HEALING IS OUR COMMITMENT
Managing Behaviors, Strengthening Relationships, Healing from Stress and Trauma.
Seeking help for compulsive behaviors is key to regaining control. Professional support helps uncover root causes, develop coping strategies, and break harmful cycles, leading to lasting positive change and improved well-being.
The "Harvard Study of Adult Development" shows that people with strong, positive relationships live longer and enjoy better health, highlighting the importance of meaningful connections for longevity.
Healing from anxiety and trauma empowers individuals to manage distress and build resilience. Professional guidance offers tools to navigate emotions, regain safety, and enhance well-being.

WADE BERGQUIST
PRINCIPAL
Specializing in behavior/substance compulsion, couples therapy, trauma, and anxiety.
As an experienced psychotherapist, I bring expertise and empathy to my practice. With a Master of Arts in Counseling and Psychology from Saint Mary's University of Minnesota (graduating Cum Laude) and 30 years of experience in the wellness community, I specialize in addressing behavioral compulsion. I have also completed comprehensive substance counseling coursework, enhancing my knowledge. My experience provides me with profound insights into the challenges of compulsive behaviors.
Additionally, I have received training in the Pragmatic-Experiential Method for Improving Relationships ("The PEX Method"). This approach incorporates recent neurobiology and relationship science advancements, providing practical strategies to strengthen connections. I am deeply passionate about couples therapy because I believe that all mental health begins at home, and a healthy home is rooted in strong relationships among primary caregivers. By fostering healthy connections, we can create a nurturing environment that supports the well-being of everyone involved, ultimately leading to improved mental health for families as a whole.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in cognitive-behavioral therapy and psychodynamic theory, which I adapt to meet each client's unique needs. I am deeply committed to creating a safe and nonjudgmental environment where individuals can explore their challenges, foster self-discovery, and facilitate meaningful change. Whether you are addressing specific issues or seeking personal growth, I am dedicated to supporting you on your journey toward wellness and fulfillment.
