Therapists in Minnesota

Looking for a genuine and down-to-earth therapist to offer professional mental health services and support as you walk on your journey into the great unknown of life? I can be there as you combat life's challenges with issues such as Stress, Depression, Anxiety, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Addiction Recovery, Parenting and any emotional/behavioral concerns. With 18 years of experience as a counselor I can help you identify the underlying issues that are contributing to the strife in your life while empowering you to identify the strengths that will help you reach your highest potential.

I provide therapy through a strengths-based, trauma-focused lens, and view each person as a resilient individual system capable of developing agency of their lived story and gaining mastery of their whole self. My clients include individuals and families living with challenges complicated by mental illness, emotional and behavioral disorders, trauma and family violence. My therapy services and community provider trainings are designed to provide an holistic and trauma-informed, culturally-attuned approach to understanding and healing from the abuse and trauma affecting individuals, relationships, families and systems.

Apricity Counseling and Wellness Center is an outpatient therapy clinic located in Eagan, MN that takes a trauma informed and holistic approach to mental health and wellness. We offer individual, couples, family, and group therapy in addition to other health and wellness services.

There is hope after trauma. MEND Therapy is unique in the twin cities in that we are an in-house, all-inclusive collaboration of trauma-informed body workers and psychotherapists. The research is clear: trauma lives in the body, not just the mind. We utilize the cutting edge, most effective and always research-based methods for treating trauma. Because trauma is not just in your head and talk therapy isn't enough.

In our sessions you get to focus on creating happiness and satisfaction. You deserve to feel free to be yourself, love who you are, and create the life you want. I provide a safe space that welcomes everyone and all conversations. I have worked with a variety of people focusing on trauma, purpose, anxiety, depression, stress, empowerment, sexuality, gender, interpersonal skills, mood swings, psychosis, suicide ideation, communication, attachment and more. I also create a safe space for, but not limited to, people who are part of the LGBTQIA2S+, Kink, Queer, and Non-monogamous communities.

We know how important it is to have options when you decide to reach out for support. As a group of clinicians invested in your wellbeing, we provide individual and group counseling to adults, children (ages 4+), families, and couples. Because we cannot determine when life stressors or increasing mental health concerns will occur, you may be able to be seen the same day of your call.

When meeting clients I begin with the question of "What happened to you" rather than "What is wrong with you." When I get to watch and bear witness as an individual or family grows and is able to heal it humbles me! I like to walk along side those I work with in helping them develop/discover the life and relationships they desire. I also enjoy working with couples in achieving satisfying marriages or relationships. When not at work I enjoy reading, being in nature, spending time with my family, walking my dog and gardening. I also believe in bringing humor into my work as it helps us all remember what in life is good!

I am dedicated to empowering individuals as leaders of their own journeys through a client-centered approach tailored to your unique needs, values, and strengths. My commitment lies in fostering safe, healthy relationships and embodying this within our therapeutic work. Recognizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and soul, I employ a holistic approach while delivering culturally-aware care. Providing a secure and supportive environment allows individuals to embrace their authenticity and progress at their own pace.

Hello and welcome to the beginning of your healing journey! In addition, I am dually licensed in MN and WI and an approved supervisor for LMFT and LPCC. My name is Neko and I joined this field because I believe that life is a journey where invitations to heal, grow and prosper are constantly received!

Throughout our lifetimes, we experience the world, delightful and painful, through our senses. Stress and trauma become stuck in our minds and bodies. A tough protective skin forms that keeps out pain, but also blocks joy. By slowing down and involving our bodies in the work of therapy, the dynamic display of our emotions finds resonance and calming, the mind and body unwind, and insight naturally arises about ourselves, relationships, and experiences. By including body, mind, and spirit, we tend the whole person. By partnering with the natural world, we invite resources that comfort, guide, and inspire us.

Taking the initial step in your healing journey can be challenging, especially when the path ahead is unclear. Maybe you need someone to walk that path with you, and I would be honored to be that person. I am a faith-based psychotherapist who enjoys working with adolescent and adult individuals, couples, and families. Whether you are processing past trauma, navigating current relationships, or ready to learn new skills to be your best self, I am here to help.

Unleash your inner mermaid. Like a mermaid, you were born wondrous and whole, with awe-inspiring potential. Perhaps, like her, trauma hides your power, voice, and sense of magic; tries to cut you off from true self, body, community, and nature’s rhythms; tells oppressive stories that serve to keep you “in your place,” lost, lonely, ashamed, fearful, unfulfilled, or hating your body. The mermaid reclaims her birthright and returns to her community– stronger and more magnificent than ever. You, too, can lay that colonizing fear “am I enough?” in its watery grave, re-discover your voice, step into your wild power, and trust yourself.

I strive to provide a safe, supportive space for you to feel seen and heard. I believe that gaining insight and approaching oneself with compassion allows for healing. While exploring emotions and relational patterns, I integrate information about current neuro-research that helps make sense of different reactions and/or stuck patterns. Together, we will work through unresolved issues, process them, and begin to move forward.

We hold trauma, grief, loss, and painful memories in our minds and bodies. If these issues aren't healed, they come out in painful and often destructive ways: Depression, anxiety, relationship issues, anger, struggles with parenting, substance abuse, isolation, fear, etc. People often feel "stuck" in these issues and are caught in cycles that are difficult to break free. These destructive and painful cycles can be broken and you can thrive personally and in your relationships. I create a welcoming environment where all feel safe to experience healing and transformational change. Each session is unique to you.

Fit is an important factor in therapy. Why should you trust anyone to accompany you into the dark places if you're not allowed to see who they are? I work well with teenagers and adults who have hit roadblocks in other therapies. If you have suspected something maintains your suffering, or your child's, that remains hidden I might be a valuable therapeutic guide. I offer warmth, humor, and sharp analysis of the big picture as well as the details to help you identify what's holding you back and how to move forward differently in a clear, practicable way.

With compassion and an open heart and mind, I invite you on a journey of self-discovery and healing. Using a holistic approach to wellness, we will assess all areas of your life - mind, body, heart, spirit - and determine if these feel integrated and fulfilling and reflect your true nature. While exploring, honoring, and releasing patterns that no longer serve and treating unresolved trauma, you will naturally reconnect with your true self and life will begin to unfold in the most beautiful ways.

I believe great therapy goes beyond symptom reduction. I want to see my clients thrive. In our work together, we will unpack and define your emotional pain points, understand how those pain points affect your daily life and relationships, and develop strengths-based strategies to overcome your emotional wounds in order to live a life rooted in your values. I want all of my clients to feel empowered with concrete therapeutic tools and supported by our work together as they heal and face the challenges in their lives.
