Sierra Tucson and Sober Living by the Sea Present:

"Learning Self-Acceptance: How to stop people-pleasing and start loving yourself"

May 9, 2018

Presenter:
Tanya Desloover, MA, LMFT, CADC II

Event Description:
In this first workshop of our alumni wellness series, we will take a look at codependency: Is everyone codependent? Where does codependency originate? Participants will gain a greater understanding of codependency, the role trauma and shame play, and the healing process. How does it affect families with an addicted loved one and what can be done about it? How does it affect those in recovery? How does it affect the ways in which we communicate? We will answer these questions and more, and learn how to embrace our own recovery from codependency.

About the Presenter: Tanya Desloover is a licensed marriage and family therapist, certified EMDR therapist, and Certified Drug & Alcohol Counselor, who has been with Sober Living by the Sea in Newport Beach, CA, since 2005, following a 20-year career at a pediatric research hospital with physicians treating chronic illness in children.

Tanya is passionate about helping clients and their families recover from the traumatic consequences of addiction. She recognizes the need to identify and treat co-occurring disorders, such as anxiety, depression, codependency, trauma, grief and loss, and life transitioning, which often accompany addiction, and realizes the need for support before, during, and/or after treatment, for the entire family.

Tanya is currently the director of clinical services for Sober Living by the Sea, overseeing clinical content and supervising the clinical staff.
