Therapists for Adults in Fridley, MN
I believe healing begins when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood, not in moments where you feel judged, rushed, or “fixed.” I work with individuals who may be experiencing stress, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, or patterns that no longer serve them. Many of the people I work with have experienced trauma and are tired of holding everything together on their own.

Therapy for me is the art, informed by the psychological sciences, of helping a person bring integration and wholeness to their life with the profound understanding that the human person has the potential to be more beautiful after we experience trauma in whatever form than before. I’m convinced this is true, even if it may sound hard to believe and just a nice-sounding statement.

Pain. I remember a time when I was in such emotional pain I wished someone had beaten me—because at least that would heal faster and ease the deep hurt that broke my heart. You may be experiencing similar pain for a variety of reasons, but I can testify there is healing—and counseling can help with that process. I love the words of Psalm 147:3, “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” There is hope and healing from pain!

We exist in complex environments where a "burn it down" mindset feels on the horizon for many (if we are not already there!). I have developed a passion in my previous work with survivors of sexual violence, those experiencing homelessness, and those with severe and persistent mental illness to reduce harm through the development of healthy relationships and effective skills to manage what the world throws at us. In our shared therapeutic space, I prioritize creating a supportive, brave, and validating relationship in which we explore both the forest and the trees.

FAQ - About Adult Counseling
Why should adults see a therapist?
Adults may benefit from therapy for a wide range of reasons—whether it’s managing symptoms of a diagnosed mental health condition like anxiety or depression, navigating life transitions, coping with grief or trauma, or simply seeking support during a challenging life period. Many adults find that therapy helps them build healthier coping skills and better process their emotions, which may lead to better relationships and reduced stress. It’s important to note that, unlike psychiatrists or primary care physicians, therapists do not prescribe psychiatric medication. However, they will often work alongside prescribing clinicians to ensure coordinated care and can provide behavioral therapy as an important addition to psychiatric medication. Mental health concerns can look different in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence, so finding a therapist with expertise working with adult clients is important. Conditions like major depressive disorder (MDD), generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), bipolar disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for instance, may present or resurface differently in adulthood than in childhood or adolescence. Adult-specific stressors, such as job strain, caregiving responsibilities, relationship challenges, financial stress, or identity transitions, can also influence the onset and type of symptoms an individual experiences. Adult-focused therapists, therefore, are trained to understand these complexities and tailor care accordingly.
How do I know if a therapist is the right fit for me?
When seeking care, it’s important to understand a therapist’s treatment specialties and their overall approach to treatment . Some therapists focus on common adult conditions like anxiety or depression, while others specialize in areas such as trauma, substance use disorders, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. It’s also important to consider a therapist’s training when seeking care. Therapists hold various licenses depending on their training and state requirements. Common therapy credentials include Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Mental Health Counselors (LMHCs), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs). Psychologists (PhD or PsyD) receive additional doctoral-level training and may focus on assessments or more specialized therapeutic approaches. All of these professionals can provide talk therapy but do not prescribe medication. When searching for a therapist, consider their credentials and training background to ensure a good fit.
How do I find a therapist who sees adults?
Psychology Today’s online directory allows you to search specifically for therapists who work with adults. Each provider profile includes key information such as clinical specialties, therapeutic approaches, licensure, accepted insurance plans, languages spoken, and session fees. Reviewing these details can help you determine whether a particular provider aligns with your needs and can indicate whether they are a good match for adult clients.
