Anam Cara Therapies

k
Anam Cara Therapies is the culmination of
many years of experience facilitating healing with
individuals, couples, and families within the
progressive communities of the Twin Cities.

unnamedThroughout her years of creating processes, programs, and direct healing environments, Dr. Cara Carlson, our founder, has developed a profound sense of humility and curiosity with both the beauty and the vulnerability of the human soul. Her training has reinforced the belief that having a witness – one who will listen without judgment and who will provide a safe space for emotions – does result in lasting transformational change and healing.

The practitioners of Anam Cara house enjoy working with a wide diversity of families and communities and have extensive experience working across culture. LGB and Trans friendly.
