Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Dothan, AL

I provide teletherapy for teens, adults, couples, and families, specializing in anxiety and depression. With experience across a wide range of mental health challenges, I offer compassionate, goal-oriented support tailored to you. My mission is to help you overcome obstacles and reach your fullest potential—on your schedule and in your own space.

As a single mom of color, I have witnessed the extreme societal pressure placed on mothers to choose between their career or their children; leaving little room to even provide attention to their own self care. This ignited a passion within me to use my skills to support women to navigate through the chaos. My goal is to work with those women who may need help coping through these very real everyday stressors. Not a mom? That's ok! I can also empathize with the pressure placed on women of color in the workplace to work so much harder than their male counterparts. Its my hope to create a safe space for you to explore these feelings.

It can be challenging at times for women to have access to a therapist who can empathize with their experiences. Through a strengths based approach, I would love to share my personal experience with being a woman of color, a mom, a Christian, as well as a goal oriented professional in non-profit leadership and mental health.

Through this journey, I want you to find a sense of fulfillment, purpose, and self worth and I would be honored to take that walk with you. Our sessions will not be for me to "social work" you, but for you to unload some of the pressure and burden to make the ride a bit easier. No matter what it feels like, you got this... you can do this!

Therapy is often a first step to discovering answers to questions we have about ourselves by providing us the safe space we need to share, gain insight through an objective and non-judgmental perspective, and make drastic changes for the better so I encourage and commend you in taking this step! My name is Candace and I've been working as a mental health professional since 2018 and I have worked with children (ages 8 & up), teens, and adults experiencing various struggles such as depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and trauma. In recent years my practice has been largely focused on women's issues and processing trauma.

It is my mission to foster greater self-awareness and self- care, while improving individuals' ability to love their self and others, ultimately striving to live a fulfilled life. I strive to support the community by providing individual, couples counseling. I am experienced in working with individuals 18 & up that suffer from: anxiety, anger, blended families, career exploration, couples counseling, depression, family conflict, PTSD, relationships, self-control, sex counseling, sexual orientation, social skills, substance abuse, trauma and sports performance in athletics.

I specialize in following areas: Couples Counseling, PTSD, Anxiety, Adolescents and Depression. My goal is to empower my clients to break negative patterns of thinking, feeling and communicating, developing a heightened self- awareness that will produce lifestyle change resulting in greater mental, physical and spiritual functioning within their lives.

Are you feeling stuck between who you are and who you know you were meant to be? I help clients grappling with meaning, mortality, authenticity, and purpose. Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I specialize in depression, anxieties, and addictions that have these deeper existential roots. I help people struggling with shame, loneliness, heartbreak, aging, illness, grief, and loss of meaning build a life worth living and a Self worth living it. I believe in building new skills. But my ultimate aim is to help you find and liberate your higher Self.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a strong background in trauma-informed care, anxiety treatment, and grief work. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and respectful of your lived experience. I understand how past trauma, chronic stress, and life transitions can shape the nervous system and impact daily functioning, even when life looks “okay” on the outside. My role is to meet you where you are, without judgment, and help you make sense of your experiences while building practical tools for healing. I value authenticity, emotional safety, and meaningful connection in the therapeutic relationship.

Hi, I'm Dr. Daniel! I'm a jack of all trades & master of none. I'm a U.S. Marine Corps veteran. Before my clinical training, I completed a BSc in Organizational Management, a Master of Divinity in Chaplaincy, and a Doctor of Ministry. I'm an Ordained member of the clergy. Later, I completed a Master in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have completed all of the core courses for a PhD in Counseling and Psychological Studies, only the dissertation remains. I'm nationally board certified.

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.
