About

I provide client-centered, research-informed care based on the belief that the means of achieving whole health starts with seeing what is working, and building from there.

As a dual-careerist, Ms. Faulkner comes to therapy with an appreciation for the benefits and consequences of life as we live it. She works collaboratively with clients to identify strengths and goals using behavioral, cognitive, emotional and spiritual modalities. Experienced in all levels of care for behavioral health integrated with medical care, she is committed to life-long learning and social justice.
