Chad T. Allen
Licensed Psychoanalyst, MA, LPCC
I am a psychoanalyst in private practice in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, where I work with LGBTQ+ adults seeking a space to reflect on identity, relationships, and emotional experience. Many people seek therapy around questions of belonging, self-acceptance, relational difficulty, or the impact of past experiences of marginalization or misunderstanding.
My work is grounded in the belief that emotional life unfolds within both personal and social contexts. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy provides a space to explore how identity, relationships, and internal experience intersect, allowing individuals to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their emotional histories. Therapy offers an opportunity to speak freely and to explore experiences that may not have felt fully understood elsewhere.
I also work with couples who wish to explore relational dynamics and intimacy within the context of their shared experience.

If one of us is oppressed, we are all oppressed. I am a great fit for LGBTQ+IA folks who want to navigate grief, loss, body dysmorphia, eating disororders, neurodiversity, and trauma.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
Finding a therapist who truly gets it can be hard—especially if you’ve spent too much time explaining or editing parts of yourself to feel safe. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I know how much it matters to have a space where you don’t have to explain your existence—just your goals.
I work with LGBTQ+ adults navigating identity exploration, relationships, chosen family, workplace dynamics, religious trauma, and the deep emotional toll of living in a world that too often questions your worth. Right now, the political climate is not just unsettling—it’s harmful, especially for trans and gender-diverse folks. You deserve a space where your identity is not only affirmed but protected. At The Momentum Practice, therapy is a place to exhale, reconnect, and move forward with more clarity and strength. I offer support for the full spectrum of your experience—from anxiety and perfectionism to workplace stress and burnout. When requested, I also provide letters for gender-affirming medical care, always with warmth, respect, and zero gatekeeping. With over 15 years of experience, I help clients move from self-doubt to self-trust, and from feeling stuck to feeling more aligned, empowered, and whole. You deserve a therapist who sees you, celebrates you, and journeys beside you. You matter—and I’m so glad you’re here. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Dan Walinsky
Psychologist, PhD
Much of my career has focused on supporting LGBTQIA people in any number of ways. Whether you're at a point where you're considering coming out, if you're exploring your sexual or gender identity, or need space to process the important relationships in your life, this can be a great space to do some work. Many LGBTQIA people have had to make compromises in their lives to fit into social norms that don't mirror queer realities, and doing so can leave a real impact. I love to help LGBTQIA people work toward becoming more fully themselves.
