Seeking care for mental health symptoms should be easier than it often is. Whether you’re seeking aid as intensive as residential care or as flexible as occasional outpatient appointments, you may be struggling to find providers—such as therapists—in Maplewood, MN, that fulfill your criteria. If you’d like to see a therapist and have been wrestling for far too long with waitlists, inconvenient hours, or unaffordable rates, our platform may be of benefit to you.

Here, you can look through outpatient, licensed professional counselors, therapists, and other providers in the field of clinical psychology. Perhaps you want someone who can implement dialectical behavior therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy for an attachment disorder,  obsessive compulsive disorder, or another mental illness. Or maybe you want someone to work with your child who can integrate trauma-informed therapy practices or has experience with clients with developmental disabilities such as autism spectrum disorder or ADHD.

Even if you don’t have an exact idea of who you’re looking for or what to expect, and all you know is that you need someone in counseling psychology or professional psychology, you can still find someone here who fits your needs.

Hello and welcome! My name is Jackie Walz and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in the State of Minnesota. I have been working in the field for over 10 years. I received my Bachelors of Arts degree in Sociology from The University of North Dakota in 2006 as well as my Bachelors and Masters degrees in Social Work in 2009 & 2010, respectively. My style is warm, casual, inviting, and patient. Person-centeredness has been at the center of my education and career. Therefore, I start with where you are at and focus on what's important to you. Much of my experience has been 1:1 with adults. I have a lot of experience working with the geriatric population as well as those that suffer from depression and anxiety. I come from a non-judgmental and empathetic place. If you are familiar with enneagrams, I am an enneagram type 2, meaning I'm empathetic, sincere, and warm-hearted. I have always taken on the role of a helper and enjoy walking and navigating through tough times with individuals. I also have been in a leadership position for much of my career, so I have a lot of experience in coaching and guiding within employee development. Reaching out can be very vulnerable. You are courageous for taking this first step and I look forward to working with you and helping you meet your goals!

Together, we’ll work on developing a better understanding of how the area of concern is impacting your life.

With a calming presence, I’ll be there to support you through your journey of life.
