Violet Wurtzberger
Introduction
I earned my master’s degree in Co-occurring Recovery Disorders Counseling from Metropolitan State University in St. Paul, MN, in 2021. Shortly after, I relocated to the Brainerd, MN area to embrace a deeper connection with family and the natural world. As a dually licensed professional in Minnesota, I hold credentials as both a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor (LADC). My experience spans a wide range of concerns, including trauma, life transitions, complicated grief, depression, anxiety, and more. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, a specialized approach for addressing the symptoms of trauma. I see therapy as a collaborative journey—you’re in the driver’s seat, and I’m in the passenger seat, here to help navigate. I offer insights, suggest detours when helpful, and assist in organizing the tools you already possess. I’ll also support you in learning new coping strategies, but we will never go anywhere you’re not ready or willing to explore. You are the expert in your own life. There is no failing in therapy—this is your journey. My ultimate goal is for you to leave each session feeling that you’ve made meaningful progress toward your therapeutic goals. Along the way, you’ll build the tools, clarity, and confidence to continue forward with resilience and self-trust.
