About Edward

Edward Larkin is a licensed Minnesota psychologist with nearly three decades of experience. He greets clients warmly and uses a straightforward, respectful style to help people clarify what they want from therapy. People meet him as Ted if they prefer a more informal tone.

He begins by asking about hopes, goals, and what a better day looks like. Sessions focus on practical steps - small, manageable changes you can try between meetings. His work often centers on stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. He also helps with workplace issues, addiction concerns, and sleep problems.

Edward combines client-centered listening with cognitive-behavioral strategies and motivational techniques. Mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are woven into sessions when they fit a client's needs. This mix aims to support clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and more consistent day-to-day routines.

He has an interest in medical psychology and sustainable health. That means he can help people coordinate behavioral, medical, and social services they may already be using. He also works with issues related to chronic illness, caregiver stress, and co-morbid conditions.

With 29 years of experience, Edward brings a calm, practical focus to therapy. He meets people where they are and works collaboratively to identify steps that feel doable. The emphasis is on real-life solutions you can use between sessions.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Edward often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. ACT focuses on helping people accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions. CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and teaches practical techniques to change reactions and behaviors, which is useful for panic, low mood, and workplace stress. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about goals and preferences, try strategies, and adjust plans based on what feels most helpful. The aim is to find methods that fit the person’s daily life and needs. Confirm current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce time spent traveling, and allow consistent check-ins from different locations. Some clients find short sessions or phone-based check-ins helpful when they need a quicker touchpoint, while video work supports more interactive skill practice. Discussing practical needs at the start helps shape sessions that work with everyday routines.
