About Faith
Faith Otobo is a licensed clinical social worker who has practiced in New York for ten years. She offers calm, practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship pain, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. Faith speaks English and works with adults online in several formats.
Faith focuses on helping people notice what keeps them stuck and try new ways of coping. She draws on attachment ideas to look at how early bonds shape current relationships.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to break unhelpful thoughts and habits. Emotionally-Focused and client-centered strategies guide conversations so people feel heard while working toward change. Sessions tend to be straightforward and conversational.
Faith helps people name feelings, practice new skills, and set small goals between sessions. She supports work on communication, boundaries, codependency, body image, grief, and issues around adoption, caregiving, chronic illness, and fertility when these concerns come up. Her license is LCSW, New York LCSW 092635, and she brings a decade of clinical experience to each appointment.
People find this background useful when tackling long-standing patterns like abandonment, attachment struggles, or control issues. Therapy with Faith is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled to fit both parties.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds affect current relationships and helps people understand patterns that repeat in adult connections. It can be useful for clients dealing with abandonment, trust issues, or ongoing relationship pain.Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of the therapist. It creates room for people to talk through feelings, build self-understanding, and make choices that feel right for them.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then try practical alternatives. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people keep visual cues and deeper conversation, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and text or chat supports brief check-ins and ongoing skill practice. These options can make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy week and keep momentum between sessions.
