Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Mobile, AL

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.

Hi, I’m Portia Hines, a Licensed Professional Counselor. I work with adults who are experiencing anxiety, burnout, stress, or feeling overwhelmed, and help them regain clarity, emotional balance, and confidence. My approach is practical, supportive, and focused on helping you develop healthier ways to manage emotions, improve focus, and navigate life’s challenges. Together, we focus on meaningful progress so you can feel more grounded and in control of your daily life.

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.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who works with children, adolescents, and adults. I hold both a Master’s and an Educational Specialist degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Auburn University Montgomery. With a compassionate, client-centered approach, I partner with you to identify your strengths, understand your story, and navigate life’s challenges so you can experience meaningful growth, healing, and a greater sense of well-being.

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.
