Bradley Barker

Bradley Barker, LPC, LPCC, is a Minnesota-based therapist with ten years of clinical experience focused on trauma, anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, and intimacy-related issues. He works with a range of presenting problems including attachment difficulties, post-traumatic stress, panic, anger, and family of origin challenges. His practice also addresses caregiver stress, communication problems, money and financial issues, and personality-related concerns.

Barker integrates trauma-focused work with modalities that explore internal systems and emotional bonds. He combines Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with Parts Work from Internal Family Systems and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to create a layered approach. Sessions are paced to the individual's comfort level, and he emphasizes client control over the process while working with memories and bodily reactions linked to past events.

He aims to provide a setting where people can explore painful memories, relational patterns, and difficult emotions without pressure to move faster than they prefer. His background includes training in the Gottman Method and other approaches that support relational repair and communication alongside trauma processing.
