About
Having lived experience with a multitude of situations and conditions, I use a whole person model approach to support a person in the exploration of their authentic self for healing, growth & development, and identifying their resilience in life's ups and downs.
I am a licensed independent clinical social worker with over 25 years of experience. Working with individuals of varying backgrounds and challenging issues—including addictions (all forms), complex post-traumatic stress, grief and loss, and difficult life transitions—has given me the ability to see and support people through their most difficult burdens, help them gain skills and insight, and uncover their strengths, capabilities, and resolve. People just want to feel better, have a sense of agency, and live life with some peace. I am honored to walk that journey with them.
I draw on a multitude of clinical modalities. Looking at an individual's history, childhood experiences, strengths, and challenges helps determine the best course of action—and the client always has the final say in their care. I am honest, compassionately confrontational, and reality-based, helping clients find the courage and insight to reach their goals.
I understand the difficulty in asking for help and the resistance to leaning on someone else to make real changes. I know the hurt you don't want anyone to know about and the deep-seated need to be understood. Let me walk alongside you—offering support, encouragement, and insight. Take that HUGE step forward and schedule an appointment. I am here for you.

Grounded in my own experience with trauma and loss, I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental approach that helps you process life’s challenges and build empowering skills for lasting change.
Hi, I'm Brittany Hall, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with a passion for helping individuals navigate life's challenges. I earned my Master's degree in Social Work from Jacksonville State University, where I developed a strong foundation in evidence-based practices and client-centered care. I work with adults and adolescents facing trauma, grief, anxiety, and life transitions—drawing from my own experiences with personal trauma and loss to offer an authentic understanding of how painful circumstances impact us while helping you build skills that foster healing and growth.
My approach draws from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), strengths-based methods, and trauma-informed care to help clients understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while building practical skills for everyday life. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered—and where the therapeutic relationship itself becomes a source of support and growth.
I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to offer a safe, supportive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward at your own pace. When you’re ready, I invite you to take the next step and begin your journey toward healing and growth.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Couples therapy and marriage counseling, also known as relationship counseling, helps couples work through their specific relationship issues. Some examples of common focuses within couples therapy and marriage counseling include:
The types of therapy used in couples and marriage counseling include:
At Thriveworks, Couples/marriage therapy is led by licensed professionals — often licensed marriage and family therapists (LMFTs) — who are experts in their field and best-equipped to help couples.
The Gottman Method of couples therapy is a research-supported approach designed to enhance relationships by bolstering the bond between partners, resolving conflicts, and fostering shared meaning in their relationship through comprehensive assessments and tailored interventions that improve communication, trust, and the overall health of the partnership.
If you’re facing persistent relationship problems, communication breakdowns, or unresolved conflicts that are impacting your emotional well-being and happiness, Couples/marriage therapy may be beneficial for you.
While marriage and couple’s counseling is typically recommended for couples who are experiencing persistent or severe relationship issues, any relationship can benefit from attending these sessions.
Marriage and couples counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you and your partner.
On average, couples attend marriage and couples counseling for 12 weeks. However, couples & marriage counseling may last longer or shorter, dependent on the couples’ needs, the challenges they’d like to work through, and the pace of their progress.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance. Self-pay rates for talk therapy range from $160 to $240 for intake sessions and $135 to $195 for follow-ups, depending on your state. For psychiatry services, self-pay intake sessions are $255–$375, with follow-ups ranging from $175–$300, also varying by state. More information on current self-pay costs is available on our pricing page.
All relationships go through rough patches sometimes and none are without their fair share of challenges. Even the most perfectly matched couples disagree from time to time, and conflict can arise over seemingly small issues. But if you and your partner are arguing often or feel like your relationship is at a crossroads, it’s okay to ask for help and pursue counseling with a couples therapist or counselor.
Couples counseling can help you resolve a wide variety of issues that may be testing the strength of your relationship. Whether you’re facing a major complication like infidelity, a tough life transition, or simply having a hard time communicating lately, a licensed marriage and family therapist at Thriveworks in Birmingham, AL can help you work through your differences and reconnect. Reach out today for help.
Relationships require effort, plenty of patience, and lots of nurturing. Even with all the right components, problems may still arise. Couples counseling can help you smooth over the rocky parts of your relationship and highlight the components that make it stronger.
Some common reasons couples seek couples therapy include:
Marriage and couples therapy is not only for couples in crisis. It also helps couples overcome short-term issues, resolve conflict, and improve their relationships significantly over time.
Therapy sessions will lead you to understand each other on a deep, meaningful level and show you how to effectively communicate your thoughts, emotions, and desires. This understanding can build (or rebuild) a solid partnership based on mutual respect and help you peacefully resolve any future issues that arise.
Some of the ways couples therapy can improve your relationship include:
Couples counseling can also indirectly improve other relationships in your life. The communication skills you learn during therapy sessions can help you convey ideas and connect more effectively with coworkers and improve your performance at work. Many clients find that therapy also helps them work out the kinks in their family relationships and restore damaged friendships.
You and your partner both deserve to feel loved, respected, and understood. At Thriveworks, our couples counselors can help you forge and maintain that meaningful bond.
Thriveworks makes it easy to schedule couples therapy sessions and offers appointments that work around your busy schedules. Appointments are available seven days a week, even in the evenings, and we also make cancellations a breeze. We also provide online counseling opportunities for those days when your schedules just don’t match up and make in-person visits impossible. Plus, new clients can often meet with a provider within the same week as scheduling.
If you’re ready to take the next step in bettering your relationship, consider pursuing relationship counseling with a licensed therapist at Thriveworks in Birmingham, AL. We’re ready to provide the support you need to thrive together.
