Richard Park

Richard Park, MA, LMFT, is a dedicated Marriage & Family Therapist with a profound belief in the healing power of psychotherapy, as echoed by Marcus Aurelius: 'Dig within. Within is the wellspring of Good; and it is always ready to bubble up, if you just dig.' He has been fortunate to witness his clients uncover a clearer and uplifting view of their true selves. Understanding the depth, complexity, and often misunderstood nature of emotions, Richard provides a safe environment to build meaningful context around feelings, thoughts, and experiences. This fosters self-understanding, empowering individuals to pursue lives filled with genuine happiness. Richard specializes in improving negative self-image, navigating relationship challenges, and resolving feelings of emptiness, regardless of personal accomplishments. His practice focuses on individuals ranging from late adolescence to middle adulthood, making gradual exploration of personality, relational history, and internal conflicts a priority. As an adjunct faculty supervisor at The Family Institute at Northwestern University, Richard also provides supervision for pre-licensed Marriage and Family Therapists and consults for licensed clinicians, demonstrating his commitment to the growth and development of the therapeutic community.
