Faith Liedholm-Matsch-Hicks, APRN-BC

Practice philosophy: In my practice, my guiding philosophy is centered around using the most up-to-date evidence to assist individuals in their healing journey. My goal is to help patients not only recover, but also discover their inner strength by listening to their concerns and collaborating with them to create a personalized treatment plan.

What are you passionate about and why? I have a deep passion for life, cherishing moments spent with my family and friends. Volunteering is something I hold close to my heart, as I believe it not only benefits others but also contributes to our own mental well-being.

Why did you become a provider? When did you know this was the career for you? Mental health has always been a passion of mine. I chose to become an outpatient provider because I genuinely love the idea of fostering long-term relationships with my patients.

What is something you have learned from your patients? My patients have taught me the true meaning of courage through their openness and honesty when sharing their mental health challenges.

What is the best thing you've done for your health or the best health advice you've received? I've made a conscious effort to prioritize sleep. It's amazing how our brains rejuvenate during a good night's rest. Focusing on healthy sleeping habits will help our brains function at their best!

What are you most proud of? I take immense pride in my family, which includes my wonderful husband and our two amazing kids. Their unwavering support has been a tremendous source of strength throughout my journey to become a provider.
