01About Arleen
Arleen Faulkner helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, and low self-esteem. She works with adults who are dealing with depression or relationship strain and guides them toward clearer goals. Arleen holds MD and LCPC credentials and brings three decades of clinical experience to her practice.
She focuses on building self-love and finding life purpose. Sessions often include talking through difficult events, examining how workplace or relationship patterns affect daily life, and trying practical steps to feel better.
Background and approach
The tone is encouraging and down-to-earth rather than clinical or abstract. Arleen pays attention to real-life concerns like body image, divorce and separation, forgiveness, and midlife transitions. She helps people make concrete changes, such as setting boundaries at work or repairing how they relate to others.
The work is paced to each person’s needs and values. Her approach emphasizes collaboration. Clients identify goals and Arleen suggests doable homework between sessions when helpful.
She draws on long experience to match strategies to what a person finds useful rather than insisting on one method. Sessions are offered in English and delivered remotely through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. The practice aims to help people build resilience, clarify priorities, and take steps toward a more satisfying everyday life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Arleen uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anxiety and depression in clear, practical ways. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce worry and lift mood; it helps with everyday anxiety and depression symptoms. Another approach centers on rebuilding self-worth and self-love by practicing new self-directed habits and examining life patterns that undermine confidence; this is useful for body image and self-esteem concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She works together with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and life situation. That collaborative process means strategies are tried, revised, and tailored over time rather than assumed from the start.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversations when a longer appointment is helpful. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins and ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
