I provide experiential-based counseling services for all ages. It is important to me that you have an experience in therapy that is uniquely yours. Standard talk therapy is not for everyone and that is why I offer other options that you may find more therapeutic and beneficial. During your intake consultation, I will help you choose a path that will best meet your needs.

Margaret Silva

Therapist

Virtual • Alabama


Hello! I'm Margaret Silva, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with resilience, creativity, and confidence. I believe that therapy should be as dynamic and unique as the people I work with. Rather than just sitting and talking, my practice often incorporates creative, activity-based interventions—such as art, games, and media—to make the therapeutic process engaging, accessible, and deeply meaningful. I specialize in helping clients build vital social-emotional skills, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop practical problem-solving strategies for everyday life. I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, stress, trauma and PTSD, OCD, ADHD, grief and loss, relationship issues, family issues, behavioral challenges, and life transitions. I also welcome clients working through men's issues, women's issues, identity, and infertility or pregnancy loss. My goal is to create a safe, collaborative, and uplifting space where you (or your child) feel truly heard, supported, and empowered to grow!

Are you longing for a space where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and supported? When anxiety, PTSD, depression, life transitions, etc. begin to weigh heavily, it can feel difficult to move forward. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where healing and hope can begin to take root.

I am a graduate of the University of Alabama’s Master’s program in Rehabilitation Counseling, with a focus on recovery, and I bring additional experience from working in foster care and educational settings. This background informs my trauma-aware, person-centered approach.

Therapist

I’m an independently licensed therapist in Alabama, and my background includes working full-time as a substance use counselor while also providing evening virtual therapy. I especially enjoy working with teens and adults, and I’m drawn to this work because I believe therapy should help people feel more free, more grounded, and more like themselves again. It means a lot to me when someone trusts me with the parts of their life that feel messy, painful, or overwhelming. I want therapy to feel like a space where you can be honest, feel respected, and begin building real momentum toward the life you want.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who believes that healing happens best in spaces that are safe, honest, and non-judgmental. I work with those who are navigating stress, anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the effects of trauma.

My approach is collaborative and practical. We will focus on understanding what’s showing up in your life, identifying patterns that may be holding you back, and developing tools you can use in real-world situations. I don’t believe in perfection—I believe in progress.

Clients often describe me as direct, supportive, and easy to talk to. I meet you where you are while also helping you move toward where you want to be. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply ready for something different, you don’t have to figure it out alone.

When life feels overwhelming, it's easy to get caught in a cycle of anxious thoughts, emotional exhaustion, or self doubt that makes it hard to enjoy the things that once brought you joy. Anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, or difficult life experiences can leave you feeling stuck, disconnected, or constantly waiting for things to get better. You don't have to navigate that journey alone. I partner with individuals experiencing anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, depression, and OCD so they can find greater emotional balance, regain confidence in themselves, and build a life that feels calmer, healthier, and more fulfilling. Working with adolescents and adults, I strive to create a supportive, judgment free space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and empowered to make lasting change.

Christle Reddix

Therapist

Virtual • Alabama


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.
