I am a person-centered therapist who believes in the potential in each individual. I have worked with individuals from highly varied backgrounds and work to see the potential for growth in each person. I have experience teaching, training, and providing therapy for individuals of all ages. I help largely through helping people find their motivation, self-worth, and potential in order to solve issues ranging from past traumas to current dilemmas. Through my career to this point I have been trained in Motivational Interviewing, Mediation, Thinking for Change, and Clinical Hypnosis. In session I also use techniques ranging from CBT, Adlerian psychology, and more. My experience has often involved individuals struggling with severe mental illness, substance use/alcohol use disorders, trauma, PTSD, and domestic violence. I have also done work with individuals working on parenting skills for typically developing children as well as those with developmental/intellectual delays. I am married and we have two sons.

25 years offering treatment
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with 20+ years of experience in an outpatient clinical setting. I have worked with a wide range of individuals and problems. I really enjoy helping people find greater happiness and satisfaction in their lives. My approach tends to be informal. I have had training in many modalities, but I feel the most important part of therapy is the quality of our relationship. I believe everyone deserves to be treated with respect. When we are communicating, you are the most important person to me in that moment. I want to understand your problems from your perspective. I will bring my years of experience and training to our time to figure out together what will help overcome the obstacles you experience. I know seeking help and trusting a stranger with private things is hard. I respect that. I will try to earn that respect each time we connect.

I am a marriage and family therapist and a professional clinical counselor licensed in the state of Minnesota. I am also a certified Adlerian life coach and am endorsed as an infant mental health specialist. I am currently in a doctoral program working on my Ph.D. in infant and early childhood development with a dissertation related to infant and toddler attachment in relation to their fathers. I've also worked as a consultant to childcare providers. I've worked with children and families and supported them through parenting struggles, attachment issues, grief, loss, pregnancy, post-partum depression, severe anxiety, parental separation, trauma, and challenging circumstances. I have been with clients during crises and helped them determine the best ways to maintain their safety and find them the supports they need. I have also been with clients as they take small steps to make real changes in their lives, and we celebrate together. I'm also passionate about helping young adults figure out their next steps. What goals do you have? Who do you want to see in the mirror each day? What steps can we take together to help you reach your ideal self? This is all about YOU Beginning. My therapeutic style is all about you. I think of therapy as giving yourself a brief time to get your revolving thoughts out of your head, clean them up, polish them, replace them, or reestablish them, as best fits your happiest life. I utilize a psychodynamic approach and find Alfred Adler's practical psychology with real-time solutions useful and effective. I love using nature in my therapy and find nature to have its own therapeutic effect. I'm a firm believer in therapy being a collaborative process and want to make sure that you and I are focused on the same goals to get the results you're looking for. I like to combine mind-body techniques like deep breathing, guided imagery, and yogic movement into therapy and role-play and practice assertive communication. I'd love to speak with you about your goals and what the most effective support looks like for you. Please let me know if you have more questions about the therapeutic process and when it works best to get started.

Hello, my name is Mary Lynn Widseth, my passion is helping people learn to understand themselves and those around them. I currently hold a master’s degree in Community Psychology and Rehabilitation Counseling. I am a licensed LPC(Licensed Professional Counselor) and certified as a CRC ( Certified Rehabilitation Counselor) whose area of focus is adults. I received my Master’s degree from Saint Cloud State University and a certificate in Autism and my Bachelor's degree from the University of Wisconsin -Stout with a degree in Vocational Rehabilitation. The experience I generated using my bachelor's was working with marginalized groups of adults with cognitive, mental, physical, or communication issues related to working environments. During this time I facilitated group and individual placements and provided transportation. In addition, I provided on-the-job training so the individual understood how to perform their jobs efficiently. Communication with the staff, client, and employer was a crucial component especially when language is a barrier such as Sign Language and conversational Spanish. Another issue where I was able to understand barriers due to my impediments stemming from my diagnosis of Cerebral Palsy at a young age made it easier for me to relate to their struggles. This diagnosis helped me think creatively to resolve issues in environments where one side isn’t as strong as the other. My experience post-master degree has been completing in-home therapy for children aged 7 to 18 and their families for 2 years and an additional 2 years working with adults and children in an office setting as a mental health therapist. During my 2 years in the office, I have worked with adults from many backgrounds including, transgender, bi-sexual, addictions, and surgical alterations of the body for improvement of physique and mental health. The biggest issue children have is in the area of behavior/ emotional regulation, communication, and social/ family relationships, which adults struggle with as well. I have used several techniques that have helped children and their families in resolving these issues. When working with adults I used many therapeutic methods to assist them with anxiety/depression, ADHD, Autism, relationship skills, and overall functioning. Another strength is that I have worked with individuals with language barriers using picture books, rebus boards, and sign language.

“You don’t have to control your thoughts. You just have to stop letting them control you.” I am a licensed clinician in the state of Minnesota specializing in treating co-occurring disorders. I am particularly passionate about helping individuals dealing with unresolved trauma and certified in several evidence -based trauma focused therapy modalities. Whatever emotional pain you may be experiencing, is not something that should be hidden away and never spoken about. There is truth in your pain, there is growth in your pain, but only if it’s first brought out into the open. Keeping pain inside is scary and isolating. I am available to walk with you on the journey to recovery.
