About Faye

Faye White is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama with 20 years of experience. She focuses on family and parenting matters among a broad set of concerns like stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and career-related challenges. Her work centers on clear, practical steps parents and caregivers can take to manage day-to-day pressures.

She uses straightforward language and helps people set realistic goals they can act on. Her style is warm and attentive.

Background and approach

She listens to the full story, then helps sort through immediate problems and longer-term patterns. Sessions aim to identify options and next steps rather than rely on labels. Faye emphasizes small, doable changes that match each person’s life and values.

Faye draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive space where people feel heard. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Solution-Focused Therapy is part of her toolbox for building simple plans and monitoring progress.

She has worked with parents and families facing blended family issues, caregiver stress, aging and geriatric concerns, and divorce or separation. Other areas she addresses include abandonment, communication problems, control issues, forgiveness, and hoarding. These topics are explored with practical steps and goal-setting.

Faye helps people consider options and set realistic goals. She supports clients as they change behaviors to match what they want in life. Conversations are collaborative and grounded in everyday choices, not jargon.

How her approaches translate to online family work

Faye commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when working with parents and family concerns. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person’s perspective so they feel heard and can explore what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the thoughts and everyday actions that keep problems in place and teaches concrete ways to change them.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they choose methods that fit the family’s schedule and what they want to accomplish, adjusting as progress is made.

Online sessions offer flexibility for busy families. Video calls let people meet face-to-face from home, phone sessions remove travel time, and live chat or text-based messaging can support short check-ins or homework review. These options make it easier to fit counseling around work, school, and caregiving responsibilities while keeping the focus on practical steps and goal progress.

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.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
