Hi, I’m Dr. Alicia Richardson. I believe healing begins when we feel seen, heard, and safe. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that everyone can grow, heal, and bloom. Whether you're navigating stress, trauma, relationship challenges, or simply seeking clarity, I provide a supportive space where you can reconnect with your inner strength and purpose. My goal is to walk alongside you with grace, authenticity, and care—helping you move forward, one heart-centered step at a time.
My passion is helping women to regain a feeling of control and authorship in their lives. I specialize in helping women with postpartum depression/anxiety, self-esteem issues and stress from life transitions. I received my Ph.D. in counseling psychology from Ohio State in 2008. I'm a licensed psychologist with over 15 years of experience.
Therapy is often a first step to discovering answers to questions we have about ourselves by providing us the safe space we need to share, gain insight through an objective and non-judgmental perspective, and make drastic changes for the better so I encourage and commend you in taking this step! My name is Candace and I've been working as a mental health professional since 2018 and I have worked with children (ages 8 & up), teens, and adults experiencing various struggles such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and trauma. In recent years my practice has been largely focused on women's issues and processing trauma.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Mobile
Finding therapists in Mobile starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist may fit your needs. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare therapists in Mobile, AL, look for training and listed specialties that match what you want to address. A therapist’s bio can also show their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or support for couples.
Mobile has a mix of local therapy options across areas like Midtown, Spring Hill, Downtown, and nearby communities. Some people prefer in-person sessions close to home or work, while others choose virtual appointments for more scheduling flexibility. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions and communicates with new clients.
Therapy in Mobile can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, review detailed bios, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Mobile, compare virtual and in-person options, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
