Grief Therapists in Eden Prairie, MN

Life can feel very uncertain and stressful at times. Are you struggling with increased fears and anxieties? Whether you are experiencing painful emotions, challenging relationships, or significant life events, we can work together to explore and identify what you need to achieve your personal goals and improve your overall quality of life.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is better understand your own story. Working through your past allows you to better understand your patterns, beliefs, and strengths to optimize where you are headed. Too often in life, we experience events that silence us, making it hard to know where to turn. In my office I work hard to create and hold spaces for my clients that are rooted in compassion, empathy, and safety. No matter where you are in your healing journey, I believe everyone has the potential to find more peace and live closer to their authentic beings.

Jade loves working with people who are struggling with anxiety, trauma, fear around death and dying, and specifically specializes in supporting people who are moving through traumatic forms of grief. She will strive to help you heal trauma, integrate losses, amplify joy in moments of despair, and work to uncover ways to honor the life lived. Jade also enjoys working with deconstructing (and possibly reconstructing) faith or spirituality. Jade supports all religions, no religion, and spiritual-but-not-religious.

I have experience working with children, teens, families, and couples regarding life transitions, anxiety, and mood disorders, grief/loss, and maternal mental health. While I mostly work with individuals 18+ now, I practice in a way that takes your relationships and their impact on you into account. I've seen people move through suffering, overcome challenges, gain clarity, and rediscover their authentic self and believe you can too. I work to empower as we explore and find what works best within your unique relationships, goals, and lifestyle. HOURS- Monday 12p-5p, Tuesday 9a-4p, Wednesday 9a-5p.

Grief is ever-present within our lives. Whether it’s an abrupt shift in our daily routine, a noticeable difference within ourselves, or a transition of our career, we experience it. We feel it after a change in our relationship, the loss of a pet, or, a heartbreaking death of a loved one. All change results in loss of some sort, and that which accompanies it, is grief. Grief can leave us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and scared. We feel exposed and vulnerable. We begin to question ourselves and the world we are in. Whatever your grief, know that I will honor it with attuned presence.

I have firsthand experience with how nerve-wracking it can be to begin therapy, whether it is for the first time or with a new therapist. I prioritize creating a safe and welcoming environment for clients. I believe that the depth of healing that is possible through therapy makes it a risk worth taking, but the approach and temperament of the therapist is undeniably important. That is why I strive to provide each client with the individualized support they need to make the changes they want to make in their life. With the proper support and resources, I believe that every person can seek the healing they desire.

Feel disconnected from others or dissatisfied with life? Feel like the promises that were made have not been kept? Many people feel disconnected right now and are struggling with finding a healthy balance to find connection again. I can help you with those daily struggles as well as facing painful issues from the past. My co-therapist is a 125lb therapy dog named Anya; her job is to help in whatever way works best for you.

I believe personal agency is key to finding meaning in distressing scenarios and growing from them. I use both Existential and solution-oriented approaches when engaging with clients and provide individuals, couples, and families with tools for self-awareness and self-empowerment through a mixture of theoretical models tailored to the client’s strengths and needs. I work to help clients establish more adaptive patterns of thinking with humor, empathy, and respect. While I will explore root causes of issues, I emphasize the importance of personal growth and identifying personal strengths.

For the last fourteen years my practice has been geared towards adults struggling with anxiety and panic, depression, relationship issues of all types, grief and loss, and past trauma. I also work a great deal with addiction and codependency in the family. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I see my job as helping people resolve these issues in collaborative, non-judgmental therapy sessions. I provide an environment where these problems can be explored and resolved. My approach is direct but respectful; giving clients practical skills and techniques that can change their lives.

Have you lost someone or something that is important to you? Is life presenting you with changes that are difficult to navigate? Are relationships hard for you? Has your past created difficulties that you just can't seem to separate from? Do you feel overwhelmed by the pressure to raise perfect kids and meet the needs of everyone around you?  Does your family need help? Are you a helper or therapist and need your own support? I am here, to connect with you and help you feel better.

I work with most clients, however, my focus is on relationships. I believe everything we do and person we engage with is a relationship, whether it's an intimate partner, friend, sibling, family or your relationship to self. I want to work with you if you are willing to engage the therapy process. Therapy is challenging and happens mostly outside of the one hour session a week (at most). I will meet you where you are at if you commit to do the hard work on your end.

I'd be a good fit if you're motivated, curious, open, flexible in thought, committed to the therapy process, and willing to do hard work. I'll work hard, too.

Clients respond very positively to my style as a therapist --- informal, empathetic, challenging, encouraging, educational, and collaborative. Typical individual and couples clients include young adults, mid-age, and elders. My work with clients frequently blends individual and couples therapy. I specialize in using the DISCERNMENT COUNSELING framework with 'mixed agenda' couples and the ideas of John / Julie GOTTMAN when working with couples who are wanting to enhance their relationship and co--parenting quality.
