About Colette

Colette Kuznia is an LPCC with 35 years of experience who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and anger. She practices in Minnesota and speaks English. She encourages a first step toward help and recognizes that starting therapy can take courage.

Colette uses a Cognitive Behavioral Health approach and adapts treatment goals to each person. Sessions focus on practical steps you can try between meetings. Conversations are direct but compassionate, aiming to make daily life feel more manageable.

She has years of experience supporting people through relationship concerns, parenting strain, grief, career questions, and major life changes. Colette also addresses issues such as compassion fatigue, bipolar concerns, intimacy-related challenges, and ADHD-related struggles. Her work includes coaching elements when helpful to set clear goals and next steps.

In the therapy room she aims to create an open, empathic atmosphere where thoughts and feelings are shared without judgment. Colette and each client set treatment goals together and adjust them as needs change. The emphasis is on concrete tools and steady progress rather than abstract theory.

People who are nervous about starting therapy often find reassurance in a straightforward plan and small, achievable steps. Colette invites potential clients to consider the process and to begin by using the site Start Therapy flow to match and schedule a session.

How Cognitive Behavioral Health works online

Colette uses a Cognitive Behavioral Health approach that focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors. This method breaks problems into smaller steps and gives practical tools to use between sessions, which can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and stress. She also includes coaching elements when helpful to set concrete goals and track progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client collaborate to choose techniques that match the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Colette will adjust methods over time so the plan stays useful and realistic for everyday life.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a full hour is not practical. It can also make it simple to continue therapy during life transitions or while managing work and family commitments. Discuss format and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire to find an arrangement that fits your routine.
