Our specialties include addiction and compulsive behaviors (substance use and food), aging challenges, EMDR, grief and loss, relationship issues, trauma, chronic illness, mood/anxiety disorders, and perinatal mental health.
At Be. Counseling Partners we will support you throughout your therapy process. We will help you to identify your needs for support and your goals for change. Sometimes the desired change is internal; we want to think or feel differently about things, including ourselves. Sometimes the change we seek is about behavior; we want to react in different ways in relationships and situations in our lives. Sometimes the change is about acceptance; we seek acceptance of who we are or things we cannot control. It would be our privilege to accompany you in your change process.

Are CLARITY, HOPE, and SATISFACTION missing in your life ? I specialize in how ON-GOING CONFLICT, GRIEF / LOSS, ILLNESS, and DIVERSITY issues can lead to chronic frustration.
Clients respond very positively to my style as a therapist --- informal, empathetic, challenging, encouraging, educational, and collaborative. Typical individual and couples clients include young adults, mid-age, and elders. My work with clients frequently blends individual and couples therapy. I specialize in using the DISCERNMENT COUNSELING framework with 'mixed agenda' couples and the ideas of John / Julie GOTTMAN when working with couples who are wanting to enhance their relationship and co--parenting quality.

Anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem issues, perfectionism, relationship and friend issues, grief and loss. . . you’re not alone.

I’m Eric Murtha, an integrative psychotherapist, licensed to practice in Minnesota. During my years in practice, I have developed an understanding and appreciation of the uniqueness of each individual and family that I have helped. I believe that we all develop patterns regarding how we think, deal with emotions, and relate to the people in our lives. Often these patterns have served us in the past. However, during times of stress, loss, or traumatic experience, these patterns may be unhelpful, and we can feel stuck. This is when therapy can make a big difference in feeling better and help us live more effectively.

Accepting residents of MN. Do you often feel misunderstood, scared, stuck, unheard, or like you don't matter? Sometimes life experiences have us feeling like we are constantly struggling or fighting to survive. Maybe you feel like it's difficult to connect with others or even find it difficult to love yourself. This can leave you feeling lonely and unsure of the future, possibly even unsure if you can trust anyone to understand your struggles. I have interest in helping those who struggle with chronic pain, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief, and psychological trauma.

Outside of OCD and anxiety treatment, I am also passionate about working with mood disorders, life adjustments, relationship difficulties, attachment, grief and loss, identity exploration, perfectionism, stress management, and low self-esteem.
We all deserve to be the happiest and healthiest version of ourselves. Taking the first step to reach out for support and entrust someone to walk beside you in this journey can feel incredibly vulnerable. My aspiration is to create an open environment from one human to another where you feel seen and safe to show up authentically. You are the true expert on your life and I want you to leave each session feeling empowered. Together we can create space for self-exploration, build a foundation of skills to help anchor through difficult times, and include humor (when appropriate) along the way.

Whether you're dealing with burnout, stress, apathy, panic attacks, existential questions, anxiety, sadness, grief, stress, identity questions, or considering a life change, healing and growing can be complex and scary.
I help people become more fully themselves by reconnecting them with their strengths and discovering root causes. Finding a therapist can be intimidating and discouraging. But, it's worth it. If you're keeping it together on the outside but feeling burned out, tired, anxious, or apathetic; or if you feel off but you're not sure why; you're in the right place. My style blends candor with warmth, insight with empathy, existential ponderings with practical strategies, and humor with compassion.
