AMFT at Driftwood Therapy Collective

Hi, I’m Faith! I'm passionate about working with women who are ready to do the deep inner work and are curious about how their emotional and physical experiences are connected. I support clients who are navigating chronic health conditions or persistent pain, and are seeking more balance, clarity, and compassion for themselves. I also support women who are struggling with anxiety—whether it’s tied to health concerns or life transitions—and are looking for tools and insight to feel more grounded. For those who desire it, I offer a faith-based perspective and welcome Christian integration into the therapy process. My work blends cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to shift unhelpful thought patterns and somatic-based techniques to support mind-body awareness and regulation. I adapt each session to meet your unique goals and pace. I also offer couples therapy integrating the Gottman Method. You deserve a space where you can feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow at your own pace. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for change, I'm here to walk with you through the process. If this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out and schedule a free 15 minute consultation.
