Adults Therapists in Minneapolis, MN

Therapy is a creative, collaborative relationship. As an artist and therapist passionate about process, I am here to help you uncover and cultivate the life you want to live. I am not here to fix you; you are not broken. We will work together to find new ways for you to be in relationship with the problems and the joys in your life. If you are ready to step into a curious, process-oriented journey, then I am here to offer a safe, supportive space to do just that. Let’s get curious about how to create more room for pleasure, joy, and connection as well as for the uncomfortable, tender parts of your life.

We all experience times when life becomes overwhelming, leaving us feeling vulnerable and off-centered, sometimes leading to profound depression, grief, anxiety or the use of unhealthy coping strategies. Stressors include major life transitions, relational challenges (conflict, separation/divorce, domestic abuse), parenting or/caregiving responsibilities, health difficulties, social oppression/discrimination, and trauma as a child or adult. No matter how strong you may be, you don't have to go it alone. Everyone struggles from time to time, and many benefit from seeking help from an experienced, highly trained psychotherapist.

I'm a licensed mental health professional, holding an MSW from the University of Northern Iowa (2017) and dual bachelor's degrees in Psychology and Sociology (2014). My treatment approach prioritizes evidence-based methods that emphasize skill development and practical behavioral solutions.

We each have a garden, a precious life, to tend to. Sometimes it is crowded out by weeds, the clear path you initially created is overgrown and beyond your control. Or the soil is severely lacking, there are not enough nutrients coming in and far too much is going out. At other times, darkness overshadows the garden, and you struggle to survive, blossom and grow. Turning toward one’s life, and tending to your garden, is essential to mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. Asking for professional help from a therapist — like hiring a gardener — is a wise and powerful choice you can make for yourself, today.

My intention is to provide a safe, supportive environment within the therapeutic relationship. My philosophy is strengths-based and holistic: I believe people have the capacity for resilience, creativity and resourcefulness. My role is to help my clients get to that place of knowing this for themselves so they can move forward in their lives and thrive. I am trained in mindfulness-based-stress reduction, and I am a Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach who has worked with a wide range of people on stress release, weight, exercise and nutrition. I am also a Licensed Clinical Independent Social Worker.

My therapy style is engaged and proactive. Clients repeatedly tell me they feel safe and accepted in therapy to explore their issues, whatever they happen to be. I ask questions and make frequent observations to help clients (1) increase self-awareness and become more comfortable with themselves and their feelings, (2) to make better choices, (3) toward greater satisfaction in their lives and relationships. My unique history helps me understand and relate to the many struggles clients face, without judgment.

I strive to create a space where individuals feel comfortable and supported. I do this by utilizing a non-judgmental approach, and by allowing individuals to feel heard and validated. I am kind, caring, compassionate, and will work hard to build a strong therapeutic alliance with the individuals that I serve. I am passionate about helping others through their traumatic experiences, and have worked with many different modalities of therapy that include but aren't limited to; CBT, DBT, and Trauma Focused-CBT. I approach all clients and people that I serve with a person-centered, trauma informed, and strengths-based perspective.

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all, but rather it is shaped by your needs and life experiences. Starting therapy can be intimidating and I am here to guide you through your journey of growth. It is my purpose to find what sets everyone apart, helping you discover and develop the tools you have within you.

I welcome you if you are new to therapy or have a history of benefiting from it. I make it a priority that you feel safe to proceed in therapy at a pace that works for you. Life brings us frequent changes and I hope to guide you through these expected and unexpected adjustments while reminding you to Love Yourz. Me encantaría conocerlo/a si nunca ha tenido terapia or si ya tiene experiencia. Para mi, es muy importante que usted se sienta segura y cómoda en nuestra terapia. La vida nos trae muchos cambios y espero guiarlo/a con estos ajustes esperados e inesperados.

My name is Ann L. P. Steely and I am a clinical social worker and owner of Heartland Psychotherapy. I specialize in working with adolescents/adults in individual and family therapy. My focus in therapy is on my relationship with you, understanding what you need as an individual, and using this understanding to help you find insight into how to make the changes you want to make in your life. Psychotherapy is a process of working together towards healing and change. I will help you understand yourself authentically and find greater ease through the exploration of your emotional experience, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships.

At times, life presents us with challenges that seem insurmountable on our own. I am here to help you access your own resilience and self-knowledge. Or, maybe, you are simply in need of someone who can listen, encourage, and help you envision a path forward. My goal is to provide a nonjudgmental space for adults and adolescents to process, heal, and grow as individuals. I have experience working with adults and adolescents from diverse backgrounds, and with individuals facing such challenges as depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, developmental and life stage adjustments, and relational struggles.

Research and experience tells us that effective therapy is predicated on a truly meaningful relationship between client and therapist. I am confident that I can provide a time and space where you will feel understood, accepted, cared for, and appropriately challenged to change. I work primarily with young adults who are struggling with issues such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief and loss, divorce, separated and blended families, life transitions, sexual health and sexual identity, alcohol and chemical abuse issues, conflicted family relationships, attachment issues, and emotion and behavior management.

My name is Nichole and my goal with you is to build a therapeutic relationship to help you work through those times. I believe everyone deserves a safe space to process, reflect, and work through some of life’s hardest moments. Much of my experience comes from working with families across settings, especially those who have experienced foster care, and adoption. I’ve worked with youth, their caregivers, and adults with complex trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, FASD, and many other unique experiences.

With a whole-person approach and a deep commitment to cultural responsiveness, I strive to create a safe and supportive space where individuals and couples can explore their inner worlds, navigate life's challenges, and cultivate meaningful change. As a dedicated psychotherapist, I specialize in providing compassionate and effective therapy to teenagers, adults, and couples. In my practice, I honor the whole person - mind, body, and spirit - integrating evidence-based therapeutic techniques with mindfulness practices, somatic experiencing, and narrative therapy to help my clients tap into their innate resilience and wisdom.

I see therapy as a tool used to facilitate feeling empowered and positively engaged in life. I believe that we all have the capacity to grow, heal and live a life that is joyful, purposeful and fulfilling.

Currently accepting new clients! I offer individual therapy to children, adolescents, families, and adults who are looking to ease symptoms of anxiety and depression, improve relationships and communication, or who simply wish to live a more mindful and connected life. My treatment approach is rooted in the desire to help clients find a deeper understanding of their emotions, patterns of thinking, and other mental processes from a client-centered, strength-based treatment perspective. My goal as a therapist is to encourage each of my clients to develop a deeper awareness to promote positive change in a supportive space.

I have over twenty years of experience as a psychotherapist treating children, individuals and families. I have been intensively trained as a child psychoanalytic psychotherapist, which has given me the basis to understand and to integrate diverse techniques during my practice for the assessment and treatment of people with different disorders. I greatly enjoy working with the Hispanic population and I have a clear understanding and respect of the cultural values and traditions of the community.
