Therapists for college students near University of Minnesota

You may often second guess yourself, judge yourself and/or over think every interaction or choice you make lately. Maybe your friends or family have pointed out that you seem off or maybe you’ve been hiding it. There’s no shame in getting support so you can return to yourself and move forward in a way that more aligns with who you want to be. Working with me comes with ease and emotional safety. I provide online therapy for adults who reside in the state of MN and offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to see if we are a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you!

Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to learn more about me! I have over 15 years of experience working in the mental health field in various settings--including inpatient, outpatient, inner-city clinics, schools, and private practice. I specialize in the treatment of Anxiety Disorders and ADHD. My passion for the field stems from my personal experience with it--overcoming a debilitating anxiety/panic disorder and accompanying depression. It was the scariest, most difficult time of my life. However, I made a promise to myself that if one day I could overcome my debilitating anxiety, then I would help others to do the same. I approach every client uniquely and use an eclectic, person-centered, integrative, evidence-based model as well as the ACT model. We will set overall goals that will not only help you with what you are struggling with mentally but also aid you in reaching better health all-around. When ready, I will challenge you and help set weekly goals to work towards. Aside from the omnipresent stigma, the process of getting help can be overwhelming and exhausting, leaving one feeling frustrated and lonely. However, I also know how life-changing it can be to find the right help. You only get this one life and I am here to help you live it in your most authentic, fully expressed, ideal way. I look forward to connecting!

Sometimes you feel out of place, like you can't connect to other people. Your life might appear "normal" but you can't seem to enjoy it. You may feel alone, like nobody else understands, and might wish you could be more present for your kids/work/partner/family. While you have experienced trauma, pain, loss, hardship, or addiction, you are ready to take hold of your future. If you are looking to break free of a painful past that has you chained in your present, you have found the right place. Thrive clients are women who have struggled, felt alone, and are exhausted. They are people who want support in moving forward. I am genuine, honest, upfront and interactive, and emphasize the importance of our connection for your healing. I treat trauma through the lens of mind/body connection. I primarily use EMDR, which bridges the trauma stored in your body/mind/spirit to allow healing, CBT, which helps you identify and replace unhealthy thoughts, and DBT to teach coping skills. There will be no stuffy office space, writing notes under the gaze of judging eyes, or a long couch...promise! I'll be the supportive ear that puts your butt in gear! You will laugh, cry and heal.

Hi, I’m Dr. Kayla April, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida and Minnesota. I specialize in working with teens, young adults, and older adults dealing with anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD, stress, grief, end-of-life concerns, and mood disorders. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness. In our first sessions, we’ll build a strong connection and create a personalized treatment plan. I use a Unified Protocol approach and am passionate about destigmatizing mental health and supporting lasting change. As a clinician, I offer the opportunity for clients to have autonomy in their sessions and come up with ways on how we can partner together to get through tough moments you are having in life. My primary method of treatment is psychotherapy focused on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. I invite you to be vulnerable for a moment and trust me through the process. If you suffer from anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or other serious mental health disorders please reach out and take the steps to self-healing.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck in your thoughts, or just not like yourself lately? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out alone, either. I work with students who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and life transitions that can feel confusing or heavy. Many of the people I work with are used to putting others first, staying busy, or “holding it together” even when they’re struggling inside. If that sounds familiar, this may be a good place to start. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I offer a space that’s judgment-free, supportive, and focused on what you need. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on and create a personalized plan that may include therapy, medication support, or both—always at a pace that feels right for you. I currently see clients through secure, easy-to-use telehealth, so you can access care from wherever you feel most comfortable. If you’re ready to feel better, I’d love to help you get started.

Does This Sound Like You?​ You’re burned out from trying to do everything right. You’ve been called "too sensitive" or "too much". You’ve got big dreams but get overwhelmed or stuck. You say yes when you want to say no. You do all the “right” things and still feel exhausted and stuck. You crave rest, clarity, and space to just be.​​ Let’s Change That​ Together, we’ll quiet the noise, ease the anxiety, and help you start showing up for yourself. Less guilt. More peace. A life that actually feels like yours.

Are you having a hard time juggling school, work, family, friend, and self care? Are you finding it harder than you anticipated to stay motivated and focused? Many college students realize once starting school, that moving away, making new friends, being alone for holidays, having additional responsibilies and independence can become very overwhelming and isolating. Working together we can process some of the changes and challenges that are coming up for you so you can adapt well and be able to enjoy the experience of college and self growth and development instead of being overwhelmed, lonely, or unsure of how to climb out of a pile of school work and responsibilites.

Mulberry Tree Integrative Mental Health specializes in treating the whole person through Functional Psychiatry.

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.

Hi, I'm Molly! I am a mental health professional committed to helping individuals, families, and communities reach their greatest potential. I gravitate toward a person-centered, cognitive behavioral approach to therapy while tailoring sessions to meet the needs of my client, commonly utilizing the modality of Brainspotting to enhance session outcomes. I believe in meeting clients where they are at to support clients in reaching their goals, yet prioritize collaboration between clients, parents, and other service providers as needed or desired because no one should need to navigate changes or challenges alone. It is rewarding to see growth, healing, and learning from the various challenges life presents.

You want to feel confident, but down inside you are struggling to calm insecurities and anxieties. You may be fed up with the constant overthinking, feeling like you are lost in life, or those anxious thoughts that come at night. You might even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to understand why this is happening. You are ready to feel at ease and satisfied with your life. Most of all, you’re ready to feel confident about the choices you are making. You want to feel confident, but down inside you are struggling to calm insecurities and self-talk.

But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to understand why this is happening. You are ready to feel at ease and satisfied with your life. Most of all, you’re ready to feel confident and happy with yourself. Clients come to me looking for a therapist who can understand what they are going through, but also challenge them. Because therapy should be a place where you feel like you can be your true self, and learn skills to make improvements. Sessions with me are client centered. Together, we learn skills and improve self-esteem. And we always go at your pace. As an experienced therapist for college students, I believe that we are under an unbelievable amount of pressure. And yet we can still create the lives we envisioned for ourselves. You don’t have to continue feeling unsatisfied with yourself or your current situation, and you don’t have to do it alone.
