Let's face it, families struggle & face challenges but there are times you feel your children & challenges are beyond what most would consider normal. You hear others talk about their experiences with their children & you know that it's never been like that for you. The issues they are having at school, with peers & at home are impacting your mental clarity, relationships & lust for life. You don't know who to ask for help; nor who to trust. It leaves you feeling angry, scared, resentful, & ultimately alone. You don't know if therapy can help, but you're willing to do whatever it takes.

You’re so tired. And you’re tired of saying you’re tired. Especially after these exhausting COVID years. It’s so hard to turn your mind off from your worries and your endless to-do list. You’re overwhelmed, wondering when things will get easier. You provide so much care to others, but you get lost in the shuffle. Your temper flares easily. So much has changed in your life, and you wonder if you will feel like yourself again. Care work is incredibly hard and often invisible, and caring for yourself in the midst of that is even harder.

As an Advanced Certified Core Energetics Practitioner, I work with clients who are looking for a better way of being and living. We often have challenges with depression, anxiety, shame, fear, and traumas, and some of us look for something more out of life, asking, "Is this all there is?" Talk therapy can be valuable in gaining a cognitive understanding of WHY you feel as you do, and it can provide some relief. But how much does it change your lived experience? Core Energetics involves work processing thoughts, feelings, and emotions through your body in a way that releases "stuckness" and energy for purposes that you direct.

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.
