About Faiza
Faiza Anwar helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting pressures, relationship strain, and life changes. She also supports clients managing ADHD and multicultural concerns. Faiza is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, with ten years of experience.
She creates a calm, nonjudgmental space for people to talk about what feels hard. Sessions focus on understanding immediate concerns and developing practical ways to cope.
Background and approach
Faiza listens closely and works with clients at a steady, manageable pace. Her approach is straightforward and goal-oriented. Conversations often include identifying unhelpful patterns, trying new ways to handle stress, and building small skills that make daily life easier.
She aims for concrete steps rather than long lectures. Faiza pays attention to cultural context and how background shapes stress and coping. She invites discussion about identity and expectations when they matter to the problem at hand.
That helps tailor strategies to each person’s life. People meet with her by phone, video, live chat, or text messaging. She is licensed in New York as an LMHC and practices in Texas as an LPC.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and Faiza focuses on making the process clear and manageable.
Approaches that fit online therapy
Faiza uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and clear steps. One common approach centers on teaching coping strategies for stress and anxiety - clients learn breathing, planning, and activity changes that reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. Another approach helps with low mood and motivation by identifying small, achievable goals and changing patterns that maintain depression; this makes progress feel manageable and trackable. A third focus addresses relationship and family concerns by improving communication and setting boundaries so interactions feel safer and clearer.Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist and client talk about goals, try different strategies, and adjust what they do together based on what helps most. That teamwork makes it easier to choose methods that match a person’s needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, quick skill practice, or people with irregular schedules. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue work between sessions.
