An important part of therapy is acknowledging the times of change and transitions in one's life.

Taen has assisted and supported individuals, couples and families experiencing these various life transitions:

  • rebuilding communication
  • new relationship support
  • co-parenting
  • abuse recovery
  • self development
  • chemical dependency
  • divorce
  • incest recovery
  • grief and loss
  • family violence intervention
  • adoption (yours or of another into your family)
  • sexual identity issues

What Will Therapy Do For Me?

Therapy, psychotherapy or counseling, it doesn't matter what you call it, the focus is to work with you, supporting you in your process of change. Therapy offers you the chance to have the guidance of a trained professional during your times of stretching beyond previous limits, while you effect positive change in your life. Through the counseling process individuals and couples are able to explore their personal history, as well as their family history, then examine the relationship between that history and their current life. Therapy also offers an opportunity to practice different and positive ways of relating to yourself and to others.

Treatment For A Happier World!

Thought Field Therapy(TM) is a unique amalgam of Eastern Acupuncture and Western psychology combined with an understanding of the body's electro-magnetism.

In other words, your therapist will provide a treatment "algorithm" based upon the concerns you present (Western psychology), and show you how to stimulate specific treatment points on your body through light tapping (Eastern acupuncture - meridian system) to jump-start your basic internal healing energy (the body's electro-magnetism).
