, depression, dissociation, self-harm behaviors, and chronic pain.

I know how hard it can be to make those first steps. I am here to support you as you grow towards a better and more sustainable future. I specialize in identity and role exploration along with the managing the related disorders that come with masking, keeping up appearances, or lost sense of self. These can include depression, big emotions, stress, burnout and high anxiety- especially among those working in high pressure jobs or other stressful roles. This also includes exploring identity and social roles as an LGBTIA+ or Autistic person, dissociative disorders, ADHD and executive functioning challenges in general.

I feel deeply connected with people who struggle to feel safe, worthy, and like they belong. I specialize in working with queer folks, trauma, anxiety and depression, body shame, high sensitivity, and an overall feeling of being stuck.

Hi there. My name is Madison, welcome to my profile. I am here to help walk alongside you during various life challenges and mental health concerns, while providing a supportive, non-judgmental, and empathic role. I am in the process of obtaining LPCC licensure, projected early 2024. I am EMDR trained, and have my certificate in Integrative Health and Nutrition for Mental Health (CIMHP). I also have experience with personal training and individual programming for health and wellness needs.

I believe making active focused choices about how to cope with problems and reach your goals pays dividends. Some clients come to therapy to better make peace with their past so as not to continue old patterns. Others are seeking relief from stress and anxiety that the modern world seems to breed. Yet others are working on improving important relationships. Many clients are looking for answers to meaning and purpose that they have not yet resolved in their day-to-day life. What is it that you most want to work on?

Working with teenagers, young adults, and their families is a passion of mine. I specifically love working within the neurodivergent, queer, and geek communities. Today's young people and families face a lot of unique struggles, and I provide a unique space for them to work through their challenges. It is important to me that clients are able to be their genuine self in therapy, even if they don't quite know what that looks like yet!

If you are looking for a therapist who is accessible, present, fearless, and authentic, then we might just be a match. I love clients who are therapy veterans and know what they want (or what they don't). I also love to help clients who are new to therapy and feel a little nervous, to feel secure and supported. Whether you have a trauma history that you need someone grounded to help you address, or just are feeling overwhelmed, if you are wanting to collaborate on making your world better, I am here for it. I bring a lifetime of experiences (and a fondness for metaphors) to the therapy room for us to draw on. I am Gottman trained.

Are you tired of anxiety controlling your life? Constant racing thoughts, turning something over and over in your mind and never getting clarity, body tension, difficulty staying present and enjoying your life... all of that is truly exhausting. Anxiety impacts not only the relationship with ourselves but also the relationships we have with others. Anxiety creates a disconnect and makes it feel impossible to live in the present moment and feel connected to others. It doesn't have to be this way. There's a path towards freedom from the constraints of your own mind and I'm happy to walk with you on that path.

Pursuing therapy is a courageous act and I'm honored to hold space for this vital work. Common challenges I navigate with people include depression, anxiety, stress management, trauma/complex trauma, substance use disorders, process addictions, and life transitions. Employing holistic approaches rooted in mindfulness, body-centered modalities, and compassion-focused therapy, my aim as a clinician is to support people in uncovering their own answers by tapping into their innate capacity for repair and thriving. When applicable, I apply my Yoga teacher certification and Ayurvedic health coaching to certain treatment goals.

Navigating life’s challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming and intimidating. As your therapist, I’ll hold space for you to express your fears and vulnerabilities in a supportive space. Together, we can actively explore challenges you’re experiencing, and generate solutions based on your needs and strengths. I create a nurturing environment for clients through genuine compassion, patience, and open-mindedness. My style is kind and warm, infused with creativity, mindfulness, and a sense of humor. As a therapist and previous educator, I have extensive experience supporting individuals of varying abilities and identities.

I work with clients' strengths, providing treatment for relationship issues, family dynamics, depression, anxiety, ADHD, ASD, grief and loss, life transitions, conflict resolution, self-compassion, mindfulness, communication skills, nonviolent communication (NVC), trauma, self-regulation, stress management, codependency, and climate anxiety, grief, and resiliency. I work with people indoors, outdoors, and through telehealth.

I am a licensed psychologist at Aslan Institute, a holistic mental health clinic, and offer psychotherapy to adults (18+) and clinical supervision to LPCs, LPCCs and LPs. I am a certified clinical supervisor with the Minnesota BBHT. Promoting self-awareness, compassion and self-empowerment is central to my approach. I teach courses on Human Consciousness - to promote "waking up" and "growing up" for people at different stages of development. Areas of speciality: anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, poor body image/eating struggles, history of abuse/neglect, complex trauma and adjustment disorders.

Currently accepting new clients: Individuals, adolescents, couples and families! If you are looking for a compassionate therapist to support you in your healing and happiness, you have come to the right place. Using a holistic approach to overall health and well-being, I assist client's in doing the work necessary to feel better. Some of my specialties include stress management, anxiety, depression, trauma, parenting, pain management, chronic health conditions, relationships, veterans/military families and first responders.

Have you had a recent change in your life and want a safe person to talk with to better understand yourself? Perhaps your feelings have felt more intense: anxiety, depression, confusion, or desire to find purpose to your life. You look around - seeking answers, understanding, & deeper healing. Maybe a life situation unfolded and you were suddenly on a path you never imagined (job loss, divorce, etc) or one you wanted to be on but it’s more stressful or different than what you thought (attending college or a new job). If this is you, I can support you. I approach all my clients with the understanding that we are capable of change.

For all of us are navigating life, throughout it, we can find ourselves in a place where we want to change what the landscape looks like. As a therapist with over a decade of experience, I believe that therapy itself is a journey that we choose to be on. As the person choosing to do this, I want you decide where we go and how fast to get there. I serve as a GPS: I can give you directions, but you are the expert of yourself. My role is to help you get from life what you are looking for.
