Therapists in Downtown, Minneapolis, MN

There is no "one size fits all" in effective therapy. While we may be all facing some common stressors, each person, couple, or family is different and I adapt accordingly to help foster growth and wellness that fits your life. I am committed to creating a genuine and supportive environment to explore your goals, feelings, and stuck points by integrating a variety of evidence-based modalities. Together we will alleviate stress and interpersonal strain, build balance, and promote long-term wellness. Please visit my website at www.brennamcgee.com for additional information and I look forward to meeting you!

I believe the problems we experience in living are woven into the fabric of our lives and rooted in enduring patterns of thinking, feeling, and relating to others. These problems develop in relationship to others over the course of our lives. And it is in relationship—a relationship in which the attentive presence of another is truly and deeply felt—that these problems can be healed. In an atmosphere of curiosity and acceptance, we will work together to deepen your awareness and understanding of your needs, desires, and patterns of relating so you may experience greater freedom and fulfillment in your life.

Using art we will uncover your strengths and passions for you to live your life with joy and purpose. The answers are already within. Let's find them together

Are you curious about exploring and embracing the messiness (and goodness) that comes with being human? You & me both. In a few words, my style is down to earth, collaborative, and relational. Laughter: therapeutic; swearing: more than welcome. Oftentimes, the universe seems to enjoy throwing curveballs right when life starts to settle. I join clients in navigating those ‘unexpecteds’ and strengthening into their authentic selves in the process. I currently provide individual, couples, & joint couples therapy with Dr. Starlain Saldana (2 therapists + one couple in the room).

I enjoy helping foster a sense of resiliency, empowerment, and strength in my clients.

I work with people who have symptoms, such as depression and anxiety, and with people who feel as though they are not moving forward in life in the ways they had hoped. They may feel frustrated that they are not finding satisfying relationships or the gratifying career that they had always thought they would.

There is tremendous freedom in letting go and liberating yourself from things that create blockages and discontent in your life. Now is the time to look within yourself for increased happiness and joy! My goal when I work with clients is to promote love, connection and harmony both on an individual level and in your relationships with others. I help women recover and heal from narcissistic relationships that they have left. I also support all my clients in joyfully healing from anxiety, depression, life transitions and relationship issues utilizing holistic healing modalities to address every angle of your spirit.

I love working with GLBTQ+ couples in any form of relationship, people wanting to explore their creativity and/or gender, and anyone who wants to feel more aligned and empowered. It is my hope that the therapeutic journey will lead you to feel a deeper connection with yourself and a richer set of community/spiritual connections that let you experience authentic belonging. I want to co-create a space of courageous introspection that allows you to look back at your past and to name the moments in your present that need tending.

Therapy is a relational dynamic process. I work to create a nurturing, compassionate, safe space that honors individual healing processes. My integrative holistic approach to psychotherapy means that I combine attachment theory, neuroscience, cognitive behavioral theory, and psychodynamic theory with the wisdom and insights from mindfulness-based practices, creative expression, and nature. Working with me, you will gain insight into your emotional world, understand how you work, learn what gives you comfort and contentment during difficult times, develop new coping skills to help during times of anxiety/depression, and make changes in your life so you can live more fully.
