Waitlist. I believe that we are all story tellers of our own lives. The story evolves based on our past experiences, which in turn, may be how we view the world and our place in it. A few key ingredients people need to thrive are safety, significance and a sense of belonging. We need to be seen and heard. I offer a space that is safe for that to happen.

Hello, I am Madison Gruenewald and I am a licensed therapist in the state of Minnesota. I have 9 years experience working in outpatient mental health/substance use disorder treatment, helping clients work through relationship issues, mood management, value exploration, recovery from addiction and codependency, etc. My experience includes working with individuals, groups and families and have worked with both adolescents and adults. My passion is working collaboratively alongside my clients as they navigate through their healing and create a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Sometimes in life we can feel like we have no control over what is happening, the paths our relationships are taking, or what the future might have in store for us. We can get to a place where we are stuck in a continuous cycle of negative thinking, gloomy feelings, and ineffective behaviors. I provide therapy to individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, grief/loss, life transitions, relationship changes/separation, substance use issues, stress management, academic challenges, sports/performance concerns, chronic illness, sexuality/gender identity issues, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia spectrum, and life balance.

As a Licensed Psychologist, my professional approach encourages a person's strengths, inherent resilience, and individual differences that contribute to personal development and meaningfulness. My previous experiences include providing psychotherapy services to a diverse range of individuals, couples, families, and groups in a variety of settings, from college counseling and career assessment centers to community mental health and specialty clinics. I earned both a Master's and Doctorate in Counseling Psychology from the University of Minnesota, and I completed my Pre-doctoral Internship at the University of Michigan and Post-doctoral Fellowship at an eating disorder treatment center.

How is your relationship with stress? Have you reached the point where stress is no longer just a thought, but has evolved into a physical state of discomfort and overall exhaustion? Stress comes to us when we are required to adjust to the competing demands and challenges present in our relationships, families, work, parenting, finances, and health. We all experience stress to varying degrees, and, if left unchecked, we be left feeling restless, overwhelmed, frustrated, and unsure about the future.

Navigating interpersonal relationships to enhance wellbeing and a sense of tranquility need not be a solitary endeavor. The world can feel chaotic; our lives need not mirror this tumult. Feelings of irritation, sadness, fear, and emptiness are normal in times of change and uncertainty. When these feelings become overpowering or they are negatively impacting your life: change is critical. I believe exploring your ideal personal philosophy is critical to (re) establish life balance.

I focus on attunement, naming my practice Modern Attunement to align with my belief that intimacy and growth grow from a place from being attuned to our gut instinct, the people that we share our life with.

Immediate availability. You've carried the weight of your struggles alone for far too long. The mere thought of reaching out for help, expressing your needs, and acknowledging your worth as a person feels like an insurmountable hurdle! Anxiety and depression seem to have a firm grip, distorting your perspective. Navigating through emotions has become a labyrinth, and anger simmers beneath the surface. The pressures of life have left you seeking effective stress management strategies. Self-esteem feels elusive, and issues related to masculinity and femininity weigh heavily on your shoulders. Perfectionism has crushed self-acceptance.

Are you struggling with anxiety or depression and would like to make changes in your life? Have you been faced with transitions such as relocating, career shift, or relationship struggles? Leaving a partner or community can be painful and isolating. By working together in a supportive environment we can find positive solutions to life's problems. I enjoy providing therapy for clients with anxiety and depression, as well as assisting adults with life transitions such as relationships, career, and relocating. I believe that honesty and a sense of humor create positive relationships.

As a couples therapist, I believe we all long for connection. It is primal and in our DNA. However, in order to feel a connection, we need to feel a sense of safety first. I am passionate about working with couples who are experiencing a lack of connection and are seeking help with hopes of increasing the effectiveness of their communication, boundaries, and connection. Another passion of mine is helping couples navigate family conflicts. Family conflicts are not easy and they tend to disrupt the whole family system. I am currently accepting new clients for couples or family therapy. I offer sliding scale fees for couples as well.
