Brad Fern, Individual and Couples Counseling, Minneapolis, MN

Brad Fern

MA, LMFT
(He, Him)

I help people heal from trauma, anxiety, and depression. 

My motto: “We’re all in the same leaky boat.” In other words, I’ve had my share of struggles in my life, and I’m proud that I was smart enough to seek mentors to help me figure things out. I’ve learned to function in my relationships with compassion, introspection, assertiveness, vulnerability, and intimacy. Let me help you do the same. 

I am committed to non-discrimination. I’m an old, white-male heterosexual, and it took some time for me to understand the privileges I was afforded simply because of my race and gender. I endeavor to manage my biases on an ongoing basis, and wish to offer services to all regardless of race, gender, religion, national origin, gender identity or relationship status. 

I offer video therapy for your convenience. You can meet with me in the comfort of your home or office. If you prefer or require require discretion, if you live in a small town with limited options, or if you’re just very busy; video therapy may be for you. Feel free to call for a free 30 minute consultation.
