My husband has been seeing Dr. Murman off & on for several years to help control his OCD

Member Comments: 

Dr. Murman literally helped save our marriage not once but twice. The first time he came to our aid my husband's OCD was out of control and affecting every area of our lives including parenting. Through a number of techniques, including hypnotherapy, Bob taught my husband how to control his urges/impulses. Recently my husband began working with Bob again when he realized the OCD had manifested in a different manner. Bob has brought me in to provide feedback; those meetings felt like mini marital counseling sessions and we both walked away feeling more optimistic about our relationship and our future. OCD may not be curable but with the proper help it is manageable. We both feel confident in Dr. Murman's proven ability to provide a solution.

In other words, we would refer all our friends and family to Solutions Counseling Service if they were in need of someone to walk them through the process of growth and change!


I had a horrible fear of needles.  When given an injection or having blood taken, I would often panic to the point where I would pass out, vomit, or both.  Even thinking about having blood taken or getting stitches was often enough to make me feel dizzy and panicky.  

Bob taught me several self-hypnosis techniques to help me deal with the anxiety and prevent the fainting.  He also helped me determine what had triggered the fear in the first place and deal with it.  He is very flexible; if one technique isn't working or the patient thinks something else will work better, he is open to changing things up.  He will often suggest different ideas to determine which one resonates best with the patient and furthers treatment.

Before my sessions with Bob, I was told I would require several tests and subsequent procedures that would involve IVs and injections.  I couldn't even contemplate making the appointments for the tests.  After five sessions with Bob, I was able to make the first procedure appointment.  I have since made the other two!

Having the tools to control my needle phobia will greatly improve my health care, and, thus, my health. 

I highly recommend Bob.  Thank you so much for helping me!  J.B. From Yelp


I would highly recommend you to anyone. Your technique is very honest and straight forward. You make things clear and that is something that has not been experienced in the past when we have tried counseling before. Also, your friendly personality really helped us feel comfortable. D.H.


Hi Bob, to say that you have helped me, and have helped us, doesn't really do justice to you. Our relationship has never been better and, with your help, I have been able to slay some personal demons that were interfering in so many aspects of my life.  I've concluded that what allowed me to get to the roots of my "issues" was the atmosphere of complete trust you provided. I honestly feel your office is the ONLY truly non-judgmental environment I have ever experienced. Your respectful attitude, combined with insightful questioning, really forced me (in a good way) to face my fears and insecurities without all the macho bluster I used as a defense. As inadequate as it sounds, I do want to say "thank
you” for all you have done. “May God hold you in the palm of his hand.” B.B.


After years of thinking I could handle things myself, I finally got to a point where my life seemed out of control. Bob has been instrumental in giving me the tools I need to take control of my life. With these tools, I’ve been able to begin to find joy and contentment - things that seemed so far away just a few months ago. Bob’s non-judgmental attitude, as well as his humor and compassion have helped me to not only realize that I can turn to others for help when I need it, but that I have much more strength within me than I ever realized. M.W.E.


During the last 20 years or so, I have had to seek out counselors from time to time depending on what was going on in my life. I’ve always been grateful that I know when it’s time to get professional help. By far, Bob has been the most insightful and knowledgeable counselor I’ve ever had. He has helped me with couples therapy as well as individual counseling. His ability to listen, focus, ask the right questions, and help me get to the root of the problem quickly, is phenomenal. It was also unbelievable how he could remember everything about me, as if I was his only client. After every session I felt like I was moving forward and getting closer to a solution. So often in the past, I felt like I was spinning my wheels and not getting anywhere - for weeks. Bob’s goal is to end his relationship with his clients because they don’t need him any more – and he gets that accomplished! Thanks Bob, you’re a lifesaver. T.B.


Robert Murman is above all a great listener. As a counselor, he was able to help me get past the emotions that were holding me back and to realize the greater potential that a new perspective has. His ability to see the larger picture and access your needs so that you can see it also is what sets him apart. Very highly recommended. E.W.


The sessions have helped me immensely. I like the fact that I have learned and continue to learn more about disciplining my thoughts and redirecting them. Mr. Murman is very well-trained and knows how to respond in a way that is accurate, helpful and non-judgmental. He has a highly professional manner, yet personal manner that is a great combination. I feel highly respected as a person and feel I can trust him completely. Because of the sessions I feel extremely hopeful that I can make a full recovery from my depression symptoms. This is extremely positive for me. L.F.


If I had to rate my emotional state on a scale of one to ten- one being hopeless and ten being truly happy- I would say that at the beginning of my sessions, I was at about 2 or 3. But over the past few months, my time with Bob has helped to bring me up to a near constant 7 or 8. Bob has been very insightful, understanding and compassionate. I believe he individualizes his style for each client, so that he speaks in a language we all can hear and understand. Bob is not just helping me learn coping skills for my future; he is guiding me in a way that I feel like I've helped myself. I think this is paramount. Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day... teach a man to fish and feed him for a lifetime. M.S.
