Therapists in Afton, MN

I believe that all people have within them the capacity for healing and that courage and strength are discovered when people are allowed the space to express and release their emotional baggage. I believe that it is vital that I provide that space for each and every client. I hold a Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology and years of experience assisting children, adolescents and families improve their individual and family functioning.

At NorthStar Counseling Center, we understand everyone has internal and relationship struggles at times. We have a broad range of experience working with adolescents dealing with emotional or behavioral difficulties and with adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, life cycle transitions, and trauma. We also provide counseling for relationship issues between parents and children, couples, families experiencing divorce, and blended families. Whatever challenges you or your loved ones might be facing, we're here to help you through them.

I've worked with individuals & families via CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing)/trauma focused therapy, family systems therapy, & play therapy for a variety of issues such as MH & addiction since 1998. I adjust/integrate therapeutic modalities holistically based on needs. I am respectful, laid back and humorous during tough work. I'm supportive & I encourage/challenge you to grow. It is difficult to change while health & wellness may require changes. I may use “tough love” while I am understanding and collaborative. Recovery/health requires action, growth, maturity, & accountability.

Ellie’s therapists goal is to help people have access to a coach, teacher, therapist, confidant, counselor, and most of all person to share anything from your daily blunders to deepest secrets! If it's happening in your life, we provide judgement free counseling to help handle it head on, as a team! There is a positive vibe, an intuitive conscious and we place a special focus on engaging the whole family. We like to have fun, share new skills for stress management, and solve problems, while making sure individuals and families feel supported and safe while making change!

Megan’s ideal client is a child, adolescent, partners, or parent(s) seeking understanding, meaning, and healing in their life and in their relationships. Often, these are clients that have already begun their journey; they’ve read books, taken quizzes, or have completed a workbook and yet, it’s still not working. The ideal client is ready to try something different to reach their potential. Honoring our humanity and the world we live in, I utilize an umbrella approach that begins with a Trauma-Informed and Attachment Lens. Under the umbrella, are approaches used to meet the client where they are at and enable new skills to develop.
