They believe that all people are divinely created beings with
unlimited potential.You can listen to an introductory podcast of
who they are and what they do here.
Marilyn Hough, LMFT
is a professional counselor with 20 years experience. Her
main focus is helping both individuals and couples awaken their
capacity to live life more fully. When people feel stuck in their
lives, it is often because they are only seeing a very small part
of who they are. It is almost as if they are wearing blinders.
Marilyn's goal in therapy is to assist individuals in removing
those blinders and gaining a broader perspective of who they are
and all they are capable of accomplishing. She works with issues of
self-esteem, intimacy, communication, and self-awareness. Her
special interest is working with couples on relationship issues and
with women contemplating and/or undergoing life transitions.
Marilyn is a licensed marriage and family therapist, a certified
EMD/R (eye movement, desensitization/reprocessing) practitioner and
personal coach. She has trained to do emotional release work with
Young Living Essential Oils and is an authorized leader of Heal
Your Life, Achieve Your Dreams workshops and groups.
Chuck Schmitt, LMFT
has been working in the personal development field for thirty
years and practicing psychotherapy for the last sixteen. His main
focus is relationship issues, whether they be with a partner,
family member, coworker or boss. He believes that all our
relationships have something to show us. The knowledge we get from
these interactions helps us to learn more about ourselves. Chuck
feels that we are on this earth to learn two basic skills: how to
create and how to love. It is with these ideas in mind that he
helps his clients to deal with the difficult issues in their lives.
In his counseling sessions, Chuck explores the reasons for his
clients' dissatisfaction. He also helps them discover why their
relationships are not progressing smoothly and gives suggestions
for getting their relationship back on track. Chuck is a licensed
marriage and family therapist, a master hypnotherapist, and a
personal coach. He regularly leads both groups and workshops on
relationship issues.
