About Faizah
Faizah Mawusi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Indiana with 32 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and relationship concerns. She also addresses parenting, grief, anger, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.
Her practice focuses on clear, practical conversations. She helps people untangle communication problems, manage mood shifts, and handle life changes like divorce or separation. Sessions often include skills for coping with isolation, guilt and shame, and finding direction after loss.
Mawusi draws on client-centered methods to help people feel heard and to shape goals that matter to them. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills to manage intense emotions and improve interpersonal effectiveness. Motivational interviewing supports people working through substance use and readiness to change.
She pays attention to multicultural concerns and gender-related issues, including gender dysphoria and LGBTQ topics. She also supports people facing postpartum struggles, compassion fatigue, and family of origin wounds. The focus is on practical steps and clear strategies rather than theory-heavy discussion.
Her long experience includes work with adults navigating career stress, relationship shifts, and complex emotional issues. People who want straightforward help with mood, coping, and communication may find her approach useful.
BHow sessions work
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building goals based on what matters to the client. It helps people clarify values, set priorities, and decide on practical next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches skills to recognize unhelpful thinking patterns and practice different behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. Those skills can help with intense anger, self-harm urges, and relationship conflicts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. Treatment can shift as needs change, and decisions are made collaboratively rather than imposed.
Confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified here. Online sessions can fit into a busy week and reduce travel time, making it easier to schedule brief check-ins or full-length sessions around work, childcare, or other obligations. Ask about session length and how scheduling and subscription billing are handled when you complete the matching questionnaire.
