Reality Therapy

Reality therapy is a client-centered approach that focuses on improving your current relationships and circumstances rather than dwelling on the past. It is based on the belief that our most important need is to feel loved and to belong. When we build strong, meaningful connections with others, we are better able to meet our other basic needs and create fulfilling lives.

This form of therapy teaches that our behavior is the result of the choices we make. While we can’t always control how we feel, we can control how we think and act. The choices we make either help or hinder our ability to meet our needs and reach our goals.

Reality therapy also incorporates Choice Theory, which emphasizes personal responsibility. Instead of focusing on mental health diagnoses, this approach helps people take charge of their lives by learning to make more effective choices that lead to positive change.
