I have 22 years working in mental health and my focus is on clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, self harm, suicidal ideation, grief, and trauma. My clients are wanting to increase their coping skills, increase self esteem, and minimize negative feelings and behaviors such as suicidal ideation or self harm. The goals of therapy are discussed at the first session and the client decides what will be most beneficial for them. As the therapist, my goal is to ensure it is manageable, discuss expectations, and how to move forward in the counselling process. Counselling is a tool to be used when needed.

Too often, people struggle and suffer needlessly in life. They dwell on the negative, struggling in pain and indecision. They might feel overwhelmed by negative emotions – anger at injustices, pain at injuries, grief over loss. Perhaps they feel saddened and discouraged over repeated disappointments in life or work. They might be experiencing anxiety, confusion, sadness, or depression. But it doesn’t have to be this way. There is a way through this maze of negative emotions. Change is possible.

Beginning (clinical) therapy can be frightening, and finding a therapist is often overwhelming. While you may be ready to begin the therapeutic journey, interviewing therapists to find the right fit can feel intolerable. I offer a free 30-minute online consultation to make this process easier. I believe that within the first few minutes, you will know if we are a good fit and whether or not we will work well together. Most people feel relieved after the first session because they experience a release of a buildup of emotion they’ve been holding on to for days, weeks or months.

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.
