Sleep or Insomnia Therapists in Minneapolis, MN

Traumatic experiences, relationship problems, and painful emotions can keep us from living the lives we want to live. I will help you develop techniques to break this vicious cycle and reconnect with what matters. I have specialized training in evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness. My goal is to help you make changes that increase the quality of your life within an affirming environment with respect to sexuality, gender identity, religion, race, and all aspects of culture.

Many people struggle with symptoms of depression, anxiety or insomnia. Others have difficulty in relationships, are dissatisfied with work or face serious health challenges. And many others struggle to adapt to life changes, or simply feel discouraged or unhappy. I work collaboratively with my clients to target the issues most challenging to them and use evidence-based approaches to improve those problems. I believe that developing a strong relationship with my clients provides the essential base from which sustainable change can be achieved. I am PsyPact certified and can practice telepsychology in those states.

I am a clinical psychologist specializing in health and performance psychology, including concerns related to performance, sleep, & injury. My approach is driven by evidence-based treatments including cognitive behavioral and related modalities (e.g., mindfulness-based therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, motivational interviewing.)

I am passionate about helping people find and build on their inner strengths and learn new skills in order to feel more at ease emotionally and create a more satisfying life. I listen deeply to help people explore their strengths and also obstacles to creating the life they want. I enjoy helping people with a variety of problems including anxiety, depressed mood, relationship struggles, insomnia, and health problems including Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

As a parent of a struggling teenage son, you want to do whatever you can to help get your teen on the right path. I help struggling teenage guys discover their identity, realize their strengths, and use those strengths to catapult into adulthood with a sense of competence and confidence. Adolescence is an exciting time where teens form their unique identity, build meaningful social connections, and learn to think in an innovative way. Ironically, what makes adolescence so exciting can also make it enormously stressful for both teens and their caretakers.

I have worked with kids, teens, and young adults who are experiencing persistent pain and health conditions that disrupt their life for the past 11 years. I help people get back to what they want to be doing by teaching people how to overcome distressing physical symptoms, establish healthy routines (even sleep!), and teaching effective stress management. I tailor psychological science to you using humor, sarcasm, and direct, no-nonsense conversation.

*Please email about availability* Therapy is not surgery; you don't go to sleep and wake up with all of your problems solved. The sweat and strain and heavy lifting are mostly yours. But with this, however, you can feel more satisfied with therapy when actively involved in the sessions. It is my role to work with your motivation & continue to foster this growth towards positive change. I operate from a person-centered approach, which emphasizes being genuine, providing unconditional positive regard, and empathic understanding in the efforts to foster our therapeutic connection to enhance this emotional & powerful relationship.

I work with clients aged 14 and older. My practice addresses challenges in interpersonal relationships, anxiety, mood disorders, and sleep issues. The services I offer include individual psychotherapy, couples counseling, and cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia. For an overview of my practice, please visit my website via the link on this page.

Often a question asked prior to counseling is, am I thriving or simply surviving? Individuals question their life path and need help to figure out where to start exploring. We work together to identify strengths, areas of growth, and both are used to help cultivate a fulfilling life experience. Clients may feel there is a mismatch between their head and hearts so we also work to connect them which in-turn causes less uncertainty and confusion in life choices.

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.

Together, we'll build coping skills, discover your strengths, and foster lasting transformation.

The shame of not being in control of your life can feel so isolating and anxiety provoking. And the thought of talking about it with someone else can feel paralyzing at times. How did I get here? Why can't I fix this on my own? Why do I keep going back? What is wrong with me? Do I have a drinking problem? Why can't I sleep? Do I need to quit or can I just cut back? Why is my relationship so difficult? These nagging thoughts could go on and on.

Imagine yourself letting go of fears, gaining power, confidence and happiness, releasing sadness and anxiety, losing weight, quitting tobacco, alcohol or other addictions, ending insomnia....in other words, becoming the successful, happy and fulfilled person you desire and deserve to be! Hypnotherapy utilizes the power of your subconscious mind, which is a major portion of your total mind, to create the positive habits and outlook that you consciously want but may have eluded you. Results can be fast and permanent.

I'm a psychologist who makes house calls and, therefore, assist people with a wide variety of problematic situations. I have 34 years in the field of mental health counseling and consulting. My practice consists of Telehealth & (limited) home visits during the afternoons and evenings, and consulting in the community in institutional settings. My 4 decades in mental health have taught me the importance of critical lifestyle practices and habits that make or break our mental health, and our overall well being. These include circadian health, sleep hygiene, and a healthy relationship with food, movement, and good ol' Mother Nature.

I work with individuals who are impacted by anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. My treatment approach focuses on improving confidence and personal resilience while reducing emotional distress. I also provide counseling for couples and families who are working through relational challenges and life-cycle transitions.I work from a holistic perspective, and my approach is goal driven and solution-focused. Together we identify your goals and ideal outcomes and work through challenges and unhelpful patterns to achieve success. I use accountability coaching to help you achieve your goals and step into the next chapter of life.

I enjoy building therapeutic relationships and promoting positive changes in people's lives. My clients often struggle with depression, anxiety, OCD, phobias, relationship issues, sleep problems, self esteem and confidence. I am especially interested in working with gay identified men and people struggling with phobias or OCD, but love working with all sorts of folks and issues. Working collaboratively with clients, I try to help them find alternative ways of dealing with life's challenges. I believe therapy helps people become more authentic and well balanced version of themselves and not be controlled by anxiety or depression.
