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!

Edmund LaBarbara
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in assisting clients who are dealing with anxiety and OCD-related disorders. During our initial sessions, we will thoroughly explore these challenges and work together to create a personalized plan. Many of my clients notice a significant reduction in their symptoms within the first month, which often leads to lasting improvements in their overall well-being.
I earned a Doctorate and a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology from Chatham University in Pittsburgh, PA, in 2018. Prior to that, I completed my Bachelor of Science in Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh in 2008. Additionally, I completed a two-year postdoctoral training program at Harvard Medical/McLean Hospital’s OCDI residential program in Belmont, MA.
I am passionate about providing culturally sensitive care and strive to create a comfortable space for individuals with diverse sociocultural identities.

Gabrielle Crowe
Pre-Licensed Professional, NCC, Resident in Counseling
Hello, I'm Gabrielle and I specialize in supporting teens and adults navigating through loss, life-altering changes that disrupted their balance, or grappling with the lasting impact of a traumatic event.
Together, we'll work through feelings that are holding you back in life, such as sadness, anxiety or grief, and identify a clear path to healing. My goal is to empower you to embrace who you are so that living authentically will feel comfortable to you! Sometimes our relationships place expectations on us that keep us from living out our real truth. Or, sometimes our past experiences taught us to be anxious or even fearful of taking the steps we wish we could take in life. I believe you truly can take any step you wish, once we work through the mental and emotional blockades. I'd love to do this work with you!
Together we'll find take a look at the challenges you face and figure out practical changes you can make, bit by bit. We'll strengthen your sense of purpose and hope. I am passionate about working with women, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+ individuals, second and first-generation immigrants, as well as the Asian American community.

Dr. Julie Rashkis
Psychologist, Psy.D., MSCP
As a clinical psychologist and Menopause Society Certified Practitioner, I’m passionate about helping people feel seen and supported during midlife—a time of both challenge and transformation. Over the past 20 years, I’ve worked with individuals and couples facing changes in mood, identity, health, and relationships. My approach integrates evidence-based psychological care with the latest research in perimenopause and menopause, helping clients make sense of what’s happening in their minds and bodies. My goal is to create a space where midlife becomes not just something to manage—but a stage of renewal, clarity, and growth.

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.
