  Unless you commonly hear that you are a VERY easy-going person, and sometimes when you tell strangers about your life, their feedback is “That sounds so wonderful! Sometimes I forget that people with lives like yours exist. I’m so glad.”, and it hurts your feelings when you hear that, this is probably not a safe space for you, based on my experiences with them. This place offers couple’s therapy and individual therapy, so I had two therapists from CARE counseling, and I don’t know if they really have to do anything for that “Trauma Certification” in general, or if it just doesn’t mean anything to this company, specifically, but both of my therapists caused lasting harm that stay with me for a long time around my mostly very common traumas. These therapists come out of different CARE locations, but the one from the other one blamed their choices on their supervisor, so I can’t see how this isn’t a systemic issue deeper than either of these therapists, and probably, locations. I’ve left a review on the other location, too. Most of my day-to-day troubles these past couple of months are extremely common, too, and how ill-equipped they were to cope with issues that have been real problems for some people for centuries, if not millennia already, is too much for me. If they could do nothing but cause further harm to someone with problems that are so common, and whose feelings about them that are also extremely common and well within bounds, how can they be helping anyone? Even those without trauma? That’s why I’m writing this. I’ve been living with trauma for a decade and a half, and I know most mental health professionals can’t cope with it, but I don’t understand what this organization is doing here if they can’t help with their basic needs, either. To take our money for so long, just for us to have to leave worse off than we were when we got there, was highly re-traumatizing for me, and I sincerely hope you can avoid it. I hope you take these words to heart and that something good comes from what I am living through now. Best of luck in your journey towards healing. It looks like we’re going to need it. <3

  We have had an incredible experience with Care Counseling in Maple Grove. They have served our needs well and helped my teenager through some difficult seasons, resulting in better navigation of feelings/emotions and renewed confidence. I definitely recommend their services.

  Incredibly disappointed. I went in seeking regular weekly or biweekly appointments for my daughter who has suffered horrible trauma. We were informed 3 different providers could accommodate her needs. All 3 failed to have the availability requested after being told they had it already. 1 even said she had the availability but reserved that time for in person appointments and wouldn't be moved to accept a virtual. Lastly, they called me saying they had a provider that had openings every other Thursday at 5pm and would reserve that for us. 2 hours before the appointment was supposed to begin I called because I hadn't received a like for my daughter's session only to be told she had no appointments scheduled at all. Complete bait and switch multiple times. Do not recommend.

  As my life is literally falling to pieces I randomly Google and selected Care counseling. I've been dealing with my mental health for nearly 20 years I have a faithful psychiatrist but in and out of therapy and finding a truly wonderful therapist is not easy. Just by chance I called they scheduled me with 1 person but the next day they changed it to Sara Roufs and she was like an angel that I desperately needed. She is well educated, respectful, reassuring, empathetic (and not because it's her job ❤️‍🩹) and she was amazing at gently motivating me into doing the things that need to be done to get me back to my best life. I only saw her for a few months but that's because she knew I needed a special care plan that wasn't her field, and that alone tells you how respectable Care is they care about what's best for their clients not financial gain(I've had that in the past). It's my choice but I very much wish to return to Sara ( I'm sure any of the employees would be great I'm just picky) once I complete my treatment plan. I also got to meet her boss or main therapist/psychiatrist when I had a very rough moment on a video meeting and she as well was very calm and kind(can't remember her name) either way wonderful experience and Sara truly was a lifesaver.
