Dr. Shelley Sommerfeldt
Psychologist, Psy.D.
If you’re feeling disconnected, overwhelmed by conflict, or just uncertain about the future of your marriage, relationship counseling can provide a safe space to rebuild trust, improve communication, and rediscover the love that brought you together. Relationship work is a core specialty of my practice, where I help couples improve communication, rebuild trust, and deepen intimacy. Through a compassionate and practical skill-building approach, I guide partners in resolving conflicts and creating a stronger, more fulfilling partnership grounded in understanding and mutual respect.

Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
You keep having the same fight with different words. Or you've stopped fighting altogether, not because things are better but because you've stopped trying. The distance between you has grown so gradually you're not sure when it started, only that it's there now, undeniable. Our clinicians are trained in the Gottman Method, the most researched approach to couples therapy available. We help you identify the patterns that are eroding your connection and give you real tools to repair them. This isn't about venting at each other with a referee in the room. It's about learning to turn toward each other again. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.
