I believe in a holistic approach to health and healing. Through an integration of several theories and ideologies, I work with individuals, couples and  any constellation of family members, specializing in relational therapy.

The person we are today has much to do with the relationships we've experienced throughout the course of our lives. Each person has a unique story to tell and that story is a critical component of who we are and guides who we become. My goal is to create a safe space with the right conditions for change where each client or relationship is able to increase awareness and find a lasting impact.

There can be many underlying causes of mental, emotional, and psychological symptoms. Through the relationships built, my goal is to help you increase life satisfaction and overall wellness.

I understand life can happen to us, without warning, and without consent. While the ability to choose has been stripped from those experiences, I firmly believe we have a choice in how we respond to them. As such, I offer individual psychotherapy and believe the key to effective therapy is the relationship built between client and therapist. It’s not easy to ask for help, and in recognizing that, I strive to offer a safe, empathic, and non-judgmental environment to foster healing. I work collaboratively to cultivate an atmosphere of curiosity and further deepen client’s understanding of the experiences that have guided their lives; some of which continue to cause distress and contribute to life feeling intolerable at times. I work with a breadth of issues, including co-occurring addiction and mental health issues, and I make every effort to tailor evidence-based treatments to fit the individual needs of each client. I incorporate all aspects of a person’s being - emotional, mental, physical, spiritual, and cultural - using an integrated approach to therapy that draws from relational, psychodynamic, emotion-focused, and person-centered theories.

Additionally, I provide comprehensive psychological and neuropsychological assessment services specializing in adult and geriatric populations with a particular interest in neurodegenerative disorders. Having served in the field of psychology for over a decade, I have a long history of providing individual psychotherapy in a highly relational fashion, which is integrated into my approach for assessment. The mutual end goal for assessment is most often to provide as much clarity and insight into an individual’s strengths, behaviors, condition, etc. emphasizing tailored treatment recommendations to assist people on how to best move forward with next steps.​

​

I began my career as a licensed alcohol and drug counselor working in both outpatient and residential chemical dependency treatment centers nearly 15 years ago. I completed my Doctorate in Psychology (PsyD) at The Chicago School of Professional Psychology in 2021 and further specialized in Neuropsychology through a 2-year fellowship, of which I completed in 2023. I have experience with neuropsychological, psychological, and therapeutic assessments as well as therapeutic services in a Veterans Affair health care system, outpatient and inpatient co-occurring treatment facilities, group private practice, and a college counseling center.​

As Office Manager at Bold North, I help create a welcoming, organized, and supportive experience for both clients and clinicians. I oversee day-to-day operations with a focus on clear communication, thoughtful systems, and making sure the practice runs smoothly behind the scenes so our team can focus on providing excellent care.

Building genuine relationships and helping people feel seen, supported, and cared for has always been at the center of my work. I value creating meaningful connections and strive to bring warmth, approachability, and consistency to every interaction — whether I’m helping a client navigate the intake process or supporting our clinicians throughout the day.

My background in leadership and service-centered work has strengthened my ability to problem-solve, multitask, and create positive, people-centered environments. At Bold North, I strive to be a consistent, approachable presence who helps clients feel comfortable from their very first interaction with our practice!

Helping people find meaning and purpose in their lives is at the heart of what I do. My approach
to health and wellness is holistic and collaborative, drawing on a range of techniques tailored to
each clients unique needs.

I believe in the inherent goodness in people, in their capacity to make healthy choices, discover
their own worth, and build lives that feel meaningful. Through an integrative approach, I meet clients where they are in the present moment while also helping them understand how their past has shaped them. We work together to understand what led them to seek support and build a path forward that feels authentic and sustainable. At the core of this work is trust; I believe a strong, trusting relationship is essential to meaningful therapeutic change.

I have supported clients through a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety,
relationship dynamics, substance abuse, bipolar disorder, eating disorders and body image
challenges, and grief and loss. I have worked with individuals moving through significant
transitional periods in their lives, including emerging adults navigating questions of identity,
career, and relationships, along with the broader challenges of adulthood. I have supported
individuals navigating divorce, from the early, often difficult process of deciding whether to stay
or leave, to helping them find peace with that decision and move forward once the decision is
made. My experience also includes providing individual and group therapy at an intensive
outpatient treatment center serving people with substance use and co-occurring mental health
disorders.

Alongside my clinical work, I have been a Certified Fitness Trainer since 2008, an experience
that continues to inform my work as a therapist. I see a real parallel between the two: both
involve empowering people to push past the mental obstacles that keep them from making
lasting change. I hold a Masters Degree in Counseling and Psychological Services, with a
specialization in Addiction Studies, from Saint Marys University of Minnesota, and I am a
Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor.

