September Prushek

Hi there! I'm September and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) practicing in Minnesota. I graduated with my master's degree in clinical mental health counseling from Saint Cloud State University in 2021 and have practiced in a variety of settings including my current private practice, community mental health, DBT intensive outpatient programming, corrections through the DOC, crisis, and foster care settings. I enjoy working with clients experiencing trauma (specializing in betrayal trauma), self-esteem concerns, codependency, relationship concerns, and those who may be navigating narcissistic abuse.

I identify as a compassionate and authentic clinician who approaches each session with a strengths-based and client-centered approach. Clients have often described me as creating an open and warm atmosphere to share their unique stories. But fear not! Expect direct and challenging nudges toward personal awareness and growth intertwined throughout the therapeutic experience. I believe each individual has an inner wisdom and intuition, and with the support of the therapeutic relationship, can create space to tap into this knowledge of self, connection with others, and meaning within the world.

In our initial session, clients can expect a warm and inviting atmosphere to get to know one another and ask any questions they may have about the therapy process. I aim to ensure clients feel comfortable in this initial phase to discuss the experiences have brought them to the therapy space. As a clinician who specializes in working with clients with a variety of trauma backgrounds, I encourage discussing only what the client feels ready and safe to disclose. Along with getting a better understanding of your current concerns, we will begin to collaboratively discuss therapy goals given you wish to move forward with the therapeutic process.
