"We Help You Create a Happier Life when Challenged by Personal & Work Relationships or Difficult Challenges."
We Find it Rewarding to Help Clients Better Their Lives
We enjoy our work. Helping clients to better understand and navigate through difficult life situations or relationship challenges is rewarding for us. Without professional help, people can spin their wheels, trying to make things better, but lacking the expertise and outside, objective perspective allowing them to do something more effectively.
We find it deeply rewarding to provide that perspective. When you work with us online or by phone we want you to receive counseling therapy confidentially, professionally, and safely.
History of MN Counseling Therapy
We began Chandler Counseling and consulting June 1st of 2012 at our St. Cloud, MN location. We have been continuously practicing there up to this present time.
In March of 2020, we went completely online due to Covid-19.
We continue to serve the Saint Cloud, Alexandria and Central MN area and have now expanded into the Minneapolis Metro area online, and with this MN Counseling Therapy website.
Richard Chandler, MA, LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor
Richard Chandler, MA, LPC came to psychotherapy after two decades of work in holistic healthcare. He wanted to serve clients when faced with life challenges that were more mental, emotional, and relational than was possible in his former healthcare practice.
Before beginning his practice specializing in career counseling and Myers-Briggs®, Richard mentored with psychologist Kirk Lamb, Ph.D., author of a helpful romantic and married couples’ e-book and a career e-book, which are both on this website.
In addition to career consulting, life and executive coaching, Richard primarily works with couples and individual men and women seeking better relationships, personal growth, and greater life-balance and happiness.
MN Counseling Therapy is now in its 12th year of practice, and Richard feels honored to serve Central MN clients and MSP and surrounding suburbs clients online.
