Therapists in Alabama

UPDATE as of 9/7/23... I currently am NOT able to take on new clients. I appreciate your interest and apologize for any inconvenience this may create. I DO have availability with my MFT student/intern. Please reach out to be seen by him. We all struggle in life sometimes and need help! In this day and age it can be hard to find the space to discuss the challenges of life with someone in a safe and genuine way. I enjoy meeting people where they are at in life, without judgement, and helping them sort out their next steps whether they be for improvement, maintenance, or understanding.

This is the perfect place for anyone seeking non-judgmental support and understanding. I specialize in mood disorders, trauma, adoption, foster care, attachment, and behavioral issues. I am committed to creating a comfortable, empathetic environment where you can take the first step toward change.

When people have experienced trauma, losses, stressors, and difficulties in relationships, they sometimes struggle to find hope. When relationships with friends, children & family are confusing and challenging, many feel isolated. You may judge yourself harshly instead of practicing self-compassion, leading to feelings of low self-esteem. In addition to meeting the needs of people struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and family conflict, members of the adoption triad will find a safe space here to explore their story and prepare to meet the unique needs that encompass adoption.

For you, your child, or teen please know I am available to provide help. With a strong background in inpatient, intensive outpatient and many years of private practice. I have 34 years of specialized clinical training, strong commitment to the advancement of my career, and offer therapeutic guidance & support to my clients. I work with women of all ages, children and teens. I specialize in treating emotional and physical trauma, PTSD, grief and loss, anxiety, and depression. I also am very passionate about my work with children and families with issues related to adoption & attachment trauma/wounds.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative partnership, between the therapist and client, that creates felt safety and fosters vulnerability and healing. My goal is to utilize the therapeutic process as a mirror that allows clients to see themselves, their histories, and their relationships with more depth, understanding, and clarity. I provide clients with a non-judgmental space to explore and process what they bring in with them to each session while helping them build emotional awareness and coping skills that they can carry with them into everyday life. I enjoy working with adults, teens, children, and families.

Would you like to have a more fulfilling life? Do you ever feel alone in your struggles? We all feel like this sometimes and could use some help finding answers. I can develop a unique treatment plan based on the specific goals you would like to accomplish. Please allow me to help you identify ways to bring more balance and peace to your life. Reaching for help is the first brave step toward wholeness. Please call, text, or email today.

As a therapist practicing humanistic therapy with a focus on holistic well-being, my ideal client is someone who is seeking a supportive and empowering space to explore their inner self and navigate life's challenges.

Life can be a bumpy road. The path we take can lead us to happiness or to despair. Making a wrong turn, not knowing which way to go or reaching what seems like a dead end is not the end of your journey. Sometimes we all need help getting to where we want to be. As a therapist, I help make your journey a more positive one. Grief or trauma can hinder you from moving forward. The loss of a loved one, job, relationship, pregnancy or even your life before illness or change can cause feelings of grief. Counseling helps work through the pain of your trauma or loss to experience joy again. The life you want is within reach.
