About Ithaca
Ithaca Favor is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Alabama with six years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, and coping with life changes, and lists young adult issues among her focus areas.
She approaches counseling from a person-centered stance, treating each client as the expert on their own life. Sessions are practical and straightforward. Conversations focus on identifying strengths, building motivation, and improving daily coping skills.
Ithaca often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. She pairs that with solution-focused tools to set concrete, achievable goals and track small steps forward. Motivational interviewing is part of her approach when people feel stuck or unsure about change.
Work in sessions can include talking through relationship patterns, practicing communication skills, and making plans for life transitions like finishing school or starting a new job. She also addresses body image, workplace issues, and feelings of isolation or low self-worth.
People who choose her often want clear, practical next steps rather than long, abstract conversations. Ithaca helps clients break big problems into manageable tasks and notice progress along the way. If you are considering therapy, confirm current session options before booking so you know how she is meeting with clients.
How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what the client brings. It helps people clarify their own goals and build on strengths they already have. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It involves learning to spot unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to see what changes.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then recommend techniques to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions can be squeezed between classes or shifts. Therapists and licensed professionals often adapt exercises, homework, and communication styles to work well in virtual meetings. If you want a particular format, check the available options when you start the signup process.
