Tirzah Anastasia Malaihollo is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who creates a culturally responsive therapeutic environment for clients of all ages navigating life's most challenging circumstances. With specialized expertise in trauma recovery, marital relationships, and mood disorders, she combines evidence-based clinical approaches with cultural sensitivity and faith integration when desired. Tirzah works effectively with both adults and children, bringing particular insight to trauma healing, anxiety management, depression treatment, and grief processing. Her multicultural background and bilingual capabilities enhance her ability to connect with clients from diverse communities.

Her therapeutic approach integrates multiple evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Solution-Focused techniques. This comprehensive toolkit allows her to address both immediate symptoms and underlying patterns, adapting her methods to each client's unique needs. For clients who value faith as part of their healing journey, Tirzah skillfully incorporates spiritual perspectives, offering a truly integrated approach that honors both psychological principles and religious beliefs.

With a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology and specialized training in EFT and EMDR, Tirzah brings robust academic foundations and continuing professional development to her therapeutic practice. Her experience extends beyond traditional therapy to include working with children with special needs and teaching college courses and seminars on counseling techniques and the integration of biblical and psychological principles. As a therapist with a minority background herself, she brings heightened cultural awareness to her work, creating a therapeutic space that respects each client's unique identity and lived experience.

Outside the therapy room, Tirzah finds joy in family life with her husband and two toddlers, with another little one on the way. Her appreciation for Korean dramas and culinary/mukbang videos reflects her interest in diverse cultural expressions and shared human experiences. Tirzah's commitment to community is expressed through her service as a Sunday School teacher and worship leader in her Indonesian church, where she contributes her gifts to nurture spiritual growth in others—mirroring the holistic approach she brings to her clinical work.
