I like to meet my clients “where they’re at”, meaning I’ll start wherever you need to. It is sacred to me that I provide a therapeutic setting where it is safe for you to be vulnerable and real- with no judgement or criticism. Within this safe space, we'll work together to find some clarity with your struggles or brokeness. "Courage is not having the strength to go on, it is going on when you don't have the strength". -Eleanor Roosevelt

You don't have to do this alone. Start your healing journey now. Unless you try to do things differently, nothing will change.

You're taking the first difficult step towards change by vetting therapists, and I'd be honored to join you on each of the subsequent steps. I've been a clinical therapist for 12 years and employ a variety of tools to help you meet your goals. I'm especially drawn to and skilled in working with folk in transition, whether this relates to your age (preteen, teen or adult), relationship status, identity exploration or shifting life circumstances.

Kris Anderson

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 8.2 mi away • White Bear Lake, MN


I believe that peace on earth starts with peace in the home. I'm able to help adults, couples, and families find this peace by using healthy communication techniques, recognize their emotions and heal from past pain. This helps clients foster deeper connections in their relationships and within themselves. I work with couples needing support with communication, conflict resolution and gaining trust. I help parents establish loving limits with their children to help them learn while also maintaining connection. I can help clients cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, and postpartum.

Gwen Scherr

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 9.2 mi away • Minneapolis, MN


Hello! I’m Gwen Scherr, a marriage and family therapist who supports couples, families, and individuals across the lifespan who may be tired of just coping through life and are ready to move toward deeper healing and growth. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship issues, family issues, identity concerns, and the stress that can come from feeling disconnected from yourself or the people you love. Many of the people I work with want more than symptom relief — they want to feel more grounded, understood, and able to thrive in their relationships and daily lives. My goal is to offer a supportive space where you can slow down, feel seen, and begin moving toward a fuller, more authentic life!

Therapist

Forest Floor Therapy is a neurodivergent and identity affirming therapy practice for adults navigating ADHD, autism, anxiety, burnout, and life transitions. At a time when the weight of the world is so heavy, the Forest Floor offers us a space of stillness to slow down, take deep breaths, be seen, feel heard, and reconnect. I am also trained in WPATH Standards of Care and comfortable writing letters of support for those seeking identity affirming medical care.

I’m active and engaged in sessions. You can expect warmth, curiosity, and honesty, not a blank stare or a clipboard. Sometimes therapy here looks like slowing down and grounding. Sometimes it looks like learning new skills. Sometimes it looks like gently challenging old beliefs that no longer serve you. There’s room for humor, swearing, pauses, and figuring things out in real time.
