Find a Therapist in White Bear Lake, Minnesota.

The thought of going to therapy can be intimidating. We try to take the intimidation and mystery out of the counseling process with a straightforward, yet kind approach, whether we are working with individuals, couples, or families. The biggest predictor of success in therapy is the connection with the therapist. No one can be a good fit for everyone. Consider your first visit to be an audition for the therapist to see if it feels right for you. We have extensive experience working on issues of anxiety, depression, life transitions, and trauma, to name a few. We offer online counseling, delivered to you wherever you are. You can self-schedule at mnonlinecounseling.com.

Psychotherapy helps individuals to understand more of the underlying reasons, contributors and factors of life struggles. People are not the same, so every therapist and treatment plan is not the same! I work with my clients on those areas and goals they feel they want to work on, collaborating with my clients on what feels right for them and what direction they want to go. I am not the "knower of all," as time and time again it is shown YOU are the expert of YOUR life!

My approach to psychotherapy is to collaborate with my clients. My first goal is to understand your values, viewpoints, what you want and what you don't want. Most of us have not really put these concepts into words yet, so beginning right away, this can be very helpful. The next step is to identify the barriers in front of us. These are always present when we feel 'stuck', and they can be external or internal. Find out what is keeping you from your goals and dreams, and start living your best life!

Therapy can help. The ability to talk about your thoughts and feelings with a non-judgmental, trained professional can, in itself, be beneficial. In addition, our therapists are trained in a number of therapeutic orientations. We offer help with grief, trauma, depression, anxiety, obsessive thoughts, transitions, and divorce, just to name a few. We also offer therapy for relationship and family issues, parenting, and play therapy for children. Your relationship with your therapist is critical to success in therapy.

My approach to therapy is not a quick fix or a band-aid approach. It is not self-help advice or executive coaching. It is a process of research-proven, emotional surgery that gets at the heart of your issues and heals them at their source. If you’re like many of my clients, you’ve conquered in the workplace and found success. And yet, you’re not at peace with your life. Whether it’s stress, trauma, addiction, strained relationships, or a lack of motivation, something needs to change. Often, my role is to help successful men get their hearts back. I can help you rediscover your purpose, reconnect with what matters, heal your insecurities, improve your relationships, and leave a legacy.

If you are like many victims of Narcissistic Abuse, you might find yourself scared and hesitant to reach out to a therapist. Perhaps you are worried that someone like me might tell you that you truly are the problem. Or, maybe you have had negative experiences and felt dismissed, minimized and unseen in your experiences. I want you to know that I believe you. There is a way forward through all of this pain. I have helped others in similar situations and I would love to be of service to you. I invite you to snoop my website. You are welcome to email me or if you are feeling ready, directly schedule our first appointment via the schedule link.
