How it all came to be…

OUR HISTORY

The Kuhn Counseling Center began when Maria Kuhn opened her practice in Naperville in the early 1980’s. Her goal was to have a broad practice that served children, adults, and families. For many years, her offices were on Washington Street, in historic homes which provided a comfortable place for children and families to visit. Because Maria understood all too well that life can sometimes have its challenges, she focused on becoming a professional who could provide her clients with the kind of help that enabled them to feel supported and empowered. Maria’s philosophy has always been to help the individual in all aspects of his/her life (with medical, education, work and/or legal issues) that can cause a need for therapeutic help. The Kuhn Counseling Center takes pride in offering services that provides a whole-person strategy for individuals who seek an opportunity to explore options or to deal with a stressful situation.

As her practice expanded, she began working with and hiring other clinicians, social workers, counselors, and psychologists to fill the needs of many individuals. On August 4th, 2003, Kuhn Counseling Center incorporated and another office was opened in the Fox River Valley area. Today Kuhn Counseling Center, P.C. is located in Batavia and Naperville.

What we believe

OUR PHILOSOPHY

At Kuhn Counseling Center, our philosophy focuses on the labyrinth, representing one’s journey to their own center and back again out into the world; a path to a more balanced, whole-person wellbeing.

As clinicians, we believe in reflection, stress reduction, and the exploration of personal wellness, all uses of a labyrinth. Sometimes redirecting and adjusting life’s energies takes the assistance of a clinical professional. Personal growth, identity, and integration is a journey that is made easier with the trust and care of a professional.

A labyrinth is an ancient symbol that relates to wholeness. It combines the imagery of the circle and the spiral into a meandering but purposeful path. It represents a journey to our own center and back again out into the world. Labyrinths have long been used as meditation and prayer tools.

Sir Gilbert Scott created the beautiful labyrinth we have used as a part of our logo during his restoration of the Ely Cathedral in 1870.
