Psychiatrist
Rochester, MN

Hello! I’m Dr. Matheus Marques, a board-certified psychiatrist specialized in mood disorders, with particular expertise in treatment-resistant depression. I believe in partnering with my patients to develop personalized treatment plans that honor both the latest scientific evidence and each person’s unique circumstances and goals. With over a decade of experience in medicine, I have completed five years of specialized psychiatric training at Mayo Clinic including both my psychiatry residency (where I served as chief resident) and fellowship in mood disorders. At Mayo Clinic, I helped develop institutional consensus for managing treatment-resistant depression, work that ensures I bring the most current approaches to complex cases. I’ve also completed specialized training in reproductive psychiatry through the National Curriculum in Reproductive Psychiatry and continue to participate in their ongoing supervision program. Whether you’re seeking help for depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, treatment-resistant conditions, or mental health needs during pregnancy and postpartum, my goal is to provide thorough, individualized care grounded in the latest research. My practice welcomes patients from across Minnesota, and I look forward to working together to develop a treatment approach that works for you.

Licensed Professional Counselor
Shorewood, MN

Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to learn more about me! I have over 15 years of experience working in the mental health field in various settings--including inpatient, outpatient, inner-city clinics, schools, and private practice. I specialize in the treatment of Anxiety Disorders and ADHD. My passion for the field stems from my personal experience with it--overcoming a debilitating anxiety/panic disorder and accompanying depression. It was the scariest, most difficult time of my life. However, I made a promise to myself that if one day I could overcome my debilitating anxiety, then I would help others to do the same. I approach every client uniquely and use an eclectic, person-centered, integrative, evidence-based model as well as the ACT model. We will set overall goals that will not only help you with what you are struggling with mentally but also aid you in reaching better health all-around. When ready, I will challenge you and help set weekly goals to work towards. Aside from the omnipresent stigma, the process of getting help can be overwhelming and exhausting, leaving one feeling frustrated and lonely. However, I also know how life-changing it can be to find the right help. You only get this one life and I am here to help you live it in your most authentic, fully expressed, ideal way. I look forward to connecting!

Psychiatrist
Dallas, TX

I am a board-certified psychiatrist and Diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. For me, being a physician is more than a profession—it is a vocation to help indviduals flourish. My practice is devoted to students and young adults seeking thoughtful, individualized psychiatric care that extends beyond symptom relief. I provide comprehensive evaluations that consider medical, nutritional, lifestyle, and psychological factors—including laboratory testing when clinically appropriate—to identify the contributors to emotional and cognitive health. I also specialize in evidence-based de-prescribing for patients who wish to reduce or discontinue psychiatric medications for anxiety, attention difficulties, or substance use disorders. My approach is guided by precision, humility, and restraint: using the least intensive intervention necessary while drawing upon the full breadth of evidence-based medicine. Depending on each patient's needs and goals, I integrate psychotherapy, nutrition, lifestyle medicine, exercise, targeted supplementation, and, when appropriate, carefully selected medications into a personalized treatment plan. In addition to my clinical work, I have presented internationally on psychiatric deprescribing and medical ethics. My work has been recognized with awards from the American Psychiatric Association, the International Association for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Allied Professions, the American Psychoanalytic Association, and other leading professional organizations. I am the Founder & Medical Director of Verigrate Health. I am licensed to serve patients in Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Lousiana, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, Washington, D.C., and Wisconsin.

I specialize in ADHD and Autism, as well as enjoy helping people navigate issues related to anxiety and depression. I believe that Resilience is a skill we can learn, and it is what is going to help us make it through whatever challenges life may throw our way. In my previous career I was a medic in the US Army, so if your experiences involve the military, emergency medicine, or moving around a lot, I get it. I have 7 kids and went to college at 40, so if you are a non traditional student, I get it. Lets talk about it!

Graceville, MN

Hi, I'm Molly! I am a mental health professional committed to helping individuals, families, and communities reach their greatest potential. I gravitate toward a person-centered, cognitive behavioral approach to therapy while tailoring sessions to meet the needs of my client, commonly utilizing the modality of Brainspotting to enhance session outcomes. I believe in meeting clients where they are at to support clients in reaching their goals, yet prioritize collaboration between clients, parents, and other service providers as needed or desired because no one should need to navigate changes or challenges alone. It is rewarding to see growth, healing, and learning from the various challenges life presents.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck in your thoughts, or just not like yourself lately? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it out alone, either. I work with students who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and life transitions that can feel confusing or heavy. Many of the people I work with are used to putting others first, staying busy, or “holding it together” even when they’re struggling inside. If that sounds familiar, this may be a good place to start. As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I offer a space that’s judgment-free, supportive, and focused on what you need. Together, we’ll explore what’s going on and create a personalized plan that may include therapy, medication support, or both—always at a pace that feels right for you. I currently see clients through secure, easy-to-use telehealth, so you can access care from wherever you feel most comfortable. If you’re ready to feel better, I’d love to help you get started.

I know that balancing school, work, and a social life is a lot to handle, and sometimes "powering through" just isn't enough. As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in Minnesota, I help college students and adults (16+) navigate these high-stress years. Since I work exclusively via telehealth, you can skip the commute and meet with me from the privacy of your own space. How I Help I specialize in working with people managing Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, ADHD, and Autism, as well as Personality Disorders. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, I use a mix of tools to help you find what actually works for your life: CBT: To help you catch and change the negative thought loops that keep you stuck. DBT: To give you "in-the-moment" skills for handling big emotions and stressful situations. ACT: To help you stay present and make choices based on what actually matters to you. What to Expect In our sessions, you can expect a real, down-to-earth conversation. There’s no need to "perform" or have all the answers. Whether you are struggling to get things done, healing from past experiences, or just trying to keep your head above water, we’ll work as a team. My goal is to help you feel more in control and give you practical tools so that daily life feels a lot more manageable.
