Rachel has been providing services in the local area since 2022. She received her master's in art therapy and counseling from Southwestern College and New Earth Institute in Santa Fe, New Mexico. She enjoys working with a broad age range of clients, often finding herself working with many adolescents. Rachel helps her clients by recognizing and valuing their uniqueness, understanding how ideas affect their emotions, assisting in transforming unhealthy behaviors, and providing a secure, trusting environment conducive to healing, self-acceptance, and self-love.

My vocational calling is to support the psychological and spiritual well-being of children, adolescents, and adults within adoptive, foster, and kinship family systems. My specialties involve working with individuals navigating adoption- and foster-related transitions, grief and loss, identity development, early and complex trauma, and attachment disruptions, as well as developmental differences and relational challenges. I approach this work with an understanding of how these experiences unfold across the lifespan and within the context of family and relational systems.

I have worked in the social service system for over 25 years with children and families prior to becoming a licensed clinical counselor. I am very familiar with the child protection and court system. I have attended trainings with the MN Pride Network for LGBTQ population. I have worked with adults and children on the autism spectrum. I spent 10 years working with children and birth, adoptive and foster families in the child protection system.

Cam’s personal experience as an international adoptee from Korea informs and inspires his current professional work. He formed his own private practice, Therapy Redeemed, in 2018, to raise awareness and respond to the mental health needs of adoptees and their families wherever they may be in their adoption journey. Cam is PACC certified and registered as an accredited service provider through TAC via Center for Adoption Support and Education. He is also a vetted clinician with Foster Adopt MN.

Jamie Rieser has worked with children and families in a variety of settings for over 20 years including in children’s day treatment, case management, community mental health, ECFE parent education, school-based counseling, and outpatient mental health. She currently provides office-based mental health therapy services in her private practice. She works with infant/early childhood populations in the family context, children, adults, and families using attachment-based therapy, play-based interventions, CBT, and parenting education.

I see primarily BIPOC and make space to explore the impact of oppressive systems on identity. I have a special interest in mixed/multiracial people, transracial and transnational adoptees, and Queer & Trans BIPOC. My clinical specialty is complex trauma and dissociation for adults 18+, so I refer to other therapists for children, families, and couples.

Born outside of Seoul, South Korea, I am a transracial, transnational adoptee.

I love working with transracial, transnational adopted individuals (age 17+) who grew up questioning their racial and ethnic identities and wondered, “does anyone else feel this way?”

I draw from a variety of modalities, chief among them being relational (and relatable). I take a developmental and holistic approach to healing, including awareness of developmental milestones on our lives and the lingering impact on our relationships and connections to self and others.
