Therapists in Minnesota

My name is Edward Larkin, you may call me "Ted"! I have been a practicing therapist, educator, health coach and case manager for 25 years. I look forward to working with you to identify your hopes, aspirations and goals for therapy, and for your life. My approach is Client-Centered/Motivational, solutions-focused, and cognitive-behavioral, from a foundation of respect, compassion and empathy for my clients. I have a particular interest in medical psychology, stress-reduction, mindfulness and sustainable health; and can assist you to coordinate and integrate medical, behavioral and social services that you may be receiving.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with over 30 years of experience providing mental health services and behavioral supports to youth and families in diverse settings. I recently retired from Minneapolis Public Schools after 20 years working with youth and families of students with anxiety disorders such as school phobia, self-injurious behaviors, eating disorders, learning disorders, focus and attention concerns. I facilitated family change groups, Native student groups, LGBTQ+ and grief and loss support groups. Prior to Minneapolis Public schools, I worked in a variety of settings including the Center for Victims of Torture, The Minneapolis Crisis Nursery, and supervised ICF/MR group home facilities for young adults with multiple disabilities. I have also worked as a community organizer. I draw from an eclectic array of treatment modalities including Cultural Informed Trauma Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Insight Therapy, Mindfulness Meditation, and Yoga Calm. Treatment will be based on goals we set together. The ultimate goal will be to help you develop your internal resources, tools, and social support networks to sustain a healthy, meaningful, and fulfilling life. I am a white male in my early 60’s. I have been involved with equity and social justice work my entire adult life. I live in, have worked in, and highly value multi-racial and multi-cultural communities. I read and speak Spanish, have lived and traveled extensively in Central and South America. My pronouns are he/him. I live in South Minneapolis with my wife of 39 years. I am a yoga and mindfulness meditation practitioner. I enjoy singing, playing my guitar, swimming, and biking.

I am a licensed marriage and family counselor in Minnesota with 22 years of experience working with individuals and families. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including persons experiencing anxiety, depression, substance use issues, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and personality disorders. My counseling style is warm and solution based. I believe in meeting people where they are at in their journey, as it takes a great deal of courage to share personal life struggles. In my perspective, the development of a trusting therapeutic relationship is a crucial component in creating a safe working environment. This therapeutic relationship will also assist the person in identify areas of their life they would like to improve and specific personal goals to incorporate in the development of a treatment plan. Together we will work to mutually define next steps towards these identified goals and ultimately work toward their desired outcome. I do recognize that it takes a great deal of strength and vulnerability to reach out for help, and I sincerely commend you for taking this first big step! I am looking forward to the chance to work together and to help you live your best life!

I am a professional counselor licensed in Minnesota with over 10 years of experience as a therapist and performance enhancement/sport psychology consultant. I have worked with clients on a broad array of issues, including anxiety, depression, performance related challenges (for example, in sport, job, or school), relationship difficulties, life and career transitions, substance abuse, and parenting struggles. My therapeutic style is attentive, curious, and patient. That style also includes treating all people with respect and cultural sensitivity. My therapeutic approach is a combination of motivational interviewing, humanistic, cognitive behavioral, and acceptance and commitment therapies. I see myself as a guide or coach who uses empirically supported treatments to help clients discover their own answers and solutions based on their lived experiences. You are the expert on you and I can help guide you through the process of developing the skills you need to live the life you want. You have taken a courageous step toward improving your health and well-being. I would be pleased to take further steps with you along your journey.