I currently work with adults, both individuals and couples, who are navigating life transitions, identity and self-exploration, sexuality, relationships, life stressors, trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, and depression. I believe therapy is a collaborative and deeply relational process, and I strive to create a space where you can feel seen, understood, and supported as you explore what matters most to you. My approach is person-centered and grounded in curiosity, compassion, and openness, with a deep appreciation for the many individual and community-based pathways to healing.

My perspective as a therapist have most importantly been shaped by elders, my experiences in life, various mediums of art, and those I have been in community with. Along with my experience as a former school administrator, group fitness coach of 10 years, and 200-hour yoga-certified instructor. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the ways our relationships, communities, bodies, and environments can influence our well-being.

Together, we can cultivate a therapeutic space that feels engaging, thought-provoking, and responsive to your evolving needs. My practice is informed by Anchored Relational (AIR-Network), Relational-Cultural Theory, Narrative Therapy, Trauma-Informed Care, and Internal Family Systems.

Relationships can be one of the most meaningful parts of life—but they can also be one of the
most challenging. I specialize in working with couples and partners who want to deepen
connection, navigate conflict more effectively, and build relationships grounded in trust,
emotional safety, and mutual understanding. I work with couples across a range of relationship
structures, including monogamous and polyamorous partnerships, and strive to create a space where all relationship identities are respected and supported.

My therapeutic approach is integrative and relational, drawing from Psychodynamic
Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
(ACT), and Solution-Focused Therapy. I also incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
skills to support emotional regulation, communication, and navigating difficult moments with greater awareness and intention.

In couples therapy, I focus on helping partners understand and shift reactive patterns, improve
communication, and repair after conflict so they can foster deeper emotional intimacy. My goal
is to create a balanced, non-judgmental space where both partners feel heard and understood
while we work collaboratively to strengthen the relationship.

With over a decade of experience in community mental health, I bring a compassionate and
collaborative approach to therapy. Whether you’re navigating recurring conflict, rebuilding trust, or seeking greater connection, therapy can offer a space for clarity, growth, and meaningful
change.

Above all I believe in the power of connection and community. In a culture that pushes us towards self-sufficiency and independence, we can forget there is nothing wrong with needing or seeking help. I believe it is a sign of strength and resilience to take that step.

My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, seen, and accepted with whatever you are facing in life. Though I am currently focused on training in psychological assessment, it is my priority to create a warm, comfortable, and affirming space where you feel safe to be yourself. I feel passionately about social justice issues, and do my best to ground my training and work in values that align with antiracism, humility, and curiosity. Together we will build a better understanding of who you are and develop strategies to improve your functioning and overall well-being. 

*Jenny is currently pursuing her PsyD (Doctor of Clinical Psychology) degree at Augsburg University in Minneapolis, and is working under the licensed supervision of Dr. Caileigh Peters, PsyD, LP

Shame is a skilled liar, and it can falsely convince us that we're better off facing our struggles alone. But it’s everyone’s first time being a human, and no one has it all figured out!

​

I am passionate about working with folks whose voices are all too often silenced: justice-involved, adjusting to life after incarceration, navigating addictive or compulsive behavior patterns, feeling disconnected from their authentic selves, seeking personal meaning in life, or recovering after religious, domestic, or sexual abuse, harm, or trauma. You deserve to be affirmed and supported on the courageous path of healing and self-discovery.

​

Therapy with me is collaborative and grounded in compassion, empathy, and curiosity. I offer an inclusive environment in which clients experience me as warm, authentic, and humorous when appropriate. My approach is person-centered with elements of narrative, feminist, existential, cognitive-behavioral, and dialectical-behavioral therapies.

​

Finding the right therapist can be an overwhelming and vulnerable process. You are the expert on yourself and your needs, and you deserve a therapist who honors that expertise. I invite you to reach out and schedule a 15-minute consultation to explore how we can work together to make the changes you desire. I look forward to hearing from you!

*Chelsea has completed her MSE at UW-Superior. She is working under the licensed supervision of Rachel Herr, MA, LPCC.

The courage to seek a therapist is huge, and I honor that by creating a space you feel seen, heard, and understood. I believe that with the right support, everyone can overcome challenges. I approach counseling with intention, adapting to what you need at the moment. I can be warm
and direct, and I believe in the power of humor when it’s appropriate. My goal is to help you work toward living your best life, at your own pace. Together, we’ll explore your inner world, gaining a deeper understanding of the different parts of yourself and helping you better recognize
and understand your emotions.

My approach is person-centered and being journey oriented, meaning I believe in meeting you where you are and supporting you every step of the way. I am particularly interested in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Solution-Focused, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy.
I have a strong background working with individuals and families, and I’m passionate about helping people show up as their authentic selves.

