Brent Baumler.
I have 20+ years of experience in the mental health field, which has given me a wide range of exposure to a variety of concentrations/populations such as the following: chronically mentally ill; in-patient CD training in a hospital setting; Youth and Family Crisis mobile unit for County Mental Health Center; residential treatment for EBD youth; and Christian counseling for individuals, marriages, and families.
The majority of my experience has been as a Christian therapist in the Twin Cities for the past 17 years. In addition, I have been a director at the clinic I am currently serving (Counseling Care at Bachmann & Associates) for the last seven years.
It has been an honor and privilege to provide professional, sound, Bible-based counseling to hundreds of clients during this time. I hope to continue providing the same Christ-centered therapy to those who are hurting and troubled in this world for years to come.
