About Faith
Faith Clark is a licensed social worker with 19 years of experience in Minnesota. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Her style is calm and practical, aimed at helping people manage day-to-day struggles and feel more in control.
Faith uses Narrative Therapy alongside client-centered and cognitive-behavioral approaches to help people rethink painful stories about themselves. She invites clients to notice patterns, name difficult experiences, and test new ways of living.
Background and approach
Sessions are focused on small, workable steps that fit each person’s life. Her work includes support for people coping with chronic illness, caregiver strain, body image concerns, and attachment or abandonment wounds. She also addresses challenges tied to autism spectrum traits, dissociation, and co-occurring difficulties that complicate recovery.
Conversations center on practical strategies and clearer self-understanding. Faith brings a trauma-aware perspective without assuming one-size-fits-all answers. She helps people develop self-compassion, stronger coping skills, and clearer boundaries.
Over time clients often find they can make different choices when stressful feelings arise. Sessions use approaches like mindfulness skills and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy when helpful. Faith aims to make therapy feel doable - short-term goals, manageable practices, and a focus on everyday improvements.
She practices in Minnesota and conducts work in English.

Online session options
How Narrative and Practical Therapies Work Online
Faith commonly uses Narrative Therapy to help people separate themselves from painful stories and see other possibilities. Narrative work involves talking through the events that shape a life and noticing alternative meanings that open up different choices. It can be useful for depression, low self-worth, and patterns that feel stuck.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and the person’s own goals. That approach helps people feel heard and encourages self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used when practical behavior shifts are needed; it looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact and teaches simple skills to change those patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and they’ll adjust the plan as progress is made. This helps keep work focused and relevant to real life.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video is useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work when bandwidth is low, and text or chat can suit quick check-ins or short skills practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and maintain steady support.
