Therapists

Chris Sommerfield, MS, LMFT

Chris is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist that obtained his Master’s Degree from Edgewood College in Madison.  He offers 20+ years of experience helping children, teens, adults and families during times of challenge in their lives.  He has worked in both rural and inner city settings with a broad spectrum of cognitive functioning, mental health diagnoses, personality style, culture, race and economic backgrounds.  Chris is particularly sensitive to incorporate an individual’s perspective of their own life circumstance when assessing and planning treatment services.  He comes from a strong Systems Theory background where all life influences are considered important and significant others are encouraged to participate as part of the therapeutic process.

In his personal life Chris is married, has three step-children and two dogs.  He has special insight into the challenges and joys of blended families as his family has successfully worked through many of their own mistakes and continue to learn with each new day.  In his spare time he enjoys spending time with his family, hiking, boating, swimming and playing with his dogs.
