Everyone’s mental health journey looks and feels different. Like you, I’ve had my own journey. This means you can trust me when I say that I know it is hard. I know that it can be scary and I know that you need to feel safe in this process. I am here to walk next to you, to cheer you on and sometimes to help pick you up when you fall. I am honored that my job allows me to help others on their journey and it is a responsibility that I take very seriously. I enjoy working with adolescents, adults and couples. I work with my clients to treat depression, anxiety and trauma. I also work with clients to process issues related to divorce, parenting, relationship concerns, life changes and the challenges that come with having a family member in the military or law enforcement. My experience treating PTSD includes working in a partial hospitalization program and being certified in Prolonged Exposure Therapy. I believe that it is important that my clients feel I am a good fit for them both in my treatment approach and in personality, that is why I offer a free 20 minute consultation before starting therapy.

Shea Counseling is committed to serving clients with a specialization in eating disorders, however we also have great experience working with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship struggles, family struggles, identity, LGBTQ+, emotion regulation, and codependency.

Are you struggling in your relationships? Has anxiety or depression made it difficult to get through the day? Are you just not feeling like yourself or doing the things you used to enjoy? My name is Bridget Mozina, MA, LMFT, and I believe sometimes life throws us challenges, and therapy can be helpful in navigating through those. I enjoy supporting people with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, perfectionism, and self-harm. Along with a warm and accepting environment, I also bring humor and authenticity. I help people discover their strengths, gain insight, and develop the tools for lasting change.

I consider all human complexity from a holistic point of view. A holistic perspective embraces the interconnections between the body, the mind, and the spirit. All our behaviors and symptoms have a purpose. My core theoretical orientation is trauma-informed Adlerian Psychotherapy. I practice CBT, DBT, MBSR, and EMDR, among a multitude of other Evidence-Based interventions. My specialization focus is trauma and I have multiple advanced hours of training making me equipped to help you dig in the roots of your most pesky daily weeds, when and if you are ready to roll your sleeves up. In my practice of Attachment-based EMDR, I have seen profound changes in clients' healing and personal growth. Flash technique is another form of EMDR intervention known for being much gentler and softer when processing extremely hard memories. My therapeutic style is best described as direct yet compassionate, with a holistic and systems-view perspective. I do use humor and I also believe in the cathartic nature of a good ugly cry. One of the reasons I decided to pursue my lifelong passion of helping people therapeutically (too mature for their age or adults still young at heart) on a professional level was to provide validation, unconditional support, guidance, and skills that my younger self needed and wanted. Are you a first-generation college student struggling to navigate the educational system without the emotional and fiscal support you deserve? Are you struggling to navigate the competing demands of educational, cultural, societal, and self-imposed expectations? Are you feeling overwhelmed? I AM here to help! If you are contemplating throwing the towel or about to, before you give in to the "overwhelm," I encourage you to give therapy a try. Truly, what do you have to lose? I am also a Mom who loves working with other mothers and women as they navigate the challenges of parenting, post-partum concerns, divorce, pregnancy loss, and the emotional impact of fertility issues. My personal experiences have informed my additional strength in working with First Generation Immigrants as they/we navigate the process of acculturation. I continue to be inspired by the healing power of human connection in the therapeutic process. I look forward to hearing from you and starting your journey of self-discovery and healing. I provide therapy in English and Bulgarian.

Accepting New Clients! If your mind never stops, you feel stuck or lost, you're hard on yourself, boundaries feel difficult, people-pleasing is getting in the way of your peace, ADHD or executive dysfunction is impacting motivation, timeliness, or emotional regulation, or life changes feel overwhelming, we may be a good fit. Therapy with me is a space where messy thoughts, swear words, and laughter are all welcome. I bring curiosity, openness, occasional dark humor, some nerdy interests (if that's your thing), accountability when needed, and zero judgment.

Hey there! I'm Lorene, and I'm passionate about helping you navigate life's ups and downs, empowering you to achieve real, lasting growth. My approach is rooted in cognitive-behavioral therapy and internal family systems theory, but I always make sure our sessions feel personal, creative, and tailored to you. Using art in therapy is one of my favorite ways to help you express yourself and discover new paths to healing. I've spent time both in behavioral health roles and in corporate management, so I get how challenging it can be balancing school, work, relationships, and self-care. My goal is to provide a safe, inclusive, and supportive space where you feel understood and valued, no matter your background. Mental health has always been close to my heart, especially since I didn't see enough counselors who looked like me growing up. That’s why I’m committed to staying updated with the latest developments in mental health and addiction counseling.

Life's unpredictability and challenges can lead to uncertainty, fear, and stress. Many clients who seek my psychotherapy services experience stress, anxiety, or depression, often stemming from life transitions, grief, or struggles with interpersonal relationships and self-identity. I have over 6 years of experience treating a wide range of mental health issues and have work with college students dealing with homesickness and veterans. I utilize evidence-based approaches and humor in sessions to foster positivity, confidence, and hope. In our sessions, clients find a welcoming, supportive, and comfortable environment where they feel understood and heard. I believe building rapport and trust with my clients is imperative to the therapeutic work, relationship, and achieving set goals in therapy. Reach out to me to see if we may be a good fit to work together.

I’m a good fit for college students who feel overwhelmed or unsure about what comes next. Maybe you’re dealing with academic stress, anxiety, or a breakup, or you’ve just been running on autopilot trying to get through the week. In our work together, we’ll find ways to handle tough emotions without shutting down and build habits that help you feel more grounded and true to yourself. I’m committed to creating an inclusive space where students of all identities and backgrounds can show up as they are. You don’t have to figure everything out alone.

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
