Dissociative Disorders (DID) Therapists in Minneapolis, MN

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) serving the Twin Cities area, passionate about helping and supporting people. I believe that as humans we are always evolving from the experiences that life offers, which has steered me to believe in the interconnectedness of all life, and therefore my practice operates from a framework honoring the unity of the mind, body and spirit. I believe that each person is unique and that there is no one approach to the problems they present.

I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma or mental illness that may have contributed to problematic substance use. I am passionate about working with individuals who want to grow and change their lives. I push back against the stigma society attaches to mental illness and substance use, championing the belief that we all do the best we can to survive and connect with others. At the same time, I recognize that the coping skills we develop are not always sustainable and can cause other problems in our lives.

Who of us does not wish to feel at ease, able to express our fullest self wherever we may find ourselves. The counseling process is an invitation to grow, to remember who we are, to gain ways to fully express our true self and our potential. You will find my style to be both supportive and collaborative, and the environment in which we meet to be warm and welcoming. My education and therapeutic training is in cognitive/behavioral, humanistic and transpersonal approaches.

I am a licensed psychotherapist with a concentration in trauma. I work with issues unique to people suffering the effects of complex trauma, complex childhood trauma and single incident trauma.

I work individually with clients within their unique family systems. I include and invite the complexity and dignity of unconventional relationship structures and affirm the challenges and joys they provide.

Humans often endure complicated transitions and unexpected challenges while learning to navigate the world. I especially enjoy working with people during dynamic times of life like middle school, high school, and college. I also specialize in work with creative individuals and artists. Clients are warmly accepted in my practice for who they are today. I help clients better understand their brain and their body's responses. My goal is to provide a stable environment that is both supportive and challenging. Together, we explore what that person values, where they want to go, what they would like to change, and who they want to become.

Can you describe a therapist as “kick-a$s”? I’m not even sure. If you can, that’s how we’d describe him. He’s smart, funny, and really digs in. If you got something you need figured out, he’s definitely someone you want on your team. David genuinely wants you to be happy, and will do what he can to make sure you are. He thrives on understanding. Thus, clients that work with him will certainly be understood for who they are, what they need, and what is holding them back.

I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced complex trauma. My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative and non-pathologizing. Clients often find me because of my experience as a Certified Internal Family Systems Therapist or Certified Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. I use experiential models that take us beyond traditional talk therapy by slowing down, connecting with what is happening on the inside, offer healing to the wounded parts, and connecting with inner resources. Client’s often report an increase sense of self-compassion, calmness, clarity & confidence in themselves.

As we journey through life, we carry with us experiences that shape who we are and who we become. Some of those experiences are positive and some of those experiences are negative. It can be difficult to explore our thoughts, feelings, and experiences. No matter where you are or how deep the darkness seems, you don’t have to walk through it alone. Whether addressing anxiety, depression, or relationship issues—together, we can look at the bigger picture and come up with an action plan to help you work toward your goals and prioritize what matters to you most.

My goal for my clients is to reduce the profound effects of challenging life events. I believe addressing the mind, body, and soul is the most effective way to heal from unexpected occurrences that affect us all. I believe most mental health symptoms and many medical issues originate in these events rather than being deficits or disorders of the person. These issues can be resolved through therapies that address the whole person. I am passionate and committed to helping individuals achieve a connection to themselves and others. I draw upon over thirty years of education and experience to guide clients through their unique journey.
