In our Life Coaching program, we ensure that every client is partnered with a skilled life coach. These coaches play a pivotal role in guiding clients to hone essential life skills, fostering unwavering accountability, and adeptly navigating various facets of life. Through steadfast guidance and uplifting motivation, our coaches stand by our clients’ sides as they stride confidently towards their aspirations. 

in case of emergency

In the event of a mental health emergency, please reach out to 911 or contact the Crisis Center at 205-323-7777. 

Self-knowledge is crucial because it empowers individuals to understand their own emotions, motivations, strengths and limitations leading to better decision-making, improved relationships, and personal growth.

Therapy can provide effective strategies and techniques to help individuals manage and reduce stress, enhancing their overall well-being and coping skills.

For those who prefer to see a counselor in-person, we offer very comfortable and private offices at a convenient, central location.
