Mark Odland, MA, LMFT, MDIV
About Me
My name is Mark Odland, and I provide online EMDR therapy, EMDR intensive, and EMDR-focused personal retreats to Business Leaders and fellow Private Practice Owners. I work primarily with men, but am excited to work with anyone willing to face hard things and do the emotional work necessary for a breakthrough. I am licensed in multiple states, and am able to provide online therapy in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming. I also provide in-person services at my office in Duluth, MN.
Education & Experience
My name is Mark Odland, and my mission is to help men escape the cages that hold them back and become the lions God created them to be. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, a Certified EMDR Therapist, and an experienced Christian counselor. Over the last 15 years I’ve conducted over 15,000 therapy sessions, trained over 1,000 therapists, and helped over 1,000 clients. I received my EMDR training from renowned EMDR pioneer Dr. Roger Solomon, and accepted the invitation to receive extensive business coaching from the legendary Scott Hallman (coach to Tony Robbins). I’ve been blessed to author over a dozen books, and have made guest appearances on national shows like the The Healing Trauma Podcast and The Anxiety Slayer Podcast. When not working, I enjoy surfing, jiu jitsu, weight training, hiking, connecting at church, and enjoying life on the beach with my wife and 4 kids.
Professional & Volunteer Affiliations
Pre-pandemic, I often facilitated in-person EMDR Basic Trainings around the country for EMDR-HAP. I have also participated in the Veteran Resilience Project in Minnesota, a non-profit collective of 20 EMDR therapists committed to helping heal PTSD for our state's military veterans (the organization allows for veterans to receive 12 sessions of EMDR, free of charge).
