Family therapy and counseling in Huntsville, AL

"In a world where you can be anything, be kind!" Hi there, I’m Adrianne Garrett and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the beautiful state of Alabama. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to grow. My goal is to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where clients can openly process emotions, strengthen coping skills, and move toward healing and personal growth.

Are you feeling stuck in repeating patterns, struggling in relationships, or carrying stress that feels hard to untangle alone? I help individuals, couples, and families better understand themselves, improve communication, and create lasting change. With decades of experience in counseling, community mental health, and private practice, I offer a warm, thoughtful approach grounded in deep listening and practical guidance. My work focuses on relationship issues, anxiety, life transitions, family conflict, and personal growth.

My name is Latarsia Renee Williams, but feel free to call me Tarsia (pronounced like Tasha). I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alabama, and I have been working with clients since 2016. My professional background includes supporting individuals, couples, families, and groups across a range of settings such as youth programs, detention facilities, group therapy environments, and private practice. I earned my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in 2018 and became fully licensed in 2024.

I currently provide telehealth services to adults across Florida. I specialize in helping clients navigate trauma, grief, emotional regulation, low self-worth, mood and attention challenges, and relationship concerns. I also offer Christian counseling for those seeking to integrate their faith into the therapeutic process.

I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Alabama, with over 20 years of experience working with individuals addressing mental and behavioral health issues. I have worked with diverse populations in various treatment settings to include: crisis stabilization, inpatient psychiatric and detox, residential, re-entry correctional facilities, out patient, and independent contract settings. I inherently believe that all human beings do the very best that they can, at any given time, with the knowledge skills and resources they have at that time. Life is full of changes and transitions, and many times the skills we used to cope during one phase, are not adequate for the next. I practice holistically, pulling from a vast array of theories and methodologies to help clients struggling with: self image/self esteem, stress management, relational discord, over thinking, life transitions, emotion regulation, mind body connection, role performance, assertiveness, boundaries, CNS dysregulation, and trauma.

Clients should know that I am deeply committed to creating a space where honesty, healing and emotional safety can exist without judgment. I understand that coming to therapy often requires courage, especially when life feels overwhelming, complicated, or uncertain. My approach is grounded in respect, authenticity, and clinical integrity. I value the therapeutic relationship and believe that meaningful change happens when clients feel seen, heard, and understood - not rushed, dismissed, or judged.

I bring both professional expertise and real-world understanding into my work. Due to having worked in a forensic psychiatric setting for over 16 years, I have experience working with complex emotional, behavioral, and trauma-related challenges. I approach each client with the belief that behavior is often a response to pain, and healing begins when we understand the story behind the behavior.

Clients should also know that I am direct, compassionate, and intentional in my work. I will support you, but I will also gently challenge patterns that may be keeping you stuck. My goal is not just to help you cope, but to help you grow, heal, and move toward a more grounded and peaceful version of yourself. I deeply respect each client’s pace and process. You are not expected to have everything figured out when you arrive. Therapy is a space for exploration, reflection, and growth.

Above all, I believe that healing is possible, change is achievable, and no one is too far gone to begin again.

Hi Y'all! I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I have been practicing for over 21 years. I am specially trained in co-occurring disorders of substance and mental health diagnoses. I love all people and want to help as many people as possible, to heal and move forward towards a healthier happier life. I hope to work with you soon!

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, and substance use, while maintaining a special passion for attachment wounds and the lasting impact of childhood experiences. I believe many of our current struggles make sense when we understand where they began.

My goal is to provide a compassionate, supportive environment where you feel truly seen and understood. Together, we'll identify patterns that no longer serve you, strengthen healthier ways of coping, and work toward lasting emotional freedom. Whether you're navigating painful relationships, unresolved trauma, or simply feeling stuck, I strive to help you build insight, healing, and confidence so you can create the life and relationships you deserve.

I am a licensed social work therapist in Alabama. I have 25 years of experience in therapy and social services.

Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, grief, or past trauma begin to take up more space than the life you want to live. You may be exhausted from carrying everything on your own, struggling to manage emotions, or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. I work with adults and teens who are ready for change but may not know where to start. Together, we'll create a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered to heal, build confidence, strengthen relationships, and move forward with greater clarity and purpose.
