Family therapy and counseling in Alabama

I’m a Licensed Social Worker with a deep commitment to helping individuals heal from trauma, navigate grief, and find safety and strength within themselves. My clinical focus is on trauma recovery, including PTSD and complex PTSD, as well as those experiencing loss and grief (both loss of a loved one and also disenfranchised grief).

Over the years, I’ve pursued extensive training in trauma-informed care, nervous system regulation, and grief processing.

Hello and Welcome!! My name is Afiya K. Hooker and I am a Licensed Psychotherapist with over 15 years of experience in the mental health wellness field and 10 years of experience as a psychotherapist. My specializations include anxiety, depression, trauma and the selves (self-identity, esteem, actualization, etc.).

I am Janet P. Stoudenmire-Smith, owner of Alabama Wellness and Recovery Services and a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor (LPC-S). I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, families, veterans, and court-referred clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, anger management concerns, substance use issues, family conflict, stress, and life transitions. My goal is to help clients find healing, hope, and wellness.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 17 years of experience supporting individuals and families across the lifespan, from the perinatal period through older adulthood. My professional background includes private practice, school counseling, and serving as an Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Consultant. All of these experiences deepened my understanding of how early life experiences shape long-term mental health and well-being. I believe healing and resilience are strengthened through meaningful connections—whether through family, community, or chosen support systems.

Have you ever felt like you're accomplishing everything but still feel unfulfilled or unsatisfied? Do you give so much of yourself to others that little is left for you at the end of the day? Does your child's behaviors (fighting, defiance, truancy, argumentative) leave you wondering what's really going on beneath the surface. It just might be time to take a deeper look.

I’m Tiana Welch, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, providing telehealth therapy for children, teens, and young adult/adult women. With six years of experience, I have supported clients facing many challenges, including mental health concerns, behavioral issues, and substance abuse. My passion lies in helping children, teens, and families take a deeper look at behaviors to uncover the root causes, and in supporting young adult and adult women as they peel back the layers of perfectionism, burnout, and societal expectations to reconnect with their true selves.

Outside of therapy, I enjoy attending Pilates and spin classes, coloring, painting, reading, and exploring new creative hobbies like learning to sew (this month).