*Keyana has completed her master’s degree at Saint Mary’s University in Minneapolis and is working under the licensed supervision of Rachel Herr, MA, LPCC.

I believe that therapy offers an opportunity to discover and nurture the unique conditions that you need to grow. Feeling seen and heard without judgement is important, and taking time to courageously explore your inner world can be a powerful step towards building a richer life. In
therapy, I hope to help you connect with your instincts, strengthen your relationship with yourself and others, discover what makes your life feel meaningful, and solidify your sense of self-acceptance and belonging in the world.

Drawing primarily from psychodynamic and humanistic theories, I believe that an attuned and caring therapeutic relationship is foundational to the work of therapy. Together, we can explore
how your past may be shaping your current experience of life and take time to sort out the perspectives that feel congruent with who you are today. I also appreciate the potency of the present moment and will help you explore reactions, emotions, and relational patterns as they
arise in real time. I believe that growth can unfold naturally when we take time to understand who we are, engage our whole selves, and more fully inhabit the present moment.

Values that I bring to my work include curiosity, empathy, creativity, and an open mind. Having studied literature as an undergrad, I enjoy working with stories, metaphors, dreams, and patterns. Making the choice to confront painful topics can be quite challenging at times, and more than anything I strive to create a space where you can feel accepted along the way.

*Elizabeth is currently pursuing a master’s degree in Counseling & Psychological Services at Saint Mary’s University of Minnesota and is working under the licensed supervision of Rachel Herr, MA, LPCC.

Life takes us to many unexpected destinations, and I'm glad you have landed here. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health and wellness, and am passionate about collaboration, both with clients and other health professionals, in therapy and psychological assessment.

No matter why you are here, I want to ensure you are feeling heard, seen, and respected. My approach to therapy is humanistic and dynamic, meaning I want to focus on meeting you where you are at. I provide therapy and assessment services and look forward to meeting you and finding the answers you seek!

​

*Emma is currently pursuing her PsyD (Doctor of Clinical Psychology) degree at Augsburg University in Minneapolis, and is working under the licensed supervision of Dr. Caileigh Peters, PsyD, LP

Life can be loud, chaotic, and overwhelming. Something powerful happens when we slow down enough to get quiet. My work is rooted in creating that stillness: a calm, grounding space where you can feel truly seen, heard, and unhurried. Within that quiet, you have room to look honestly at everything that has shaped you. The relationships we carry, the communities we belong to, the beliefs and experiences woven into who we
are; all of it belongs here.

Together, we'll explore the many layers of who you are and how you came to be. I'm drawn to looking closely at the forces that have influenced you, not to place blame or dwell in the past, but to understand how they live in you today and what might be ready to shift. I take a holistic and integrative approach grounded in humanistic and narrative principles, tailored to each person I work with. I focus on strengthening your relationship with yourself as the foundation of healing, reconnecting you with your inner wisdom and intuition, and challenging the narratives that may no longer be serving you.

I work with adults of all ages navigating depression, life transitions, anxiety, grief, and
the everyday weight of a demanding world. I believe the part of you that is ready to grow
brought you here. Something in you already knows the way forward, even if it doesn't
feel that way yet. The path often begins with feeling less alone in where you are right
now. The goal isn't to become someone new. It is to help you come home to who you
already are.​

*Lezley is working toward her LPCC under the licensed supervision of Dr. Caileigh Peters & Rachel Herr, MA, LPCC.

​

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, but it can also be an opportunity to work through life’s challenges without judgement. My goal is to create a welcoming and judgement-free space for clients to work through struggles and talk about the hard questions. I aim to make therapy collaborative and focused on your goals. 

​

My approach to therapy is person-centered, and I incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to move you closer to achieving your goals and creating the life you want for yourself. It is important to me to support a client’s autonomy, choice, and empowerment. I want to ensure you feel heard and supported, and I look forward to meeting you where you’re at on your journey.

*Grace is currently pursuing her LPCC licensure under the direct supervision of Rachel Herr, MA, LPCC.

I believe every individual brings a unique perspective, life experience, and set of challenges that deserve to be understood within the context of their own story. My approach to assessment is grounded in kindness, compassion, respect, and the belief that people do the best they can with the tools and resources available to them. I strive to create a welcoming, collaborative, and nonjudgmental environment where individuals feel comfortable sharing their experiences.

I take a person-centered approach to assessment, recognizing each individual's unique strengths, needs, and goals. By approaching the evaluation process with empathy, genuine curiosity, and without judgment or blame, I aim to provide meaningful, comprehensive assessments that foster greater understanding and support individuals in reaching their goals.

