Therapist

Virtual • Alabama


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. I especially enjoy working with teens and adults, and I’m drawn to this work because I believe therapy should help people feel more free, more grounded, and more like themselves again. 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.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right couples therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Huntsville

Finding couples therapists in Huntsville starts with naming what you and your partner want to work on. Couples therapy may support concerns like communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life changes, or parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches in their bios, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy.

In a mid-sized city like Huntsville, the right fit often comes down to both specialty and logistics. You may want a therapist with an office near home or work, while virtual sessions can make it easier to find someone who works with both partners’ schedules. As you compare Huntsville therapists, review availability, whether they are accepting new patients, session structure, and whether they offer a brief phone consultation. Therapist bios can also show how they work with couples and what each partner can expect from the first few sessions.

Couples therapy in Huntsville can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket expense before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, accept your plan, and are accepting new patients, so you can compare bios, review estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
