I am a licensed psychologist in Minnesota with over 15 years of experience working as a therapist and executive coach. I have worked with many people over the years with a variety of concerns including, anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, LGBTQ issues, career issues, and people simply wanting to gain more insight into who they are in order to further grow and develop. My style is warm and inclusive. My goal is to listen and be curious, to help you gain insight and deepen in your understanding of yourself in order to live with intentionality. My theoretical approach to understanding clients is psychodynamic, and I use a variety of interventions and strategies to meet the specific needs of the person I'm trying to help. Ultimately, I think providing a safe, trusting relationship - free of judgement and full of acceptance - is often the most helpful thing I can do. I commend you on the steps you've already taken to live a more fulfilling life. And your next steps are well within reach. I look forward to working with you!

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with over 26 years of experience providing Christian counseling services to individuals and couples helping with issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship challenges and major life transitions. Additionally, my background also includes nursing, military life and teaching college level courses. My counseling style reflects a relationship focused approach utilizing Cognitive-Behavioral strategies. I have a holistic approach to help one move towards change that includes a focus on individual and relational awareness, taking responsibility and pursuing well-being in every area of life. As an individual client, you will be encouraged to explore and build a deeper understanding of yourself, your strengths and your responses to life’s challenges as well as develop a greater awareness of your relationship with God and others. As a couple, you will also be engaged in a holistic approach. But in addition, you will be encouraged to explore the unique dynamics of your relationship and God's design while developing greater insight into your needs, strengths and your responses to life’s challenges as a team. This all helps to create a lifelong commitment. While my Christian faith is the foundation for my services, I am respectful to understand your needs and your values and to help you work towards your specific counseling goals.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who has worked with thousands of people over the past 15 years. I work best with people who have a desire for self growth, want to increasing their self awareness and believe in a higher power to assist with achieving this. We are so much more than our thoughts and emotions. My approach primarily focuses on developing self awareness by teaching people how to understand their thoughts, behaviors and emotions. I use a variety of styles that focus on Positive Psychology including but not limited to Hypnotherapy, Eneagram, Inner Child and Parts Work, ACT, CBT, Solution Focused and Existential . We unconsciously think, behave and feel certain ways about ourselves, others and/or the world and want to change but don't know how. We also over think trying to fix an issue, however, it clearly does not work and often does more harm than good. I am passionate about the use of insight oriented techniques such as mindfulness, meditation and hypnosis. I became Certified as a Hypnotherapist by the National Guild of Hypnotists in 2016 and have extensive clinical hypnosis training through the Minnesota Society of Clinical Hypnosis . I have over 200 hours of education training in various hypnosis methods. I have been utilizing hypnotherapy in my mental health practice and have witnessed incredible change that people were unable to achieve through talk therapy alone . Hypnotherapy assists with uncovering and healing the unconscious blocks that contribute to unwanted, repeating patterns.

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.

Hello and welcome! My name is Augustina Garba. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin, Whitewater with a master’s degree in Counseling in May 2002. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I started out working with adult mental health individuals with schizophrenia and bipolar disorders. During my internship, I was exposed to working with severely abused and neglected children. This experience was what inspired me to work with children and families. I now provide individual and family therapy sessions targeting anger management for children and at-risk teenagers. My passion has always been to help bring about changes in the lives of individuals and families while partnering with them to create hope in their future. In 2009, I went into Private Practice. I now work with children, adults, and families, providing individual and family therapy sessions. I also work with adult survivors of childhood abuse. My focus is to help them heal from their trauma and overcome related issues and problems that could develop due to their abuse. These could range from depression, anxiety, PTSD, panic attacks and stress. I work with many individuals and couples in relationship building. I counsel couples with relationship and divorce issues, anger management and domestic violence. My focus in counseling is to work with you to resolve issues that challenge you and restore self-efficacy to couples, individuals and families. I am supportive in therapy and a good listener. I will collaborate with you, using teaching skills and give you tangible assignments to help you succeed in achieving your goals of finding a long-term meaningful solution. I am consistent and believe in building a trusting and reliable client-therapist relationship. I look forward to working with you!
