I regularly use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in my practice to help clients recognize and challenge unhelpful thought patterns, develop healthier beliefs, and build effective coping skills. It's a structured, goal-oriented approach that I tailor to each client's needs, often combining it with other methods like mindfulness or trauma-informed care for a more holistic treatment.
I use Strengths-Based Therapy to help clients recognize and build on their existing strengths, rather than focusing solely on problems. This approach fosters confidence, resilience, and motivation by highlighting what’s working well in a client’s life. I often integrate it with other modalities like CBT to support goal-setting, boost self-esteem, and empower clients to navigate challenges using their own inner resources.
