Faith Clark , LICSW

Faith Clark is a licensed clinical social worker with nearly two decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and addiction. She practices in Minnesota and brings a calm, straightforward style to sessions. Her work often addresses women’s issues and the life pressures that come with caregiving and chronic health problems.

Faith focuses on practical tools people can use between sessions. She listens closely and helps clients notice patterns that keep problems going. Then she offers simple strategies to change those patterns and build healthier habits.

Her approach blends client-centered care with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. She also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing to support motivation and emotional regulation. Sessions emphasize real-world skills rather than abstract theory.

Faith has spent many years supporting people facing low self-esteem, relationship and attachment concerns, and the emotional fallout from abandonment or loss. She also works with those who struggle with codependency, communication problems, and symptoms related to dissociation or trauma.

People coping with chronic pain, long-term illness, or caregiver stress will find an emphasis on pacing and coping strategies. She helps clients break big problems into manageable steps and set achievable goals.

Overall, Faith aims to create an accepting, strength-based space where clients can regain control, build resilience, and move toward clearer life purpose.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Faith often combines client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy to address day-to-day struggles. Client-centered therapy means she listens without judgment and helps clients set goals that matter to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and depression.

She also frequently uses dialectical behavior therapy skills to help with emotional regulation and coping when feelings feel overwhelming. DBT skills teach practical techniques for calming, tolerating distress, and improving communication in stressful moments. Together these methods are practical and aimed at building skills people can use between sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Faith collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She adjusts her plan over time based on how well strategies are helping and on client preferences.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow a face-to-face feel while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins, quick skill practice, or people who prefer typing. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
