Autism Therapists in Minneapolis, MN

I am a passionate therapist who believes in the power of change. As a mother of two, a wife, a child development specialist and a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist, I, personally and professionally understand the highs and lows in parenting and relationships. Together, we will put the joy back into parenting, your partnership and in life! With over a decade of experience working with families, individuals and couples, I am able to help empower you, engage your children and build your relationships.

Life is hard. That’s pretty clear. But it’s made all the more difficult for those who are autistic, carry trauma, or are within the LGBTQIA+ community. The difficulty is unique. Whether it’s having an invisible disability, not being able to trust others, or fighting for acceptance, the ability to navigate life can be challenging. There’s hope. And I can help. Together we will work through the stories you’ve been taught, the expectations you’ve had to meet, and the experiences that brought you further and further from yourself.

I have been working with kids, teens, and families for over ten years. Whether it has been in a children’s hospital, an intensive program, or a small community practice, I have continued to learn and grow alongside my patients. I believe that trust, compassion and a sense of humor allow for a strong therapeutic relationship. My philosophy is that all of us - kids, parents, and people - do well when we are able to do well.

Do you ever feel stuck? Like you’re in the same relationship over and over with a different face to the same problem? Or that if only you could do something different, life would feel better, but when the time comes you feel frozen? Feeling stuck in unhealthy patterns can be frustrating and frightening. The great thing is that you don’t need anyone’s permission to begin accessing your own power to live authentically and joyfully as yourself.

You have managed to convince others that you are okay, but you can’t fool yourself. You have felt so overwhelmed for so long you don’t remember what it is like to feel at peace. Your relationships are unsatisfying (or nonexistent), your schedule is out of control, and you aren't even sure what it would look like for you to feel happy with your life. You keep trying to develop healthy habits but you always seem to fall back into the same patterns. At this point, it’s tempting to just accept that your symptoms will never improve. Perhaps you've even tried therapy before but it wasn't as helpful as you had hoped it would be...

My approach to therapy is relationship based, flexible and eclectic. When you come into session, you can expect unconditional care, respect for your unique story and a touch of humor. Therapy can provide a safe space for you to get grounded, feel your feelings, learn, strategize and let go of what is no longer serving you.

I offer people a safe space to explore and express problems, obstacles, and successes, discover potentials, priorities, and solutions, and achieve goals and dreams. I offer both traditional talk therapy and art therapy. Art expression is particularly beneficial when verbal expression becomes difficult.

I have specialized experience with people who have emotional, behavioral, and cognitive problems, as well as serious and persistent mental illnesses. In addition to in person, I can also offer Telehealth services via video for individuals when it is appropriate.

As a licensed clinical social worker, I focus on overall wellness to identify and treat mental health disorders and teach skills to encourage overall well-being.

Hi! My name is Rosie. My pronouns are she/they. In my therapy practice, I work with children and teens between the ages of 4 to 18, and families. My focus is working with individuals who have experienced struggles related to anxiety and mood disorders, neurodevelopmental disorders, learning disabilities, attachment disruption, changes in the family system, adjustment to stressors, and the impacts of chronic stress and trauma, as well as identify development.

Are you tired of anxiety controlling your life? Constant racing thoughts, turning something over and over in your mind and never getting clarity, body tension, difficulty staying present and enjoying your life... all of that is truly exhausting. Anxiety impacts not only the relationship with ourselves but also the relationships we have with others. Anxiety creates a disconnect and makes it feel impossible to live in the present moment and feel connected to others. It doesn't have to be this way. There's a path towards freedom from the constraints of your own mind and I'm happy to walk with you on that path.

Are you an older teen or adult ages 17-65 years old?

Change and relief are possible and you don't have to do it alone. I also see couples, polycules, or other non-trad partnerships.

I believe you are the authority on your own life. Within you exists the potential to express your authentic self and to live a fulfilling life. However, there are times in our lives when we may experience stress, depression, anxiety, anger, or complacency.

I can assist struggling parents in building strong relationships with their children to parent in healthy ways. I appreciate most working with persons who have experienced trust betrayals and abuse. Children who have witnessed and/or experienced abuse; young people questioning whether they can be who they really are and be accepted; adults in violent, controlling relationships. I also have a particular passion for working with people who are concerned about their own or a loved one’s involvement in a high-demand group – whether it be religious, political, business, therapy, or a single controlling partner — commonly called “cults”.
