My name is Tasia Cloutier, and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC).  I have been practicing for over 10 years.  I am in private practice in Wayzata.

My passion is helping individuals and families heal from painful past learning that is causing distress and dysfunction in the here and now.  I have experience helping people who present with a variety of struggles, such as: trauma, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, self-esteem issues, parenting, relational/communication issues, setting boundaries, maladaptive behaviors, and relationship challenges.

I think the relationship between a therapist and their client is the biggest indicator of success, therefore, I focus on building a strong rapport with my clients, making sure the client knows they are supported and validated. I am here to walk this journey with you, to be a guide and a support. This is your therapy, and so my focus is on what you need and want and not my agenda. I hope that you will feel heard and respected.  I am deeply passionate about what I do.

I practice from a trauma-informed lens, which means I approach therapy with a sense of curiosity.  I want to know more about what happened to you that contributed to the issues that you are currently struggling with.  I work to maintain a safe and supportive therapeutic environment for my clients.  Though processing and healing from painful past experiences can be daunting, clients will often experience a truly remarkable shift in emotions, behaviors, and thoughts by the end of the process.  

I also use a variety of techniques including Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Client Centered Therapy, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, and Post Induction Therapy for trauma and relationship issues. The premise of Post Induction Therapy is that childhood trauma (defined as anything less than nurturing) is the origin for issues like co-dependency and emotional dysregulation.

Feel free to reach out to me by phone or email so that we can briefly chat and figure out if scheduling an appointment would be a good fit for you. 

Tasia sees clients In-Person (Wayzata) or via Telehealth.
