Timothy J. Hayes Psy. D.

Timothy J. Hayes, Psy.D. is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in Illinois with thirty years of therapy experience. He began working with children and their families as a probation officer in Indiana in 1974 and has continued to work in the field of individual and family therapy ever since. Dr. Hayes helps people learn to focus on things they actually can control to make their lives more safe, sane and rewarding, regardless of what other people choose to do. He has post graduate training in a variety of advanced techniques including; Depth Oriented Brief Therapy, EMDR I&II, and Neuro-Emotional Technique. He routinely tells his new patients, (and anyone who will listen), that there have to be two fundamental pieces in place for any therapy to be effective. 1) You must have a therapist who knows what he or she is doing. 2) You must have someone with whom you are comfortable. If either of these two things is missing the therapy cannot be successful. As a psychologist in private practice Dr. Hayes has dedicated himself to working with other professionals, including several female co-therapists, to provide children and their families the resources needed to make the changes they want to make. Dr. Hayes has extensive experience working with individuals and families who have experienced severe trauma whether the trauma was recent or in the distant past. These traumas include things like, physical abuse, verbal abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, incest, neglect, and severe physical trauma. As a psychologist and a father, Timothy J. Hayes, Psy.D. has written extensively about power struggles and authored the Power Struggle Handbook (currently out of print), and the Parenting Power Struggle Handbook which is available from his web site and other select locations.
