Not all Minnesota therapists are meant to work with all clients.

Sure, you need someone who has expertise in working with your concern, but it’s also important to have a good personality fit with your therapist.

To assist you in determining if we would be a good fit for one another, some things to consider are listed below.

Clients who benefit from working with a Hopkins, MN psychologist the most are people who are:

  • willing to explore what it might be like to think, feel, or behave in different ways, even if that means you aren’t actually ready to make a change

  • craving living more confidently and boldly (because that’s how I roll)

  • okay with being asked questions, given feedback, and exploring other perspectives

  • appreciative of a conversational, no-B.S. approach

  • interested in celebrating the small wins along the way

  • open to colorful language, including the occasional swear word

  • Start by emailing me or filling out my contact form here so we can set up a free 20-minute phone consultation.

  • Typical therapy sessions are 55 minutes long.

  • No, I do not accept insurance in my practice. I can, however, provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance carrier for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Ask me for more information if you’re interested in this option.

  • I recommend completing a free phone consultation just to talk out options with a professional. If you decide you are not interested in therapy after talking to me, you’re not out of anything.

  • Hiring a psychologist can be done either through the website of the psychologist you would like to work with or via a referral from your regular doctor or mental health professional. Make sure to research the psychologist you're considering, review their credentials, and consider your financial needs. Set up an initial consultation with the psychologist to discuss your concerns and decide if they are a good fit for you. Feel free to reach out to me, Dr. Rachel, at Better Balance Psychology.

  • I offer a range of services including stress management support, healthy boundaries counseling, and perfectionism therapy. If you're unsure if I can help you, get in touch and a simple conversation can help clear that up.
