More about Faizah

  • LCSW

"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.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Even though we only “see” each other once a week, Faizah checks in with me daily through my journal readings, and as some in the middle of a family crisis, I really appreciate that! Especially because I trust and respect her insights and expertise. She listens, gives great feedback, and offers tools that work! Thank you, Faizah—you are an awesome mentor and coach!

Faizah has been a huge help. I came to her feeling lost and like I was never doing enough to achieve what I wanted. She made me realize that all the answers were already in me and she was a big part of helping them come up for me. She has helped me find more flow in my life and more grace. I’m extremely grateful.

I’ve only had one official session with Faizah but I can tell she really cares and wants to help. She asks me questions to help better understand my thoughts, feelings, and what is going on in my life so she can help me in the way I need. I would definitely recommend her to others!
