Biofeedback Therapists in Tuscaloosa, AL

I believe in the process of therapy. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, codependency, addiction or self-image, I am here to help you. I provide a safe and comfortable environment where we can collaborate on working toward increased mental health and well-being. I have experience working with a wide range of clients in a variety of settings. I utilize an individualized approach with each client as therapy is not "one size fits all." I work with individual clients who are 18 or older.

Congratulations on beginning your journey to a more healthy and fulfilling life! My name is Leah Barrier and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker.

Please come see me even if you have tried therapy many times but still haven't given up on healing! My goal as a therapist is to have a large bag of tools for you so that we can find a technique that you respond to best. I love working with creative people, people who are suffering from anxiety, depression, conflict, people who have chronic pain despite medication adherence and people who are just plain confused about why they feel the way they do. I don't believe that any one approach works for every person, and want to work with you collaboratively to find out what it is that you need for your unique life story.

Most people come to therapy knowing that they have something they would like to address. It is my job to help you develop new ways of thinking and being, so that you can get beyond whatever is holding you back in your life. I use an integrative, wholistic approach which draws on the many disciplines in which I have training. Whether you enter therapy wanting to deal with anxiety, past trauma, or addiction, or you just want to function better in daily life, together we can work to meet your goals.

We are focused on Clients that are focused and motivated to get better, and are willing to put forth the effort to do so. Clients that are ready to dig deep and work on issues that are way past the surface. Clients who may not initially be in the contemplation stage of change, but knows that change is needed.

My ideal client is someone who struggles with anxiety, depression, ADHD, or feeling stuck in life, yet they are open-minded and motivated for personal growth. They seek relief from their emotional difficulties and desire to lead a more fulfilling life. They want to understand themselves better, learn coping strategies, and build resilience to navigate life's challenges. Ultimately, they aspire to cultivate greater happiness, fulfillment, and purpose in their lives.

I found my love for Social Work later in life. I was a middle school and high school English teacher and found that I loved working with my students and helping them with their struggles. This motivated me to go back to school and get my Master's in Social Work. I have worked extensively in community mental health, with homeless individuals, veterans, and a multitude of other populations. I still currently work in the field with these populations along with providing therapy. I absolutely love what I do!

Has life been feeling extremely difficult? Are you suffering from persistent negative self-talk and needing help to cope? I applaud you for taking steps to reach out for help. I have worked with individuals who struggled with a wide range of issues. I view therapy as a collaborative and interactive process striving for positive changes in troubled areas. I provide a safe, non-judgmental place where you can be heard and work towards the path of your healing and personal growth. My expertise includes sexual abuse, depression, anxiety, self-harm, addiction, psychosis, abandonment and the obstacles children face from foster care.

Sojourn means "to stay for a time in a place or to live temporarily". This is my view of our life on earth. It is a temporary stay, and our time here can be difficult, confusing and painful at times. Sometimes, we need help navigating. I believe that we each have a unique story and set of experiences that make us who we are. What we believe about ourselves and the world around us impacts how we feel and respond to life. I'd like to help you navigate life so that you may have the most abundant life possible.

Compassion and comfort during our most difficult times offer us healing and peace when our world is turned upside down. Here is a gentle reminder that having someone to express yourself and to voice your frustrations can transform a crisis into a calming and beautiful day. Your presence and peace of mind is the most important gift you can offer yourself weekly, biweekly, or monthly. Therapy sessions are affordable for you when using insurance, EAP coverage, or need self pay options. You can book appointments at your convenience to get started or send an email to schedule an appointment. I accept clients of all ages and ethnicities.

Emotional pain can leave us feeling anxious, depressed, and overwhelmed but I have great news! There is a path, a way out, for you to heal and experience peace and joy. You do not have to suffer anymore, white-knuckling it through most days, feeling hopeless and too broken to heal while wondering if your life will ever be fulfilling. I understand the dark nights of despair and how hard it is to reach out. So, I find you to be courageous, right here and now – taking a step to figure out if I can help. And the answer is ‘absolutely!’
