Faizah Mawusi, LCSW
About me
"As we think, so we are." is a theme central to my counseling practice. As an individual therapist with over 29 years of experience, I have helped people arrive to a place of self-discovery. Together, my clients and I, are able to tap into traumatic experiences, family of origin issues, relationship challenges and explore their emotions to release, re-focus and find relief. I graduated from Loyola University in Chicago with a Masters of Social Work. My formal training, coupled with counseling hours have provided strategies and solutions to relieve depression, anxiety, emotional dysregulation and focus. Let's work together on your journey to health and healing.
