Hello! I'm Faith Schweiger, and I understand that every person has a unique perspective shaped by their background, family, and life circumstances. You may feel like no one truly grasps what you're going through, but I’m here to provide support and empathy that honors your individuality. If you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed, therapy can be a space for you to "hear yourself out loud," gain new insights, and find a path forward. I believe in progress over perfection, helping you break free from rumination and move toward positive change, without judgment. My approach to therapy is conversational and collaborative.
