Let Walk-In Counseling Center help!

All people upset or in emotional distress are welcome at Walk-In Counseling Center. We serve individuals, couples and entire families – of all ages, backgrounds and experiences. Our volunteer mental health professionals have specialized training and experience working with people suffering from depression, anxiety, chemical dependency, relationship and family problems. Volunteers are psychologists, clinical social workers and psychiatric nurses from the Twin Cities. Clients are treated respectfully and confidentially with the volunteers identifying and responding to their specific issues.

Come to Walk-In during our counseling hours. You don’t need an appointment. You may remain anonymous if you wish. Counseling sessions are about one hour and held in private rooms. Walk-In’s counseling services are usually short-term (fewer than 10 sessions). Referrals may be made to other agencies for other services, including longer-term care and support.

Coming Home Collaborative

Walk-In is involved with the Coming Home Collaborative, a volunteer association of people who are concerned with the psychological and spiritual healing of veterans, especially those re-integrating with their families and communities. For more information about the Coming Home Collaborative, log onto Listen To Vets.

Check out their book "Welcome Them Home -- Help Them Heal, Pastoral Care and Ministry with Service Members Returning Home from War" at Welcome Them Home Book. It was written by Rev. John Sippola, former Minnesota National Guard chaplain; Rev. Don Tubesing, wellness trainer and publisher; Dr. Valerie Yancey, nursing professor with a specialty in parish nursing and Amy Blumenshine, MSW and diaconal minister. The book addresses church leaders and pastoral care providers who have the opportunity to improve the re-integration experiences of military service members returning from war.

Veterans are encouraged to contact Walk-In for an appointment. We also recommend the Veterans' Survival Guide. NAMI also posts excellent military PTSD related resources on its site.
