About Faizah

Faizah Nasser is an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker practicing in Michigan with eight years of experience. She helps people with depression, anxiety and stress, as well as parenting and family concerns. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, grief, trauma, anger, and relationship issues.

She uses clear, practical methods in sessions. She listens to what matters to the person and offers small, doable steps to try between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) features in her approach alongside client-centered and mindfulness techniques.

Before becoming an LMSW she completed a master's degree at Wayne State University. Her background includes work in outpatient clinics, inpatient hospitals, and schools, with both individual and group therapy experience. This range shapes how she adapts approaches for different situations.

Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and routines, testing new responses, and practicing skills that fit daily life. She uses motivational interviewing and solution-focused tools when people want short-term planning or help finding immediate next steps.

People who prefer direct, structured guidance tend to do well with her style. She encourages practical homework and regular check-ins on progress. The aim is clearer thinking, steadier moods, and more effective coping for everyday stressors.

How her approaches translate to online work

Faizah uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT sessions often include short experiments and practical homework to try between meetings, which can be reviewed in the next appointment. She also uses client-centered therapy, which means giving space to what matters most to the person and reflecting that back to guide next steps.

Mindfulness techniques are used to increase awareness of bodily states and stress responses. Those practices involve brief guided exercises and attention training that can be practiced outside sessions to reduce reactivity to triggers. Working together, she and the client decide which combination of methods fits the presenting issues and goals, so the plan is collaborative rather than predetermined.

Confirm the exact online session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Many people find online sessions fit into work breaks, reduce travel time, and let them follow up quickly on skills between meetings. If a shorter check-in or a session without video would help on a busy day, discuss that option when arranging appointments.
