Dan Moen, LMFT — Therapist in Minnesota

Hi there, I'm Dan!

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a background in family research and higher education. I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with stress, burnout, relationship strain, or feeling like they’ve lost themselves. My approach helps you understand your story, challenge old patterns, and reconnect with who you truly are.

My focus

I work best with individuals and couples who are motivated for real change and willing to look beneath the surface. Many of my clients are thoughtful, high-functioning people who feel stuck in patterns of stress, perfectionism, relationship conflict, or burnout. If you’re ready to examine your story honestly and do meaningful work, I am here.

My approach

My approach is collaborative, honest, and grounded in understanding your story. I help clients slow down and notice the patterns shaping their relationships, stress, and sense of self. Together, we identify what no longer serves you and build healthier ways of relating to others and to yourself.

My communication style

I communicate in a direct, compassionate, and collaborative way. I listen deeply, reflect on what I hear, and offer insights that help you see patterns and possibilities in your life. You can expect honesty, curiosity, and guidance that supports meaningful change.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist to support people in creating lasting change in their lives and relationships. I focus on helping clients gain clarity, build healthier patterns, and move toward their goals with confidence and authenticity.

My goals for you

I help clients reach their goals by exploring the patterns, beliefs, and stories that shape their behaviors and relationships. Together, we identify what’s holding you back, develop practical strategies for change, and create a plan that aligns with your values. I provide guidance, support, and accountability along the way.

Our first session

Your first session is focused on understanding your background and what brings you to therapy. I take a detailed history, including family of origin, relationships, and life experiences, to identify patterns and areas for growth. We’ll begin clarifying goals and discussing how we can work together to achieve them.
