Approach to Counseling & Coaching
While various approaches and models are used, the foundation of "Mastering ME" Coaching is anchored in the tenets of:
Humanistic and Existential Models: (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK64939/).
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Model (https://www.mayoclinic.org/tes...) - This model helps you discover the connections between Events, Thoughts, Feelings, and Behaviors, which is essential for addressing issues like anxiety, depression, and grief. Know better, do better!
Strengths-Based Approach - We emphasize that the "Problem" is not the only focus. Even in our lowest moments, there are many positives and strengths within us that may be hard to see. Seeking mental health counseling can provide a valuable perspective!
Human Needs Models (Various) - We assist you in framing and understanding each behavior as a means to meet an underlying human, emotional need. This approach fosters validation and forgiveness (for yourself and others), allowing us to explore healthier ways to fulfill those needs.
Life-Balance Model - We will help you identify the areas of your life that matter to you and assess the challenging balance between them all!
Values-Based Model - Our values influence our thoughts, stir our emotions, and propel us into action. Do you know your values? Understanding how to create a value-based life that aligns with YOUR core values is crucial. We can guide you in building a more intentional, values-based life, which also supports better life balance!
Gottman Methodology - This is utilized for all relationship-based coaching or counseling.
Modified 12-Step Programming - This is offered for those facing substance or addiction-related issues.
