Jared Hood

Going through challenges? Been through tough life events in the past that hold you back from the thriving life you want? Simply want to grow and learn to be the best version of you? With 17 years of experience helping children, teens and adults, I am here to help. I am well versed in overall wellness including strength, fitness, and nutrition strategies to help you thrive physically, emotionally and spiritually. I am an NASM Certified Personal Trainer as well. I provide in person therapy in my space in Clanton or Pelham and online therapy for folks who live around Alabama.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and trauma specialist with over sixteen years of experience. I specialize in working with children and adults experiencing anxiety, grief/loss, chronic illness and trauma. I use a mix of TF-CBT, play therapy, integrated therapies, and somatic work. I am trained in EMDR for trauma-focused therapy.

I always start with an intake session, where I want to hear your story and what you hope to get out of therapy. I always want therapy to be a warm, welcoming environment that allows you to feel comfortable sharing and being vulnerable, while also feeling secure. From there, we’ll work together in the sessions that follow to make these goals a reality for you. My goal is to help you not just live life but thrive!
