Therapists for college students near University of Minnesota

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.

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.

For women desiring to heal their emotional wounds so they can feel calm, confident in themselves and connected to their loved ones.

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.

Now accepting new clients! Are you navigating the ups and downs of life, struggling with the transition to school, seeking healing from loss or trauma, or striving for better control over alcohol or substance use? I specialize in trauma and addiction therapy, with training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) to address these challenges effectively. In addition to trauma and addiction, I work with clients facing a range of mental health concerns, including relationship issues, life transitions, daily stressors, anxiety/overwhelm, depression, and self-worth. My approach is tailored to each individual's needs, focusing on building effective coping skills and fostering personal growth. I have over 12 years of experience working with adolescents and adults. In our sessions, you can expect a supportive environment where your voice is heard, your experiences are validated, and your path to healing is respected. I employ a mind and body approach, recognizing that true healing often involves addressing multiple aspects of our well-being. If you’re ready to take the first step toward recovery and resilience, I am here to help guide you through that journey. Reach out by phone or email to begin a conversation about how we can work together to achieve your goals. If the times listed don't work, please reach out, as I may have availability elsewhere in my schedule.

One of the most important things to know about StarHaus and the way we practice therapy, is that we firmly believe in your ability to heal yourself. You are the expert on your own life and deep inside you already have all the answers. Our role in our therapeutic relationship will be to help you locate those answers and utilize the wisdom already within you. It would be our honor to partner with you on your journey; to assist you in locating your own internal guiding star.

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!

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.

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

I understand what it's like to struggle with the challenges of being a college student. You are balancing going to class, getting good grades, sometimes working a job, family, and friends. That's a lot. You don't have to have all the answers. It's normal to not be ok because life sucks right now. Seeing me doesn't mean you are broken, and it's ok to put your guard down and crumble. I will give you a safe place to be vulnerable and learn to trust.

Mulberry Tree Integrative Mental Health specializes in treating the whole person through Functional Psychiatry. While we do offer medication management, we also offer a deeper look into factors that may also be contributing to mental health challenges, including nutritional imbalances and genetic influences.

During our sessions together, I will support you in exploring the many parts of you and how they came to be. I will work with you to identify the negative messages connected to these parts of you. We will form a relationship with these parts and create a safe place for all of you to be seen, heard, and understood. In this safe place, you will heal yourself. Developing my own internal resources has helped me to move through some very difficult times as a member of the LGBTQ+ community. Using evidence based research, I provide care that values every part of you and respects where you came from. In those moments of pain and struggle and self-discovery, I will help you to choose yourself. I seek to create a safe and inclusive space for black-bodied individuals, first generation immigrants, LGBTQ+ folks, survivors of trauma, sex workers, and clients who are struggling with relationship and intimacy issues. My approach to mental health care is rooted in anti-oppressive and decolonizing frameworks. The treatment modalities that I use have been found to be effective across many cultures, ages, genders, and experiences. I am here to support my clients in rediscovering themselves, strengthening their mind-body connection, and living the life they have always wanted.
