Marriage Counseling Therapists in Byron, MN

Mercy's Place Counseling Services, LLC was opened in 2010 to provide mental health assessment and therapy services to clients with clinical excellence, compassion, and integrity. I have over 20 years of experience working individuals, couples, and families in variety of settings including in-home family-based therapy services. Client concerns are approached in a holistic manner, considering the various aspects of well-being (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and relational). Services are respectful, personalized for each individual/couple/family and are evidenced-based.

I've worked with individuals & families via CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing)/trauma focused therapy, family systems therapy, & play therapy for a variety of issues such as MH & addiction since 1998. I adjust/integrate therapeutic modalities holistically based on needs. I am respectful, laid back and humorous during tough work. I'm supportive & I encourage/challenge you to grow. It is difficult to change while health & wellness may require changes. I may use “tough love” while I am understanding and collaborative. Recovery/health requires action, growth, maturity, & accountability.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist offering individual, couple, and family therapy to adolescents (ages 14+) and adults. Using a variety of therapy models and treatment techniques, I customize the therapy experience to best meet my clients' needs, goals, and preferences.

Compassionate at her core, Deanne possesses a genuine and empathetic nature that allows her clients to feel seen, heard, and understood.

Relationships can be the most important things in our lives and they can also be our greatest struggles. Sex is another important topic-our own sexual selves as well as our sexual relationships with others. But we don't always have a lot of places to talk about these important issues. This is why I specialize in relationship and sex therapy. I am a Certified Sex Therapist through AASECT and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I also offer online classes for couples and individuals at classes.laurarademacher.com.

My name is Sonja Walker. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been working within clinical practice for over 12 years. My experiences are with clients dealing with grief and ambiguous loss, mental health, trauma, divorce, attachment with relationships, parenting, crisis management, inpatient mental health, outpatient/inpatient addiction treatment, transitional services for families dealing with incarceration or legal issues, sexuality concerns and multicultural family systems.

During my 10 years in this field, I have learned that I love working with people to improve their relationships with themselves and others. I work with couples who feel disconnected with each other to help them find their way back to their partner. I also help individuals who are in a difficult season of life heal, grow and find their way back to themselves. I seek to balance compassion and empathy with challenging my clients to grow helping them acknowledge the hard truths. I enjoy connecting with my clients in a very real, down-to-earth way and am honored to be invited into their stories.

I am a licensed psychologist and marriage and family therapist providing quality services to individuals, couples, and families.

I am also a qualified mediator and have completed certification in Integrative Medicine for Mental Health Professionals. I offer both teletherapy and in-person sessions with flexible appointment times.

My name is Andrea Walker, and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. I see individuals, couples, and families. I approach therapy using Internal Family Systems, Narrative, Somatic Experiencing, Emotion-Focused Therapy, and CBT. I see people with Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Relationship issues, Grief & Loss, and Personal Development. I approach therapy with a mix of Internal Family Systems (part of me wanted to eat the cake and part of me didn't), Narrative Therapy (creating our life story), and Somatic Experiencing (helping get us out of our heads and into our bodies).

If you are looking for a therapist who is authentic, accessible, curious, and compassionate, we might be a good match! I have immediate availability for couples & families. I offer a warm & judgement free space that focuses on strengths to help you achieve your goals. Whether you are new to therapy, or you've been exploring it for some time, I will walk along side you to support you on your journey. It's important that you know you are the expert on your own life & my focus is to meet you where you are at. We can work through life's challenges & give you practical tools for the present while reframing your perspective on the past.

I value the institution of marriage. Marriage is foundational to the well being of each family member. The marital sub-system is the most important system in the Family System. If the marital sub-system fails all the other Family systems fail. I tell couples one of the things they need, to build longevity into their marriage is to love the institution of marriage just a little bit more then they love each other. I seek to get to know the couple by taking a "dating & courtship" history. Then I want to know "why now" why did you make the appointment.

I believe we all have changes that can be made to live better. Whether you are considering therapy for the first time or coming back now is the time to take the steps to make those changes. Many aspects of life can be challenging, especially over these last years. Therapy can be important in understanding what areas need adjustment, ways to make lasting change, and to have someone along who wants to support you through it all.
