As a licensed therapist in Minnesota, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My professional approach centers on addressing depression, anxiety, stress, and interpersonal dynamics with compassionate, evidence-based strategies. I have extensive experience working with diverse populations, including young adults, caregivers, men navigating personal challenges, and individuals experiencing social anxiety or isolation.
My therapeutic practice focuses on helping clients develop stronger communication skills, improve self-esteem, and navigate difficult transitions—whether in workplace settings, family relationships, or personal growth journeys. I understand the nuanced emotional landscapes of blended families, aging individuals, and those managing seasonal emotional shifts.
With a deep commitment to creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment, I work collaboratively to help clients develop resilience, emotional insight, and practical coping strategies. My goal is to empower individuals to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful, positive changes in their lives.

Gene is honestly the best therapist I have had. I don't normally choose male therapists but this was a perfect fit for me. He is attentive and genuinely cares for my well-being.

Gene is easy to talk to. He is frank without being judgmental. I like his balance of listening vs offering feedback. I also like that he checks in to see how I feel about his observations.

This is my second time back to BetterHelp, and I specifically asked for Gene as he helped me through one of the toughest times in my life and was able to teach me skills to manage a very difficult situation. He was thoughtful and kind and provided great support when I needed it the most.

Gene has been a good resource to discuss issues and share ideas to mitigate problems. Seems like someone I could sit down and have a coffee with at a local coffee house. He provides a comfortable vibe.

Good session.

For this being my first time ever trying therapy, I was unsure and wary about its credibility. After only two sessions with Gene, I am already starting to feel growth and reaching my goals one day at a time. I am glad he is able to give me unbiased feedback and great support. For me, I need to hear the good and the bad so that I can continue to grow which Gene provides in a professional and genuine manner.

I am very grateful for the expertise, tools, and confidence I have grown with since starting therapy with Gene and Better Help. I wish it is something I would have looked into sooner. Gene has helped me learn how to manage my anxiety so I can be more present for not only myself, but my family, job, etc. I feel hopeful that what I have gained from therapy will continue with me as long as I continue to put in the effort as well.
