Therapists in Minneapolis, MN

As a clinical psychologist, I have seen some arrive to therapy to seek a deeper understanding of their lives, while others hope to navigate painful threads in their relationships and inner worlds. Above all, people come to experience some form of relief, growth, or change. My approach is interactive, strength-based, and tailored to each person’s uniqueness. With my years of clinical experience and training, paired with my values of warmth, humility, creativity, and humor, I will guide us through a compassionate exploration of yourself and your relationships so that you can live a fuller and more enriching life.

Therapy provides a safe space for exploring challenges, developing strengths, gaining coping skills and growing to a better understanding of ourselves. We can share and process our experiences, emotions, beliefs and thoughts without fear of judgment. Therapy is a team relationship, we work together. My goal is to be your teammate, cheerleader, sounding board, empathetic confidant, and guide. As the therapist, I am there with some humor, support, curiosity, compassion, and understanding. I want to empower you so you can regain confidence in your resilience. Be yourself, you matter! You are worthy to get your needs met.

I believe we are created for a life of joy and fulfillment. However, our experiences can adversely impact our ability to experience this. While at times, friends and family can offer enough support, there are moments when the help of a professional is needed. Whether it be depression or anxiety or more complex issues like trauma and ADHD, a therapist can be a trusted companion on your healing journey. As a therapist, I offer a listening ear free of judgment. I use my training and life experience to help guide you in a process of healing and growth that brings mindfulness and grounding to your every day life.

Seeking out help can be a difficult decision. You want a therapist you feel comfortable with and can trust with your story. My approach to therapy is compassionate, empathetic, kind, and collaborative. My goal is for clients to feel safe, supported, heard, and understood. I work alongside you as you develop insight into your experiences. This insight can lead to feeling empowered to implement changes in your life. I believe that the therapeutic process of change includes the following: an understanding of feelings and behaviors, developing healthy coping skills, feeling connected to others, and maintaining balance and moderation in life.

My commitment is to help you make positive life changes. There are times when we are faced with obstacles and difficulties that interfere with growth and development, preventing us from achieving goals and aspirations, and diminishing our happiness and wellbeing. Psychotherapy provides a safe, nonjudgmental setting to discover solutions to challenges. With the powerful tools of communication and insight, I will help you identify counterproductive patterns and habits preventing you from living an optimal life. Together we will recognize and build upon your strengths and skills, develop new resources and strategies, and discover beneficial, healing ways of approaching your life.

Congratulations on taking the first step toward improved mental health and wellbeing! Reaching out for mental health support can feel overwhelming. My approach is informal and laidback. I use humor in sessions. My first goal is to put your mind at ease as you orient to the therapeutic process. I feel honored to come alongside clients as they work towards healing.

Living with, and adjusting to, a life with chronic pain, autoimmune disease, chronic health conditions and disability, can be complicated. Even the inevitable process of aging, comes with its adjustment challenges. We will work together to build new coping strategies. I am familiar with the myriad of feelings that can result from a diagnosis; feelings such as anger, isolation, powerlessness and betrayal. I will help you challenge thoughts that are not helpful and develop new ways to think about issues and find solutions.

As a therapist, my primary goal is to create a warm and inviting space where you feel safe to explore your emotions at your own pace. I believe that healing happens best when it's guided by empathy, understanding, and a genuine connection. In our sessions together, I'll be there to listen without judgment, offering support and guidance as we navigate your journey towards personal growth and transformation. I understand that each individual's path to healing is unique, and I'm committed to meeting you where you are on that journey.

Getting help from a therapist can be a difficult step -- finding someone you can relate to, who understands, and who provides help in a straightforward, positive way is so important. I am warm, nurturing, and direct. I strongly believe in the importance of our relationship: I help you to establish goals, and we work together toward achieving these goals. I provide practical advice and assistance in handling the issues of daily life, and with addressing and healing from the struggle and pain of the past.

It's important to me to individualize care to best fit your needs and address the goals that are most important to you. Having trouble knowing what your goals are? There is no such thing as a problem without a goal, so if you are facing problems in your life it's likely because there are feelings, and experiences you want in your life. The more in touch we become with our wants, needs and values, the more satisfaction we can get from our lives.

Walk Talk Therapy is just like it sounds-we are outdoors walking side by side during therapy instead of sitting inside an office. Walk Talk Therapy is a more relaxed environment than the counseling office. Walking while sharing your struggles and life situations can also be meditative. Research has consistently shown that exercise can significantly impact anxiety and stress while improving overall mood. I work with teens, adults, couples and families. If you're feeling stuck and disconnected from others, you have trouble sitting still or you want a new perspective, I welcome your email or phone call.

Relationships are hard! But you are not alone. By simply taking a step toward finding a therapist, you are moving closer to your goal of a more fulfilling relationship.

Even the most well-adjusted of us encounter situations or experiences that require professional support. Sometimes the natural aging process or a personal crisis brings us to a place of seeking guidance. I consider it my unique privilege and honor to be part of my client's journey on their path to encountering their whole self. My therapeutic approach is founded in an existential understanding of the human condition.

Currently not accepting new clients. My approach to therapy is person-centered, collaborative and dynamic. I see it as my role to help you pause and reflect, and challenge the schemas that may be keeping you stuck in undesired patterns of behavior. While therapy is serious work, it’s also important to laugh at the absurd moments and try to enjoy the journey as we walk it together. If you're struggling with relationships, feeling unheard or confused, reeling from a traumatic event or history, or experiencing a loss, we can work through these issues at your pace.

***Not taking new clients at this time*** Taking a step towards healing can be difficult. I hope to make this process a bit easier for you. Whether you are coming to therapy for the first time, currently in crisis, need help for something specific that has recently happened, or just value having space to talk through what is on your mind, my intention is to create a safe space for you to do so. Together, we will develop a curiosity about how to effectively make positive changes to assist you in decreasing your current distress and living a more fulfilling life.
