About Faith

Rev. Faith Richardson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with ten years of practice. She combines counseling and pastoral experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationship or family concerns. Her background includes hospital and treatment center work as well as ministry settings, and she speaks English.

Her training includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, and a Master of Divinity focused on pastoral care and counseling. That mix of clinical and pastoral education informs how she meets people where they are. She has also completed Clinical Pastoral Education placements in hospital and VA settings.

In sessions she centers the person first and uses a flexible approach. Client-Centered Therapy guides how she listens and builds rapport. She also works with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy tools when they fit a person’s needs.

Practical issues like compassion fatigue, bipolar mood concerns, self-esteem struggles, and grief are part of her practice. She draws on experience from psychiatric and drug treatment programs as well as church-based counseling to tailor sessions.

Her style emphasizes respect, unconditional positive regard, and clear collaboration on goals. People who want a counselor who mixes clinical methods with pastoral sensitivity may find her a good match. To start, use the site process to match and schedule a first session.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building rapport first. It helps when someone needs a calm, accepting space to talk about stress, grief, relationship strains, or self-esteem concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It offers practical exercises and small steps to test new ways of coping with anxiety, depression, or addictions.

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying clear goals and small changes that move a person toward them. It is often useful when someone wants focused, goal-driven work over a shorter period.

Choosing the right mix of these approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and daily life to decide which methods to try. Sessions evolve based on what is working and what the person needs next.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling around work or family, skipping travel time, and fitting check-ins into a busy day. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. The focus is on making counseling fit day-to-day life while using Client-Centered, CBT, and Solution-Focused tools to address the concerns named above.
