Family Therapy in Birmingham, AL

At times we feel off-balance, insecure, overwhelmed, confused, or disappointed. We all face challenges and unexpected events. Life is full of ups and downs and occasionally we find ourselves needing support. In therapy we learn how to navigate the waves of life. Therapy is a purposeful, supported journey where you explore, challenge, and are restored to an improved quality of life.

Are you feeling stuck in some part of your life? Trying to navigate a romantic, peer, or parent-child relationship, life transition, anxiety or depression? Struggling to figure out what's getting in the way sexually, emotionally, or mentally? Does it feel like something is inhibiting life satisfaction, security and connection but hard to figure out what that is? I want to meet you where you are and help you get to where you want to be. I use a collaborative approach to tailor therapeutic techniques to fit your unique needs and personality. My joy and passion in being an MFT stems from the journey of moving through change with you.

You’ve been trying to hold it together and you’re not sure you can do it anymore. Sometimes you feel alone and confused about what to do next.

At some point in our lives, everyone experiences difficulties they need help with!

I am Fanicy H. Sears, owner, of eMotion Therapy. I am a certified Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, Board Certified Telemental Health Therapist and Psychedelic Integration Therapist. My goal as a trauma therapist and psychedelic integration therapist is to help individuals who experience treatment resistant mood disorders and complicated grief obtain relief and rediscover a new sense of normalcy. I provide Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, a therapeutic approach that utilizes ketamine (a physician prescribed anesthetic) to help rebalance the brain and accelerate the therapeutic process through psychedelic integration.

For over 26 years I have been working with people seeking improvements in their personal lives or relationships. I welcome individuals, couples or families from all backgrounds whether their concerns are personal or relational. My approach is “strength-based,” which means that I look for client competencies and resources, and try to avoid pathologizing people because of their problems, past or diagnoses. How often and how long the therapy will last depends on client goals and treatment needs and will be mutually agreed upon. The atmosphere in my office is relaxed and warm, and clients are always treated with dignity and respect.

Anxiety, Depression, Relationships, Addictions, Trauma. Counseling/Therapy is investment in quality of life. People seek help when frustrated, confused, overwhelmed.

Have you experienced painful loss? Do you frequently feel tense and uneasy? Does the life you live differ from the life you want?

Hey, I'm Larkin and I'm genuinely glad you're here! The idea that we or our loved ones are struggling and need help can stir up a number of uncomfortable emotions that we often try to ignore. If there is one thing I believe holds true, it is that having feelings makes us human. Feelings help us understand the world, they guide our thoughts and behaviors, they impact our relationships, and when we learn to listen to what they are trying to tell us, they can help us grow. When our lives have been impacted by trauma or adverse experiences, tuning back in to our mind and body can feel daunting and that is where I come in!

Whether you are facing a job transition, conflict in your relationship, a death of a friend or relative, or another pressing concern, therapy provides you someone to listen, to walk beside you through these experiences, and to offer guidance and support as you face new discoveries and insights to your life and well-being. I have experience working with adults, adolescents, couples, and families and view therapy as your opportunity to grow healthier -- mentally, emotionally, behaviorally, relationally, and spiritually.

Welcome and Congratulations on making the decision to improve your life! Are you facing challenges and you don’t know where to turn?

I approach therapy from a strength-based, holistic, solution-focused perspective.

Everyone has felt the pain of betrayal, guilt, shame, rejection, and discouragement. Life and family interactions present challenges. You and your family are unique; but the issues and challenges you face are shared by others. We're human. We need to feel loved and supported. We need to enjoy life! But sometimes, life gets in the way. I am here to help you and your family successfully manage and overcome life's challenges and seize life's opportunities. I believe that hope for the future, healing from the past and the ability to enjoy everyday life is possible and occurs in the context of healthy relationships.

I believe anyone can change with the desire to want to change. I feel that having someone to listen to you and talk issues through is important and key to successful growth and change. We are all social beings with hurts, feelings, and issues to work through and I am a therapist that will listen and help you work through your life situations. Together there are no hurdles that can't be accomplished.

Life can be tough to navigate alone. Are you struggling with internal conflict because your lifestyle contradicts your values?

Have past stress or emotional pain affected your self-esteem, body image, avoidance, or trust? Allow me to support you as you navigate through these challenges.

Now accepting BCBS Insurance. You’re on call 24/7, always needed, always giving. While caregiving is your passion and your calling- you're just exhausted. You want and need to be there for the important people in your life. You've dedicated yourself to helping clients, customers, family, friends, or patients in need. But somehow it's simultaneously fulfilling and draining. You need a vacation. But who needs those anyway? You'll be okay... right? Giving is a noble value. It is so important to leave this world better than you found it. But you can't pour from an empty cup.

It has been said: "God uses our deepest pain as a launchpad for our highest calling". However, a lot of the times we become immobilized aka "stuck" by the pains we have endured. My goal in counseling is to remind believers and non-believers that there is hope past the pain, shame, and doubt they are experiencing; through modalities of individual, couples, family and pre-marital counseling. Do not let shame and doubt rule over you any longer but instead gain insight and authenticity as you understand your Creator, your process and yourself more fully.

My ideal client is someone who is looking for support with taking the next step in their lives. They are looking for someone to help provide them the tools to take that step and support them in accomplishing their goals.
