Teri L. Murphy
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.S., LCPC
Marriage and Relationship counseling involves being able to engage both parties on a level where each feels understood and listen to. My advance training in the Gottman approach has been useful for my clients. I also received education in Marriage Counseling at the Chicago Institute of Psychoanalysis. The combination of the two allows me to be able to provide both in-depth and solutions focused therapy. For couples counseling to be effective, both partners need to be willing to take responsibility for their part in the problems, to accept each other's faults, and to be motivated to repair the relationship.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Relationships are central to knowing who we are and thus have an enormous impact on our mental health. We often downplay to ourselves that frequent or underlying problems in our relationships are "enough" to feel anxious, sad, or angry about. As a result we often misplace the source of distress solely upon personal failings. Much of my work focuses on helping you clarify what you want and need relationally, working out what is making it hard to communicate those wants and needs, and empowering you to try some new things with your loved ones.

"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find {with awareness and compassion} all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it." ~ Rumi So much of my work with couples comes back to this quote. When we are aware of those barriers within ourselves we can get a lot further a lot faster than details of daily life that so quickly distract us from our true work.
