I enjoy working with seekers willing to engage in a journey to further self-discovery, and who have a practice (i.e. arts, spiritual, physical)--or seek to have a practice--that guides them.

If you're here because your past traumas are creeping up on you, what you show the world doesn't align with what's on the inside, or your anxiety/depression has depleted you---I want to work with you. You might be someone who has a hard time asking for help, so the fact that you're even thinking about getting it is a big step. You don't have to keep feeling the way you are. Sometimes, we just need a therapist to guide us along our path to feeling better. I want you to feel equipped to handle life’s ever-changing ups and downs, and to be able to do it with a sense of purpose, stability, and self-awareness. I work best with clients who are young professionals (in their 20's-30's) or youth (10 and up). They're ready for real change. Clients who are a good fit for me might come to therapy because they have a hard time calming down, feel trapped by their traumas, struggle with perfectionism, or are just feeling like something is missing in their lives. My style of therapy is warm and nonjudgmental. We'll come together to look at how the present is intertwined with your past, and find ways that work for you to cope. When it comes to trauma, I don't believe you need to even fully remember it to heal from it. If you need help but don't know what questions to ask, that's ok! Reach out for a free consultation.

I specialize in helping individuals recovery from eating disorders, disordered eating, compulsive/obligatory exercise, body image distress and associated anxiety and depression. I practice virtually in Colorado so accessing counseling is flexible and convenient. I understand the challenges of academic rigor at Mines and have worked with many Mines students -undergrad and grad. Fun fact: I majored in Chemistry and decided in the end I was more interested in people than molecules. I've been supporting people in eating recovery for over a decade. My clients tend to find me approachable, non-judgmental, and action oriented.

You've perfected the art of seeming like you have it all together, but on the inside it feels like things are falling apart. You're dealing with a lot of stress, your worry keeps you up at night, and you have difficulties saying nice things to yourself. You have big dreams and life goals, but somehow you can't quite keep up with day-to-day demands. Outside influences and pressures are bringing you down, you find yourself procrastinating on important tasks, and avoidance has become your go-to coping mechanism. Your anxiety is getting in the way of your happiness and you're tired of feeling stressed, anxious or burned out. There’s not a one-size-fits-all approach to healing. The models I pull from are dependent upon your unique needs and healing process. My clients appreciate my warm and inviting, yet direct approach. I am an active participant in your therapy and I will not tip-toe around your challenges. Your time is valuable and I want you to get the most out of therapy. You deserve to take care of yourself with the unconditional support of someone who is trained to help you navigate through these difficult times. When you’re ready, I invite you to connect with me. I offer a free 15-minute phone or video consultation so you can get a feel for whether I'm a good fit for you. I'd love to hear from you!

Welcome. I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Amanda Tieri, and I’ve been a social worker for over 15 years. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside individuals and families through some of life’s most challenging and most meaningful moments. My work has taken place primarily in healthcare settings, where I’ve supported people of all ages and backgrounds as they navigate illness, loss, transitions, and healing. What I’ve learned over the years is that every person’s story matters. Whether you’re seeking therapy for the first time or returning to it after some time away, I want you to know that this is a space where you will be heard, respected, and supported without judgment. My approach is grounded in compassion, authenticity, and a deep belief in your capacity for growth. I bring not only clinical experience but also a genuine curiosity about who you are and what matters most to you.

Hi, I'm Courtney. I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who specializes in relationship issues, self-esteem and communication. I'm about helping you discover your true self so you are more confident and self-assured so you're able to thrive in relationships with everyone around you. In session, we'll learn how past behaviors, traumas, and relationships influence your current situation. We'll increase your insight into your own personality and how it aligns (or doesn't) with your partners. We'll dive deep into your own expectations of others, and how it influences your choices. We'll increase your communication skills, specifically focusing on being more open and assertive. We'll make sure your relationships with family, friends, and partners are equal by decreasing your people-pleasing tendencies and increasing boundaries.

From there, we'll create a practical plan with real tools to help you, your teen or young adult feel more confident.

