Getting to know Aaron Karmin
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor and earned my master’s degree from Roosevelt University, Chicago, IL. I specialize in mood disorders, anger management and relationship counseling, offering tailored therapeutic solutions to individuals and couples grappling with emotional challenges. Central to my practice is the belief that therapy is a transformative tool that effectively assists individuals and couples in overcoming emotional barriers. In my sessions, we work on identifying physical cues, recognizing thought patterns, contemplating consequences, implementing pragmatic solutions, choosing healthier behaviors, and fostering expressive communication.
I work with couples to address issues including trust, vulnerability (physical, emotional), sexuality & sexual identity, communication, and conflict. I often meet with couples who are looking to improve their relationship, enhance mutual understanding and compassion for each other, create a closer connection, heal after an infidelity, handle recurrent arguments and money conflicts, address sexuality (including divergent desires), or decide if they should stay together or part ways.
We all need help from time to time and it is a sign of strength and intelligence to know when to seek support. If I have a leaky faucet and the only tool I have is a hammer, just banging on my pipes is only going to make the problem worse. The pipes burst, my basement floods and the foundation cracks. Or I could just call the plumber and they give me a new tool called a wrench, so next time I have a leak I can fix it myself.
What should a new client know about working with you?
There are many therapeutic approaches used when meeting with a couple. I like to evaluate what approaches to use based on your needs and style as a couple. There isn’t one “right approach” to doing therapy as there isn’t one way to live. I provide education on what I have found useful in relationships. I invite you to look at new ideas and possibilities for living. I encourage you to try new ways of behaving and communicating. I like to learn from you about what you really want in your relationship. I am very interested in what each partner has to say about what has led to their struggle or becoming stuck. I want to know what you have done to change your situation, what has worked and what has not worked for you.
Counselors avoid taking sides because it is counterproductive to long-term success. That said, if I feel one partner needs to make a change in a particular area, I will say so. I have spent years helping people from every imaginable background and I am capable of seeing things empathetically from both perspectives. I am dedicated to guiding my clients through their emotional journeys. Whether it’s navigating through the complexities of intimate relationships, overcoming personal struggles, managing anger, or simply seeking a path to a healthier, more confident self, I am here to facilitate that journey with empathy and expertise.
