Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
My life’s work is dedicated to helping individuals step out of survival mode and reclaim their autonomy, clarity, and peace. Throughout my two decades as a practicing clinician, I have learned that true growth requires moving far beyond traditional "talk therapy." Real, sustainable change happens when we actively bridge the gap between clinical insight and daily, practical action.
Living with deep-seated anxiety, complex trauma, ADHD, or the heavy weight of addiction can make your world feel incredibly small, exhausting, and isolated. My mission is to provide you with an entirely safe, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where your story is met with deep clinical expertise and genuine human reverence. Because no two individuals share the same path, I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Whether we are utilizing EMDR to safely reprocess traumatic triggers, implementing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to disarm intrusive thought patterns, or applying holistic strategies to regulate a highly stressed nervous system, our work will be entirely tailored to your unique biology, history, and goals.
As a dually licensed Clinical Psychologist and Master Level Alcohol and Other Drug Counselor (MLADC), I specialize in untangling co-occurring disorders. I am uniquely equipped to help you heal the psychological pain and trauma that so often drive compulsive or self-sabotaging behaviors. I look at your mental health through an integrative lens, honoring the profound connection between your mind, your physical body, and your lifestyle.
By transitioning my practice to a fully virtual, telehealth format, I have intentionally removed the logistical barriers of traditional therapy. You no longer have to navigate commutes, traffic, or crowded waiting rooms to access elite psychological care. Our sessions take place entirely online, allowing you to process your most vulnerable challenges from the absolute safety, comfort, and anonymity of your own chosen space. You do not have to walk the path of recovery or self-discovery alone. Together, we will uncover your inherent strengths, quiet your inner critic, and build the concrete, daily tools you need to live a life aligned with your true values and authentic potential.

Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
I have over 34 years of experience working as a clinical psychologist. The bulk of my career was spent at the Minneapolis VA Health Care System, where I provided comprehensive, evidence-based psychological assessment and intervention for a range of mental health difficulties, including but not limited to depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, substance use, sleep, chronic pain, personality disorders, and psychosis. In addition to my clinical work, I served as the overall Director of Training for the APA-accredited doctoral internship and postdoctoral residency training programs. Throughout my tenure in this position, I have had the honor of providing clinical supervision and mentorship to over 300 psychology interns and postdoctoral residents.
Since retiring from my position at the VA, I have continued to…
- Maintain a private practice providing individual psychotherapy and psychological assessment
- Serve in several volunteer leadership roles involved in the national management and coordination of psychology training and education and the overall profession of psychology
- Serve on the Minnesota Board of Law Examiners
- Serve as an adjunct professor at the University of Minnesota's Clinical Psychology Doctoral Program
- Teach graduate-level courses at local psychology doctoral programs
On a more personal note, I have a passion for travel and the thrill of discovering new culinary adventures and restaurants. Cooking, art, and photography are creative outlets that I cherish, along with a love for nature and outdoor activities. My commitment to health and an active lifestyle is evident in my lifelong engagement with endurance sports, including marathon running, cycling, ironman triathlons, and hiking. These activities not only challenge me physically but also provide a strong sense of accomplishment and joy.
My practice is anchored in the belief that my clients are more than just their symptoms or diagnoses. I collaborate closely with them to thoroughly understand their unique struggles and customize a treatment approach that utilizes proven methods to address their specific needs. My objective is to apply my years of knowledge and expertise to every individual I assist.
I have extensive experience working with adults from diverse ethnic, racial, gender, sexual, and religious backgrounds. Additionally, I have developed specialized skills to address the unique challenges faced by healthcare professionals.
