Faith Carlson

Faith Carlson is a compassionate counselor with a Master's degree and licensed graduate professional counselor credential. She understands that many individuals struggle with making changes and often feel stuck, especially when there is a disconnect between their internal values and external behaviors. This incongruence can hinder one's ability to live to their fullest potential. Faith recognizes that attachment to sources of suffering can obstruct self-acceptance and the ability to implement change. She firmly believes that every person has the ability for self-directed growth, particularly when given a supportive space and the gentle challenge of a trusting therapist.

With extensive experience in substance abuse and dual diagnoses, Faith specializes in addressing the core beliefs that underlie maladaptive attachments, mood disturbances, and unstable coping mechanisms. Employing a person-centered approach combined with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), she utilizes the therapeutic bond to facilitate deeper self-exploration while carefully examining the interplay of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Operating from a foundation of unconditional acceptance, Faith offers a safe haven for vulnerability and reflection. She knows that true awareness of oneself and their environment is crucial for accepting life's challenges and pursuing profound change. Faith admires the courage of those who choose to embark on this transformational journey, and she is dedicated to helping them navigate it with grace and support.
