Female Therapists in Montgomery, MN

My formal education and clinical training happened later in life. But my experience in youth and individual counseling began over 12 years ago. My position as a mother, grandmother and wife gives me a perspective of over 32 years of life experience and empathy. My natural inclination to simply embrace, enjoy, and accept people without judgment, has prepared and enabled me to open of avenues of connection with a diverse client base. I believe that every client has the skill to heal and just needs some guidance and support. I am experienced in working with Individuals, Family, Couples and teens.

I seek to find connection, building a relationship with you. I will collaborate with you, listening first for understanding, learning about your values, needs and hopes. My goal is to partner and walk along with you. It is your journey, a unique experience we are navigating toward healing, wellness and/or increased awareness. Number one you will feel heard and all interventions are individualized to you (or your child). I look to understand your daily life and interactions with others learning about your life experience, your journey as we set goals together. I am creative, calm, and patient.

Ever feel like your emotions are running the show? Maybe you struggle with intense anger, overwhelming sadness, or crippling anxiety. Perhaps past experiences from your childhood are influencing how you show up in your relationships with friends, family, and partners. You've been in therapy before, and while it sometimes feels helpful to talk to someone, you still feel like life is a constant battle. If this sounds familiar, you're not alone! Many people experience emotional dysregulation and don't find the relief they are looking for in traditional therapy alone. The good news is, there IS hope, and there are more options!

This thing called life keeps people so busy, quick to jump to the next thing and for some, so busy that the stress of it all leaves one frozen-stopped in their tracks. I so enjoy working with whoever you are and as you are when we meet. I prioritize a partnership with who I am working with, identifying client-driven goals focusing on yourself and your relationships and that these goals equip you for long-term contentedness and tools to manage the season you are in.

I have worked in a variety of settings including outpatient mental health, school social work, and child welfare.

An individual’s mental health is fluid and can be affected by many factors including mood, relationships, and life events. In therapy, I meet you wherever you are at in the moment. Sometimes this means figuring out surviving before we can focus on thriving.

Wherever you may be on your mental health journey, you deserve to receive the support you need for your concerns.

In a culture plagued by loneliness, exploitation, and uncertainty, it is understandable to feel that things are not going as well as you'd like them to be. Gentle guidance can help you move toward a solid place even in difficult circumstances. I'm Helen, and I'm a scientist-practitioner focused on root-cause healing. Clients and I collaborate to cultivate security and connection both internally and externally. In our work together, we will gradually clarify, release, and integrate layers of identity and emotional experience; navigate here-and-now problems; and work toward solidifying foundational life structures.
