I am good at identifying hidden strengths... strengths you may discount due to self-criticism and emotional pain. We can work together to help you love yourself so that you may be able to fully experience the love of others, accomplish the things you hope to accomplish, and gain a more positive perspective on your life.

Welcome to Through the Woods Counseling! I am a feminist therapist licensed in the state of Minnesota to treat co-occurring disorders - that’s just a way of saying I’m trained in working with folks that struggle with more than one issue at a time. Think things like anxiety and alcohol abuse, trauma and depression, stress management and ADHD, and so on… I believe mental health diagnoses can be helpful in giving us a starting point for evidence based ways to improve our mental wellness, but they are also labels rooted in and created by classically oppressive systems, so diagnosis is not a primary focus of sessions.

I am passionate about working with clients who want to stop dieting and break the disordered eating cycle. As a certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, I help adults learn to feel at peace around food and heal from negative body image. I operate from a Health at Every Size and multicultural lens to help you feel safe in your body, mind, and heart in the present moment. You have the internal knowing of yourself. I hope that during our work together I can help you feel safe in your body, find acceptance, and feel empowered with skills to live with grace, joy, and confidence.

I believe in encouraging clients to find their inner strength, resilience, and confidence. My approach to therapy includes offering hope and the skills to overcome struggles, no matter how difficult they might seem. Engaging in therapy will work to develop your own strengths and allow you to feel more comfortable in your own skin, leading to a greater sense of vitality and peace of mind. When you are ready to open yourself to these changes, don't wait. Call me today. I currently have openings in my schedule for day appointments and can get an appointment setup quickly.

Oftentimes, coming into therapy can feel daunting, intimidating, and can bring up a lot of uncertainty. Having this ambivalence is normal, and starting with the first therapy session, Jason aims to help clients feel at ease. Jason completed his Masters in Clinical Social Work degree from St. Catherine’s University in 2021 and is a Licensed Graduate Social Worker (LGSW), who has over ten years working in the helping profession. His experience ranges from working as an Associate Director in a treatment center for adults struggling with substance use disorders, to individual and group therapy for youth.

I am a bilingual, bicultural, second-generation Chicana with over ten years of experience working with diverse individuals, families, and communities. I provide individual therapy to adults 18+ and family therapy to adult children and their parents/relatives. I focus my practice on Black, Indigenous & People of Color (BIPOC). I am particularly interested in working with children of immigrants, immigrants, and members of the fat and LGBTQ+ communities. As a cis woman, I am committed to creating a safe therapeutic space for this community, especially Queer & Trans Black, Indigenous & People of Color (QTBIPOC).

Hey there, my name is Alyssa and I use she/they pronouns. I am a queer, neurodivergent marriage and family therapy intern. While my specialty is with couples, families, and groups, I also love working with individuals. I connect with clients through humor, playfulness, and art-making, which I believe can help work through challenges that life can throw at us. In my opinion, art therapy is not about making profound art but is a tool to help process feelings and discover something new.

I specialize in providing individual, couples and family therapy to young and emerging adults (18-35+ years old), though I work with adults along the age spectrum (18+). My work focuses on anxiety and stress management, communication skills, personal identity, relationship building, sexuality, life transitions, traumatic experiences, and goal setting. I bring in an understanding of the somatic (body based) experience and the relationship between the mind and body in our health and healing. I am a gender affirming, sex /sexuality positive, body positive provider who uses a variety of client centered approaches in my work.

Seeking out therapy can be an overwhelming step to take and I am so glad you are here! I strive to meet individual adults and couples with compassionate curiosity in an effort to address concerns such as those that come with anxiety, depression, life transitions, relational challenges, career exploration/transition, aging, and grief.

Welcome! I’m Elliot, a licensed therapist and owner of Inner Space Therapy, LLC (www.innerspacetherapyllc.com). I work primarily with young adults and adults with concerns related to anxiety, stress, self-esteem, relationships, sexuality/gender, disordered eating, substance use, spirituality, and existential concerns. I have a fondness for working with LGBTQIA+ and neurodiverse folks, and enjoy exploring how our early relational experiences shape the way we show up with ourselves and others. I infuse my client interactions with compassion, empathy, and humor, while supporting clients as they work towards their goals.

Current Openings. I provide a place of welcome, free from judgment, so clients are safe to explore deep feelings and desires for change and healing. I help clients clarify their values and remember/discover what they hold most dear in life so they can experience whole-hearted living. I support clients as they build their sense of self and learn to use their voice to speak their truth. My clients may be working through the repair of a significant relationship or grieving the loss of one. They may be feeling the weight of depression, anxiety, or be seeking a deeper understanding of themselves. I am here to support this work.

I specialize in working with adults, young adults, college students, and parents/caregivers who want to feel less anxious, less overwhelmed, and more present in their lives. Many of my clients are facing major life transitions, feeling held back by old patterns, or wanting to explore different parts of themselves. And many of the parents I work with are struggling to be the parents they can or want to be. Together, we'll address your struggles with your partner(s), friends, or family members.

As your therapist, I am interested in accompanying you on the exploration of your inner world. I believe self-acceptance & self-compassion are key to our liberation, and there are few places you can go that I can't follow. Our work together will include 1. Getting to know the different parts of you, including those parts that most of us tend to reject and/or repress 2. Examining and deconstructing cultural messages you may have received growing up around sexuality, gender, vulnerability, & intimacy 3. Working to reveal the underbelly of shame by allowing it to transform into your greatest strength.

I have immediate openings for both in-person and Telehealth appointments! I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and young adults on managing mental health symptoms. I work with clients on learning therapeutic devices such as coping skills, symptom management, emotion identification, cognitive restructuring, and self-care.

Being a human is not easy. The good news is that we don't have to navigate it alone. Psychotherapy is a partnership that can support and empower you through difficult experiences, find hope, and create a greater sense of meaning and purpose in your life.
