Strength-Based Therapists in Flower Mound, TX
My approach to therapy is strength-based, person-centered, and solution-oriented.
I am a nationally-recognized bilingual licensed professional counselor who specializes in healing depression and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, building self-worth and self-esteem, developing social skills, resolving adolescent behavior concerns, and helping overcome pornography and addictions. I have a passion for the great outdoors and love camping, back-packing, canoeing, and rock-climbing; but I frequently encounter unforeseen challenges as I free-climb through life. As we are all exposed to the elements of life unexpectedly, I strive to help secure an anchor of hope, and bring support and understanding to your personal journey.

You're an empath, a highly sensitive person, HSP. The truth is, it's not your sensitivity that's hard to deal with—it's relationships. Especially figuring out your own needs beyond being useful to others. As an HSP, you probably put others' needs before your own from a young age. Adults praised you for your "maturity," and your friends liked you for your selflessness. You're burnt out, secretly resentful, and feeling depressed. You would have never thought those could be symptoms of "trauma." Now, you're ready to find a path where you can expand your energy instead of sacrificing it.

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.
