Dr. Mark Sharp is a psychologist who specializes in working with relationship issues. He has been working with couples, families and individuals for more than twenty years. In 2006 he founded the Aiki Relationship Institute in Oak Brook, IL, whose mission is to help people create the best possible relationships in all aspects of their lives. In addition to his commitment to helping people with their relationships, Dr. Mark is dedicated to the training of new professionals. He has supervised students from several local universities over the years and teaches a class on family and couples therapy every year at Rosalind Franklin University.
Dr. Mark is happily married to Debbi, an elementary school teacher. They like to travel and try out new foods and restaurants. Dr. Mark regularly practices the martial art of aikido, in which he holds a first degree black belt. Interestingly enough, the aiki in aikido is the same one as in the Aiki Relationship Institute. But that is another story.
