About Faith

Faith Davidson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, mood concerns, addiction, and parenting questions. Her tone is practical and direct, aimed at parents and caregivers who want clear steps they can use right away.

In sessions she listens first and then helps set small, doable goals. She draws on approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered techniques.

Background and approach

Those tools are used to teach coping skills, change unhelpful thinking, and build routines that reduce daily strain. Faith pays attention to life transitions and losses as well as ongoing issues like sleep trouble, anger, and caregiver stress. She also works with concerns related to identity and relationships, including LGBT matters, intimacy, and family conflict.

When needed she includes motivational strategies to support change and recovery from substance use. Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Parents who need practical strategies will find short-term skill building alongside deeper work on attachment, abandonment, and communication problems.

She also addresses complex situations such as chronic illness, trauma, or co-occurring conditions. Faith practices in Florida and offers sessions using video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. She uses tools that fit each person and helps clients try different approaches until they find what works.

How Faith’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s needs. It emphasizes understanding your perspective, building trust, and shaping goals that feel manageable in real life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings connect and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns and improve mood and daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with clients about their goals and try methods that fit their situation and preferences. This happens together so changes feel realistic and are adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Faith offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give options for real-time conversation or shorter check-ins. These formats allow for continuity of care and flexible ways to practice skills between meetings while accommodating different comfort levels and schedules.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
