- Trauma

- Grief/Loss

Resolving these challenges can often be undermined by the resistance to self-acceptance/accountability, relational connection, and the promotion of profound transformation. Meeting the client where they are is a key to the clinical approaches utilized such as: Narrative therapy, Cognitive-Behavioral therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief therapy (SFBT), Emotionally Focused Couples therapy (EFT), Humanistic, Family Systems, and Psychoeducation and a host of creative therapeutic modalities.
