Have you been struggling with trying to figure out a better way to manage your life and situations? Do you find it hard to have motivation to do things? Do you struggle with adversity and managing stressors? Do you have issues with addictions? I try to be non-judgmental and supportive to validate people and help them learn new ways of coping and living to improve their quality of life. I also run Art Therapy groups to increase insight and mindfulness about symptoms/coping skills, which have been effective in improving moods and decreasing stress, creating a sense of community, and a family away from family (but not during COVID).

Women often face a unique sense of challenges. Some of these challenges can occur because of traditional gender roles and expectations; body image issues; or finding a balance between work and family. Other women experience struggles with infertility, pregnancy loss, postpartum depression, and parenthood. Yet others experience anxiety, depression, and grief. Although all of these experiences can be part of a woman’s life, finding someone to provide support can be challenging.

The busyness of your life fools you into thinking that everything is going along splendidly. The pressure you feel every day never seems to go away. You sense the floodwaters of being overwhelmed as you say “yes” to one more thing you don’t have time for right now. Guilt arises around the fact that your energy level is so low that you have to say “no” when your child asks you to read them a book. Wondering if you will ever get out of the “rat” race you call your life, you grab for the bag of chips and start binge watching another episode of your favorite show. Maybe you will have the energy to make some changes another day.

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.
