Life not feeling right, something is just not fitting, or working, relationships feels on edge or unavailable. There is a large stigma around therapy and mental health and it is saddening as it keeps too many people away from a trained ear that can help untangle and heal those things we carry that are in our way. You know, procrastination, or listening to our partner, or getting that promotion at work, or understanding why your team isn't performing and thriving. Perhaps life just isn't making sense in general. Or we feel that we just don't fit and no one can possibly understand. Help is here.

In my life I have travelled. I have been unbalanced and hurt. I have felt shame and had loss and I have been there longer than I wanted. That is to say, I have been stuck. And now I am not stuck. I have a life that is full of ups and downs, wins and losses. I still face challenge, injustice and loss however, what I have learned and applied along the way has changed how those things look and feel. So, I set out to learn how I could help others... (you), get unstuck. After 9 years in the field of addiction I took up official studies achieving my certification of registered professional counsellor (RPC-C) with the C.P.C.A.

Reality Therapy Counsellors
Is reality therapy evidence-based?
Reality therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating certain mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments like cognitive behavioural or acceptance and commitment therapies. However, some research does indicate that reality therapy might be helpful for people with addiction, and may be effective in treating social anxiety in young people.
How long does reality therapy last?
Reality therapy is less structured when compared with psychoanalysis, for example. Reality therapy is more open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to two times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. Individuals can also practice the principles of reality therapy long after treatment has ended.
Does reality therapy work?
Reality therapy can help a person manage concerns such as eating disorders, addiction, substance use, anxiety, phobias, and relationship difficulties. This type of therapy encourages a person to be accountable for their behaviours. This therapy may offer benefits that are hard to measure. Reality therapy can be useful in one-on-one therapy or in group sessions. This method may be used with children, families, and adults.
What are the limitations of reality therapy?
This therapy is person-centered or client-centered, and the therapist focuses on choices made by the individual in the present day. The therapist privileges the individual’s perspective over others. This format may feel frustrating for individuals seeking a more structured approach; certainly, no one therapy type will work for every client.
