"Counseling with Mark Felber is valuable because I am learning to communicate with my partner in a non-threatening, productive manner. Before my partner and I began Imago Relationship Therapy with Mark, I would have allowed my anger to 'run the show.' Relationships don't last when someone is that out-of-control. Today I am learning to communicate in a healthier way. I am privileged to understand the histories that have helped make my partner and me the individuals that we are. And today I can help heal my partner's hurts and maybe learn how not to contribute further to those hurts.

"Mark is a very kind, loving, and generous individual. Our work together heals my heart. In addition to his compassion, he provides me with concrete tools to use to change the way I act. He helps me to understand the genesis of my hurts and negative behaviors and then helps me find ways to grow beyond them. Moreover, I am most impressed that Mark has done the the very work he is asking me to do. Mark continues to get training to further his understanding of himself and his clients. And through free workshops, he makes available his knowledge to whoever is interested! The guy is incredible; he believes in what he is doing. Because of his own hard work and his unshakable belief in that work, he has helped me grow into a person I never knew I could be. I was in therapy for many years previous to working with Mark. I have worked with Mark less than a year; and, at 50, I am finally beginning to become a woman I can be proud of. Words alone cannot express my gratitude."
-- Donna L.

"Counseling with Mark Felber and learning Imago Therapy Relationship Skills taught us how to relate to and communicate with each other in a healthy, positive, safe manner, as well as to help begin healing each other's childhood emotional wounds. I liked Mark's style of helping identify exactly the areas most needing attention, and then allowing me to experience the emotions accompanying these areas. He was able to uncover hidden and repressed painful feelings that are being healed by bringing them out into the open. I was impressed by his ability to almost intuitively know how best to explore and mend broken emotional areas by directly involving me as an active participant rather than a passive listener."
-- Sam S.

"Counseling with Mark is valuable because it enables you to explore your past and connect with your maladaptive behavior, helping you understand why and showing you how to change. The most important thing to me is receiving constant validation, love and support. I always leave feeling better about myself. I like Mark's style because it is very interactive. I am doing a lot of the work but so is he. You don't see the typical nod of the head, pen in hand. What you do see is a concerned and committed man. You sense that you are very important to him. I was impressed by his ability to bring out hidden issues of which I was not aware. He has a skill of getting you to feel different feelings. Problems become clearer and easier to handle."
-- Marcia W.

"Mark is a very caring individual who is honestly connected with others' needs for recovery and change. He has the ability to lead a person through difficult issues and bring about a positive direction. I liked the fact that Mark has 'been there.' He's not one of those counselors who puts on airs of being better than you and he is willing to be vulnerable or transparent enough to share some of his own recovery in order to help you with your issues. I was impressed by his ability to know what direction to take the session. He seems to know exactly when to change the direction if what is going on is not producing results."
-- Jane P.

"Mark offered me an alternative to the lifestyle that I so desperately wanted to change but could not change on my own. I needed an objective and informed point of view and that is exactly what he gave me. I liked the casual yet professional approach that he takes in his sessions. Mark dispelled the myth of the stern, detached, or heavy-handed counselor that I had become accustomed to. I was impressed by his ability to cut to the issues at the core of a problem. His abilities to identify and treat behavior have amazed me. My life has improved drastically after seeking treatment with Mark."
-- John R.

"The coping skills he helped me achieve will be valuable throughout my lifetime...He helped me see a more positive and nourishing way of being gentle and good to myself...I was impressed by his ability to make me feel comfortable.. I feel very thankful that I had Mark there for me. I will value his advice all my life."
-- Janice M.

"Counseling with Mark would benefit others because most people are not brought up with the proper skills or role-modeling to cope with life in a healthy, happy way. I felt comfortable telling Mark anything and I also liked that he has done his own recovery work and has that understanding. I was impressed by his ability to allow me to feel at ease during our sessions."
-- Simone S.

Working with Mark is valuable because he can help you deal with your concerns such as fear, etc. He can help you discover your blindspots and create a more meaningful life. I liked his complete attention, concern, and focus on my issues and the direction he gave that helped me overcome my problems and work toward a better life. I was impressed by his ability to quickly help me heal many issues, and I valued his care and concern for my growth.
-- Deborah S.

"Mark is laid back and you can feel comfortable around him. He teaches you the best way to handle problems personally and as a couple. Counseling with Mark is great and makes you feel great."
-- Martha J.

"Counseling with Mark Felber is valuable because a person cannot really start living their life until they have a safe place to deal with their past traumas. The way he makes you feel, you can say exactly what you feel without being scared. And there is no pushing faster than you are ready."
-- Eva K.
