   About Mindy

   Dr. Mindy Siegert-Horgeshimer is a licensed counselor with 17 years of experience. She holds LPCC and LMHC credentials and practices in Minnesota. She aims to make starting therapy feel manageable for people who are worried or unsure. She speaks English and accepts international clients.

   She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, and addictions. She also supports those facing LGBT concerns and gender dysphoria. Practical everyday problems like workplace strain, social anxiety, and questions about sexuality and life purpose are included in her focus.

   In sessions she fosters an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through thoughts and feelings. She uses approaches such as Motivational Interviewing to help people find inner reasons to change. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person’s perspective.

   When helpful, she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thought that keep problems going. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are available for managing intense emotions and improving coping. The therapist works with each person to decide what methods fit best.

   Her style is practical and supportive, with attention to what feels doable in day-to-day life. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on therapist availability. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

2. How these approaches work in online therapy

   Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and following the client's lead. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what matters most to them, which can ease decision-making and reduce shame.
   
   Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people find their own reasons to change. It works well when someone feels stuck about making changes related to addictions, health habits, or life transitions.
   
   Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what strategies feel useful. Together they will choose or blend methods so sessions match the client's needs.
   
   The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, avoid travel time, and maintain continuity when routines are disrupted. Telephone or video sessions often allow shorter check-ins and flexible timing, while different formats can help when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Licensed professionals adapt tools from these approaches to work well over distance and help clients practice skills between meetings.
