Carey Luker
Licensed Professional Counselor, LMHC, LPC
What makes my therapy practice unique is the genuine care, compassion, and connection I bring to each client. I strive to create a space where people feel safe, comfortable, and truly heard without fear of judgment. My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative, helping clients feel supported while working through anxiety, stress, life transitions, burnout, relationship challenges, and personal growth. I work with adults of all ages, including college students, young adults, and individuals navigating career changes or uncertain seasons of life. I tailor therapy to each person’s individual needs and goals using evidence-based, trauma-informed, and neurodivergent-affirming practices rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Above all, I want clients to feel understood, supported, and reminded that they do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone.

Brighter Day Psychological Services
Psychologist, Psy.D
At Brighter Day Psychological Services, understanding your mind is the first step toward healing and growth. As a licensed Clinical and School Psychologist, I specialize in neuropsychological and psychological evaluations that help people gain clarity about how they think, learn, and cope with life’s challenges. Many of my clients come to me feeling confused or overwhelmed, wondering why they struggle with focus, memory, learning, or mood. Through compassionate, thorough assessment, I help uncover the “why” behind these challenges and create a clear plan for moving forward. My evaluations explore areas such as ADHD, learning difficulties, anxiety, depression, trauma, memory changes, and executive functioning, always tailored to each individual’s unique story. My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply respectful. Every report I provide translates complex information into practical insights that can make everyday life easier—whether that’s at school, work, or home. My goal is for every person I work with to leave feeling seen, understood, and equipped with tools for a brighter day ahead.

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.

Resilient Counseling, Coaching & Consulting
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
My own childhood was marked by many challenges, and it was my determination to rise above those hardships that inspired my path into counseling. I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and Mental Health Counseling from Barry University while teaching full-time and raising three children. That experience deepened my understanding of balance, perseverance, and the power of compassion.
Throughout my training, I discovered the importance of nurturing the whole person—spirit, soul, and body. While addressing symptoms can provide temporary relief, lasting healing begins at the root. I often compare it to a gardener pulling out weeds: simply trimming the tops may make the garden look better for a while, but unless the roots are removed, they will return. In therapy, when we work together to uncover and resolve the deeper causes of distress, you can experience genuine growth and transformation.
My goal is to help you cultivate resilience and create meaningful change so you can move forward with renewed energy, healthier relationships, and a greater sense of fulfillment.

Peter Linden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, Certified Gestalt Therapist
As an AuDHD (i.e. someone who is autistic and also happens to have ADHD), I am honored to work with neurodivergent people who have difficulty developing nourishing relationships, honoring themselves, and finding acceptance. I see my clients learning to sit with uncomfortable feelings and sensations, noticing their bodies, unmet needs, and humanity. From this, there is a shift from rejection to acceptance and holding. The body is no longer something to be avoided, but a home for healing, growth, and nourishment.
