Merritt Posten Benz
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LSCSW, CDWF, MCLC
I am drawn to raw unfiltered courage. Going to therapy a brave choice and it takes tenacity and grit to feel differently and make changes in our lives. When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we become the author who writes the brave new ending. Together we will examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are holding you back identify the new choices and practices that will move you toward more authentic and wholehearted living. Rarely is that decision a whim or an impulse, and most likely you've been thinking about this for a while. Now here you are; being curious and maybe nervous and scared at the same time. In my opinion - that is bravery and brave things are rarely comfortable, but always worth trying.
Whether you are looking to make a shift in your relationships, provide help and guidance for your children, or you have reached a point in your own life where you no longer want to "figure it out alone"- you have come to a good place to get moving. It can get better.
We all struggle at times - with anxiety, depression, and stress - along with the circumstances in our lives that contribute to these feelings. The "feelings" themselves are never wrong. Where we get into trouble (and can feel stuck in them) is when we can't make sense of it all and isolation creeps in. You're not in this alone.

Norma J. Perez
Psychologist, PhD
I'm not your ordinary therapist. I have 24 + years of experience as a therapist, plus I have the life experience of a wife of 43 years, mother of two, and grandmother of four. I am the therapist that people come in and say, "Wow, you helped me more in one session than I got out of years with several other therapists." I am fun, direct, empathetic, but direct so that you can have the results you are looking for in a short amount of time. I love what I do, so it's not work to me. I'm very interactive in sessions so there won't be many times where I just sit there and don't provide feedback. I'm the type of therapist that will call you out on your stuff so I can help you meet your goals and have better relationships with others. I love talking with potential clients to see if I'm a good fit. After a phone call with me you will be able to get a sense if I'm a good fit for you. Please give me a call and let's chat!

MN Couples & Family Therapy
Psychologist, Ph.D., L.P.
I believe people have the inherent ability to connect to their best selves if given good tools, opportunities & have the motivation to do the work. I believe it's important to provide as many tools as possible for clients to use on their own. I am active & direct in therapy while also providing empathy & support. I love working with couples & families because the ripple effect of creating positive, healthy relationships is huge & can extend for generations.

Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or like your brain is running ten tabs at once (and none of them are loading), you're in the right place. I'm Dr. Megan Marks, a licensed psychologist and owner of The Momentum Practice, where I help high-achieving adults, neurodivergent folks, and anyone navigating life transitions find clarity, confidence, and a little more calm. With over 15 years of experience and a knack for making complex challenges feel manageable, I offer a space where insight, growth, and the occasional well-timed laugh go hand in hand. If you’re tired of second-guessing yourself, losing sleep over “what ifs,” or just need someone who gets how hard it is to juggle everything, I’m here—and yes, I do speak fluent overthinking! Reaching out can feel like a big leap, but it might just be the momentum you need. Whether you're navigating burnout, big transitions, or the beautiful chaos of being human—I'm here to help. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!
