About Me

Hello! My name is Dr. Lindsay Murn and I am a Licensed Psychologist in the State of Minnesota and PsyPact-approved provider. I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and Master Certified Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) Practitioner. I received my Bachelors degree in Psychology from St. Cloud State University, and a masters degree in Educational Psychology and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Counseling Psychology from Oklahoma State University. I have over 18 years of clinical and assessment experience with diverse populations across five states. In addition, I have worked with adolescents, young adults, college students, adults, couples, and groups in community mental health centers, juvenile treatment facilities, college counseling centers, and group/private practices. 

I provide individual psychotherapy and assessments for adults (ages ~18-60). My areas of clinical focus include treating acute, chronic, and complex trauma (including, but not limited to, past physical/sexual abuse, sexual or intimate partner violence, accidents, childhood abuse or neglect, death/loss, significant life disruptions), shame and self-worth concerns, anxiety, grief, relationship and attachment concerns, life transitions, body image and disordered eating, ADHD and executive functioning concerns, and work stress and professional burnout. I also offer trauma-informed psychological testing for adults who are looking for diagnostic clarification on executive functioning issues, as well as therapeutic assessments to deepen one’s understanding of themselves and determine more effective treatment directions. And my newest passion is hosting a therapeutic book club for women! 

I approach all facets of my work as a psychologist with a trauma-informed lens, and am passionate about sharing this framework with others. I am dedicated to training the next generation of mental health professionals as a clinical supervisor and consultant and through trauma-informed professional development trainings and workshops on topics like self-compassion, trauma, trauma-informed care, therapy, leadership, and teaching/learning, sexual violence, clinician burnout, collegiate mental health, and therapy outcomes. I have extensive experience teaching a variety of college courses, presenting research at regional, state, and national conferences, conducting continuing education trainings for mental health professionals and practitioners, delivering psychoeducational presentations for higher education faculty and staff, and supervising and training novice mental health practitioners and counselors. My research interests include sexual violence, self-compassion, and therapy outcomes.

Outside of work, I enjoy being active, reading, traveling, listening to podcasts, and spending time with my husband and pets (cat, dog, and turtle).
