Blue Cross Therapists in Maple Grove, MN

At Innovative Psychological Consultants I routinely see children and adolescent who are struggling in school or with family conflicts. I am able to quickly connect with young people, gain their trust, and get to the bottom of the issues they are struggling with. I also work with parents to find the best system of continuity for their children and assist with any parental coaching that may be needed so that kids are thriving with parental consistency and follow through.

I've worked with people of all ages across the lifespan. Throughout my career I have worked with people of all ages managing experiences of depression, anxiety, addiction, technology, trauma, and abuse. I am "geek" and LBGTQ+ friendly and have experience with people from diverse cultural, economic, and ethnic backgrounds. I also have extensive experience working with people and families managing chronic illness, hospice and palliative care, and end of life decisions. With affirmation, practical education, and clinical guidance, I help individuals gain personal insights, nurture relationships, and manage difficulties in their lives.

My work at Innovative Psychological Consultants has taught me that life is full of twists and turns. Sometimes no amount of training can prepare you for what comes. When you find yourself overwhelmed and confused, it can be useful to talk things through with a neutral person who can help organize your thoughts, explore your feelings, and work collaboratively to create solutions and next steps.

A client who would be a good fit who is an individual or family that want to go to therapy. I don't have preferences when it comes to ages and genders or sexuality. Although kids and teens have gravitated towards me because of my playful nature, and creativity in sessions. I find myself drawn to working with individuals who often people please, carry feelings of guilt, self doubt, and low self esteem. I enjoy watching others identify boundaries and help implement them. I work best with people who are open and curious in trying new things. Let collaborate and reach those goals!

Are you making a big change in your life like changing jobs/careers, divorce, experiencing a loss or retirement? Maybe it's a change you should be happy about....but you're not. Did you know Anxiety and Depression encourage negative thoughts that stall changes, isolate people, effect career growth and challenge supportive relationships? I can help you learn how to combat the negative voices of Depression and Anxiety. Learn how to be your best "you" and enjoy life more.

I support you--an adult, a teen, or the child you love--overcome the suffering associated with anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, poor self-regulation, anger management, a negative self-image, lack of motivation, the effect of unresolved past experiences, challenging transitions, living and aging well with or without serious health concerns, and the frustration and hopelessness parents, partners, and children of all ages often feel communicating in families with entrenched in high conflict, power-over relationship patterns. I facilitate your path toward a more positive future with trauma sensitive evidence based practices.

The journey to emotional health begins with discovering and nurturing the authentic self. When we make choices that are inconsistent with who we are, our ability to participate in life, to love and work is compromised. This can often lead to avoiding the things that truly matter to us causing us to feel depressed or anxious. When this happens, we tend to avoid more. And the cycle continues. In my work, I help clients (ages 16+) re-engage with life focusing on their values and what matters most to them.

I encourage the process of developing an authentic and integrated relationship to one's self and others. At the same time, I often give direct advice. I have provided psychotherapy for over 23-years and believe it works! I am aware that most people seek therapy after having had many attempts to address their symptoms alone and remained confused.

In my work at Innovative Psychological Consultants I know that finding the right connection and fit is one of the most important things in therapy and counseling.

Others are looking for specific tools to help move them in a certain direction. We work together to figure out what will be best for you and how to get there.

Throughout life we have experiences and we create meaning about those experiences. These narratives that we create interact with and influence our thoughts, feelings, and interactions with others. Sometimes, our narratives can create interpersonal problems or hold us back in living our day-to-day lives. Beverly works to increase one's self awareness to support them in seeing existing patterns and to help one separate themselves from the problem to discover workable solutions and find hope.
