Brief Biography

Judith A. Toor, LMFT, LCSW has been practicing psychotherapy and family therapy since 1992.  She completed her MSW degree in the Marriage and Family therapy track at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, followed by a three year training in the field which led to clinical membership in AAMFT (American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy).  She maintains a private practice in the Town of Delafield, WI where she also offers workshops on various topics pertaining to inner growth and healing.

Prior to her work in the field of psychotherapy, Judith completed a Master's degree in English and taught composition, creative writing and poetry writing classes at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee from 1980 to 1992.  Her work at the time was deeply influenced by the writings and theories of C.G. Jung, a psychologist who viewed the unconscious mind as the wellspring of the creative process, combining body and mind, nature and spirit, ego self and transpersonal self and the universe.

Since childhood, Judith has also been dedicated to a journey of spiritual seeking.  She has spent over six years in the study of comparative religions and for most of her adult life has been involved with the studies of Western mystery schools, Jungian dream work, the archetypal and myth-centered bases of psychological processing, as well as energy work and Shamanic journeying / healing.

In addition to her AAMFT training with Eric Habrel, PhD., a well-known psychologist / family therapist in the Milwaukee and Waukesha areas, Judith Toor has also studied with Richard Schwartz, founder of the Internal Family Systems model.  She regularly uses this model in working with clients because it integrates basic Jungian ideas with family systems approaches in an easily accessible mode of "going inward" to work with disparate or polarized "parts" and reintroducing them to the healing, caring, compassionate and centered aspects of Self.
