Hi! I am so glad you are here!

Hi! Thank you for taking the time to get to know me. I am Romalyn Aaron, but you can call me Roma (like the tomato!). I have over 10 years of experience as a therapist working with all age groups from toddlers and the elderly. I have worked with a wide range of mental health disorders from adjustment disorders to anxiety and depression. I specialize in trauma, substance use disorders, familial relationship hardships, crisis intervention, and behavioral management. I obtained both a bachelor and a master degrees in psychology, a master in human services, a master in education, a master in counseling and doctoral level education specialist. I am currently working on my Doctorate in Education (EdD) in Community Mental Health Traumatology specialty. I am an Army combat Veteran with experience in working with Veterans and their families and connecting them with community services and resources. I am looking forward to working with you and be a part of your healing journey! I am here to help light up your path! Stronger together! See you soon!
I have been a counselor for more than 30 years. I remain passionate about making a difference in the lives of others and believe that genuine caring is an essential element to an effective counseling relationship. Over the years I have worked with clients with significant trauma and loss. I consider it a privilege to stand with another individual as he or she resolves great pain. I specialize in treating clients with trauma, relationship issues, and borderline personality disorder.
I speak Haitian Creole!
I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, & depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage! I am here to support you in that process.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who specializes in working with adolescents, teens, and young people navigating emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges. Many of the teens and families I support are dealing with anxiety, depression, anger outbursts, defiance, low self-esteem, school stress, peer conflict, family tension, and difficulty managing big emotions. Parents often come to me feeling overwhelmed, unsure how to help, or concerned about changes in behavior, mood, or communication at home.
I believe healing begins with feeling truly seen, heard, and understood. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where young people can safely express themselves, build trust, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop a stronger sense of identity and self-worth. My work also focuses on helping families improve communication, reduce conflict, rebuild connection, and create more stable, supportive relationships at home. My goal is to help teens feel more confident and families feel more connected.
Your Story. Your Purpose. Your Identity. Healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about uncovering who you've always been. Life has a way of shaping us. Painful experiences, trauma, loss, relationships, and fear can leave us carrying beliefs and protective patterns that once helped us survive, but now no longer serve us. Together, we'll explore your story, heal unresolved wounds, challenge limiting beliefs, and reconnect with the authentic identity that's been there all along.

Frequently asked questions


Find the right LGBTQ-friendly therapy provider for you
Headway makes it easier to connect with affirming therapists who understand your identity — from finding the right therapist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing an LGBTQIA+ Therapist in Huntsville, AL
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Huntsville starts with identity-affirming care. The right therapist may have experience with LGBTQIA+ concerns, identity exploration, gender identity, relationship stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare options, look for therapists who list affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, or LGBTQIA+-affirming care in their profile. These details can help you find someone whose training and listed specialties match what you want from care.
Huntsville has a steady mental health care community, but affirming therapists may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still connecting you with therapists licensed in Alabama. You may want to compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Read each bio for clear mentions of LGBTQIA+ populations, communication style, and approach to care before you book.
Therapy in Huntsville can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, show estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and offer direct scheduling. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book when you’re ready.
