My Services
How Do I Help?
Firstly, I’m not going to claim that everyone who chooses to get in touch with me will find the solutions to all their problems - in Minnetonka, Minnesota, the United States, and even farther afield, the field of psychology is often about connections. In an ideal world, we’ll get along perfectly well and you’ll benefit from my help. However, I also appreciate that no therapist/psychologist is suited to every single client.
This being said, working with me is straightforward because I think this is the best approach. You won’t walk away second-guessing anything I’ve said - we’ll be honest with each other and I will always give my whole attention to you during our time together.
In terms of the technical side, every case is different. Yet, I may deploy some of the techniques below to get to the bottom of the problems. Only when we’ve peeled everything back and uncovered the problems can we start to rebuild a healthier version of you. This could include:
Cognitive challenging
Emotion-focused strategies
Dichotomous thinking (black-and-white thinking)
Values assessment and aligned living
Motivational interviewing
Importantly, I also like to use humor in my sessions (therapy doesn’t need to be serious all of the time!). Over the years, I’ve learned that dark humor and making light of things is a fantastic route to progress and lightening the mood occasionally. Just know we’ll get back to business afterward.
Why Choose Me in Minnetonka?
Ultimately, I prioritize comfort and results when it comes to my therapy approach. I want people to feel as though they are making progress and experiencing positive changes during sessions rather than dreading the appointment. With authenticity, you’ll have a safe space to explore issues and improve your well-being.
Whether you’re struggling to cope with stress, are feeling burned out, or think you need codependency counseling, I will do my best to help. As you navigate the crossroads of life, you’ll learn to be honest with yourself (while also looking after yourself!). Why not contact our Minnetonka therapist for a free consultation today? I’d love to hear from you!
