Larry Baumgartner
Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Minnesota & Florida
Hi there! Nice to meet you!
First off, I am a Minnesotan. I was born and raised in West Central Minnesota, lived in the Twin Cities then moved to Florida for 15 years. The Sunshine State was true to its name. My wife and I met a lot of great people there and have many great memories. Tampa will always be a special place for us. We now live in the Twin Cities and are looking forward to seeing the beautiful fall colors and experiencing all the great things my home state offers. We are parents of 3 adult children. We also have an energetic and playful Belgian Malinois.
In my spare time besides spending time with my beautiful wife and our dog, I am a huge sports fan! I enjoy attending or watching the @Twins, @Vikings, @Timberwolves, @MinnesotaWild, @TBLightning, @Raysbaseball and @Buccaneers.
I have a master’s degree in Marriage & Family Therapy. My bachelor’s degree is in Mass Communications from Bemidji State University in Bemidji, MN. I am dually licensed as a Marriage & Family Therapist in Minnesota & Florida. I am a member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT), Minnesota Association of Marriage & Family Therapy (MAMFT) and Florida Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (FAMFT).
