Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Duluth, MN

Hello, my name is Betsy Walter MSW, LICSW.

I use a relational approach to working with adolescence. I am easy to talk to and like to listen.

Hi everyone my name is Tiffany and I have been working in the mental health field for 6+years. I received my Bachelor's of Arts in Psychology and Criminal Justice from Hamline University and completed my Master's of Arts at Adler Graduate School where I focused on Clinical Mental Health Counseling.

Since graduating in 2022, I completed all post-graduation requirements and received my LPCC License (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) from the state of Minnesota in January 2025.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, clinical supervisor, and psychotherapist with over 25 years of experience helping individuals navigate trauma, emotional distress, and life transitions.

My career has included work in schools, outpatient counseling centers, and hospital settings, where I supported individuals facing mood disorders, addiction, and psychosis. I’ve worked with clients across the lifespan—from young children to older adults—and bring a broad, real-world perspective to my practice.

As a certified trainer in trauma-informed care, I use practical, effective tools to help you better understand your emotional responses, regulate stress, and feel more grounded. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to your specific needs. I draw from a range of therapeutic techniques to help you gain insight, shift patterns, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Clients often tell me that our work together helps them feel less overwhelmed, more self-aware, and better able to cope with life’s challenges. I strive to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and comfortable being yourself.

Some of the feedback that I received from clients are:

"You give me a perspective so I don’t get stuck and I realize I don’t have to solve it all at once

"You have forever affected how I look at things in a positive way"

"You changed how I look at things. I know I can do it, so I achieve it. The re-parenting thing gives me a way to understand people and myself."

"You help people be comfortable in their own skin."

I have worked in mental health in a variety of settings for the past 20 years. My practice is evidenced based. I have experience working with children and adults. As a nurse practitioner, my primary focus is medication management.

As a licensed clinical psychotherapist with a background in personal training, I take an integrative approach to care that considers mental, physical, and emotional well-being. My work is grounded in helping clients build stability, resilience, and a greater sense of balance in their lives.

I primarily work with male clients from late adolescence through adulthood who are navigating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety, body image concerns, and substance use. I aim to provide a structured, supportive environment where clients can better understand their experiences and develop effective, evidence-based strategies for change.

I am a Professional Mental Health Therapist/ Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) providing telehealth services throughout Minnesota and in-person therapy in Brainerd. I work with adolescents ages 10+ and adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, and self-esteem challenges. My approach integrates EMDR, Brainspotting, somatic therapy, and evidence-based practices to support healing and lasting change.
