Kayla, a licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in community mental health, recognized the profound disparities in access to mental health care within BIPOC communities. Inspired by a vision of creating a space where healing is both inclusive and affordable, she founded Helen’s Project with the belief that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of their background or financial situation.Helen’s Project operates on the principle that culturally competent and empathetic mental health care is essential for holistic well-being. The organization collaborates with a diverse team of mental health professionals who not only possess clinical expertise but also understand the unique cultural nuances and challenges faced by the BIPOC community.
Healing happens when you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move forward. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating anxiety, OCD, family conflict, anger management, and cultural & ethnic identity concerns while also helping clients facing depression, trauma, stress, grief, ADHD, relationship challenges, women's issues, physical health concerns, and life transitions. With more than 17 years of experience in mental health, I bring a diverse background that includes private practice, school counseling, and serving as an Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant. These experiences have strengthened my belief that lasting growth happens through meaningful connections—with ourselves, our relationships, and our communities. Whether you're seeking support during a difficult season or looking to create lasting change, I'm committed to meeting you where you are with compassion, respect, and practical guidance.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Montgomery
Finding couples therapists in Montgomery starts with identifying what you want to work on together. Couples therapy can support communication challenges, conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life changes, and parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have the same couples training, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists, marriage counselors, or therapists who list approaches like the Gottman Method or Emotionally Focused Therapy. Reading each profile can help you see whether their experience matches the kind of relationship counseling you want.
In a mid-size city like Montgomery, it helps to compare both local office options and virtual appointments. Some couples prefer meeting in person, while others need virtual sessions that fit two schedules. When narrowing your search for couples counseling in Montgomery, AL, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a brief consultation before the first session. Provider bios can also show how a therapist structures sessions, works with both partners, and approaches marriage counseling or relationship concerns.
Couples therapy in Montgomery can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs, and Headway helps you see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can search therapists in Montgomery, AL who offer couples therapy, review their specialties and availability, and book directly when you find someone who matches your needs, schedule, and insurance plan.
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.
