Andretta Ward, LMFT

Psychotherapist
MN
Hi there, I'm Andretta! Hi, and welcome! I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than 10 years of experience supporting children, adults, couples, and families in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I provide a compassionate and collaborative space where clients can better understand their experiences, build practical coping skills, strengthen relation My focus I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families who may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. My areas of experience include depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and loss, mood disorders, emotion regulation, relationship and family conflict, and communication difficulties My approach My approach to therapy is person-centered, trauma-informed, strengths-based, and collaborative. I believe therapy should be tailored to your individual experiences, goals, culture, relationships, & personal strengths. During therapy, we may explore how past experiences, current stressors, thoughts, emotions, relationships, and behavioral patterns. My communication style My communication style is warm, respectful, compassionate, honest, and direct when appropriate. I understand that discussing personal experiences can feel uncomfortable, especially when you have not always felt heard, understood, or emotionally safe. I strive to create a calm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental environment where you can speak openly. My journey to mental healthcare I was drawn to becoming a therapist because I have always valued relationships, emotional connection, healing, and helping people feel less alone during difficult seasons of life. I believe that every person has a story, and behavior often makes more sense when it is understood within the context of that story.
