She combines that focus with mindfulness practices to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed. Fay has 35 years of clinical experience and brings a calm, steady presence to sessions.

She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and career challenges. She also supports those processing trauma and abuse, including issues tied to adverse childhood experiences. Fay works with concerns such as self-esteem, relationship and family tensions, parenting stress, anger, bipolar disorder, and seasonal affective disorder.

Her method draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to make sense of what keeps problems going and to build manageable skills. She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing techniques when trauma processing is appropriate, and Motivational Interviewing to support change. Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help people stay present and steady during hard moments.

Fay emphasizes cultural awareness and a respect for each person’s background and identity. She frames the person as the expert in their life and supports goal-setting that feels realistic and meaningful. Her licensing is listed as LICSW and LCSW, reflecting clinical social work practice.

How key approaches guide online therapy

Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations without getting swept away. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and staying steady during mood shifts. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s perspective and priorities, giving space for people to set goals and move at their own pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and teaches practical skills to change them.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That conversation can include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a break, fewer commute hours, or using phone sessions when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can offer practical exercises, mindfulness practices, and cognitive techniques adapted for remote work to help people maintain progress between meetings.
