I believe healing begins with feeling seen, heard, and understood. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I create a space where clients can show up as they are without judgment and begin exploring the thoughts, experiences, and patterns that shape their lives. My approach blends insight, practical tools, and genuine conversation to help clients build self awareness, strengthen relationships, and move toward the version of themselves they want to become. Whether we are working through life transitions, emotional challenges, or relationship dynamics, my goal is to walk alongside you as you create meaningful and lasting change

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 am an intentional counselor who proactively plans my interactions and interventions based on a clear understanding of your situation and desired outcomes. I aim to understand your needs, strengths, and values to create a personalized plan that aligns with your goals and fosters positive change.

I have experience working with college students needing support adjusting to college life, building confidence, navigating social situations, and managing stress and anxiety.

I have also had the pleasure of supporting single mothers as they navigate the emotional impact of motherhood, mental health issues, financial stress, and building a support system. In my practice, I do not rely solely on one specific theory, but rather draw upon different theoretical perspectives.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Alabama rather than a city like Huntsville?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Alabama. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Alabama from Montgomery to Birmingham! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Alabama.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
