Faizah Nasser, LMSW

Faizah Nasser is a licensed master social worker (LMSW) based in Michigan who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and parenting challenges. She also supports those dealing with relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and life changes. Her approach centers on listening and practical steps people can try between sessions.

With eight years of experience, Faizah draws on client-centered methods to keep conversations focused on each person's goals. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to spot unhelpful thinking, mindfulness to calm the nervous system, motivational interviewing to build momentum, and solution-focused techniques to set achievable short-term goals. This mix aims to make therapy down-to-earth and useful.

Her background includes work in outpatient clinics, inpatient hospital settings, and schools, with both individual and group therapy experience. That variety informs her ability to adapt tools to everyday life and different routines. She has supported people with ADHD, anxiety, depression, and parenting skill needs across these settings.

Sessions tend to emphasize clear, manageable steps rather than long lectures. Clients can expect a balance of listening, skill building, and gentle challenges to try new approaches between appointments. Goals are set collaboratively so progress feels measurable.

Faizah frames therapy as a form of self-care that takes courage to begin. She encourages people to move toward greater confidence in handling daily stressors and longer-term life purposes. If you want practical strategies and steady support, she may be a good fit.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person in the room. The therapist listens carefully, reflects what she hears, and helps clients set their own goals. This approach is useful when someone needs space to sort thoughts and decide what matters most.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related thinking patterns, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust as you go. That means the plan can change if something isn’t working and you can try another route together.

For practical matters, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises or homework between sessions in real time, which can help build everyday habits and reinforce changes discussed in therapy.
