​Dr. Jonathan Kodet, PhD
Licensed Psychologist
​

I am so glad you are here to take an important step in maximizing your potential, transforming your relationships, and centering your life. As a clinician, I am passionate about what really works in counseling - what is truly transformational beyond a life of coping. Centering your life means taking that journey of authentic growth and healing.

I bring deep listening, emotional support and experiential strategies to help clients get unstuck.  After therapy, clients often report improvements in relationships, more authentic self-expression, finding peace within themselves, and creating more meaning in life.

I have specialized training in the following modalities:

• Emotionally-Focused Therapy for Couples and Individuals (Experiential and Attachment-oriented)
• ​Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) and Acupressure EFT Tapping
• Acceptance & Commitment Therapy ("3rd wave" CBT Mindfulness approach)
• Non-Violent Communication (aka. Compassionate Communication)

​
When I'm not in the office, I enjoy spending time with my spouse & kids, family & friends, playing guitar, woodwork, and being in the great Minnesota outdoors.
