I’m an independently licensed therapist in Alabama, and my background includes working full-time as a substance use counselor while also providing evening virtual therapy.

It means a lot to me when someone trusts me with the parts of their life that feel messy, painful, or overwhelming. I want therapy to feel like a space where you can be honest, feel respected, and begin building real momentum toward the life you want.

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Huntsville
Finding addiction therapists in Huntsville starts with understanding the kind of support you want. Addiction care can include help with alcohol use, substance use, gambling, gaming, and other behavioral concerns. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or harm reduction-informed care. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team, so it helps to look for a therapist whose training and listed specialties match your needs.
Huntsville has a range of local therapy options, and virtual appointments can make the search broader if office location or schedule is a factor. Recovery often changes over time, so finding a therapist who is nonjudgmental, experienced with addiction care, and clear about their approach can make the first step more practical. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios can help you understand how each therapist talks about addiction, relapse prevention, family involvement, and session structure before you book.
Addiction therapy in Huntsville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking, and choose from therapists who are accepting new clients. You can browse profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
