My Approach to Therapy
“It all begins with the relationship.”
When I begin working with any client, my immediate focus is to grow and create a strong and safe therapeutic alliance.
No matter what stressor or concern brings you in, I will work with you in a supportive and collaborative manner to identify and implement solutions that work for you. I work from a strengths-based focus, as I believe all individuals inherently have the strengths they need to navigate and manage their concerns. I will work with you to identify and utilize your unique individual strengths to grow and change.
Solution-Focused Therapy
If you’re feeling lost and want actionable steps to improve your mental health, solution-focused therapy (SFT) might be the right approach for you. SFT is about focusing on the here and now, taking goal-oriented steps and creating attainable solutions. It works to highlight your strengths and helps you to utilize these strengths to feel better quickly. SFT can support positive change for people of any age, education level, or mental health struggle. I’ve used this approach to help many clients with depression, anxiety, trauma and relationship problems.
If we agree SFT is the right approach for you, we will begin by establishing clear, realistic and attainable goals. We will explore your past successes, strengths and coping mechanisms to make progress.
Through our work, you can grow and develop the tools to resolve your concerns now and confidently on your own in the future.
