Are you feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or like you're carrying invisible weight no one else can see? Whether you're juggling classes, navigating relationships, questioning your identity, or dealing with family or cultural pressure, you don’t have to go through it alone. I’m Tsuki, and I specialize in working with students who often feel like they don’t quite “fit the mold.” Many of the students I support are BIPOC, neurodivergent (ADHD, Autistic, AuDHD), and LGBTQIA+, and they're trying to make sense of who they are while moving through complex systems that weren’t built with them in mind. In therapy, your whole self is welcome — even the parts that feel messy or misunderstood. I offer online therapy in English, Mandarin, and Taiwanese and bring a compassionate, down-to-earth approach to our work together. Therapy with me is collaborative, flexible, and always grounded in respect for who you are and what you need. If you’re looking for support with anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, identity questions, or just feeling stuck — I’m here to help.

I specialize in working with people experiencing voice-hearing, paranoia, or unusual beliefs. These experiences are often clinically called psychosis, schizophrenia, or schizoaffective disorder.

I am passionate and sincere about providing my clients the space and safety needed to feel understood and supported. I work with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, stressed, pulled in too many directions and are looking for a way to get “unstuck.” I can facilitate a journey of self discovery and help to evoke deeper self-acceptance and self-compassion. I work collaboratively to help clients create solutions and small changes that add up to larger transformation, insight, wisdom, healthier behaviors and greater well being. I provide care that is strengths-based, solutions-focused, client-centered, and trauma-informed. I employ a variety of approaches- unique to each client- while promoting healthy coping strategies, and evidence-based skills that support clients in times of crisis, loss, low self esteem, addiction, anxiety, and interpersonal stress. Being human is extremely difficult. The responsibilities of life can feel overwhelming. Sometimes we simply need to be heard in order to access our innate wisdom and capacity for growth. If you are looking for empathy, compassion, understanding, and want to create a strategy for healthy, lasting change... please reach out.
I specialize in supporting adults dealing with ADHD, trauma, anxiety, depression, and substance use. My own life experiences and challenges have shaped my work as a therapist, and I bring empathy and understanding into each session. My approach centers on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where we work together to explore your goals, honoring your individual journey and finding strategies that feel right for you. I believe therapy is most effective when it’s a true collaboration, where we work together to find solutions that fit you, not a one-size-fits-all approach. I value honesty, humor, and mutual respect in our sessions—because healing doesn’t have to be all serious business. I’m here to listen, to guide, and to offer strategies that help you feel empowered and confident in navigating life’s challenges. Together, we’ll explore what works best for you, creating a space where you feel supported and understood, every step of the way.

Specialty: Person Centered Therapy, Solution Focused My approach to therapy is person-centered, focusing on your unique strengths rather than a label. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and empowered to grow. I blend existential exploration to help you navigate life's transitions with solution-focused strategies that support practical, meaningful change. I also incorporate motivational interviewing to help you connect with your own values, strengths, and motivation for change. My goal is to help you build insight, resilience, and confidence as you move toward the life you want.
The students I work best with are often balancing a lot at once. They may be trying to keep up with classes, work, family responsibilities, relationships, or uncertainty about their future while also managing stress, anxiety, burnout, or self-doubt. Many of the students I see are high-achieving and hardworking, but underneath the surface they feel overwhelmed, exhausted, stuck, or like they're carrying more than other people realize. Some are adjusting to college life, navigating major life transitions, or trying to figure out who they are and what they want for themselves. You do not need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, academic stress, confidence, or simply feeling lost, therapy can provide a supportive space to better understand yourself and develop tools to move forward. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free environment where you can be yourself, explore what's getting in the way, and build the skills and confidence needed to thrive both in college and beyond.
To people looking in from the outside, your life looks pretty great. On the inside, though? You’re replaying a conversation from last week on repeat, wondering what they thought of you and whether you should or shouldn’t have said this or that. You often overthink or overanalyze decisions to the point where you feel paralyzed in making a choice at all. Imagine a life where you… - No longer feel controlled by your thoughts - Can celebrate your imperfections - Feel confident making decisions & expressing your point of view - Are driven by your true passions & values I specialize in working with clients who are craving a sense of freedom in their lives. They’re tired of feeling defined by their anxiety or like no one in their life can really understand what they’re going through. My clients are willing to get vulnerable and embrace their imperfections (even when it’s uncomfortable) in order to make a difference in their life and their world. My approach to therapy is direct, honest, and driven by methods that actually work. I want to help you identify what’s truly important to you, confront your fears, and create change in your life.

Hi!! My name is Melissa Urbanek. I am a therapist that specializes in working with children, teens, college students and young adults. My practice is telehealth only that serves clients in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
I am so happy you are here! I am dually licensed as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Substance Abuse Counselor (SAC) and have been practicing as a therapist since 2021. Clients often come to me when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in patterns they want to change but haven’t been able to shift on their own. My role is to help you develop a deeper understanding of your inner self so you can better recognize patterns, emotions, and needs that may be driving your thoughts and behaviors. From that place of awareness, we focus on self-growth and healing by building insight, emotional regulation skills, and healthier ways of coping.
