What is strength-based psychotherapy for depression?

Most psychotherapies adopt the perspective that depression is a clinical disorder to be eliminated without considering the meaning or context of the symptoms. Therapy is usually focused on clarifying the client's impairments and working toward eliminating them. These approaches therefore keep the focus on clients' impairment rather than their strengths.

The practice of strength-based assessment encourages clinicians to pay attention to the strengths of the clients in addition to their impairments and disorders. The theory of strength-based assessment doesn't challenge the existence of an impairment. Rather, strength-based assessment looks for strengths alongside the diagnosis or impairment.