Please Note: As we address the global challenge of COVID-19, I have expanded my availability and moved all sessions online. If you are in Minnesota or Colorado, reach out and we can talk about getting started online for therapy. You're here because something about sex has been a concern for months, or maybe as long as you can remember. You wonder "will it always be this way? Is it even possible to feel good?" It can be lonely and overwhelming to feel disconnected from sexuality. It can cause a rift in your relationships, trickle into your work, and your general ability to relax. I'm here to help you discover, heal, and renew erotic pleasure. You want to feel good about who you are and connected to the people you care about. You want to feel free from past hurt and trauma. You want sex to be safe, pleasure-filled, and dare I say...fun! You deserve to have a smile on your face when you think about sex and the most intimate connections in your life. As a certified sex therapist, I specialize in helping people heal from sexual trauma, strengthen intimate relationships, and cultivate erotic pleasure. At the end of the day, there's nothing more important in life than meaningful connections. Visit my website to learn about my holistic approach to finding healing and pleasure.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 10 years of experience working in the field. For the past 7 years I have been working at a college campus in Minnesota focusing on working with BIPOC students. I have worked in various community settings as well as private practice. I have worked with individuals struggling with adjustment and mental health concerns such as depression and anxiety. I am aware of how difficult it can be for college students to transition to adulthood as well as manage high stress of school, family and work.

Hey--I'm Julie. I offer therapy that focuses on what matters to you and making changes that matter to you. Whether you're a queer or trans person fighting to be seen & heard on your terms, or in a relationship hijacked by conflict & pain, or your struggling to keep up with *all the things*, I can help. My specialty is asking questions that open pathways to your preferred tomorrow. I don't do lengthy and intrusive "intakes." I'm ready for the conversation you want to have. I'm also a professor--I teach at the University of Minnesota in the Youth Studies program. I know how sucky & stressful it is to juggle school w/other responsibilities. I know that some of you may be: precariously housed; living with food insecurity; facing the violence of racism, homo-and transphobia, white nationalist threats, sexism, and other oppressive systems; and/or squeaking by on poverty wages. That's all stuff that f*cks with you and we can find ways together to stand up and reclaim your life. Read more at my website, www.2stories.com, or give me a call/shoot me an email and I'll be happy to answer your questions about meeting together. In solidarity, Julie

If you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or tired of carrying emotional burdens on your own, you're not alone—and you don’t have to go through it alone. Life can bring seasons of struggle, but healing is possible. Whether you're facing anxiety, trauma, addiction, or simply seeking clarity and direction, I see you. You deserve a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. My approach to therapy is rooted in faith, empathy, and trust. I believe in walking alongside you with compassion while also helping you stay accountable to your goals. Using evidence-based modalities, I support individuals navigating both Mental Health and Substance Use Disorders. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and build the tools you need. With consistent support and honest feedback, clients often find new clarity, emotional resilience, and renewed purpose. I believe you can be healed and grow into your full potential. If you’re ready to take that next step, I’m here to help.

Hello! My practice is focused on complex, chronic mental health challenges, especially borderline personality and chronic depression (dysthymia). The clients I work with often grapple with isolation, mood instability, a nagging sense of emptiness, and recurring relationship struggles. Substance use may be present, but is rarely the core issue. Many have tried therapy before, and have perhaps found some benefit, but remain skeptical about whether it can truly bring the change they seek. My goal is to help you identify deep patterns that have subtly narrowed your options in life, challenge and overcome these patterns, connect more easily with others, and generally feel more at home in the world. I have been fortunate enough to train in mentalization-based treatment and schema therapy, both of which have been recognized as evidence-based treatments for complex, chronic mental health problems. I work to provide a safe, supportive, and inquisitive environment in which you can share your experiences, feel heard, and try out new ways of understanding yourself and relating to others.

You're facing something big. A life change, illness, sadness, grief, or maybe just the quiet sense that something needs to shift. You don't have to face it alone. For the past 20 years, I’ve worked with hundreds of people facing cancer, one of life’s toughest curveballs. I offer compassionate therapy rooted in real human connection, emotional resilience, and the belief that healing is possible—even in the shadow of loss, uncertainty and change. Whether you're navigating a major life change, illness, grief, or simply trying to hold yourself together during a hard season—I’m here to help you find steadiness, meaning, and your next step forward.
