There are so many things going on in the world nowadays that even seeking help can be overwhelming. Sometimes, we don't know where to start.

Are you struggling with relational challenges? When you discover the way you were wired up from birth, you can more effectively relate with others, meet life's challenges, and fulfill your chosen purpose and destiny. Do you find yourself dependent on substances or unhealthy relationships? Are you using unhealthy ways of medicating the pain that you carry? The hurts of the past may be keeping you from fully living in the present, but the experience of God's unconditional love and grace offer healing and freedom.

It takes courage to come to therapy and most people do so when life seems unbearable. Others come because they want to grow in some way and believe therapy can make a difference in their lives. My ideal client is someone who is self-motivated and ready to "work" in therapy. I work with men, women and older adolescents. I work best with individuals who are ready for positive changes in their lives and who want to improve the quality of their life and their relationships.

Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, (1943), "The Theory of Human Motivation", reads: if a person’s basic needs (food, shelter, physical/mental safety) and social needs (love, belonging, self-worth, sense of purpose) are not fulfilled, that person will experience frustration and will “pivot” on a level of need that appears easiest to satisfy. Which level of need are you "stuck" on? Are you bound by anxious, fearful and mind-binding thoughts? Freedom is a goal that can be attained.

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.
