My ideal client would be a person that has experienced a traumatic event like abuse. This traumatic experience has led to the client experiencing multiple personal struggles in their adult life including self-esteem issues, an eating disorder, depression, anxiety, marital conflict and an inability to cope with daily living. As a couple, they may be contemplating a major transition like adoption and this transition has triggered past pain due to their personal narrative.
First, I would listen to their story and discover false narratives that have developed using a trauma-informed lens. We'd begin to reframe those narratives together and apply coping strategies to help deal with daily living. Recognizing that there are daily triggers that occur and cognitive reframing will help with behavioural and thought modifications.
My preferred methods are Eclectic and Person-Centred. I believe that people are their own expert, but they may need some support to see their strengths. This approach helps us to grow and discover the ability to see change occur. My aim is to offer that support in a comfortable and laid-back atmosphere, offering a safe space for healing.
