About Faith
Faith Clark is a licensed independent clinical social worker with 19 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction. She focuses on practical steps people can take right now to feel steadier and more able to manage day-to-day life. Her tone is direct and calm, aimed at people who need clear support rather than medical jargon.
Clark uses approaches that center the person and their goals.
Background and approach
She helps clients notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practices skills to reduce intense emotions. Sessions emphasize small, doable changes that add up over time. She also weaves in mindfulness to help people feel more present and less overwhelmed.
Her background includes long-term work with clients facing low self-esteem, caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, and challenges tied to chronic pain or illness. She also supports people dealing with attachment concerns, codependency, dissociation, and body image difficulties. That experience shapes how she plans sessions and sets priorities with each person.
Faith brings a strengths-based outlook to therapy. She helps people reconnect with their values and build routines that support recovery and resilience. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants to make change but feels stuck, offering a collaborative way to find momentum.
Sessions are offered from Minnesota and conducted in English through multiple online formats. People who want a clear, steady approach to anxiety, stress, or mood challenges will find practical tools and consistent support in her work.
How her approaches fit online therapy
Faith often blends client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a collaborative relationship so the person feels heard and understood. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that maintain anxiety or low mood and teaches practical skills to change them. Dialectical behavior therapy offers focused skills for regulating intense emotions, handling distress, and improving day-to-day coping.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, what has helped before, and what feels realistic now. Together they will try techniques, adjust the mix of methods, and focus on strategies that fit the person’s life and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people work through exercises and see nonverbal cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or camera use isn’t wanted. Live chat and text sessions are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or building skills between longer appointments. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, and other obligations while maintaining consistent progress.
