Lisa Rivers
Hello and Welcome! I am glad that you are here. I am a Licensed Psychologist in Minnesota. For over 25 years, I have worked as a therapist with many clients with various issues, including anxiety, depression, stress management, relationship issues, parenting problems, grief and loss, and trauma. My counseling style is warm and supportive. I use a person-centered approach focusing on the individual's strengths. Identifying one's strengths and coping skills that can be used to help work through various issues is an essential part of my therapy approach. I believe in building a relationship that is trusting, respectful, and comfortable. I will work with you on achieving your goals and getting what you want out of therapy. I believe that each individual can overcome struggles. Sometimes, having additional support in therapy can help identify better and recognize the coping skills and strengths they already possess. My hours are generally 9:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday-Thursday and until 3:00 pm on Friday. I like to start this process with an intake to make sure that we are a good match. I ask that you do not schedule an appointment until this short process is completed. You have taken the first step in your journey to being a happier, healthier you. I would be honored to assist you on this journey.

Vanessa Glatt
Hello, I'm Vanessa. I am an LPCC in Minnesota and California with over 9 years of experience counseling children and adults. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings counseling individuals and children with needs in Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Childhood Trauma, Grief/Loss, and Substance Addiction. I approach my client's with a warm and non-judgmental demeanor. We live in a world that can go so fast at times. It is important to remember how to take care of ourselves and our mental health. My goals for clients are to remove the stigma of mental health and to advocate for education and better understanding of how their mind functions. Many times, we just need reminders about how to reconnect with a more centered version of ourselves. I enjoy using mindfulness strategies and thinking skills to support a healthy mind. I have an eclectic approach to therapy where I often find strategies to meet my client's needs where they are at. I also recommend that my clients take stock of how they take care of their physical bodies. Our mind and body are so connected. There are times when one is communicating, but the other is not listening. My approach to therapy is getting connected with thoughts and feelings in the moment and using strategies to relieve unnecessary pain and suffering. At times, our pain and suffering can have meaning, however, we can also place undue stress on ourselves. Taking responsibility for our happiness is a choice that takes courage and strength. I look forward to supporting your needs and getting to know you. This experience is to re-engage with you as the expert of your own life.

Kenneth Roberts
“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.
