Therapeutic approaches and online care tailored to you

Faith Hayes uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; this approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and impulse-related struggles. Additionally, Faith draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to explore attachment and relational patterns, supporting deeper connection and healing in couples and family work.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Faith collaborates with each person to assess goals, preferences, and needs, and she adapts methods over time so treatment remains relevant and effective. Clients are invited into a shared decision-making process to determine what feels most helpful.

Online therapy with Faith offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care, maintain momentum between sessions, and use therapeutic tools in day-to-day life while working with a licensed professional.
