The Clinic

Lorenz Clinic is a group private practice focused on the mental health needs of children, families, and adults. While the majority of our services are provided under the umbrella of managed care, we have community partnerships that allow us to service those without insurance. Located on the edge of the Minneapolis Metropolitan area, our six locations are located in gateway communities approximately 30-35 miles south/southwest of downtown Minneapolis and St. Paul and provide needed access to psychological services for both suburban and rural communities.

In addition to its overall mission of expanding access, the clinic offers integrated services such as psychological testing, psychiatric medication management, early-childhood day-treatment, in-home services. Psychologists with special competency with children or families as well as bilingual candidates are especially encouraged to apply.

The Training Program

A major highlight about Lorenz Clinic is that it is a training site. Our existing training program includes a master’s-level family therapy practicum placement, a post-master’s fellowship, and a postdoctoral psychology fellowship. The training program hosts a vibrant invited practitioner speaker series in addition to monthly grand rounds. Because the training program is an outgrowth of our fierce dedication to serving the underserved, we offer significantly reduced fee services to those in financial need.
