About Faith

Faith Otobo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in New York with ten years of practice. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. Faith aims to create a calm place to talk and to help people untangle painful patterns such as codependency and attachment difficulties.

She uses straightforward, person-focused conversation to identify what feels stuck and what matters most to each person. Sessions often include practical tools to manage overwhelming emotions and clearer ways to communicate with others. Faith draws on a mix of approaches to match the problem at hand rather than a single method.

Her background includes a decade of clinical work supporting people through major life changes and loss. That experience informs a measured, steady style that balances validation with real-world skills. Clients can expect direct feedback, emotion regulation techniques, and attention to how past relationships shape present behavior.

Faith often helps people work through attachment wounds, commitment and control issues, adoption or foster care questions, caregiver stress, chronic illness concerns, and body image or fertility-related distress. She also addresses problems that come up after separation or during divorce, including guilt, shame, and forgiveness.

Conversations are offered in English. International clients may be accepted; confirm specifics when reaching out. To begin, prospective clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short questionnaire before scheduling.

How these approaches inform online care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people notice how past hurts affect trust, closeness, and conflict in today's relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person's experience in the moment. The therapist offers empathic listening and supports the client in finding their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors together. It provides short-term tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and to build concrete habits that reduce anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different strategies to see what fits. Together you’ll track what helps and adjust the plan as needs change.

Confirm current session formats before booking so you know what's available. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier by reducing travel and allowing sessions around work or caregiving schedules. Some formats use less bandwidth or allow shorter check-ins, which can help when time is tight or when being on camera is not ideal. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to work well through remote sessions, helping clients practice skills between meetings and apply them in daily life.
