Suicidal Ideation Therapists in Alabama

I am passionate about helping others. As a Licensed Counselor, my ultimate goal is to provide the best service to assist individuals with techniques and strategies to develop a fulfilling life. I believe in developing skills to have overall mental and physical wellbeing in order to have a stable and peaceful lifestyle. Life does not come with a manual, however, with proper development and insight, one can be satisfied with the life they live. It is important to remember that each day is a new day for happiness and success.

I work with folks who are feeling lost. Lots of things can make us feel this way: Excessive stress, life transitions, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, self-judgement, trauma responses, suicidal thoughts... The list could go on. What these experiences have in common is they get in the way of us being the version of ourselves that we want to be. Another thing they have in common? They don't have to stay in our way.

I am equipped to work with individuals who may have personality disorders, suicidal ideation, depression, and/or self-harm. However, I operate from the perspective that the client is the expert. It is my job to empower their autonomy, meaning, and hope already within them. As you color the room, I hope to make the space safe enough to make observations about your values, not mine. What is important to you? What does therapy look like to you? Let us accomplish the goals you already have set out, and discover new ones together.

Hi! I am Kayle Lucas. I believe that counseling is a sacred space and opportunity for you to be heard and respected. I am grounded in the belief that people can be motivated towards achieving positive psychological functioning, and this is essential to every therapeutic relationship and provides the basis for change to occur. I believe you are an expert of your experience, your wants, and your needs. I do not believe there is one single approach or theory that works for everyone in every situation. I have a diverse understanding of theories and I incorporate a variety of therapeutic principles to create the best treatment for you.

Somethings can be so sensitive or difficult we cannot talk to those who are involved. Maybe we need to discuss issues with those we are closest to us but can't or don't know how without causing conflict. At times we need someone who will listen judgment free. Relationships (self and with others) become “complicated” and impact our ability to function in our lives and cause distress and/or dysfunction often leading to poor coping and adapting skills, leading to depression, anxiety, suicide idealization, etc. Our sessions end organically. Our focus is on you and not arbitrary time restraints. We also offer 24 hour emergency support.

I work with children, adolescence and adults in individual or family counseling. My desire is to give each client a safe place to call his / her own. A space free of judgment that fosters growth and empowerment. My goal is equip each client with the tools needed to navigate life’s journey leading to freedom and wholeness.

Hello! I am so happy that we have crossed paths and you are viewing my profile. I hope that you stay a while and learn about me and why I am an advocate for mental health stability. Having gone through my own challenges in life, I understand what it is like to be over exerted mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Many times in life, we stop. We stop taking care of ourselves. We stop enjoying others. Here's the thing: It does not have to stay that way. Let's change the narrative together and START. There will be challenges along the way, but always remember that you are on the road to becoming a better YOU for YOU.
