Hello! My name is Shanti Behrens, M.ED, LPC, LPCC I identify as Desi (South Asian) and am a cis woman who uses she/her pronouns.  I am a person-centered therapist who enjoys working with clients in a team approach to help them gain insight into their symptoms and find coping strategies. We all have the right to be happy, healthy and safe...and to show up in the world unapologetically which looks and feels different for every individual.

Are you experiencing a relationship crisis, frequent conflict, or a general sense that something is missing in your relationship? Feeling like roommates? Are you wondering if you should leave your relationship? You can learn how to create a strong, loving emotional bond with your partner! I am a Marriage and Family Therapist with extensive experience helping people heal relationships. I help couples find ways to increase intimacy, work through a relationship crisis, or reduce conflict. I also help families establish loving and respectful relationships between members, or work through a family crisis.

Hello! We may need additional help to get through life's challenges at times. My therapy style provides a safe place and walks with you in your life's challenges. Sometimes, we just need some extra help. My goal is to prevent unnecessary hospitalizations and avert individuals from that high-level setting.

I work with all populations of clients. I am especially interested in working with client with bipolar disorder and PTSD. I started my journey in doing therapy because my brother struggled with bipolar disorder and addiction for many years. For many years he could not find the care he needed, so he struggled more than he had to. I want help client learn about their mental health and how to manage their symptoms, so they can lead healthy productive lives.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in MN and have provided mental health services for over 10 years. My years of experience have included working with high risk families (including abuse, neglect, and mental illness), children at risk of being placed outside of the home or helping families to reunify, coaching parents on how to implement more effective parenting strategies (ie. Love and Logic, 123 Magic, etc), foster care support, completing mental health assessments on ages 0-5, improving children's behavior and improving parent-child relationships, teaching social skills, and working with couples and families.

Do you feel like you have burned bridges or have been cut out of the lives of those you love the most? Maybe you are feeling lost, confused, and lonely. Living with addiction puts us under unusual stress. We take on role of caregiving, the addict, the person who is blamed, and the other who is working to be the hero. These roles are results of a loss of control and hurt all because you care. That you are here.

Welcome! Congratulations on making it this far in your search for a better life! The information below is provided to help you decide whether you want to work with me.

I am a Licensed Psychologist (LP) in Minnesota and a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in North Dakota. I have two locations - one in Moorhead, MN and the other in Fargo, ND. My education and professional background are quite diverse and include knowledge, skills, and experience in the areas of medicine, education, counseling, psychological interventions and testing/evaluations. I specialize in anxiety disorders, mood disorders, obsessive compulsive disorders and personality disorders. Disclaimer: I am able to provide psychological testing w/ supervision in ND and w/out in MN. I will begin accepting direct pay clients

I have years of personal experience in the addictions arena and rich life experiences to draw from to help clients on their journey, whatever that may be. My theoretical orientation is an eclectic approach; I believe each individual is unique and requires a distinct path to match their treatment goals.

I am so glad that you are here. Walking alongside clients as they navigate the challenges and difficulties of life is something I view as a true privilege. I specialize in working with children and adolescents but see all ages. I work with clients from a trauma informed cognitive behavioral therapy approach. My goal is to provide my clients with tools and skills they can use to improve their symptoms in an empowering and active way.

I am a clinically certified trauma professional as well as an LPCC and an LADC. I am able to help clients recognize and develop coping skills to help them manage their mental health symptoms and their chemical dependency issues. I am able to help clients recognize where their possible trauma has settled within their body. I assist clients in developing awareness of their minds and body and become more mindful of their whole sense of self. No one wants to suffer and if they are, I am able to help them identify what is causing their suffering and work through it or provide them with the tools to do so once they are on their own.

Choosing to seek therapy is one of the bravest actions you can take in your life. That’s why you must find a provider you connect with and trust. I have worked with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, attachment issues, grief/loss, PTSD, low self-esteem, mood disorders, and relationship issues.

I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma or verbal, emotional, physical or sexual abuse in their families or close relationships. Particularly when abuse happens earlier in life or over a long period, those suffering may develop various symptoms including depression, anxiety, low self esteem, self harm, substance use, and anger issues. I view symptoms as ways of coping that have helped you survive so far. We collaborate in therapy to help you find new ways to relate to yourself and others, and create a more meaningful and satisfying life, however that might look for you.

An ideal client would be someone who has possibly done some therapy work in the past, and still feels stuck in the area of relationships, addictions, trauma, grief or loss or someone who has never been to therapy previously. There are many places to get stuck in life, I find it interesting to find ways out of that place.
