Roanne de Guia-Samuels
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, CChT
Tried talk therapy and you're body's still left reactive? Tried somatic (bodywork) approaches and your mind is left confused? Why choose one? Sustained healing includes the mind and body so that your body can stop being in survival mode and your mind rewired for calm. My practice merges psychotherapy, hypnotherapy and bodywork because healing should treat the "whole" you not merely parts of you. In-office or Online services available.

Eliana Kohanzad
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT, MDR
Whether you feel weighed down by stress, dating or your relationship or an unexpected life event, there is help and there is hope. You know that there must be more to life than the pressure you're experiencing but you’re not sure what that looks like for you or perhaps how to even get there. You want support not just in improving how you’re feeling right now, but also in identifying and healing the source of what’s brought you to this place. I specialize in helping adults navigate the dating world, relationships, friendships, and family conflict.
I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you’ll get tools that you can put into action in your day-to-day life, as well identify the root cause behind these challenges you’re facing. I’m here to help you grow and flourish in the way that’s right for you.
It is possible to move on from toxic cycles and relationships, heal from painful past experiences, and feel more confident and secure in yourself and I would love to help you get there. Together, we’ll work on communication, boundary setting, and embracing your authentic self. Ready to evolve? Schedule a complimentary 15-minute consultation today!

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.

Advent Christian Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT (R.N.-retired)
What distinguishes my practice is the breadth of perspective I bring — decades in the healing professions, first as a Registered Nurse and subsequently as a counselor — affording me a genuinely holistic understanding of the individuals I serve. My Christian faith and regard for Biblical truth provide the foundation for all that I do, yet I welcome clients of any background who desire growth grounded in traditional values. If you have found that surface-level approaches fall short of what you need, and you seek someone who will thoughtfully and faithfully accompany you through life's more difficult terrain, I would be honored to speak with you.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
I specialize in supporting women navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and the lasting impact of trauma. My approach to healing is holistic and integrative — honoring the deep connection between mind, body, and nervous system. Together, we will explore how anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma are quietly shaping your relationships, self-worth, and sense of peace. In spite of being successful in life, you might feel that something is missing.
Using practical tools, mindfulness-based strategies, and trauma-informed modalities, I help clients build resilience, strengthen boundaries, and reconnect with their authentic selves. Healing is a journey, and I will be with you every step of the way.
