Therapists in Downtown, Minneapolis, MN

I believe in Temple Grandin's declaration, "I am different, not less." As a Certified Autism Specialist, I enjoy working with those who are neurodivergent thinkers, have an Autism or ADHD diagnosis, or who share traits with ASD/ADHD. My Texas-based therapy practice aims for you to feel supported, respected, and guided to find wellness and growth in your life. Are you wanting to improve your relationships, or share with others your truest self? I'd love to help. In addition to in-person, you can meet with me via telehealth throughout the states of Texas and Minnesota.

Most people want to live peaceful and productive lives, but sometimes worry, sadness, frustration, and relationship difficulties get in the way. If you struggle with feeling down, or feeling anxious, or are having trouble in your relationships with loved ones or friends or coworkers, I may be able to help you find new ways to cope, and to break through the obstacles standing in your way.

I'll help you to find your way. Serious help for serious problems. See my website at petergrantphd.com

Hi I'm Linda Etim and I specialize in working with women and men who are in toxic relationships. My unique approach is designed to help you detach from and avoid these toxic relationships. I also work with those who are suffering from anxiety, depression, racial injustice and everyday life stressors.

As a licensed psychologist I have over 20 years working with couples, families, children, adolescents and individuals. I specialize in anxiety disorders, depression and trauma. I furthermore have extensive experience working with chronic illnesses including MS, Lupus, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia,, COPD, diabetes and Lyme disease. I love working with couples, with complex issues, and working with individuals of diverse cultural backgrounds. My work is client centered with a focus on the client's strengths and competencies in the world. My approach is creative and intuitive, with a strong foundation in scientific theory.

Psychotherapy is not about a diagnosis. It's about your life and the problems you are facing. And it is about my helping you learn about yourself and grow as a person, so that you can better deal with those problems and lead a happier, fuller life. I have been a therapist for 35 years, and I am experienced in working with a variety of issues and problems. I am flexible and tailor my work to each patient, because 'one size does NOT fit all.' I will listen carefully, AND I will actively help you solve your problems.

*Not accepting new clients & no waitlist* I’m a relational therapist who provides individual therapy to adolescents and adults and couples therapy to couples at any stage, who adhere to any relationship configuration. I believe suffering and pain stem from disconnection and my hope is to help reconnect you with what’s most meaningful in your life. I will develop a trusting therapeutic connection with you, assist you in identifying past experiences, beliefs, & behavioral patterns that contribute to disconnection in your life, and collaborate with you to take steps towards creating and deepening connection with yourself and others.

I provide outpatient psychotherapy services to individuals, couples and families with a focus on assessment and treatment that is culturally sensitive.

I believe therapy can be a space to try on new ways of thinking and being, building insight and self-awareness so you can overcome blocks to creating the life you deeply desire. You can expect me to work hard to understand you and your history, offering an equal mix of nurturing, education and clear sighted perspective. We’ll work together to chart a vision for the road ahead, noting areas for growth, needed skills, and current strengths and resources. In session, and in life, my style is informal, warm, playful and compassionate. I bring a body-positive, sex-positive, feminist and anti-oppressive lens to my work.

Our feelings are our most genuine paths to knowledge--Audre Lorde. Attending to feelings, beliefs, and behaviors in a safe and accepting environment is at the forefront of our work together. Learning about the influence of past and present psychological, social, and cultural experience through ongoing self exploration is essential to understanding your internal world. Discovering the origin of and meanings attached to symptoms of depression, anxiety, conflict in personal/professional relationships, or difficulty managing emotions/behaviors are central to my approach. Increased awareness leads to clarity, and ultimately a greater capacity to gain mastery over your feelings, thoughts, and actions.

Are you having trouble in your close relationships? Tired of fighting about everything? Do you feel like your family life is completely out of control? My clients - families, couples and individuals alike - tell me that they appreciate my kindness, sense of humor and calm non-judgmental outlook. Our relationships are the foundation of well being and that is where I put my focus as a therapist. It can be tough to untangle things but you CAN rebuild relationship - it IS doable. I believe whole-heartedly that we do best when we are connected to one another in a healthy way.

I believe that when we explore our identity and life experiences from a place that feels safe and compassionate, we discover our unique strengths to overcome obstacles and take action in the direction that feels most aligned with our deepest values. I specialize in multicultural issues and trauma-informed care with my clients. I have extensive experience helping clients work through depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, relational problems, LGBTQ+ and gender specific issues, as well as culturally specific concerns.

Are you going through the motions of life right now, stuck in a rut of compulsions, fear, or poor communication? Do you wonder how you got to this place and if there is any hope of getting out? I work with clients in individual, couple, and marriage and family settings to identify how they got stuck and where to go next. My typical clients are working through issues surrounding their marriage/partnership, life transitions, OCD, or anxiety.

*Immediate Appointments Available* If you're feeling stuck or seeking a safe, warm place to heal and grow, I can meet you there. We'll work together to identify and work through the concerns that are important to you and that are disrupting your ability to live your best life as your full self.

My goal as a therapist is to offer my clients a relationship that is safe, empowering, and collaborative. Together, we will explore and understand your unique struggles and obstacles to greater self-awareness and personal growth. Through the therapy process, I help my clients more effectively cope with the demands of their lives. At the same time, I help them develop a greater understanding of the underlying causes and patterns that contribute to the stress in their lives.

You're here because something about sex or your relationship has been a concern for months or maybe years. You wonder "will it always be this way? Is it possible to feel better?" It's lonely and overwhelming to feel disconnected from your sexuality and your partner. It can cause a rift in your social life, trickle into your work, and your general ability to relax. I'm here to help you discover, heal, and renew erotic pleasure.

I am dedicated to helping others re-experience themselves. While we all experience struggles, there are times when managing them can be more difficult. Feelings of vulnerability, shame, and fear can easily become chains that hold us down. We begin to give away our power by allowing others to decide how we experience ourselves, our relationships, and our lives. We use food, emotions, behaviors, alcohol, and drugs hoping to protect ourselves. In these attempts we surrender even more power. The energy we once used to live in love, abundance, and wellness is no longer available: as a limited resource, it's now all used up.

In my practice, I enjoy working collaboratively with my clients to help them find solutions to the issues that have been bothering them. I value creating a strong, trusting relationship with my clients so that they feel comfortable and confident in our work together. My style is warm and interactive and I primarily utilize a client centered approach, meaning that I place strong value on your experiences and the lens through which you see the world. My goal is to help you find your best path toward change and personal growth by creating a supportive space in which to explore.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who provides therapy for individuals ages 14+. I have training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) & DBT-Prolonged Exposure (DBT-PE) for PTSD.

My clinical interests include treating depression, anxiety, trauma, suicidal thoughts and self-harm, personality disorders, women’s issues, disordered eating/body image concerns and shifting to a Health at Every Size mindset, self-esteem issues, adolescent/young adult issues, and relationship concerns.
