About Faith

Rev. Faith Richardson is a Licensed Professional Counselor with ten years of clinical experience based in Georgia.

Background and approach

She combines formal training in mental health counseling and pastoral care to support people facing depression, anxiety, relationship strains, addiction concerns, bipolar symptoms, compassion fatigue, and challenges with self-esteem. Her background includes work in psychiatric and drug treatment settings, major hospitals, and church-based counseling, which informs a broad, person-focused approach.

Faith centers therapy on building rapport and offering unconditional positive regard, then tailors methods to each person’s needs. She commonly draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to explore thinking patterns and Solution-Focused Therapy to identify practical steps toward change, while also integrating client-centered principles that emphasize empathy and collaboration.

Sessions are intended to help clients clarify goals, address stressful life transitions, and strengthen coping strategies. Clients who choose Faith can expect a flexible, values-aware clinician who attends to both practical problems and deeper personal or spiritual concerns.

She welcomes international clients and holds licensure in Georgia, offering a blend of clinical and pastoral perspectives to guide people through recovery and growth.

Approaches That Guide Online Counseling

Rev. Faith Richardson commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy into her online practice. CBT involves identifying and working with unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to build practical coping skills. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on clients' strengths and small, achievable steps to move forward, often helping with relationship concerns and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is collaborative: she works with each client to determine which methods best fit their goals, preferences, and current concerns. Together they evaluate what techniques feel useful and adjust the plan over time to reflect progress and changing needs.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make scheduling more flexible for people in different time zones or with busy days. These formats allow ongoing, accessible contact that supports regular work on goals, check-ins between sessions, and continuity of care for clients who travel or live outside Georgia.
