About Faith

Faith Hayes is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Indiana with 14 years of experience. She works with adults facing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, and addiction. She also lists family of origin issues, trauma and abuse, grief, and mood concerns among her focus areas.

Faith draws on a mix of approaches rather than one single method. In sessions she uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to help people notice patterns and try new responses. She also brings emotionally-focused ideas to conversations about relationships and somatic techniques when the body is part of the concern.

Her style is straightforward. She treats therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s goals guide which techniques are used. Sessions often include clear, doable strategies for coping with overwhelming feelings, managing anger, or addressing anxiety and panic symptoms.

Faith’s background includes many years in social services and clinical work. That experience informs how she talks about parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and the effects of childhood roles on adult life. She also works with issues like abandonment, adoption and foster care questions, codependency, and communication problems.

People who are looking at patterns from the family they grew up in will find she addresses family of origin issues directly. To begin, prospective clients follow the site’s matching process and schedule a first session after completing a short intake questionnaire.

How her approaches translate to online work

Faith commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in her practice. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and building concrete strategies to change them, which helps with anxiety, panic, and depression. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation and coping skills to reduce intense reactions and improve interpersonal effectiveness, useful for anger, mood instability, and relationship stress.

She also draws on emotionally-focused ideas to address relationship patterns and somatic techniques when tension shows up in the body. Together these approaches give options for addressing family of origin issues and trauma-related symptoms in ways that feel practical and immediate.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort. That might mean starting with skill-building from CBT, adding DBT strategies, or using somatic exercises during sessions.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy life schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt the chosen methods to remote sessions so clients can practice skills between meetings and apply what they learn in everyday situations.
