About Eugene

As a licensed therapist in Minnesota, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life challenges. My professional approach centers on addressing depression, anxiety, stress, and interpersonal dynamics with compassionate, evidence-based strategies. I have extensive experience working with diverse populations, including young adults, caregivers, men navigating personal challenges, and individuals experiencing social anxiety or isolation.

My therapeutic practice focuses on helping clients develop stronger communication skills, improve self-esteem, and navigate difficult transitions—whether in workplace settings, family relationships, or personal growth journeys. I understand the nuanced emotional landscapes of blended families, aging individuals, and those managing seasonal emotional shifts.

With a deep commitment to creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment, I work collaboratively to help clients develop resilience, emotional insight, and practical coping strategies. My goal is to empower individuals to understand themselves more deeply and create meaningful, positive changes in their lives.

What clients say

  • “Working with Gene has been great. As with anything worth doing, you get out what you put in. Gene is helpful in keeping me on track & focused on the issues.”
  • “I met Gene at one of the lowest points in my life. From the beginning I knew he was the right therapist for me. He is caring, but doesn't sugarcoat the truth, which is very important to me, and often what people need to hear. Since meeting Gene, he has helped me become a better person, partner, son, brother, etc. I never thought I would be someone who went to therapy, but I actually looked forward to our weekly visits. A 10/10 isn't enough for Gene 100/10 I couldn't recommend him more. If you put in the work, and take the time to listen, Gene will help significantly improve your life for the better. I cannot thank him enough!”
  • “I have had an excellent experience with Gene and he has helped me through my journey.”
