About

Rebecca Connor, Relationships Therapist.I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist based in Plymouth, MN.  My home office is located at 13030 12th Avenue North in Plymouth. Therapy sessions are also available through a HIPAA friendly tele-medicine platform.

I earned my Masters degree in Marriage and Family therapy in the Bay Area in 1998 and moved back to the twin cities area in 1999. Throughout my internship in the Bay Area I specialized in addiction and children of addicts. I worked in play-therapy with children and adolescents.

Soon after moving back to Minneapolis from the Bay Area, I worked for two years at Family and Children’s Therapy clinic in Minneapolis, a clinic specializing in GLBTQ+ community.   At Family and Children’s I worked with adults, families, children, and specialized in attachment and family system issues. I also led a men’s court ordered anger management course.

After obtaining my MFT license in Minnesota in May 2002, I began private practice first in St. Louis Park. In early 2009 I moved my office to an uptown Minneapolis location and in late 2017 moved again to my current location in Plymouth.

I have received numerous trainings from 1996 to the present, mostly in the area of mindfulness and body-centered psychotherapy. I specialize in working with adults with anxiety, grief and bereavement challenges, depression, and complex or developmental traumas.

I  am also experienced in working with highly sensitive individuals. My trainings include  Sharon Stanley’s Somatic Transformation (similar to Peter Levine’s Somatic Experiencing), The Psychomotor Trauma Training (through the Psychomotor Institute, founded by Pat Ogden) and Hakomi (founded by Ron Kurtz), and Steven Porges Polyvagal theories. In addition to these trainings, I have taken numerous extended workshops.

I led annual couples’ and women’s weekend retreats from 2002 to 2015, and from 2005 to 2017 I led 4 hour Couples Intensive workshops at my office in Minneapolis.

I am an ongoing student of the work of Carl Jung, Marian Woodman, and dream work since well before the 1980s.

Prior to 1996, I worked and trained in body-work and energy-work.
