Making the decision to seek professional help for yourself or your loved one can be intimidating. I’m the therapist for people that “don’t like therapy”. More than half of my patients were formerly people who had never tried psychotherapy, "didn't believe in it" or had negative past experiences. They were skeptical, to say the least. I believe that asking for help can be very, very difficult for some people, so when they finally decide to come in, I want them to be received by someone who is real, authentic, relatable and non-judgmental.

Imagine going on an unfamiliar journey through treacherous terrain without proper guidance and tools.

As an experienced therapist, I will help you navigate through your challenges and find your inner strength and beauty. I will help you and your family sharpen their coping tools so that you can reclaim ownership of your life and embrace the joy and productivity each day offers.

Hi! My name is Elisabeth Faust and I have 30 (thirty) years of experience working with those who have behavioral health issues, which includes most people in our fast-paced and stress-filled lives. I have experience in helping those with severe, behavioral health illnesses in a medical setting (clinic). My ideal client is one who is actively seeking help for his/her self and willing to make changes in one's life. I quote Albert Einstein in his definition of insanity, "It is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting the results to be different". A person needs to be heard and validated in their distress.

It is my goal to help clients learn to identify, process, and cope with difficult life events, emotions, and behaviors. This goal is facilitated in a confidential, supportive, and therapeutic environment in which clients can freely express their thoughts and feelings without feeling judged or criticized. I have worked on the Mississippi Gulf Coast for 29 years providing outpatient counseling for children, adolescents, and adults.

The scope of my therapy practice is based on the belief that children are growing, developing individuals who at times need assistance beyond their families and school structures to develop emotional and social skills, self confidence, and coping skills to handle stressors. Children are often more open than adults to change and I absolutely love getting to see them transform and grow. I work with children and adolescents ages 4 to 18.
