Ari Warshawsky, MS

Life’s demands and stressors can sometimes leave us feeling incredibly overwhelmed, and we may feel like we should be able to work through everything on our own. Recognizing when to seek support, however, is both a strength and a skill. Ari believes therapy can be an empowering opportunity to better understand yourself, develop effective coping skills, and make meaningful changes that can benefit you throughout your life.

Ari meets clients where they are. Clients’ goals, needs, and preferences guide the direction of therapy, making counseling a collaborative partnership centered around what they want to get out of the experience. Ari is willing to ask the tough questions when needed and help clients explore perspectives or ideas they may not have considered. At the same time, he strives to create an environment where clients feel comfortable discussing any topic without judgment. He believes that therapy can be enjoyable, with humor and laughter often being a natural part of the therapeutic relationship. His Master’s Degree in Nutrition also informs his approach, providing additional perspective on the connections between physical and mental health.

Outside of counseling, Ari enjoys taking walks with his wife and dog, gardening, playing board games, and yelling at his TV as he watches Minnesota sports teams.

Ari is working under the supervision of Katie Snell while pursuing licensure as a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor.
