Play Therapy in Minneapolis, MN

Accepting NEW clients for Telehealth and in person! I enjoy working with people of all ages, from early childhood to end of life, helping people work through where they feel stuck, with relationship issues, trauma and abuse, engage in healing, and live life authentically and connectedly. I work with clients from an array of various backgrounds and presenting concerns - including doctors, single parents, homeless people, students, professional athletes, veterans, retirees, inmates, disabled people, homemakers, business people, teachers and so forth.

I provide individual, family, sibling-based and group therapy for children, pre-teens, teens, young adults, and families. I use nature-based interventions and adventure therapy techniques in my practice. I've worked with people ages 5 and up who struggle with anxiety, trauma, depression, behavioral challenges, relational strain, school-related difficulties, identity issues and life transitions.

I am a visually impaired Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am trained and certified in Early Childhood Mental Health and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral therapy. I believe that we are all created for relationships and the current world we live in fosters isolation and individuality. I seek to provide children, families, and adults effective mental health care that teaches them how to heal and recreate healthy relationships.

It’s important to have a space to talk about the most intimate aspects of our lives in a way that is non-judgmental, safe, and compassionate. My hope is to help people of all identities (gender, sexual, and relational) to feel embraced as they are, while working to become the version of themselves they hope to be. My interests include couples therapy, affairs/infidelity, co-parenting, grief work, somatic/trauma work, and family of origin issues. I am also trained in supporting couples and people in non-traditional relationships who are looking for greater intimacy and connection.

I welcome clients from all spheres of life & lived realities. I am currently accepting clients for individual, couples (including poly/non-monogamy), & group therapy. Most of my professional experience has been with communities that are underrepresented, under supported, economically limited, identify as BIPOC, neurodivergent, and/or LGBTQIA+. As a gay nonbinary person, I am especially passionate about working with folks from the queer community.

It is my experience that the fullest, most satisfying healing involves our whole person, mind, body, and spirit. By focusing on patterns of movement in the body as well as thinking, we work together to achieve your goals for therapy. A body based and energetic focus is often a new and effective way for people to resolve issues that only talking about them did not reach. I look for resistance and protective actions that no longer serve a person. I emphasize developing aliveness in the body, feeling joyful, free, and peace.

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.

Now Accepting New Clients!

Hola! ;) My mantra is let go & peace of mind. This may be your first time in therapy. We've all been there. Come as you are, I have a space for you. I’m here to guide you and work at your own pace. Ines is a Latina woman and an adult immigrant who understands challenging circumstances. She visualizes difficult situations as an opportunity for growth.

Life can be hard and sometimes you need someone to walk alongside of you to help you figure things out. I am passionate about providing clients with a safe environment that helps them to find a way through the struggles of life so that they can live their most authentic and fulfilling lives.

Hi, I’m Heidi! I understand that healing is not linear. Sometimes emotions rise over items that you once considered healed, and I’m here to help to move through them at your speed and help you to honor your journey. How you heal is deeply personal, and I’m looking forward to exploring this with you. You are your best healer; I’m here to guide and support you. In my personal time, I enjoy being outdoors, hiking, spending time with my animals, and exploring all that life has to offer.

Brianna places tremendous value on the therapist-client relationship and believes nothing is more important than cultivating a strong, trusting connection with clients. She believes a misconception exists that says advice giving is what is most helpful, but Brianna prefers to offer her clients alternative perspectives and create space for a collaborative approach to explore new ways to overcoming obstacles. Clients can expect a safe, nonjudgmental therapy environment to express themselves and be heard. Her environment is one of active listening, empathy, empowerment, support, collaboration, and humor.

Taking therapy outside into nature allows access to powerful resources to help you address your goals, increase emotional and physical well-being and promote healing and resilience. In this practice my colleagues and I meet outside year-round in the South Minneapolis area, walking along the creek or river, sitting under a favorite pine tree or on a bench by the lake, with the option of telehealth when the weather is unsafe or just too cold. My style is supportive, warm, playful and experiential. We can address attachment difficulties, emotional and behavioral regulation, stress, anxiety, depression, grief and trauma.

I focus my practice on helping others manage their anxieties, enjoy their relationships, and thrive in their daily lives. I am relational in my approach, meaning I believe that how well I understand and connect with you matters, as does knowing how you have connected with others in past and current relationships. I seek to help my clients develop resilience, self-understanding, confidence, and deeper intimacy in their important relationships.

I specialize in LGBTQ+, Trauma (PTSD), Mood Disorders, Borderline Personality Disorder, and living with Chronic Illness.