*Raelynn is currently pursuing her PsyD (Doctor of Clinical Psychology) degree at Augsburg University in Minneapolis, and is working under the licensed supervision of Dr. Caileigh Peters, PsyD, LP

Each person deserves to live in alignment with their values and trust their own innate knowing. I believe clients are the experts on their own lives, and I approach therapy as a collaborative space for curiosity, compassion, and meaningful growth.

My work is grounded in relational, psychodynamic, existential, and liberation-informed perspectives, recognizing that our relationships, lived experiences, and the systems we navigate all shape our stories. Together, we'll explore patterns and protective strategies that may no longer serve you, deepen self-understanding, and cultivate greater agency, authenticity, and connection. I integrate trauma-informed approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), parts work, mindfulness, somatic interventions, and strengths-based practices, to support your unique goals.

I work with individuals ages 16 and older, as well as straight and queer couples. I have a special interest in working with queer and transgender clients and welcome people from all backgrounds. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, PTSD, religious and spiritual trauma, sexual trauma, emotional trauma, systemic trauma, grief, chronic pain, caregiver exhaustion, parenting challenges, and perinatal mental health. I also welcome conversations about your relationship with substances through a nonjudgmental, harm-reduction lens. While I do not provide specialized addiction treatment, I believe exploring substance use can be an important part of understanding your values, coping strategies, and overall well-being.

My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, understood, and empowered to build a life that feels authentic, connected, and meaningful.
 

*Jordann is currently pursuing her LPCC licensure under the direct supervision of Rachel Herr, MA, LPCC.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Theory and incorporates aspects of Psychodynamic and Person-Centered theories. Foundational in my work is the exploration of the connection between our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. As my clients develop a deeper understanding of these connections within their inner world, I help them begin to identify and practice strategies to support change and growth in their day-to-day lives. I strive to help us build a lens of curiosity toward our past experiences and how they shape the ways we approach life and cope with change and challenge.

My background includes working at a correctional facility, where I conducted psychological evaluations with individuals who were incarcerated. Additionally, I have provided both individual and group therapy to individuals in substance use treatment, working through addiction alongside depression, anxiety, past trauma, and other concerns. Those experiences taught me a lot about how someone's history and circumstances can shape the challenges they're facing, and how much it matters to meet people where they are.

These combined experiences shape my current focus, where I provide psychological and neuropsychological assessments, with a strong interest in traumatic brain injuries, helping clients and their care teams gain clarity around diagnosis, cognitive functioning, and next steps for treatment. 

Collaboration is central to how I practice. From our first meeting, I want to understand your hopes and goals so we can build a plan together toward the changes you're looking for. My aim is to create a space grounded in empathy, respect, and warmth for every client I work with.

I earned my master's degree in psychology from Arizona State University and am currently completing my Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) at Augsburg University. I work under the licensed supervision of Dr. Caileigh Peters, PsyD, LP

I believe psychological assessment is most meaningful when it helps individuals better understand themselves, including their strengths, challenges, and the experiences that have shaped them. While a diagnosis can be an important part of the process, I view assessment as an opportunity to help individuals gain a deeper understanding of themselves and identify practical next steps. My goal is to create a collaborative, supportive environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout their assessment journey.

​

I approach assessment with curiosity, compassion, and the understanding that every person has a unique story. Whether someone is seeking answers about attention, learning, mood, personality, or cognitive functioning, I strive to provide evaluations that are thorough, evidence-based, and tailored to each individual's needs. I believe that meaningful feedback should be clear, practical, and centered on helping clients move forward with greater confidence and self-understanding.

*Alicia is currently pursuing her PsyD (Doctor of Clinical Psychology) degree at Augsburg University in Minneapolis, and is working under the licensed supervision of Dr. Caileigh Peters, PsyD, LP

Life can be unpredictable, overwhelming, and confusing. We often feel pressured to navigate these ups and downs with independence and unwavering composure. In my work, I strive to create a non-judgemental space where you can step away from the pressure of having it all figured out, instead finding a grounding place where you can slow down, process the unexpected twists and turns of life, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself. 

I approach each individual with an open-mind, empathy, and curiosity, while recognizing that no one knows your experiences more deeply than you do. Together, we will work together to better understand how all of these experiences have brought you to this very moment. My goal is to collaborate with you to ensure our work together aligns with the support you are seeking, creating awareness of the strengths, wisdom, and resilience you already have to create a life that feels authentic and fulfilling to you. 

My approach is humanistic, collaborative, and flexible, meaning above all else, I believe in the power of human connection. My favorite part of my graduate training has been the privilege to observe the power in two humans sitting together, witnessing the struggles and beauties of humanity in each other. To me, true healing starts when someone feels truly seen and understood for the unique person they are. 

Seeking support takes courage. Taking this step shows your commendable resilience and dedication to improving your own well-being. I currently provide counseling services at Bold North Mental Health Services and I look forward to meeting you!
