Forty years ago, I was trained as a Holistic Social Worker. I have worked across the America's with all age groups and numerous cultures. It is important to me to offer you person-centered communication to support you strengthening your own motivation to change. No one knows you like you do! There are many healing traditions out there and I will honor you and your choices.
My approach to counseling combines cognitive (thought) and somatic (body) techniques. I specialize in working with stress and trauma. We all have different responses to stress and trauma. I work with how your nervous system has been dysregulated, basic understanding that Trauma is in the nervous system not the event.
Symptoms arise when residual energy from the experience is not released from the nervous system. For instance, if your system is stuck on "High" you may be experiencing Rage, Hyperactivity, Elation/Mania, Anxiety, Panic and engaging in high-risk behavior. If your system is stuck on "Low" you could be experiencing Depression, Disconnection, Hopeless, Exhaustion and Numbness.
Together we will help your Nervous System Discharge!
I offer 15-minute free consultations to get us started.

Hello,
My name is Thalia Diaz, and I'm thrilled to have been connected with you!
As a therapist, I strive to create a warm, caring, and non-judgmental space to work with clients. I am aware that the times in which talk-therapy is sought out are also the times in which life feels overwhelming. Whatever that struggle may be, I believe that the human spirit is strong and capable of healing. I am passionate about working alongside my clients to heal those wounds and setting them up to be able to reach the goals they've set for their futures.
Though I have experience working with a wide range of people, my passion is to help young adults who struggle with trauma, depression, grief, and/or anxiety to process their life stories, strengthen their sense of identity, and develop the skills needed for the life they desire.

I'm curious to know what bought you here and what you would like to get out of therapy?
I specialize in helping individuals cope with the different kinds of losses: 1) Primary losses - the death of a loved one, friend or pet, break-up, separation, divorce, loss of job, loss of money, the victim of a crime and losses due to Covid19 2)Secondary losses - moving, illness, changes and success; 3) Limbo losses - Covid 19, waiting for the outcome of a test result, a lawsuit, separation, not knowing the outcome; 4) Complicated losses - primary, secondary and limbo losses going on at the same time. The reactions to loss could be feeling of anxiety, depression, helpless, fearful, emptiness, despair, pessimistic, irritability, anger, guilty, restlessness, loss of concentration, hope, motivation, energy, change in appetite, sleep pattern and a tendency to be more fatigued and error-prone. Are you experiencing any of those feelings? I also work with individuals who desire prayer before our sessions.

Each individual possesses the tools and skills necessary to thrive in life, but these skills need to be identified and honed in order to be put to use and effective. My approach to psychotherapy is to focus on strengths and build resilience as we address problems of living. Life is hard and together we can be brave. My treatment approach is based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (mindfulness, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy). My primary focus is holistic care, recognizing and treating the whole person.
I have spent over 12 years working as a mental health provider in the medical setting, dealing with life and death situations that affect my patients and their families. This work has allowed me to be present for the full range of human experience and recognize the strengths that each individual possesses. I have a background in philosophy, which informs my perspective on the challenges that people face and ways to resolve problems. In addition i have specialized experience working with LGBTI+ individuals.
I live in Phoenix and am a licensed psychotherapist in private practice in CA, AZ, and VA.

"There can be no transforming of darkness into light ... without emotion." -Jung
Emotional Intelligence (EI) is the core of my training. It embraces the belief systems of the past that affect your present. It's a state-of-mind that defines thinking that affects emotional awareness. To become aware is not to change, but to understand and accept. Carrying guilt or shame of the past, triggers the conflict of now. I don't offer advice - I offer choices - a chance to choose your own method of healing that fits you - not something others feel 'should' be.
Come. Sit. Talk. Let's wander your path together.

We do not need to struggle any longer against our old conditioned patterns... we must only recognize them for what they are.
Hello! My name Is Natalie Knight and I am an LCSW who is passionate about utilizing the strength of the therapeutic alliance as a support to enter into an exploration of what is beckoning for our attention at any given moment. I believe once we learn how to meet our emotions that we can clear ourselves of old past traumas or new ones.
Together I begin to assist the client with untangling the knots of beliefs that have held them back from truly knowing the peace and contentment that underlying all of our distrations is what we all so badly long for.
I have been doing this work for the past eight years professionally. I use a person-centered approach in my counseling practice which emphasizes that the client is the best authority for his/her own life and that the answers to his/her questions are inside of them. I serve as a mirror to reflect to the client the inherent wisdom that we uncover during our therapy sessions. I also rely strongly on EMDR as a modality to help client with the root of their trauma. This process has been quite effective for me in my search for understanding and I hope to be able to share it with others who feel called to this type of work with me as well.
