“Sometimes, life hurts. Much as we hate it, perhaps that is necessary for us to grow and change. Therapy can help to heal the wounds and teach new skills for our future encounters with reality. Joy is not only possible but can be learned. I utilize an eclectic blend of therapy orientations to fit treatment to each individual's unique needs. I am trained in children's treatment, as well as in adult issues, including substance abuse.
A subspecialty is working with divorce or separation issues such as adjusting to change and loss, learning to co-parent effectively, supporting and minimizing damage to children, and preparing for stepfamily dynamics. I am often involved with court-related problems, for example, custody or parenting time recommendations. I hold Diplomate status from the National Association of Forensic Counselors and have been a speaker at their national conferences.
I have worked with adults, couples,families and children for thirty years, since 1987 as a psychotherapist. I encourage you to check my website for broader information about my background and philosophy: www.thaliasthoughts.com.
