Therapists in Alabama

Hello, my name is Clint, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with adults who struggle with difficult life transitions, particularly older adults, individuals living with disabilities, and caregivers supporting loved ones. I also help clients with low self-esteem, helping them build confidence and develop healthier ways to cope with life’s challenges. Life can be challenging, and many people find themselves feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or discouraged after a painful experience or major life change. Reaching out for support takes courage, and I want to acknowledge the important step you’ve taken by being here. Many of the clients I work with come to therapy while navigating difficult life transitions. These experiences can bring uncertainty, emotional strain, and significant changes in identity or daily life. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I help clients learn to accept difficult emotions, stay grounded in the present, and reconnect with their values so they can move forward in meaningful and fulfilling ways. Other clients that I work with struggle with low self-esteem and persistent self-doubt. When confidence is low, it can affect how we see ourselves, interact with others, and respond to stress. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help clients recognize unhelpful thought patterns, challenge self-criticism, and develop practical skills that strengthen self-worth and promote healthier ways of thinking. As self-understanding and confidence grow, many people discover they already possess the resilience needed to cope with life’s challenges. My goal is to help you reconnect with those strengths and build a life that feels balanced, meaningful, and authentic to who you are. If this resonates with you, I would be honored to support you in taking the next step toward the life you want.

I’m Joy Washington, a clinical social worker and psychotherapist. I specialize in providing compassionate, evidence-based support to adults navigating chronic stress, health challenges, trauma, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative, grounded in respect, and focused on helping you build insight, resilience, and meaningful change. I've worked in mental health for over 20 years, and throughout that time I’ve always been drawn to helping people take care of themselves and make sense of their emotions. Supporting others through hard moments feels like meaningful, purpose-driven work for me. I’m passionate about creating a space where people can heal and grow.
