Hi. I'm Michelle Carter, LICSW, MSW, SAP, with DBT and Trauma credential (CTTP) eligibility. My primary interest and concern is you, your goals and current or persistent challenge(s). I believe the therapeutic process is a collaborative one. You may know what you want and need, yet you experience obstacles. Sometimes, we aren't sure of what we truly want or need. Sometimes, we get distracted by the "should do's" or "should be's," that are actually someone else's wants or needs. Somewhere along the journey, we can pick up rocks we carry, unaware that we can set some of these down. We can become free to keep and carry those goals, values and ideas we truly want for ourselves in our lives. This then applies equally to others. I act as a guide to assist you in discovering greater self-awareness, acceptance, and strengths I will support you in a nonjudgmental exploratory journey to define and reach your goals that come from the healthy, confident you-- not from fear or symptomatology. We can explore and determine how best to decrease the symptoms or behaviors that are holding you back from more meaningful, free and joyful experiences. I look forward to working with you. toward greater health and personal freedom. Michelle

Katie Shadrick
I am a licensed professional clinical counselor licensed in Minnesota with over 10 years experience working in the mental health field in a variety of different positions, with the last 3 years being licensed to do therapy. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, personality disorders, substance use disorders, relationship issues, trauma related concerns, grief and loss issues, and stress management. My counseling approach to helping clients is to work with them where they are currently at in order to work on bettering their lives through learning new coping skills and understanding why they have been struggling with their issues. My approach focuses on developing a therapeutic alliance by using client-centered approach as well as using cognitive behavioral techniques to assist individuals to overcome the obstacles they are currently experiencing in their life so they can move forward and have the life that they have always wanted. It is possible to develop more effective coping skills no matter where you are in life. Everyone struggles from time to time due to different causes. I am ready and prepared to work with you in order to help you achieve the life you want.

Dr. Rachelle Reinisch
I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and an Advanced Certified Grief Recovery Specialist® with over 30 years of experience in the mental health profession. Through the years, I have developed a passionate interest in grief and loss, and I understand the impact of unresolved grief on every aspect of a person’s life. Whether you are grieving due to death, divorce, a change in your life (e.g., loss of a relationship, job loss, or relocation), limitations of your body, loss of health, or a loss of faith, I am here for you. Incomplete recovery from grief has a significant lifelong impact on an individual’s capacity for joy and happiness. As your partner in grief recovery work, you and I move from discovery to recovery. This process is action-oriented and provides steps you will use throughout your life. Grief recovery work is helpful for any person struggling with shame, guilt, physical illness or pain, sadness, anxiety, or a significant change in a familiar behavior or pattern in life. Although I am a licensed therapist, the Grief Recovery Method® is not considered clinical psychotherapy. It is an action-oriented tool kit that people can use for the rest of their lives to address every type of loss. Our partnership is therapeutic; it is not therapy. Therefore, I can work online with clients anywhere in the United States. If you are ready to experience peace and breathe a bit deeper, I am here. I would be honored to serve as your Grief Recovery Method® partner. I found great hope within the Grief Recovery Method®, and I know you will, too.

Ramon Reina
I have an MSW from the University of Minnesota and a LICSW license from the Board of Social Work in Minnesota. My over 30 years of experience include working with 15 to 25 age groups dealing with depression, divorce, adjustment to new settings, anxiety/relationships, and families experiencing divorce. Considering therapy is a difficult step for many. I bring a personable and skillful demeanor to help put clients at ease. I practice Reality Therapy and have been Certified in Choice Theory, also a psychology begun by Dr. Glasser. Reality therapy focuses on an individual suffering from a universal condition rather than a mental health illness. This approach gives the individual a choice in how to proceed.
