Therapists in Alabama

Are you a parent frustrated by your child's hyperactivity, battling for control, anger, defiance, or school behavior problems? Has your family experienced transitions like divorce, loss of a loved one, or moving to a new area? As parents, we want our children to be happy, healthy, well-rounded, joyful, and worry-free. We want them to be at peace with themselves and with others, and confident in themselves and their own abilities and aptitudes. Sadly we can't always protect them from broken relationships, hard choices, big challenges and tough losses. Sometimes we need trusted counsel to help navigate storms.

Do you find yourself constantly being triggered by past trauma? Are you experiencing feelings of worry and self-doubt that cause you to feel stuck and not able to live the life you dreamed of? Do you find yourself struggling to find normalcy again after a divorce, bad break-up, unexpected loss or this Covid-19 pandemic? Are you a parent with a preteen or teen that’s dealing with anxiety or depression?

Some stages of life can be tough, finding relevant help that is measurable shouldn't be. Compass II Life exists solely for youth, couples, & families in need of brief therapy & support, yet with results the family can measure. Day & evening appointment availability for support with parenting, anxiety/depression, anger management, respect for parents/authority, purpose, marriage counseling, & more. Different by design, my practice targets a new approach to the delivery of mental health care & mentoring for youth/families across the Gulf Coast. Telehealth remains available for those in need of remote services or support.

Hi there :) It is not by accident that you have come across my profile. You have given so much to the point of exhaustion. You may not know who you are anymore. Or maybe you have been holding on to resentful feelings? I can help. It doesn’t matter if you are an adolescent or an adult who is experiencing a diagnosis of a serious mental illness, anxiety, depression, relationship skill difficulties, communication, adjustment issues, and other mental health needs. I listen and collaborate with you on your goals for your life. I pull from your strengths. I am your biggest supporter. Let me help you!

Life happens. Sometimes the things we experience in life are a bit too much to handle on our own, a bit too personal to talk to friends about, and a bit too complicated to rely on self-help gurus. That’s where I come into the picture! My goal is help you work through issues that may be hindering you, your child/teen, or your family. Whether anxiety, depression, trauma, family issues, child/teen struggles, I would love to help get things back on track.

I am a licensed professional counselor at Integrative Health Services, LLC with 15 years of experience working with individuals, adolescents, children, couples, and families. I have worked with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, family conflicts, parenting issues, career challenges, ADHD, self-esteem, and trauma. I am a Registered Play Therapist who uses play therapy techniques to help children cope with stressful circumstances and life issues. I have a background working in the school systems and foster care helping children and teens cope with stressful circumstances and behavioral issues.

Working with teens and early twenties is my specialty. This age group has unique needs and wants. They are trying to figure out who they are and what they want to pursue in life. Often times certain events or ways of thinking can start to interfere with this stage of maturing. The young people I work with are striving to belong, feel good about themselves and succeed.

Anxiety & OCD Treatment Services is a specialty clinic that strives to provide high-quality, evidence-based treatment for those who are suffering from anxiety and OCD, and who otherwise may not have access to specialized therapy services. We work with children, adolescents, and adults, offering both individual and parent-based therapy.

Do you know that you are worthy of everything wonderful life has to offer? Do you believe you have the power to make your life fantastic? I believe in empowering clients by focusing on and helping them grow their strengths. Therapy should help you feel happier about your life, even while difficult issues of past or present traumas and roadblocks are being worked through. As a client, if you entrust your story to me, you will be met with my respect, understanding and a validation of your feelings.

Therapy works! Healing begins. Your relationships are transformed. Your children / adolescents can behave and thrive. You can find purpose together. Your life direction can become clear. You can have your life back! Counseling and Therapy Services can help you on your road to healing, recovery, and happiness.

Are you a perfectionist who continues to be disappointed because you never seem to measure up to everyone else? Or maybe it seems you give more in relationships than you receive. You could be a teen trying to meet the demands of school, friends and family that leave you feeling anxious and discouraged. Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed and stressed? Let's work together to get to the root of the issue and develop a plan that incorporates self love to get your life back. Soon you will find balance and inner peace. It’s possible to feel confident, empowered, and hopeful again.

Welcome! I feel that I act as a guide for my clients on their journey toward self-awareness and self-discovery. I strive to provide a safe and peaceful space in which clients can learn new coping skills to enable them to move toward their life goals. I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused and insight therapy to help my clients deal with depression, anxiety, loss, anger, relationship issues, and stress. I tailor my counseling style to each individual client's needs.

Trauma comes in many ways and brings with it many difficult symptoms. Fear, worry, sadness, and a feeling that you can't cope are just a few. Others don't always understand you or know how to help. This is especially true for parents who want to help their children navigate traumatic experiences but feel helpless to know where to start. There is nothing more frightening than having a child or teen who is struggling with anxiety, depression, and/or suicidal thoughts. Teenagers often feel unheard and parents can feel helpless.

Are you a busy teenager or professional struggling to balance the demands of your life? Are you a mother or father who would love to receive clinical support after you put the kids down for bed? There is hope! I have made it my personal mission to make quality clinical care convenient for you.

I have committed myself to being a knowledgeable and competent professional equipped to help a wide spectrum of clients from all walks of life who may have an equally wide range of needs. I believe you are the expert of your story, and you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming the things that challenge you, cause you distress, or make you feel “stuck”. I am trained in a variety of treatment modalities to fit your needs so my approach is very client-centered; what may work for one individual may not work for the next even if there are similar diagnosis or challenges. I welcome the opportunity to work with you!

As a mom of twins, I know how challenging parenting can be. Social media influences, self harm behaviors, impulse control, anger management, bullying and low self worth are just a few of the issues adolescents and their families must navigate. Better relationships within the family unit are possible. Seeing your child smile again is possible. Laughing with your children again is possible. Your adolescent making good choices again is possible. It just requires, change. Start Over, Start Now. Let today be your Day 1.

As our population has become increasingly diverse, so have the demands for individualized and differentiated treatments. Rather than treating disorders generally, I apply research driven techniques to create treatment plans designed around each individual's needs. I believe in an eclectic approach to therapy, with a strong emphasis on solution focused and cognitive behavioral strategies to help adolescents, adults, and families work through life's challenges. Through evidence based treatment and empirically based treatment strategies, I create a collaborative and trusting environment for children and adolescents dealing with trauma.

We are a multi-specialty therapy practice serving the needs of the entire family. From postpartum depression and infertility, to trauma and addiction, to ADHD and anxiety, we are here for your family. We utilize evidence-based therapeutic techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Mindfulness, and Art and Play therapy. We have each received specialized training in our respective areas of expertise, and we are so excited to bring these services to Baldwin and Jefferson Counties.

I have over 25 years of experience assisting people to work through personal challenges. The COVID-19 pandemic has created additional challenges for many of us. The ordinary stresses and strains of living have become accentuated by the need to remain inside. I believe in therapy and have personally experienced the benefits of having a therapeutic relationship with a trained professional. My clients tell me that I am easy to talk with and that I am a good listener.
