About Dr. Tonkin

My practice is closing on May 23, 2025. Therefore, I am not taking new patients now or in the future. I recommend finding a psychiatrist or therapist through your health insurance plan's provider network website, Psychology Today, or the Minnesota Psychoanalytic Society and Institute's website where there is a list of therapists who work within a psychoanalytic framework.
What is psychotherapy?
Psychotherapy is a general term for a wide array of therapeutic approaches that address human suffering in one form or another. I utilize a psychoanalytic, attachment-based, and client-centered approach with incorporation of experiential and mindfulness-based interventions. My focus in therapy is on the relationship between you (the patient) and me (the therapist). Together we work to better understand your individual needs and desires; increase insight into emotion and thought patterns that serve as barriers to positive change; and increase acceptance of yourself. My aim is to help my patients find decreased distress and increased contentment through in-depth exploration of emotions, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships within a safe, healing space.
