Meet the Team
Solutions Counseling Services was established in 2003, proudly serving in Breckenridge, Minnesota for nearly 20 years. In 2019, Solutions Counseling Services grew by merging with another counseling agency and became Birchwood Therapeutic Services. Since then, we have expanded into other communities – Fargo ND and Grand Forks ND.
We stand apart from other therapy practices because we value holistic and innovative approaches that have shown true success. Research has shown traditional talk therapy may not been as effective for some individuals. Therefore, the providers at Birchwood Therapeutic Services continually strive to bring groundbreaking therapeutic approaches to our clients.
Our mission is to help our clients find their voice while on their path to healing.

Jamie Newberger, M.Ed., LPC (ND & MN)
I am passionate about working with individuals who are healing from painful situations in life, and who feel stuck in old patterns that just aren’t working anymore. Whether you are having difficulty communicating your needs or emotions, facing hard choices, or lacking direction, change is possible. You don’t have to continue feeling stuck or overwhelmed, and you don’t have to do it alone.
Reid Segal, M.S., LPC, NCC
Reid decided she wanted to be a counselor at 12 years old when she met with her own counselor for the first time. She has seen the benefits of therapy from both sides of the couch and is passionate about offering a welcoming and unintimidating therapy environment where she collaborates with her clients as an equal.

Denise Hellekson, LPCC
I believe one of the greatest investments we can make in life is the investment in ourselves, and one of the wisest choices we can make is reaching out for assistance when we need support along the way. It is an honor to walk with you on your journey of healing and self-discovery.
Kaitlin Hetland, LPC (MN), LPCC (ND)
I work with people to help them highlight and build on their strengths and focus on what is truly important to them. I can work with you to help when you are dealing with overwhelm, difficult change, worry, sadness, past hurts, family and relationship problems, and other hard things.
