Ariana Marciniak
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA
Ariana is passionate about working with populations holding intersectional identities. She supports adolescence and young adults in navigating their identity, relationships, and life transitions. As a queer, multiethnic therapist, she also has a passion for working with LGBTQ+ folks and people of color, holding space for the ways oppression, intergenerational trauma, and systemic barriers intersect with mental health.
As a multicultural, multiethnic therapist of Mexican and Polish heritage, I understand what it’s like to exist in the in-between—navigating identity, belonging, and the push and pull of different cultural expectations. I work closely with couples and those in non-monogamous relationships, using the Gottman Method, attachment-based therapy, and relational interventions to uncover disconnections and help you experience your relationships in their fullest, healthiest form. I also support couples working through sexual discrepancies, ineffective communication, and patterns of conflict that create distance rather than connection. Using Nonviolent Communication (NVC), I help partners develop deeper understanding, express needs with clarity, and cultivate emotional and physical intimacy in ways that feel safe and fulfilling for both partners.

Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.S.ED, LCPC
I am a legally-blind counselor who listens carefully to client's needs to determine what works and what may not be effective. A collaborative approach is used to meet your needs. If you prefer a direct and interactive clinician that is my style. However, I'm flexible and integrate client preferences to achieve clients goals.

Elaine Flockerzi
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
Navigating life at any age can be tough, and it’s important to remember that some struggles are too challenging to face on your own. I believe that everyone has strengths and the ability to grow, overcome challenges, and heal. That’s why I intend to support you on your journey by helping you get the most out of therapy and life. I provide a safe, judgment-free space for you to discover, use, and expand your strengths. I also use evidence-based approaches suited to your specific needs, goals, personality, and learning style.
With 15 years of experience in community mental health and residential treatment, I use evidence-based approaches for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, low self-esteem, identity exploration, education/career transitions, and LGBTQIA+ issues.
Don't let doubts stop you from reaching your goals. You deserve happiness and fulfillment in every part of your life. If my profile resonates with you, I would be honored to join you on your journey. I look forward to being someone you can trust, depend on, and work with to achieve the meaningful change you seek.

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.
