01 · Who Faith works with

Faith works with LGBT, relationship issues and intimacy-related issues

Faith lists 16 specialisms and 39 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Faith chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.

02 · In Faith's own words

What Faith says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

Hello! You can call me Cai. I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, certified personal trainer, AMGA Climbing Wall Instructor, and somatic coach. I love dogs, I'm a world traveler, rock climber, somatic abolitionist, BIPoC, queer, and neuro-divergent, therapist.

For new clients, please know that while I put some regularly occurring appointment times on my calendar, that my schedule varies, and is set-up to support you for about 4-session. If after 4-sessions your goals, our schedules, and fit align, I am happy to discuss ongoing sessions. In my experience, 4-sessions with me works best if you are seeking to dive into experiential and somatic work, are seeking more support while working through a specific situation or recent life change, or have a specific, personal-growth goal.

I tend to work from a somatic lens, will teach coping skills when asked or it is appropriate to offer, cuss sometimes, throw in some humor, work intuitively, and through experiential process.

I welcome other therapists, climbers, marginalized folx, and anyone drawn to something they’ve read here.

03 · How Faith works

The 2 approaches Faith lists, in plain English

These are the clinical methods Faith lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Faith's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Faith runs a session.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Reads present-day relationship difficulty through the lens of how safety and closeness were learned early on. The therapeutic relationship itself is treated as part of the work, because it is where the pattern tends to show up first.

Mindfulness-Based TherapyMBCT

Trains attention on what is happening right now - body, breath, the thought as it arrives - so distress can be observed rather than automatically acted on. Strongest evidence is in preventing depression from recurring, and it is usually taught as a practice you keep doing outside the session.

• Existential Therapy
• Somatic Therapy

04 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Faith practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Faith's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Faith at this point.

2. Naming Faith specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Faith is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Faith.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Before you commit

2 questions worth asking Faith

Built from what Faith actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Faith's - Faith has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”

  Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

07 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Faith's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 7 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Faith. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
