Biography: Hi. My name is Faith Lang and I'm here to help! As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I 've had the opportunity to work with people of various ages, backgrounds and ethnicities to enhance all aspects of their life. As a result, I've found that many people achieve great comfort by evaluating past beliefs and finding a new perspective regarding the meaning of life. My specialty in addiction has shown me that all people can change and that behavioral change can lead to enhanced self esteem and the ability to move forward in life. A prior Masters in Special Education and teaching experience provided an understanding of the uniqueness of each individual and created a close rapport with children and adolescents. With this combined knowledge I've been fortunate to see great success with so many clients. As supervisor of a chemical dependency program, I had the opportunity to create programs assisting both addicts and their families . I've also taught upcoming counselors in a county chemical dependency program and trained interns. In private practice, I've counseled individuals and families to acquire emotional support and achieve greater understanding of themselves through the use of many techniques, including hypnotherapy. The result of being raised in a society where we are encouraged to believe that more is better often leads to impulsive and compulsive behaviors, resulting in anxiety and depression. However, it's possible to look at life through a new lens. I hope to help you do it!

Biography: Hello, thank you for taking the time and to learn a bit more about me. I am a seasoned clinician with 15 years of experience in the field of mental health services. I finished graduate school, (2005), becoming dually licensed in 2009, (LADC), and 2011,(LCMHC), respectively. I've worked with individuals and families facing a variety challenges such as depression and anxiety, terminal illness, unemployment, trauma and abuse, addictions of all kinds, communication failure, loss in relationships, and parenting concerns. My counseling style is interactive and playful. I love hearing your story. It is the favorite part of my work. My experience has taught me that the most important predictor of your success, and maintaining it are two-fold. 1.) The connection you and I develop as the person you chose to support you. Do you feel accepted for who you are? And do you feel I understand you? As we unravel your challenges do you feel comforted, clarified, and incrementally challenged to grow? If the answer is yes, the cumulative nature of my positive support, our mutual observations, discussing, (and meeting bumps in the road), will allow incremental challenges to give you traction, expanding your self-esteem, generating your success. 2.) Keeping track of what's happened; beginning, middle and end. You are welcome to message me anytime through Better Help. The frequency with which you can have access to a counselor to work through day to day emotions and problem solving is extremely beneficial for most and a nice change from traditional outpatient counseling. I usually check messages twice each day, seven days per week. I offer messaging, live chat and phone sessions with limited availability in the evenings and weekends. Please note that what you see in my calendar may not reflect my only availability so you always want to check that out with me through messaging first.

Biography: You can have peace and I am devoted to help you in the process. *At this time I am prioritizing new patient referrals to CHRISTIAN WOMEN. I am Rachel Anauo, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, licensed in the state of New York. I am also Ordained and Licensed as a Christian Minister. I had a dramatic conversion to following Christ in 1996. (Jesus means everything to me!) I am a widow, now over 50, and have experienced hardship in my life too, so I understand that life can be tough at times. I offer a blend where the professional clinical part of counseling and the spiritual growth and encouragement merge. I have special interests helping those in ministry, as well as adult women's mental health care. I have 10+ years of counseling experience with dual disorders (mental health and substance abuse). Most of my experience has been within non-Christian programs, and this has frustrated me in the past to work with such limitations. I help people working through grief and loss, to repair trust, improve communication, and strengthen their emotional intimacy in relationships. I am comfortable discussing sexual matters. I help those who struggle with anxiety and depression, boundaries, and self-esteem issues. I am glad to help people with a trauma history. And I like to provide education about various things that people are struggling with. I am fully aware that people often self-medicate with drugs and alcohol (and other destructive behaviors) and I am very experienced with helping people who are seeking recovery from this burden, but a higher level of care may be recommended if unlikely to succeed from online counseling. I am learning more about the challenges that women face in relationships in cycles of abuse, including narcissistic abuse dynamics, as this is very damaging to a person's confidence and understanding of what healthy relationships look like. I bring vast personal and professional experience to our work together. I draw upon Cognitive-Behavioral, Solution-Focused, and Narrative Counseling techniques for my counseling style. Also, because life can get very heavy, I really enjoy using humor with those I work with when possible. I utilize the messaging feature regularly with those who choose to counsel with me and I check in with my clients often. I encourage all clients to utilize every resource available to them to get them where they want to be in life. I like to provide audio messages to my clients that may include a prayer for them, a Scripture that relates to their current needs, or even a Christian devotional reading that I believe would be helpful to their current life needs if they are agreeable. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.
