Welcome and thank you for taking the time to view my profile. My name is Faith and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Indiana. I have been in the social services field for over 10 years. I have much experience working with anxiety, depression, trauma, stress management, anger management, and relationship stressors.
Anyone who knows me would describe me as highly empathic, compassionate, caring and committed to making a difference in the lives of others. I have experience in both roles of therapy, as therapist and client. I understand the difficulty in seeking help, being vulnerable and facing personal struggles. I value and respect the lives of each of my clients and admire the strength and resiliency that I am privileged to see in my work every day. In our work together, I will help you connect to these strengths within you and work collaboratively to help overcome the struggles that you face. I believe that each of us has a greater purpose in this life and counseling is one of many tools to help achieve our highest potential.
My counseling approach is eclectic, meaning that I draw from a combination of counseling theory and techniques. Each of us is unique in our thoughts, feelings and worldview; therefore, I believe therapy should not be a one-size-fits-all approach. I am continuously researching treatments and perspectives from professionals in the counseling field, and utilize strategies from a holistic perspective, integrating mind, body and spirit for optimum health.
If you feel ready to take the next step to a more fulfilling life, I would love to accompany you along that journey!

I have been with Faith for over four and a half years and she has been beyond helpful. When I started therapy I was at a really tough point in my life. I am now in a completely different, much healthier point in my life but still healing. Faith has given my tools and helped to build my skills to a point where I no longer recognize the person from before - in the best possible way. Everyone needs someone to talk to!

Faith is very insightful, and understanding. After two sessions I started to understand what stage of grief I was experiencing. She also gave me tools to relieve my anxiety.

Faith was able to get to the heart of my concerns very quickly, and intuitively knew when to check in about certain parts of my life. In just a short time, she was able to guide me toward resources that I will be putting to use for years to come. She gave me exactly the re-framing that I needed at this point in my life, and I'm in a much better emotional space thanks to her empathy and guidance.
