Chronic Illness Therapists in Saint Louis Park, MN

I am a firm believer that understanding how health concerns and physical symptoms can show up hand in hand with mental health is incredibly valuable. I believe that the better you understand how your body and mind interact, the more ability you will have to manage symptoms. I have been trained to work with trauma, substance abuse, PTSD, chronic illness, family systems, couples, children, groups & individuals. My unique background having worked in medicine also helps in working with individuals with chronic illness. My time in EMS can aid in working with individuals from the military, emergency services & medical personnel.

I specialize in working with individuals ages 15 and older experiencing grief and loss, chronic illness and medical issues including cancer, trauma and stress related issues, significant life changes, anxiety, depression, performance anxiety, relationship conflicts, and spiritual and identity concerns. My mission is to help people heal from their emotional wounds and cope with their life challenges, using creative and evidence-based approaches.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and work primarily with adult individuals and couples in areas of anxiety, depression, parenting, trauma, medical trauma, chronic illness, grief and loss, healthcare workers, infidelity and betrayal. From a 20 year career as a hospital chaplain, I have extensive work with end of life issues, grief and loss, and cultural, religious, racial, economic and gender diversity. I believe in meeting clients where they are at and walking with them on their journey of healing and wholeness.

Are you feeling overwhelmed with the process of selecting a therapist? It's completely normal to feel that way. Please take advantage of the free consultation that I offer to determine if I am the right fit. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I specialize in working with adults, children, and couples who are dealing with issues of anxiety, pre-marital counseling, parenting, trauma, chronic illness, anger management, grief, and loss. I have experience working with individuals of all ages who have various disabilities. Additionally, I have volunteered with hospice, which has given me unique insights into grief.

I have the honor of working with people experiencing a wide variety of concerns including: depression; anxiety; grief/loss; life transitions; chronic illness; postpartum depression; sexual abuse; relationship problems; low self-esteem; family of origin; stress and more. My relational approach is based on the belief that within the framework of a trusting relationship with a therapist, clients can explore patterns of behavior and emotions which may relate back to earlier relationships. Once a better understanding of the origins of these patterns is developed, people often find lasting freedom from their hold over their lives.

In therapy I value equity, collaboration, humor, and patience. I believe in a holistic approach where we see you not as a set of symptoms, but as a whole, complex, capable human being. You are the expert in your own life– in our work I will strive to provide support, reflection, and camaraderie as you seek out a life that fulfills you. I love working with couples, families, adults, and teenagers.

Mental health care is a part of chronic healthcare and asking for help can be the hardest place to start. Mental health is a struggle that we all deal with in our own way, sometimes we need guidance and encouragement. I believe a therapist's role is to support individuals in their efforts to cope and adapt on their own. Through the journey of therapy, I want to be someone who can point out patterns that may be hindering you from reaching your fullest potential.

Life can be difficult at times and finding the right support to help you navigate life’s challenges can make all the difference. I believe it is essential to create a trusting therapeutic relationship in an inclusive and judgment free space so that you feel safe to express yourself and be you. In session, my intention is to provide an attuned listening ear while you share your concerns, thoughts and feelings. Together with curiosity and care, we will unfold past and present experiences and process their impact and meaning. I will encourage you as you gain awareness, insight, learn and grow.

Are you noticing patterns in the way you react, behave, and feel in response to people in your life? Are you tired of feeling stuck in an emotional loop that sometimes feels out of your control? Do you experience anxiety, depression, or difficulty connecting with others?

I believe that individuals grow and change in therapy mostly because they learn how to think differently about their problems and practice what they are learning. I also believe that growth and change are more likely to occur in the context of a safe, trusting, and respectful therapeutic relationship.

Life is complex and often leaves us struggling with transitions, feeling anxious and/or depressed and searching for relief. Life after any loss can feel confusing, without direction, hopeless, full of regret or in some cases filled with relief. I believe listening to you and receiving your story with compassion, will offer healing, hope, and an opportunity for positive change. I endeavor to receive and hold your pain, sadness, anger, or other emotions with grace, while supporting you as you move toward positive change and renewed well-being.
