Getting to know Dr. Ruth Faucette

Welcome, Here is pertinent information to know prior to booking: - All consent forms and billing information must be completed prior to session. - No-shows or late cancellations (less than 24-hours in advance) may incur a $150 charge. - Lastly, please read below to learn about my professional background! Hailing from New England, I received my Master’s of Arts in Marriage & Family Therapy from Antioch University, completed my Doctorate in Human Development with a Specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy from Virginia Tech, and completed a Postdoctoral Fellowship in Integrated Behavioral Health at the University of Nebraska Medical Center. Prior to launching private practice, I held academic faculty positions within a family medicine residency program as Director of Behavioral Health and Clinical Assistant Professor. I remain active in academics as I currently hold the position of Adjunct Assistant Professor at Arizona State University in the College of Health Solutions. From clinical work to research to policy to advocacy, I consistently leverage my passion and expertise to ensure equity and excellence in holistic, therapeutic care for clients. To bring calm to my ever-evolving world, I am a CrossFit athlete and enjoy mentoring not only up-and-comers in the field but underserved youth through community philanthropy. Extracurriculars keep me busy but I most enjoy traveling the world and spending time with my loved ones.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Has life become so challenging that you ask yourself, “Will it ever get easier?” As we journey down the road of life, we will run into bumps, make wrong turns, and even get into wrecks. When that happens, we need guidance to get back to being our happiest, healthiest selves. Whether you’re dealing with stress from common life transitions (e.g., beginning a new career, facing a big move, etc.), losing the “spark” in your relationship, noticing a breakdown in communication with family members, or facing the psychological and biological comorbidity of chronic illness, I am here to help you navigate the challenging road ahead. As a board-certified marriage and family therapist (LMFT, LCMFT), I am passionate about driving positive outcomes for my clients with a unique approach to mental health through biological, psychological, social, and spiritual lenses. My clients gain insight into themselves, their relationships, and their behaviors while developing positive coping skills to navigate life’s toughest challenges.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I am a client-centered, collaborative, and holistic marriage and family therapist—trained to work with individuals, couples, and families across the lifespan. Our first session together will be comprised of a comprehensive intake that will inform the treatment approach and relevant diagnosis. Next, we will develop your treatment plan. This treatment plan will identify your goals as they relate to therapy and objectives for reaching and maintaining these goals. Therapeutic interventions will incorporate tenets of both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy. Sessions will typically occur weekly and will last for 50-minutes. Therapeutic outcomes vary—the best outcomes occur when there is active engagement from you in the therapy process. Typically, therapy lasts three to six months, while some clients choose to incorporate psychotherapy into their long-term wellness objectives.
