Family Therapy in 55337

I absolutely adore working with people who are ready to face the things in life keeping them stuck and walking alongside them in the journey of getting to where they want to be. Whether it's interpersonal challenges with friends, family, or partners, professional transitions, identity shifts, or anything in between, I'm here for it! My ideal client is someone who is excited (even if a little nervous..) about the journey of therapy, regardless of why they are starting or re-starting, and are open to direct and honest conversation, practicing skills between sessions, and doing the incredible work of shifting toward intentional living.

Working with children/youth who have social and emotional deficits is my passion. As a systems therapist I am committed to assisting each child/youth while also working with the family to handle difficulties that come with having a child with unique needs. My clients may have autism, ADHD, anxiety, depression, or other mood/impulse control concerns which cause behavioral and relationship difficulties. Treatment plans are based on concepts of "Social Thinking" as well as behavioral and play-based interventions, CBT and Family Therapy approaches to maximize the learning and retention of skills across multiple settings.

Helping people who feel stuck get unstuck is my passion. Finding balance and addressing feeling disconnected or overwhelmed. Offering enthusiastic support and new perspectives on the underlying reasons a person or couple is struggling and then how to make real change. We will build awareness and incorporate new skills to address whatever feels hard right now. And working towards being more content. Often, this includes helping people learn how to better identify and communicate their needs and hopes and desires.

Dr. Laura Ehlert, PsyD, LP specializes in working with children who display developmental issues such as ADHD, poor emotion regulation, impulsivity, processing/learning deficits, social skills delays and poor behavior management. Clients and families interested in understanding how their child's brain and sensory systems work to create these behavioral and emotional issues will find my approach to be very effective and supportive to everyone in the family system or school environment.

I believe building trust and rapport with my clients is essential throughout their therapeutic journey. I view my space as an atmosphere of relaxation where individuals, couples and families can feel safe in expressing themselves. I understand the healing process is not linear, and each individual has their own unique journey toward recovery. I utilize a strength-based perspective with my clients and emphasize the distinctive strengths each individual holds which assist them in dealing with challenging situations that emerge in life. I am flexible with scheduling during evening hours.

Hi! My name is Rachel and I'm the owner of Nesting Connections, LLC. My ideal client would be children between the ages of birth to 18, caregivers, or teachers seeking reflective consultation. Reasons caregivers have requested my services include: anxiety, depression, hoarding, excessive lying, attachment concerns, selective mutism, defiance, suicidal ideation, self-harming, bullying, social skills, foster care/adoption, truancy, grief, family discord, developmental concerns, and most frequently-trauma. I also enjoy providing prenatal therapy to process bonding with baby.

I believe that a successful therapeutic relationship can become the catalyst to change, one interaction, one session at a time. Therapy sessions with me are targeted to provide security in the vulnerability required to do the deep and restorative work necessary to make positive change. My job as a therapist is to create a relationship that honors that space and guides my clients through growth personally, in their relationships, and their lives as a whole. My background and experience in child psychology lends itself to insight into parenting as well as reflection upon family of origin as it manifests in the present.

Many men want healthy relationships but find themselves living a double life. Do you find yourself hiding infidelity, seeking out anonymous partners, compulsively using pornography, or struggling being open and honest in your relationships? Do you feel like there is a part of you that is uncontrollable, that you can't stop even though you are facing consequences - from your partner, your family, or your own shame and guilt?

Are you struggling with having enough strength to get up every day and take care of yourself or engage in your responsibilities? Are you a woman trying to parent and figure out how to overcome generational stress or trauma? Be the best mom you can be? You know you're living a better life than you had but something still feels like it's missing? Are you making bad choices in relationships and with men? You're smart and you know better but you're stuck in a cycle? Are you married and struggling to like one another but you know you want to work it out? You've read so many books, done so much self-help you're going to explode.

My passion is to come along side of you in your struggles, offering hope and encouragement that you can find healing and wholeness in your life. My commitment is to provide an environment that is supportive and safe. We will journey together to find the pathway to a new life; a life filled with meaning, purpose and fulfillment.

Hello! I am Nicole (she/her/hers) a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Art Therapist. I've worked in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area for 9 years; primarily with adolescents, children, their families, and their support networks. I'm passionate about encouraging teens, young adults, families, and individuals to keep going. I aim to provide an environment that is conducive to growth through honoring who you are, what you need in the moment, and how you will get to where you'd like to be. I do this through providing a safe, comfortable, authentic, and supportive place you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Life can bring some unexpected twists and turns, and it can be helpful to talk with someone to process, and heal from these events. I consider it an honor to hold space for clients, and provide a safe place for you to be heard, find healing, and to gain skills and tools to bring you more freedom, and peace . I work from a mind, body, spirit perspective and upon your request, I enjoy integrating Christian faith, and spiritual interventions into your care.

Feeling a sense of belonging is crucial to mental health. You want to feel like you matter to your community, your loved ones, and yourself. Whether struggling in your primary relationship, feeling like you don't fit in with your faith community because of your unique beliefs or identity, or feeling unable to sense your own worth generally, help is available. I will empower you by helping you see how your strengths can help you rekindle a belief in your worth and abilities. Through both empathy and accountability, I can help you find joy in your relationships and your life generally.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or unable to feel control over your life, you are not alone. I believe most people at some time in their life are in need of support and guidance through difficult periods. Throughout the therapeutic process, it is important to me to establish a good foundation and relationship with my clients in order to share a bond of trust and acceptance. Throughout our journey, I incorporate skills which help my clients to understand themselves better, as well as give them coping strategies for relief along the way.

True North is your orientating point. It is your point of discipline. Motivation will fail you every time. Find your discipline and you will find your freedom. I have 8+ years as a therapist specializing in adolescent health, parent coaching and trauma informed therapies for individuals, couples and families; speciality groups include veterans and first responders. Therapy & skills work are vital in both self regulation and self awareness, however holistic/integrative modalities can enhance a strong therapeutic framework. As such, I am also an IASIS provider (Microcurrent Neurofeedback), helpful in balancing your nervous system.

During my forty years in the field I am continually amazed at the power of human connection. My goal as a psychotherapist is to enable each individual that I work with to experience their most empowered, real and authentic self in the here and now. This experience in therapy includes concentrating on strengths that we all have yet in our darkest times fade from our awareness. My commitment to my clients is to have available as many options as possible so no matter what the presenting issue, I will have the skills needed.

I imagine you're seeking a psychotherapist for counseling because you hope to make some important changes. Success working with a psychologist depends on you feeling comfortable engaging in a collaborative manner with her. Some therapy sessions may be difficult as you ask important questions about yourself, how you function in the world. As you proceed, you may experience frustration, confusion, anxiety, self-doubt and/or conflicted feelings, but at the end of your psychotherapy you'll most likely have learned something new to help you with the concerns that brought you in to seek psychological treatment.

Do you feel stuck in the same pattern of conflict and wish for better communication with the important people in your life? Do you want to deepen connection with yourself and others? Do you need to find ways to set boundaries with those around you? A supportive, collaborative, and safe therapeutic relationship can help you work through all of the above, and more.
