I use a strength-based approach which emphasizes working together to uncover solutions to barriers.
So often, we live our lives focused on surviving and just making it through to the next day. Life stressors, unresolved trauma, pain, excessive worrying, unfulfilled dreams, and hopelessness can make this way of living seem ordinary. Even though a survival mind-set can seem unbreakable, it is possible to take control and create a more fulfilling life. Therapy can provide the space to make this shift possible and help guide you on the path to finding your thriving life.

I am passionate about helping people to progress on their life journey toward wellbeing. I believe most of out distress and conflicts stem from maladaptive understanding of self and our perceived needs, of others, the world, and of God. Accordingly, a step toward health begins with increasing self awareness and insight into ourselves, our problems, and the ability to see the reality in growing clarity which result in changed thoughts, feelings and actions.

Strength-Based Therapists
How does strength-based therapy work?
During strength-based therapy sessions, the therapist will ask about an individual’s experiences of stress, pain, or trauma with the goal of orienting the client to view themselves as a survivor rather than a victim, and focusing on their strengths rather than on their weaknesses. In framing a client’s personal narrative along these lines, the therapist and client work together to identify existing skills that can be harnessed.
Is strength-based therapy evidence-based?
Strength-based therapy is an evidence-based treatment that has been studied extensively and shown to be effective across domains. The treatment has been found to be particularly effective in helping individuals who are experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health concerns. Strength-based therapy has been used by therapists to help clients for more than 60 years.
How long does strength-based therapy last?
There’s no precise timeline for strength-based therapy. The duration of treatment depends on the individual’s specific needs and goals and the severity of their concerns. Some individuals may find they achieve their therapeutic goals quickly, while others might benefit from ongoing support and guidance in order to continue progressing.
How effective is strength-based therapy?
Clinical research and decades of practice have shown strength-based therapy to be an effective treatment to improve mental health and well-being for many conditions. The treatment can engender a sense of connection and collaboration between the therapist and the individual, fostering a positive therapeutic relationship. For individuals with narcissistic tendencies, strength-based therapy may be less effective, as the focus on the individual’s strengths may undermine the work needed to honestly assess the challenges the individual faces.
