About Faizah
Faizah Mawusi is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 32 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, mood concerns, trauma and anger. She also addresses issues connected to relationships, parenting, grief, and LGBT matters.
Her sessions focus on practical steps a person can use right away. She uses clear conversation and structured practices to reduce overwhelm and manage strong feelings. People bring problems like workplace stress, trouble communicating, persistent resentment, or grief after loss.
Mawusi draws on client-centered methods that place the person's own goals first. She blends cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thought patterns with skills from dialectical behavior therapy to manage intense emotions. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also part of her toolkit when they fit the work.
She pays attention to cultural background and life context. That means looking at how family of origin, identity, and community shape behavior and feelings. Issues like gender dysphoria, postpartum mood shifts, or multicultural stressors are included in her frame of reference.
Sessions are described in straightforward terms and aim to build coping skills, clearer communication, and better emotional regulation. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an initial appointment through the site's scheduling flow.
How her approaches translate to online work
Faizah uses client-centered therapy to keep the person's goals at the center of sessions. That approach means conversation starts with what the person wants to change and focuses on practical steps that feel doable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to spot and shift thought patterns that feed anger or anxiety, and it involves clear exercises and homework people can try between sessions.Finding the right method is treated as a collaborative process. She discusses options, checks what feels useful, and adapts techniques based on the client's needs and preferences rather than imposing one rigid way of working.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking since they are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time, using shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or choosing audio-only contact when bandwidth is low. Licensed professionals can still teach skill-based practices, run thought-restructuring exercises, and coach emotion-regulation techniques effectively via remote sessions. The emphasis is on practical tools that help manage anger and related stress within day-to-day routines.
