Getting to know Ilham Tahir

Hi there, I'm Ilham! I am a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in women's mental health. I hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Phoenix. I have extensive experience working with patients with dual diagnoses, including substance abuse, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, adjustment disorders, and personality disorders. I believe every client is an individual with unique experiences and needs, so it is critical to personalize treatment based on their strengths, needs, and readiness for change. My approach I primarily use cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT, and client-centered approaches. My focus I primarily work with adult men and women, with most of my experience centered on women's issues and personality disorders. My communication style I am soft-spoken and engage my clients by meeting them where they are. My journey to mental healthcare I worked in tech for a while during my time as an intern. I have always had a passion for the helping field and found a career as a clinician to be rewarding. My goals for you I ask clients about their goals and explore how I can help them reach those goals through appropriate interventions. My first session with you The first session typically includes an introduction, discussing limits of confidentiality, reviewing your records, and exploring your goals and previous therapy experiences.
