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.

As a therapist and a person who has done my own work, I meet clients with genuine empathy, steady support, and a belief in their ability to grow.
I am a licensed independent clinical social worker (LICSW) with 5 years of experience supporting individuals through anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, and major life transitions. I help clients slow down, understand their emotions, and develop healthier patterns that feel sustainable. My approach is warm, steady, and collaborative, offering space to explore challenges, build coping skills, and feel more grounded and connected in everyday life.
I earned my Master of Social Work from Troy University and have clinical experience in behavioral health settings. My work integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based tools, strength-based approaches, and solution-focused techniques to support emotional regulation, insight, and long-term well-being.
I would be honored to support you as you navigate whatever you are facing. Together, we can create space for clarity, relief, and meaningful change at a pace that feels steady and empowering. If you are ready to begin—or simply curious about how therapy with me might help—I invite you to take the next step and schedule an appointment.

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.

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 have their ups and downs, even those that seem flawless. If you’re spending more time in the trenches or feel like you’ve lost a special connection with your partner, couples therapy may help you restore your relationship and communication.
Whether your relationship needs a jumpstart, a mediator, or just a little extra guidance and support, consider meeting with a licensed couples therapist at Thriveworks in Tuscaloosa, AL at (205) 539-9994.
All relationships have issues, some more complicated than others. Maybe you’ve never fought until recently, and you just don’t know how to stop yelling or come to a peaceful agreement. Even if you and your partner seem to be in a never-ending loop of conflict, couples therapy can help you break that cycle and see eye-to-eye again.
Couples counseling can help you resolve conflict and work through serious or deeply emotional problems, but it’s not only for duos in a crisis. Common issues addressed in couples therapy include:
There’s no wrong reason to pursue couples counseling and no bad time to begin improving your relationship. A couples therapist at Thriveworks in Tuscaloosa, AL, can help you fix what is broken, mend old wounds, and build a stronger relationship for the future.
People tend to change as they grow and age, so it makes sense that your dynamic would shift along the way. While this can be concerning, it also presents an opportunity to understand one another on a deeper level.
Couples therapy sessions focus on understanding and accepting each other and finding ways to problem-solve together without fighting. Many couples find that this approach improves their bond long-term and their relationships in other areas of their lives.
Some benefits you may take away from couples counseling include:
The skills and tools you gain from couples therapy can be applied to your relationships with friends, other family members, and coworkers. A healthier mindset and peace within your relationship can also lead to improved self-esteem and mental health.
