Meet Patrick

Patrick Parker, LMFT

Therapist

I’m so glad that you’ve taken the first step to make things better. This decision takes strength and courage, and I look forward to earning your trust.

You deserve to feel happy, calm and balanced. No matter the stressor, I’m confident that we can work together to find solutions. This process is not always easy, but I’ll be here for you every step of the way.

My approach:

It is my intent to create a therapeutic environment where you feel supported and encouraged, but also challenged and inspired. I hope to gain a deep understanding of who you are as a person and how you have navigated the world until this point. Once I understand who you are and what you have experienced, I’ll work alongside you to achieve your goals, find balance, and create real and lasting change.

My background:

My degrees include a Master of Arts in Marriage & Family Therapy from the Minnesota School of Professional Psychology and a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from the University of Minnesota, Morris. My early clinical experiences included in-home therapy with families as well as adolescents in Co-Occurring Intensive Outpatient therapy. I received specialized training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and have done extensive research and training in TeleMental Health.  Additionally, I served on the Minnesota Association for Marriage and Family Therapy from 2017 - 2019.  

I was born and raised in Northeast Minneapolis, where I still live with my partner Kaitlin. I enjoy riding my bike along the river, relaxing with family and friends and frequenting the many amazing restaurants in Minneapolis. I feel so fortunate to do the work that I do, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

When you’re ready, I’m here.
