Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Minneapolis, MN

I welcome the unfiltered essence of You. I enjoy working with couples, polycules, and families. As an immigrant, I am passionate about issues regarding ambiguous loss and intergenerational trauma. I practice through a non-pathologizing lens that respects the social and environmental context of your experience. Using Narrative, Cognitive Behavioral, and Attachment theories, I work collaboratively with your past and explore how it informs your present. Together, we can take inventory of ideologies you want to keep, and shed those that were passed down to you without your consent.

Life transitions, particularly those related to anxiety, trauma, divorce, and navigating co-parenting can be difficult. Maybe you don’t currently have the coping skills to manage what can be a trying and traumatizing time. Challenges like navigating young adulthood, managing anxiety, maintaining a healthy relationship, or choosing to end a relationship can be difficult and riddled with uncertainty. I can personally recall how helpful and reassuring it was to have someone in my life help me by providing direct feedback and compassionate support as I navigated these challenges.

Real change comes from understanding why our own impulses and behaviors hold us back from experiencing our true potential and discovering the skills to create the change we seek. I believe in a holistic, person-centered approach to therapy that helps people find the answers that were inside them all along. As a therapist, I am intuitive and compassionate, yet direct, and employ a mix of modalities, including traditional psychotherapy, cognitive therapy and mindfulness techniques.

The decision to seek therapy is positive and courageous! It is important to find the right therapist to help you with your problems. I take an integrative and collaborative approach to therapy which is client centered and goal driven. I create a safe and non-judgmental space where we work together to solve problems, overcome obstacles, and facilitate personal and relational growth. I assess the biological, psychological and social aspects of a person, couple or family, using a balance of approaches that are attachment based and include insight-oriented and cognitive behavior therapies to treat depression/anxiety, grief, trauma, etc.

Imagine you work up the courage to go and talk to someone about all the things that that have been weighing heavy on you. But you find yourself having to do more work explaining your culture, your community, your beliefs, your womanhood…the convergence of all the above… and then hope they get YOU. I’m sure you didnt have to imagine too hard because this is the reality of so many, including myself. You deserve understanding and expert skill to support you through the highs, lows and sometimes chronic nature of life.
