Reconnect. Heal. Begin Again.

You’ve held it together for so long. But you’re ready for something to shift.

You’ve been the one others count on—the strong one, the helper, the peacekeeper. Always taking care of things. Holding it all together.

But lately, it’s felt harder to keep going. You’re tired. Worn thin. Wondering where you fit in the life you’ve worked so hard to build. You might feel stuck in your head, disconnected from your body, unsure of your next step. Maybe you’re carrying the quiet weight of old family dynamics, navigating a major life transition, or longing for deeper connection—in your relationships or with yourself.

You’re not broken. You’re becoming, and therapy can help you come home to yourself.

Here you have a place to slow down, breathe, and reconnect—with your needs, your voice, and the life you want to create. It’s a space to feel heard, affirmed, and understood. A place to explore what matters to you, not what’s been expected of you. And to begin creating change that feels true to who you are—not who you’ve had to be.

You don’t have to do it all. And you don’t have to do it alone.

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”


Therapy is a place to ask that question, and to begin answering it in your own way.

Hi, I’m Dr. Erin Metz!

I help women and couples move from self-doubt and disconnection to clarity, confidence, and deeper connection.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in creating safety and connection. I integrate tools from attachment theory, CBT, and strength-based therapy, and tailor sessions to your unique goals and needs, rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

You’ll be supported and gently guided as we explore what’s no longer working, make sense of your experiences, and cultivate your insight and strengths to help you heal and create real, lasting change.

Therapy can help you:

  • Reconnect with your authentic self

  • Tap into your strengths

  • Heal wounds with care and clarity

  • Break out of people-pleasing and perfectionism

  • Understand how your past shapes your present

  • Untangle patterns that no longer serve you

  • Build boundaries that reflect your values

  • Strengthen relationships—with yourself and others

Our Work Together

You don’t have to keep living according to expectations, roles, or “shoulds.” I’ll partner with you to help you connect with yourself, heal, and make changes that are rooted in what matters to you.


What if you had a space to slow down? To be supported? To start again?

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or like you’ve been holding your breath for too long—you’re not alone.
This is a space to land. To be seen and heard. To begin again, with care. If you’re interested in individual or couples therapy in Minnesota or Hawaii, please schedule a free consultation.
