Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Orange City, FL covered by Aetna

Hi! I am Katie. I am an Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Masters Certified Addictions Counselor (MCAP). I received my bachelors from UF and then went on to get my Masters in Social Work (MSW) from USF. I have nearly 10 years of experience working in the helping profession. After graduation, I began working in child welfare and for the past 3 years I have been working in residential substance use and trauma treatment programs.

My background includes trauma, substance use, crisis intervention, anxiety, OCD, and relationship challenges. I am especially passionate about supporting marginalized communities, particularly women and teens, while creating an inclusive and affirming space for all identities and lived experiences. I believe in breaking the stigma surrounding mental health and helping people feel less alone in what they carry.

My therapeutic approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and tailored to each individual rather than forcing clients into one specific framework. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), a reprocessing therapy similar to EMDR. I draw from these approaches based on your unique needs, personality, and goals while balancing evidence-based interventions with authenticity, humor, compassion, and occasional tough love.

Life’s challenges can feel overwhelming, confusing, and difficult to navigate alone, but they can also be an opportunity for meaningful change. I offer an integrative approach to address the root causes of what you’re experiencing. Treatment may include medications when helpful, while attention to sleep, nutrition, movement, and social connectedness helps strengthen long-term resilience and well-being. Using a therapeutic approach, we offer space to explore patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools for change. I am here to help you feel better, live meaningfully, and thrive.

Hi! I'm Faith McFarland and I specialize in working with kids, teens, and adults dealing with all kinds of struggles. Whether it's anxiety, depression, trauma, or any kind of big life change, I strive to create an environment my client's feel safe and comfortable to explore their feelings and actions. I graduated from UCF with my Master's in Clinical Psychology and have received extensive training working with kids and teens recovering from abuse and trauma.

Healing from trauma, anxiety, and major life transitions can feel overwhelming, especially when you've spent years carrying burdens that were never meant to be carried alone. You may feel stuck between who you are and who others expect you to be, weighed down by painful experiences, family dynamics, cultural expectations, or the pressure to keep everything together while struggling internally. Whether you're coping with complex trauma, sexual trauma, relationship challenges, anxiety, self-doubt, or significant life changes, you deserve a space where you feel seen, understood, and supported.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming especially when you’re already feeling stuck, exhausted, anxious, or unsure of what you need. I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely understood, not judged or “fixed.” My goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what’s really going on, feel supported through the hard parts, and develop tools that help you feel more grounded and confident in your life.

I work with adults navigating eating disorders, complex trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, relationship and communication difficulties, attachment wounds, and major life transitions. I’ve worked across residential, PHP, IOP, and outpatient settings, giving me experience supporting people through both acute challenges and longer-term healing.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and compassionate, while still being honest and practical. We’ll work together to understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck not just manage symptoms, but understand why they’re happening and what you want to do differently.

You don’t have to have everything figured out before starting therapy. If you’re ready to better understand yourself, break old patterns, and build a life that feels more like your own, I’d be honored to help.

I am a compassionate listener who is focused on helping to improve our patient's quality of life.
