15 years of experience

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience in helping people find solutions to their problems. Over the years, I have been told by clients that they really feel that I am listening to them and trying to understand what is going on in their lives and how they feel. Clients have also told me that they do not feel any sense of judgment, but rather that I accept them for who they are and where they are in their life’s journey. My style is empathetic and solution focused. I will spend time asking you questions in order to get to know you and try to find out what is at the heart of your issue. Together, we will talk about possible avenues you may want to take, or changes you may want to consider. I may give you some “homework” assignments…things to write out or think about, worksheets to complete, or even techniques/exercises to practice in your own time so that some of what we discuss in our sessions is reinforced. Most of all, I will be an objective listener, helping you to gain insight into what is going on with you, so that you are able to make the choices and changes you want to, in your own time. I look forward to working with you!

Hello! I am Dr. Rose. I am a psychologist with 15 years of experience providing therapy services. I completed my pre-doctoral internship at the Cincinnati VA Medical Hospital and obtained my graduate education from Indiana State University. I am dually licensed in Wisconsin and Indiana. While residing in Indiana, I worked in a very rural and low income area. I am currently based in Wisconsin, where I have the opportunity to work with individuals from both the more populated areas, as well as the rural areas. Additionally, I am based along the I94 corridor, so I have an interest in providing treatment to individuals who are victims of sex trafficking. Other populations I have a strong interest in working with are the LGBTQ+ population, specifically transgender individuals. I also work with individuals with depression, Bipolar, anxiety, ADHD, anger, trauma, self-esteem, and relationship problems. In my work with individuals, I find that it can often be helpful to explore the impact that the childhood upbringing and nuclear family has on present problems and relationships. I typically use an eclectic approach in sessions, adopting a variety of techniques. Some techniques I typically use are Psychodynamic, mindfulness, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Person-centered Therapy. However, I most often use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. My therapeutic approach is first, and foremost, to be real. You can always expect that I will give you honest and direct answers. I am a caring provider and I want you to succeed in being the best person you can be. I will work closely with you as a team to help you accomplish your treatment goals. I do hold the national Psychologist license, which gives you some flexibility in where you have your therapy sessions. However, not every state participates in the national license. If you plan to travel and want to have a therapy session during your travels, please check with me to ensure you will be located in a participating state.

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.

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.

Hello and welcome! I'm Christine, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in Minnesota. I work with adult individuals, with a focus on supporting persons who feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves, or uncertain about what comes next. Many of my clients are navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, or a growing sense that something in life no longer feels aligned. My approach is warm, conversational, and reflective. Together, we'll explore patterns, gain clarity, and identify meaningful steps forward. While we may occasionally discuss past experiences briefly, our work is primarily focused on the present-day challenges and opportunities in your life. I often work with thoughtful, reflective individuals who are motivated to better understand themselves and create meaningful change. They are open to exploring their thoughts, emotions, and patterns, and willing to continue reflecting on insights between sessions. If you're looking for a supportive, collaborative space to gain clarity, reconnect with yourself, and move forward with greater confidence and intention, I'd be honored to support you. I’m available for sessions by phone or video only and do not offer sessions via messaging. I'm mostly available Monday-Thursday early evenings and Tuesday-Thursday days 11-2. Individuals exploring support for trauma, parenting, eating disorder, neurodivergence, personality disorders or substance use will benefit from an alternative provider trained in these areas, who can offer specialized treatment interventions tailored to those concerns. *As a licensed counselor, I'm ethically bound to provide treatment only on issues for which I'm trained. Individuals looking for couples counseling can outreach BetterHelp Support to inquire about services with Regain. *Before scheduling your first session with me, please send a message to me with a brief summary of what brings you here today to ensure I'm the right fit for you. Thank you!

Whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, stress, or a major life change, working with a qualified mental health professional can offer real support.

With a population of 4,556,864, Minnesota is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities. Online therapy makes it easier to connect with a therapist near you without being limited to nearby offices. BetterHelp connects you with licensed therapists authorized to practice in Minnesota, allowing you to attend sessions online from the comfort of your home.

Search for a therapist by what matters to you

The search filters and location matching are built to handle specific, near-me searches. If you are looking for a therapist near you in Minnesota for anxiety, trauma, grief, LGBTQIA+ support, or another focus, you can filter by specialty, language, therapist identity, and other preferences to narrow the list to providers who fit what you need.

Why work with a licensed therapist near you?

A licensed therapist near you meets state licensing requirements and professional standards in Minnesota (MN). Licensed therapists use evidence-based approaches to help people manage emotional challenges, build coping skills, and work toward personal goals.

People seek therapy for many reasons. Some are navigating ongoing mental health concerns, while others want guidance during stressful periods or life transitions. You do not need a mental health diagnosis to work with a therapist. Many people start therapy to improve communication, strengthen relationships, manage stress, or build greater self-awareness. Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Minnesota, where access to in-person care may vary by location.

What concerns can therapists help with?

Therapists on BetterHelp support adults across Minnesota with a wide range of mental health concerns and life challenges, including:

Therapists use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and other evidence-based methods tailored to individual needs.

Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Minnesota

When searching for a therapist near me in Minnesota, many people compare online therapy with traditional in-person care. Online therapy offers several potential advantages:

  • Greater accessibility: Attend sessions from anywhere with an internet connection
  • Reduced wait times: Many people are matched in as little as 24-48 hours, faster than typical in-person availability
  • Flexible scheduling: Sessions that fit around work, family, or school commitments
  • Expanded provider options: Access licensed therapists across Minnesota, not just nearby offices

Research shows that online therapy can be effective for many mental health concerns. Online therapy may also reduce barriers such as transportation challenges, long commutes, or limited local availability, especially in larger or more rural counties across Minnesota.

BetterHelp accepts insurance through many major insurance plans. Insurance availability and coverage may vary by state, plan, provider network, therapist availability, and deductible status.

Additional discounts or financial aid may be available for a lower price, and HSA and FSA funds can be used where eligible.
