Our Team

Cantor Rabbi Rob Jury, PhD, BCC, CRADC, LCPC, NCC

Credentials & Training: I have a Masters of Arts (MA) in Counseling from Northwestern University, in Evanston, Illinois, and a Masters of Counseling in Narrative Therapy & Community Work (MC-NTCW) from the University of Melbourne in Melbourne, Australia, and I am a doctoral candidate studying Counselor Education and Supervision at Northern Illinois University where I wrote my dissertation on using Midrash Therapy with Jewish people in recovery. I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), a National Certified Counselor (NCC), a Certified Reciprocal Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CRADC), and a Board Certified Chaplain (BCC) with the Neshama Association of Jewish Chaplains and the Association of Professional Chaplains. I completed a Clinical Pastoral Education Residency (CPE) at Advocate Lutheran General Hospital where I served on the critical care team and as the chaplain at the Advocate Addiction Treatment Program. I have a graduate certificate in Jewish Leadership with a concentration in Supervision from a joint program of Spertus Institute of Jewish Learning & Leadership and Northwestern University. I completed training in the use of the Mandala Assessment Research Instrument (MARI) and I am a Veriditas Advanced Trained and Certified Labyrinth Facilitator with experience facilitating the therapeutic use of labyrinths in inpatient, residential, and outpatient treatment of substance use disorders.

Clinical Counseling Experience: My clinical counseling experience is with mental health disorders, people recovering from injury or illness, people recovering from substance use disorders and non-substance related addictions, marriage and family counseling, survivors of religious and spiritual trauma, and people looking to integrate religion and/or spirituality into their counseling sessions.

Philosophical/Theoretical Approach to Therapy: My approach to supervision is grounded in narrative practices and rooted in traditions of rabbinic counseling. These practices include a belief that you have the skills and capabilities to change your relationship with a problem so that it no longer dominates your life. Together we can collaborate on re-telling the story of your strengths and resiliency to make it easier to access your skills and capabilities. You can access a series of case studies that reflect some of my work using Jewish metaphors in narrative practice with people resisting addictions at the InternationalJournal of Narrative Therapy and Community Work.
