About Dr. Michelle Bengston
Dr. Michelle Bengtson entertained several dreams in her life: becoming a doctor, having children and writing a book. She studied neuroscience, becoming a board-certified neuropsychologist almost 30 years ago. A few years later, the birth of her first son brought her second dream into reality. God planted the third dream in her heart as a young girl. A few years ago, she published her first book, multi-award winning author of Hope Prevails: Insights From a Doctor’s Personal Journey Through Depression. Since then, she authored three more books including the award-winning Hope Prevails Bible Study and Breaking Anxiety’s Grip: How to Reclaim the Peace God Promises. Her next book, Today Is Going to be a Good Day: 90 Promises From God to Start Your Day Off Right, is scheduled for release through Revell in May, 2022. She expanded her vision and became an international speaker, podcast host, and coach with a mission to restore hope, renew minds and empower others to live in their God-given identity.

A crisis, such as Covid-19, can hit suddenly and hard, but we can reduce stress and conflict while keeping our family safe when we focus on helping our children know how to work together as a family. Every crisis is an opportunity to teach our children how to navigate the trials they face.
You aren’t a label! Sometimes we can mistakenly use assessments as defining labels for ourselves and others rather than as tools designed to help us understand how those we live and work with think, feel, and process the world they live in. Learn how to use the information on personalist and strengths assessment to support and encourage others.
Giving grace to ourselves and loving others is easier when we know how they are uniquely created. CliftonStrengths, Love Languages, and the Meyers/Briggs assessments can help you understand how others think and process the world around them. You can learn how to love other well using personality and strengths assessments.
