About Faith
Faith Hayes is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Indiana who helps people facing anxiety, stress, depression, and related struggles. She draws on 14 years of experience in social services and counseling to offer steady support when life feels overwhelming.
Faith describes therapy as a collaborative process. She aims to help people notice their strengths and build skills to manage panic, mood shifts, relationship strain, and parenting stress. She also addresses trauma, grief, addiction, and concerns around identity and intimacy.
Her approach mixes practical techniques and reflective work. She uses methods from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to teach coping tools and change unhelpful thinking. She also uses emotionally-focused and somatic ideas to help people connect feelings and bodily experience.
Faith emphasizes a person-centered way of working. Sessions are adapted to each person’s needs rather than following a fixed formula. She pays attention to life context, family of origin issues, and how past experiences like adoption, abandonment, or domestic violence shape current reactions.
People who choose Faith can expect straightforward conversation, collaborative planning, and attention to small, achievable steps. She encourages exploring life purpose, improving communication, and reducing panic symptoms through repeated practice and skill-building.
To begin, she asks prospective clients to complete the site questionnaire and schedule based on availability. Her background in social services informs a practical, compassionate style that focuses on real-world change.
Online approaches and how they help
CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments and behavioral changes. It is often used to reduce anxiety and panic symptoms by building coping skills and changing avoidance patterns.Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, emphasizes distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and clearer communication. These skills can help when strong emotions, anger, or relationship turmoil make daily life harder.
Faith views approach selection as a team effort. She will work with each person to decide which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning can include blending CBT, DBT, emotionally focused, or somatic techniques as progress unfolds.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments from different locations. It can also let people choose shorter check-ins or sessions that don’t require being on camera when that is more practical. Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking so you know which formats are available.
