Welcome to a space where embracing your present emotional experiences leads to profound personal growth and transformation. I believe neglecting these emotions can leave us feeling unseen, insecure, and alone. My goal is to create a safe environment where you can explore these feelings with intention. With an MA in Counseling Psychology from the University of St. Thomas, my clinical interests span men's issues, career concerns, grief and loss, self-esteem, depression, relationships, anxiety, boundaries, sexuality, and trauma. I’m interested in supporting neurodiverse clients

As individuals, we all bring with us a multitude of unique experiences. These experiences, along with our relationships, deeply impact our perspectives and modes of operating in the world. Sometimes, this creates a strong foundation for us to grow from while, at other times, we may need some help in navigating all of the twists and turns that life brings our way. In therapy, I seek to provide a warm, caring space where positive change and growth can occur.

***Not taking new clients at this time*** Taking a step towards healing can be difficult. I hope to make this process a bit easier for you. Whether you are coming to therapy for the first time, currently in crisis, need help for something specific that has recently happened, or just value having space to talk through what is on your mind, my intention is to create a safe space for you to do so. Together, we will develop a curiosity about how to effectively make positive changes to assist you in decreasing your current distress and living a more fulfilling life.

My approach to therapy is to honor where you’ve been, while helping you move toward growth that starts with your present conditions and perspectives. We often feel like silencing what troubles us is less painful– I join with clients to access this part of ourselves gently and with great care. I see the therapeutic relationship as a place to practice new dynamics and change past patterns of behavior that no longer serve us. Essential to my philosophy is that individuals are impacted by larger, systemic forces.

Hello. I have always desired to understand feelings, behavior and the human mind; always been driven toward solving the questions that start with why. I would deem it a privilege to take the time with someone to answer how they can move forward from their situation and how they can deal with whatever hand life has dealt them, as well as being able to diagnose any conditions before initiating treatment. My hope for all clients is to get them to a place where therapy is a choice or no longer needing therapy to achieve their goals in life.

Accepting new clients as of June 2024 - You have a vague idea of why you’re unhappy – you’re a smart person, after all, unless it involves anything to do with emotions or relationships. You're introspective and know your patterns well. Yet no matter how hard you try to change things, you haven't been able to feel different on your own. Your emotions seem to work differently than other people's, impossible to control or manage. What you're doing isn't working, and you feel stuck. Sometimes it sucks to be aware of how bad you feel - what's the point of self-awareness if you don't know what to do with it?

As an ADHD brain myself, I have a special interest in working with individuals or couples to address the personal and/or relational challenges of ADHD; we will deconstruct shame and self-worth stemming from ADHD, address communication difficulties, and increase overall understanding of how ADHD impacts all aspects of our lives.

Life can be wonderful, exciting and full of joy! However, sometimes the continued stress and challenges of today's world have made it difficult for individuals and couples to find time to be loving, compassionate, and kind to themselves and others. Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and exhausted. They are looking for support as they re-engage in loving themselves and growing their capacity for self-compassion and care. Many individuals I see are hoping to relieve and manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and apathy. I help guide clients as they reflect and identify areas for growth and change.

I am a current master’s level Clinical Social Work Intern. I provide a safe welcoming space for all adults to explore, express and deepen their understanding of who they are and what it means to be their authentic self. I understand the parallels of intersectionality and the confides of navigating the world when all feels lost. I offer a holistic approach to therapy with techniques such as guided imagery, mindfulness, humor, empathy to help you connect deeper with yourself. For me therapy is about building a relationship with others to help you understand yourself on a deeper level.

I’m Eric Murtha, an integrative psychotherapist, licensed to practice in Minnesota. During my years in practice, I have developed an understanding and appreciation of the uniqueness of each individual and family that I have helped. I believe that we all develop patterns regarding how we think, deal with emotions, and relate to the people in our lives. Often these patterns have served us in the past. However, during times of stress, loss, or traumatic experience, these patterns may be unhelpful, and we can feel stuck. This is when therapy can make a big difference in feeling better and help us live more effectively.

How we interact with ourselves and others is result of our own early childhood experiences, traumas, and attachment. As we get older we hold onto these psychological foundations and patterns. These often drive maladaptive behaviors, relationship distress, anxiety, and overall dissatisfaction.

Why do you seem to grow irritable and frustrated with other people? Is there something that keeps you from being able to communicate with your partner? Something that keeps you from doing well at work? Why is it so hard to talk to that family member, to trust other people--to trust even your own judgment? You know just what you want to do in life (growth, stability, security, find a supportive romantic relationship), yet, so many of your goals have never been realized.
