Find a Therapist in United States

Often, perfectionistic and high-striving individuals are both curious about therapy and ambivalent about seeking it. They may feel excited by the possibility of understanding themselves more deeply, while also unsettled by the idea of asking for help with one’s own mind. For people who are used to being competent, self-reliant, and in control, therapy can feel exposing at first. Michael helps clients understand this hesitation not as resistance, but as part of the work itself: the wish to grow alongside the fear of needing anything at all. Many clients become more comfortable once they see that therapy is not simply about “talking about feelings,” but about learning to observe the mind with more honesty and precision. Therapy becomes a disciplined space for reflection, which itself can be a powerful tool for developing emotional clarity, self-awareness, and greater freedom in how one responds to pressure, relationships, and oneself. Michael is also attentive to the ways thoughtful, high-striving people can use insight, analysis, mindfulness, or even spiritual ideas to move around painful emotional material rather than through it. When this pattern is noticed early, it can be addressed directly and compassionately, helping therapy remain grounded, emotionally honest, and clinically useful.  

If you are spiritual, but not religious and need relationship support, you've come to the right place. Relationship Coaching helps you make tangible changes in your day to day relationship dynamic so you're not getting stuck on the same triggers and repeating the same patterns. This isn't about processing in circles endlessly, but implementing tangible change so you can heal, grow and deepen intimacy. Schedule a free curiosity call.  

At New Horizon Counseling Center we offer individuals, couples and family counseling in a group practice setting with licensed counselors and social workers. Our trained, caring therapy staff offer a variety of approaches to meet the specific needs of each client in a safe and calm setting.  

On the outside you're confident and put together, but on the inside, you're anxious, overwhelmed, and exhausted. You know you have a "good life", so you're confused why you're still anxious and depressed. You're tired of stress and want to find a way to feel content. I help clients with anxiety, depression, trauma, women’s issues, and LGBTQ+ to reconnect with themselves and feel whole. Learn more on my website: https://www.inspiredlightcounseling.com  

If you've tried to explain your relationship problems before and left feeling like something got lost in translation, this is a different kind of space. Whether you're queer, neurodivergent, first-gen, or simply someone who's never quite fit the mold, you'll be met here with zero judgment and real curiosity. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy and Somatic approaches, we'll get underneath the surface of what's keeping you stuck and work toward something that actually feels different. If you're ready, reach out.  

I have been a psychologist in trauma work for many years, thus I can tailor my approach to meet your needs. Different ages and developmental stages throughout the life span require differing approaches. People generally wait to start therapy until their symptoms are really bothersome. I am currently accepting new patients, with no waiting list.  

Stephanie is passionate about providing evidence-based treatments including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) for older adolescents, young adults and adults with OCD, depression, anxiety and related disorders. Contact Stephanie for a complimentary phone consultation  

I strive to approach each session in a supportive, nonjudgmental, hopeful, and strength-based manner. I am here to help you gain insight into your emotional well-being and improve the coping skills you need to face life's challenges. I use various approaches that can be tailored to your specific needs. I provide the guidance needed for you to improve your communication and relationships and help you move past challenges that are blocking you from achieving your personal goals.  

My background is in both psychoanalysis and neuroscience (doctorate) and I am also a Certified and Licensed Psychoanalyst. So I am able to bring both a background in research into mind/brain issues, and I am trained as a clinician. I have been working with trauma for many years, and most recently (2016) I have been working with traumatic brain injury patients (including professional athletes). I am grateful for my dual background in mind/brain, because all brain injured patients require both perspectives. In August of 2023 I published "The Complex Architecture and Healing of Traumatic Brain Injuries: Listening to The Brain" with Cambridge Scholars Publishing in the UK. This is the story (based on case histories) of the journey to find a "healing road" for all persons who have had serious disruptions in brain functioning. This is very, very challenging territory to work in. And in my experience, requires a great collaboration between doctor and patient. I am also the author of "Moon Over Seaville," the story of the hunt for a serial arsonist in Southern California (in 4 Episodes). Available everywhere under "Mystery/Thrillers." I have patients all across the country (via phone). Brain injuries can be healed!  

