About Arthalia

Dr. Arthalia Weekes is a Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker (LSCSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Kansas with 18 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem struggles. Her practice also addresses issues such as abandonment, blended family tensions, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and communication problems.

Weekes focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. Sessions tend to look at what is happening now and what patterns developed over time. She listens for how relationships, work, health, and money add pressure, and then helps people name small, realistic changes they can try between sessions.

Her background includes long experience in mental health settings and working with people from diverse backgrounds. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and mixes approaches based on what each person needs. This means she may use different tools for trauma, mood, or anxiety concerns rather than a single method.

In sessions, Weekes aims to clarify patterns and teach skills for handling strong emotions, making decisions, and repairing communication. She pays attention to how past losses or family dynamics show up in current relationships. The work is practical and often focuses on improving day-to-day functioning.

People who come for help can expect straightforward discussion of goals, clear suggestions to try between meetings, and regular check-ins about what is and isn't working. To begin, readers are asked to use the site's matching process and schedule an initial visit.

BHow sessions work

Evidence-based approaches and online sessions

Dr. Weekes uses several evidence-based therapeutic techniques and tailors them to the person in front of her. For trauma-focused work she applies therapies that address distressing memories and bodily responses, helping people reduce the intensity of triggers and regain daily functioning. For mood and anxiety concerns she uses approaches that teach emotion regulation, problem-solving, and behavioral skills to manage worry and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will review what has helped before, discuss goals, and suggest methods to try. Decisions about which techniques to use are collaborative and adjusted based on progress and preferences.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions useful because they can fit meetings around work, medical appointments, or caregiving responsibilities. Online meetings can also make it easier to have shorter check-ins by phone when bandwidth or quiet time is limited. Ask about available formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so scheduling fits your routine and needs.
