About

Hello, my name is Talona (rhymes with iguana) Talbot and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been licensed and practicing since 2006. My approach to working with people is built on open-minded compassion, recognizing that everyone has value and is doing the best they can in the moment. I will offer you empathy and understanding, and will hold you accountable as needed. Ultimately it is you who has the power to improve your life.
I have a great deal of experience working with individuals and families who are involved in the criminal justice system. I have also worked with people suffering from trauma and abuse, substance abuse issues, anxiety, and various forms of relationship challenges. I have experience working with LGBTQ concerns as well.
I work from a solution-focused approach, with some CBT and systems theory approaches included. I will work with you to identify the best outcomes for your life through our interactions. I will help you learn how to approach life, and the challenges it can bring, in ways that leave you feeling empowered and able to move through and move forward even after your therapy ends.
