About Ferris
Ferris Clare is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and self-esteem concerns. She brings six years of clinical experience and aims to make therapy practical and understandable for each person she meets. Her approach blends faith-informed perspectives with grounded therapeutic techniques.
She uses straightforward tools to help clients reframe unhelpful thoughts, set boundaries, and rebuild self-worth. Sessions are meant to feel collaborative and respectful of each person's beliefs and values.
How Ferris works
Ferris has worked in independent practice and social services, and she has led workshops and professional development programs. That background helps her bring practical skills into sessions, like communication strategies and steps to manage control issues. She leans on lived experience and cultural awareness to adapt her work to each person.
In therapy she often addresses issues tied to generational wounds, trauma, and relationship patterns. She helps people unpack childhood hurts, recognize unhealthy dynamics, and make choices that support emotional well-being. Ferris aims to leave clients with concrete strategies they can use outside sessions.
The goal she sets with clients is recovery and forward movement. Clients can expect clear tools, increased self-awareness, and guidance on boundaries and self-love. Ferris focuses on helping people move from surviving to making intentional changes in their lives.

Online support options
Online approaches that meet you where you are
Ferris often blends faith-informed perspectives with cognitive-behavioral techniques. Cognitive-behavioral methods focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, social anxiety, and problems with self-esteem by teaching practical coping skills and step-by-step strategies.She also uses trauma-aware care to recognize how past wounds affect current feelings and relationships. Trauma-aware work involves pacing sessions, grounding techniques, and building safety before addressing painful memories; it helps people who feel stuck because of past experiences.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Ferris will collaborate with each person to decide which mix of methods fits their goals, values, and needs. She checks in regularly and adjusts tools and pacing so the work feels useful and doable.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for fuller conversation, phone sessions when bandwidth is limited, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support. Those options make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, keep up between appointments, and choose a format that feels most comfortable.
