Family Therapy in Brooklyn Park, MN

I am finishing my master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy at National University. I worked as a CPA for KPMG, and then focused on raising my 6 children, lately as a single parent. I am familiar with managing the Serious and Persistent Mental illnesses of close relatives. I am passionate about helping my clients get to the other side of turbulent events like divorce and other major unexpected life changes. I welcome the exploration of my client’s faith as they tackle seemingly insurmountable obstacles. I am fluent in French, Creole, and English. I also have a decent command of Spanish. ​ ​

Hello and welcome! My name is Amanda and I have been in the field as a therapist for over 13 years. As a therapist it is my goal to give you the space, time, and support to overcome the struggles you may be facing. I work hard to help you find your own empowerment to work through the difficulties that life throws your way. I am gentle, yet direct when needed, in therapy. When it comes to working with families or children/adolescents, my goal is to teach the family how to communicate and work together more effectively. I look forward to helping guide and support you in the ways you need to heal

Let me start by saying thank you for being here today. Choosing to seek therapy can be a challenging decision but a courageous one, nonetheless. Hi, I’m Shakara, a passionate Marriage and Family Therapist Intern studying at Capella University with an expected graduation date of September 2024. As a dedicated learner and compassionate listener, I’m committed to supporting individuals, couples, and families on their journey toward healing and growth. I have vast experience working with children, adolescents, and adults across their lifespans for the last 12 years in various capacities.

Life can bring about a whirlwind of ups and downs. You might find yourself dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, coping skills, and everyday life struggles. Do you want to improve your well-being, gain insight into your thoughts and behavior, develop effective strategies for managing your emotions, and live a happier, more confident, and better equipped to handle life's challenges?

Throughout life, people face various obstacles. These obstacles may feel overwhelming and sometimes, insurmountable. Working with a therapist who is a good fit is a magnificent strength to help during these times. I work to create a safe environment to foster development of healthy communication skills and emphasize how to utilize support systems and healthy coping skills. I have experience working with adolescents in a school setting, in day treatment, in group therapy, and in an outpatient individual treatment setting. I have also worked with adults in a day treatment setting in addition to outpatient therapy.

I have 20 years' combined experience working with culturally, ethnically and generationally diverse clients in therapy, chemical use, restorative justice, and counseling children and families in need. I'm dedicated to enthusiastic, respectful and dynamic interactions as a means of creating and nurturing community interest. As a psychotherapist and LADC, I've worked with adults, adolescents, and families from all walks of life. My goal is to foster well-being in individuals and families. I seek to eliminate the stigma of shame and guilt associated with mental health and substance use, which leads to understanding, respectful conversations that enable healing.

I work with couples, families, and individuals to find their strength, helping to guide them towards healing and a better tomorrow. My work with couples and families is designed to strengthen their relationships. I also work with individuals experiencing the pain of depression, dealing with anxiety, those struggling with the weight of grief, having trouble getting past anger and much more. My passion is to help others grow relationships and become stronger individuals.

We are a group of psychiatrists, psychologists, clinical social workers, and marriage-family therapists committed to providing high quality and comprehensive mental health care for adults, adolescents and children.

When you visit a BHSI clinic, you can expect strict confidentiality and skilled, compassionate care. For your convenience, we offer flexible appointment scheduling.

I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families and tap into their inner wisdom in order to deal with the challenges they are facing in their relationships. Whether it is within their family relationships, peer relationships or the relationship with one's self, the healing wisdom resides within. It is my pleasure to accompany you on the journey to unlock this knowledge that will improve the quality of your life and the quality of your relationships with those you love. I see people either in person or virtually.

I believe in the importance of sharing knowledge about the mind-body relationship of trauma, panic, anxiety, and depression, to help my clients understand what they have been experiencing and why, and how to move forward. My specialties are school-aged children and adolescents and their families, and young adults, but I do trauma-focused therapy with all ages. My clinical interests include trauma, anxiety, panic, depression, and transitional stress, whether that be exploring or revealing sexuality and/or gender identity, developmental transitions, managing increasing expectations of early adulthood, or navigating life changes.

Transforming trauma into triumph: healing starts here. Let's embark on a journey of self-discovery & growth. I strive to break barriers, end toxic cycles & reduce the stigma. I am passionate about embracing diversity & inclusivity in therapy to provide a safe space for BIPOC voices to be heard. As a child of immigrants with a bicultural background (Lao & Korean), I can bring a unique perspective. I can empathize with cultural differences in mental health treatment & generational trauma. I believe in the crucial link between mental health & overall well-being. I hope to work alongside clients, guiding them to a self-healing journey.
