Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Homewood, AL


I am a family-oriented individual who understands the importance of balanced living, self-care, and healthy relationships. My formal education as a master's-level social worker, personal trials and errors, and 20-plus years of work experience with youth, individuals, and families have taught me that we are all unique human beings with our own life experiences with a shared desire for happiness. The difference in levels of individual and family satisfaction is often attributed to intentional effort to establish and maintain healthy relationships, mindsets, and perspectives. The goal of my practice is to empower hope, healing, & healthy relationships!

Something happened, and even if life has moved on around you, part of you is still carrying it.

My practice is built for people who are ready to stop managing and start actually healing.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC), I am passionate about helping individuals heal from the wounds that continue to shape their present. I am the CEO and Founder of Mental Freedom Counseling Services LLC, proudly recognized with the Best of Alabama 2026 Award in Counseling and Therapy Practices.

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.

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 Mobile

Searching for couples therapists in Mobile starts with finding a therapist trained to work with both partners and the patterns between them. Couples therapy in Mobile, AL, may support concerns like communication challenges, conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, and parenting disagreements. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with couples or marriage counseling in Mobile, AL. Licensed marriage and family therapists, or therapists trained in methods like the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, may be a strong fit for relationship-focused care.

Mobile offers a solid range of local therapy options, but finding one therapist who fits both partners’ needs can take some planning. Consider whether in-person sessions near your home or workplace make sense, or whether virtual appointments help both schedules align. Appointment times, session structure, therapeutic approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered can also help narrow the search. Reading therapist bios can show how each therapist works with couples, what concerns they list, and what the first session may involve.

Couples 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 understand what you may pay before care starts. Headway helps you find therapists who offer relationship counseling in Mobile, AL and are accepting new patients. Nationally, Headway partners with a wide range of insurance plans, and you can confirm what coverage is available in Mobile on Headway. You can compare therapists, review bios, check 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.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
