Judy Thomas, LICSW

Psychotherapist
MN
Hi there, I'm Judy! Your brain isn't running the wrong OS -it just needs better scripts. I work with neurodivergent teens and adults on anxiety, burnout, and self-doubt using CBT, DBT, ACT, and IFS. No toxic positivity - just honest conversation and tools that actually fit how your brain works. My focus I specialize in neurodivergent teens and adults, including those newly or late diagnosed with ADHD or autism. If burnout, masking, or executive dysfunction have worn you down, you'll find understanding here, not judgment. We'll build practical strategies suited to your brain, not against it. My approach My approach is practical and down to earth. I'll meet you where you are, without judgment, and help you turn insight into action. Expect compassion paired with real problem-solving, not just talk. We'll focus on where you're headed, not just where you've been, so change actually sticks. My communication style Expect a positive, curious conversation. I lean heavily on analogies and metaphors to make hard concepts click, and I ask a lot of clarifying questions so I truly understand you. I'm supportive, but I'll gently call you out when you're not being honest with yourself. That's how real change happens. My journey to mental healthcare Since childhood, I was the friend group's sage advice-giver, driven by a need to understand my own mind and help others. I learned that internal and external systems interact, that many personal struggles are actually systemic, and that mind and body are one unit. I believe everyone can grow, change, and heal. My goals for you We begin by naming your desired outcome and the pain point you want resolved first. Then we assess strengths and resources, and identify skill gaps to fill with education. Along the way, we tackle trauma, distortions, negative self-talk, bad narratives, and old habits. I work with you, not at you.
