      <image:title>Home - Specialized for relationship</image:title>
      <image:caption>If you’re going to do relational counseling, you want to know that the professional guiding your treatment has invested in understanding relational dynamics. I’d recommend for anyone looking for a relational therapist to seek out practitioners who have extensive training in an evidence-based couple counseling model such as Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) or Gottman Method. Lots of therapists attempt to adapt the individual therapy models they’re trained to relationship dynamics. Running shoes might be able to get you through a rough terrain hike, but there are shoes designed entirely for hiking. Right? Couples without a clinical roadmap tend to feel like they are just arguing during session or that the therapist doesn’t really know where to go. Because of the additional training I have in EFT, I’m able hold treatment to a specific and evidenced based road map throughout treatment, regardless of where we are on the map. To find out more about the model or research behind EFT, please visit ICEEFT.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - Wellness, not illness</image:title>
      <image:caption>The storms of life are inherently human. They are not a sign of brokenness or weakness. Seeking refuge and healing is a sign of determination, strength, and resiliency rather than a sign of weakness or being mentally ill. Adopting a wellness rather than illness model, I see people as “stuck” rather than “sick.” Choosing to see the work I do this way is a stance against the stigma that prevents people from seeking out therapy in the first place. It’s a stance against the Western medical model of diagnosing and pathologizing which tends to be like putting out a fire with gasoline. Believing that there is a healer in you just as there is a healer in me, I blend the science of attachment, a trauma-informed sensitivity, and an experiential focus to all of the work I do. My hope is that our work together will empower you to deepen compassion and courage towards yourself, towards the tender burdens you carry, and towards the relationships around you as you reshape the narrative of your life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - All parts welcome</image:title>
      <image:caption>Understanding unique cultural and spiritual aspects of your identity is really important to me. Different parts of your identity hold privileges, oppression, suffering, tradition, hopes and longings, offer you a sense of belonging and community, and influence the way you define and move towards the construct of security. Aspects of your identity like your sexuality, gender identity, spirituality, race, socioeconomic status, age, and place you live greatly shape who you are and can shape our therapeutic work together. I extend an open invitation to all the parts of your identity, especially those parts of self that have been marginalized by dominant culture. It is also important to explore any cultural differences and how they may impact our work together. Because I have parts of my identity that reflect oppressive elements of dominant culture such as white supremacy and white privilege, patriarchy, and male dominance, it’s really important we can gently and openly move towards any activation. If you have any questions about how parts of your identity, especially marginalized parts of your identity could be weaved into our work together or how we may navigate differences, I’d love to hear from you. Bradley Unruh LLC is an LGBTQ+ affirmative practice, a practice dedicated to the ongoing pursuit of anti-racism, and a practice welcoming those who cary identities outside of heteronormative and monogamous dominant cultural groups. There are specific considerations we can examine in our work together if you are a part of the LGBTQ+ community, if you are a person of color/global majority, and/or if you don’t identify as monogamous. If parts of you cary marginalization and oppression, it’s likely that your mental health and relationship struggles are being influenced by systemic elements like lack of family or community support, societal prejudice, and oppression from systems created by and for those in dominant majority cultural groups. If you have any questions or concerns about how our work together would safely consider all parts of you, please reach out.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Services - Frequency of appointments</image:title>
      <image:caption>Most find it valuable to meet more often at the beginning of treatment. I recommend a weekly or bi-weekly appointment when getting started. Once things begin stabilizing, we won’t need to meet as often. Eventually, I will be available to you on an “if needed” basis. The more progress you make, the more you enjoy your life, and the less you need therapy. One of my favorite parts of my work is becoming irrelevant to the progress clients make. Treatment frequency can be adapted to fit your unique situation. If needed, it is possible to extend our time by adding additional 30 minute blocks billed at half of the hourly rate. It’s helpful to schedule these 90 or 120 minute blocks in advance so there is availability in my schedule to do so.</image:caption>
