About Farida
Farida Scriber, LPC, helps people facing stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, and LGBT-related concerns. She offers straightforward support for relationship struggles, compassion fatigue, and addictions. Her work also addresses panic, social anxiety, and feelings of isolation.
She keeps sessions open and nonjudgmental. Conversations focus on what feels most pressing and practical steps a person can try between meetings. She aims to make the first steps feel manageable and to honor the courage it takes to reach out.
Background and approach
Farida draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide the work. She listens for patterns such as attachment or control issues and helps clients find clearer ways to handle them. She also addresses body image, guilt and shame, and struggles with forgiveness.
Her background includes a decade of professional experience and a Licensed Professional Counselor credential in Georgia. She speaks English, French, and Haitian Creole, and she meets with people from other countries as well. Sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging.

How evidence-based approaches work online
Farida uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions with clear, practical goals. For example, she may use cognitive-based strategies that help people notice and gently change unhelpful thoughts that fuel anxiety and panic attacks. These approaches teach simple skills to reduce intense worry and improve daily functioning.She also focuses on trauma-informed methods that help people process painful events at a pace that feels safe. This work often includes grounding skills and pacing to reduce overwhelm while working through symptoms of post-traumatic stress or intense emotional reactions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try techniques together, and adjust the plan based on the person’s needs, goals, and comfort. Progress is tracked in small steps so the plan can be changed as needed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into daily life. Video calls are useful for deeper conversation and nonverbal cues, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can suit quick check-ins or brief reflections between sessions. These formats allow flexible scheduling and ongoing contact while working toward therapy goals.