Thanks for stopping to look at my page! I am a licensed psychologist who loves to work with clients who are working through life changes, who’ve experienced painful past experiences in family and relationships, issues related to identity, traumatic experiences, career and work issues, anxiety and depression, relationship experiences among monogamous, poly/ENM/CNM people, LGBTQIA+ clients. For both those who are new to therapy, and those who've had lots of experience, I try to build a supportive, respectful, and compassionate environment where we have the opportunity to explore solutions to problems as they uniquely impact your life.  

I see the therapeutic process as myself guiding my clients through difficult situations to move forward in life, and feel more energized. My clients say that I supportively nudge them along and that our therapeutic rapport is what helps them better find themselves.  

Me: I am warm, informal, highly engaging and I care deeply about my clients because I want them to feel better. Effectively, this means I am trying to work myself out of a job *grin*, but that truly is the goal, right?, to help you feel better so you can live your best life! I infuse humor into sessions when and if appropriate because laughter and joy is a form of medicine in and of itself and therapy doesn't have to be 100% intense and serious every step of the way. Clients with whom I work consistently report positive growth and an overall improvement in their quality of life. My favorite quote from a client after a few sessions of EMDR therapy together is: "I don't know what kind of witch doctor you are, but this sh*t works!" While I am neither a witch nor a doctor, I am committed to supporting my clients as they grow into and/or reclaim their own similar feeling of success.  

I am a psychoanalyst in private practice in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area, where I work with adults in psychoanalysis and psychodynamic psychotherapy. My work is grounded in the belief that emotional difficulties often have meanings that are not immediately apparent, and that lasting change develops through careful attention to one’s inner experience over time. Therapy provides a space to slow down, speak freely, and develop a fuller understanding of the inner forces shaping one’s experience. I also work with couples who wish to better understand recurring relational patterns and difficulties in communication or intimacy.  

As relationship therapists, we aim to help individuals and couples overcome the challenges in their relationships. We believe that every person deserves to experience fulfilling relationships and that, with the right support, this is possible. Our approach to therapy is rooted in empathy, compassion, and a commitment to helping individuals and couples build stronger connections with one another. Through personalized sessions, we strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where clients can explore their feelings and work towards their goals. Whether it's navigating communication issues, managing conflicts, or dealing with the aftermath of infidelity, I am dedicated to providing the support and guidance necessary to help clients overcome their obstacles and create a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life.

I am a trauma specialist. I help you navigate past and present harm with a gentle but directive hand. Whether you’re hurting from a complicated childhood, religious trauma, attachment wounds, military trauma, grief, first responder trauma, bullying, abuse, or any pain that lingers long past its due date, I’m here to help. I use EMDR, IFS, and DBT to guide you with warmth, clarity, and steady support as you heal and reclaim your life.  

People come to me because I'm an expert in working with professionals who are neurodivergent. My style is direct and empathetic. I oftentimes have patients come through and tell me that they've been to therapy with other clinicians, and this work feels very different - in a good way. Of course, listening is an important part of being a therapist; however, I haven't spent all these years going to school, learning from my experience, and being a lifelong learner to keep helpful information from you. We will work to build off of your past successes, lean on your strengths, and incorporate science into the change that you want to make. Give me a call if you're looking for something different, are ready to make a change, and don't want to have to explain how your brain works for the first 4 sessions.  

I am a licensed psychologist offering therapy, parent coaching, and comprehensive evaluations for autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, and developmental challenges.

In addition to my work with neurodivergent individuals, I have extensive experience supporting those who are adopted or have experienced trauma, including related to chronic illness. My services are grounded in a trauma-informed framework for you to feel safe, understood, and confident as we work together. I believe that growth starts with collaboration, which is why my approach emphasizes working together towards practical solutions and achievable goals.
