I first met Adam Gatzke back in college when we were camp counselors in rustic northern Minnesota. I immediately saw that he was gifted and caring person with a good sense of humor and a strong faith. Years later our paths crossed again, working together as therapists at a non-profit faith-based counseling agency devoted to helping families torn apart by abuse. At that time Adam became a sought after therapist, qualified to help individuals, couples, and families find lasting healing and transformation. As a friend, I know that he is a likable, talented and innovative person, passionate about making the world a better place... and as a colleague, I would not hesitate to recommend him to someone needing counseling; and I will certainly do so whenever someone needs counseling in the south metro. Blessings on the new private practice Adam! I have no doubt it will be a place of hope and healing for years to come. - (Mark Odland - MA, LMFT, MDIV - Therapist and Owner of North Woods Christian Counseling in White Bear Lake, MN)
