My Approach
I've taken the time to build my therapist tool kit to support you in your healing journey.
I am informed by these evidence-based modalities and frameworks to provide therapy:
Narrative Therapy
A therapy approach that focuses on the stories we tell ourselves about our lives It emphasizes separating the person from the problem, meaning the therapist views the person as distinct from their struggles. This can be helpful because it allows people to see themselves as capable and resourceful, rather than defined by their challenges.
Life can feel like a story we tell ourselves; sometimes that story gets stuck. Maybe it's a narrative of anxiety, depression, or past hurts that hold you back. Narrative therapy offers a powerful way to rewrite your story.
Here's how it works:
- You are the Hero: Narrative therapy sees you as the expert of your own life, not defined by your problems. The therapist works alongside you to understand your unique story.
- Empowering Change: We all have many stories within us. Narrative therapy helps you explore new narratives that reflect your values and goals. This can unlock a sense of possibility and move you forward.
- Leave the Problem Behind: Narrative therapy separates the problem from the person. This means you're not your anxiety or depression – you're someone facing a challenge. This shift empowers you to see yourself as capable of overcoming obstacles.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Used in therapy to help people identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. Are negative thoughts running the show in your life? Do they fuel anxiety, and depression, or just make it hard to cope? CBT therapy can be your game-changer.
Imagine:
- Quieting the mental chatter that keeps you stuck.
- Developing healthy thinking patterns that empower you.
- Learning practical tools to manage stress and difficult situations.
CBT therapy is like a mental gym, building your resilience and equipping you with:
- Thought-Power Tools: Learn to identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns that hold you back. CBT helps you develop a more balanced and realistic way of thinking.
- Behavioral Shifts: Your thoughts and actions are connected. CBT helps you understand how your thinking influences your behavior and provides strategies to break free from unhelpful patterns that worsen your mood.
- Actionable Skills: CBT equips you with practical tools you can use every day, like relaxation techniques, problem-solving strategies, and communication skills. These skills empower you to manage challenges and improve your overall well-being.
Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)
Are you tired of talking about the past without seeing a clear path forward? Feeling overwhelmed by problems and unsure where to begin? Solution-focused therapy (SFT) can be your fast track to a brighter future.
Imagine:
- Ditching the endless analysis and focusing on actionable solutions.
- Building on your strengths and inner wisdom to overcome challenges.
- Setting clear goals and experiencing the satisfaction of progress.
SFT is a refreshingly short-term therapy that empowers you to take control and create positive change. Here's how:
- Future-Focused: Let's ditch the "why" and focus on the "what" and "how." SFT works with you to define what a fulfilling future looks like and equips you with the tools to achieve it.
- Strength-Based: You are more capable than you think! SFT recognizes your existing strengths and resources. Together, we'll tap into your inner wisdom to find solutions that work for you.
- Goal-Oriented: Stop feeling lost in a sea of problems. SFT helps you set clear, achievable goals, keeping you motivated and moving in the right direction.
