About Edward
Edward Larkin is a Minnesota psychologist with nearly three decades of clinical experience. He goes by Ted and aims to help people reduce anxiety, manage stress, and find clearer direction in their lives. He focuses on practical steps you can use between sessions.
He speaks English and works with adults from Minnesota. Ted uses straightforward, conversational sessions where clients set their own goals. He blends client-centered care with cognitive tools and motivational strategies.
Background and approach
Mindfulness and stress-reduction techniques are offered for people dealing with chronic worry, sleep trouble, or medical stress. His background includes long experience as a therapist, educator, health coach, and case manager. That mix helps when clients need to coordinate medical, behavioral, or social services.
The profile lists Minnesota Psychologist LP3685 as his credential, which indicates his role and location. In therapy he helps people name specific problems, try focused strategies, and track small changes over time. He often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and motivational interviewing to build practical habits.
Sessions can address a wide range of concerns beyond anxiety, including grief, depression, addictions, relationship and workplace stress, caregiving strain, chronic pain and sleep problems. People looking for help with panic, ADHD-related issues, or seasonal mood shifts may also find relevant tools. Ted emphasizes collaboration: you and he decide what matters most and what to try next.
He prefers simple, doable steps that fit daily life and can be sustained long term.
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values; it is often useful for chronic worry, avoidance, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking patterns and trying new behaviors to change mood and stress levels; it works well for anxiety, panic, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy provides a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's lead to build motivation and clarity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and daily life. That could mean combining mindfulness practices, cognitive skills, and motivational strategies in a way that feels achievable.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls let you use visual cues and longer conversations, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to get consistent care around work, family, or medical appointments.
