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.

Dr. Leigh Anne Randa
Psychologist, PhD
A human being, by nature, is full of contradictions. We are fragile and strong, connected and hidden, outgoing and cautious. This is the beautiful dance of the interaction of our mind and body with our environment, our personhood, our sense of something greater than ourselves. I believe a strong therapeutic bond is essential to the therapy process and the beginning of healing. Knowing that while you are unique, you are not alone in this experience of being human. My belief is that strong therapy starts with the therapeutic relationship.

Melanie Collins
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPC, LCMHC, Coach
Therapy with me is collaborative, practical, and refreshingly human. I bring extensive experience in relationships, sexuality, trauma, and neurodivergence, along with a genuine curiosity about what makes each person tick. You won’t find judgment, canned advice, or a one-size-fits-all approach here. Instead, we’ll make sense of the patterns that keep showing up, explore what’s underneath them, and find strategies that actually fit your life. If you’re looking for a therapist who can handle complicated conversations, appreciate nuance, and help you create meaningful change while still being a real person in the room, we may be a great fit.

Dr. Brandi Norman
Psychologist, Clinical Psychologist, Post-Degree Certificate Marriage and Family Therapy, PsyPact
I believe that being truly seen, heard, and understood is at the heart of meaningful change. I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental space where you can feel safe being yourself, exploring difficulties emotions and working through life’s challenges at your own pace. I do this while using evidence-based practice. It is my goal to understand you as a whole person—not just the struggles that bring you to therapy. My goal is to help you recognize your strengths, develop greater self-understanding, self-compassion and to build the psychological flexibility to navigate life’s challenges. You deserve a therapeutic relationship grounded in trust, authenticity and compassion, and that is what I work to offer every person who enters my practice.
