EFT
Erin Severe
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Is it difficult to communicate with your partner? Do you feel like you are drifting apart from each other after have the same arguments over and over? Are you coping with emotional or physical trauma? I help individuals and couples who are facing challenges in their relationships, neurodiversity, struggling with imposter syndrome, low self-esteem, mood or anxiety issues, coping with trauma, or managing the symptoms and effects of attention deficit disorder (ADD/ADHD) so that they can lead happier and more satisfying lives. I also run a support group for anyone going through separation or divorce.
Psychotherapy for couples and individuals looking to benefit from a supportive and collaborative environment. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and use a strengths-based approach to help you make changes in patterns of thinking and behaving and to find solutions to difficulties. I also use the Gottman Method and EFT to work with couples.
You’re here looking for help and that is and this is a great step towards making manageable changes and becoming the best version of yourself that you can be. Please contact me if you think that we would be a good fit to work together to achieve your goals. You can learn about me and all of our services on our website.

EFT
Dr. Andrew Bingman
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist, PsyD
Many people struggle with the belief that they are not good enough, and they subsequently suppress parts of themselves that they fear will alienate them from others. My primary task as a therapist is to create a safe and validating environment in which you can feel free to be your whole self, without fear of rejection or judgment. My goal is to recognize, understand, and honor each part of you, especially the parts that feel most vulnerable.

RGV Cross Over Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, M. Ed., LPC (AL), LPC (TX)
I believe what makes a therapist great is the ability to love and accept their clients just as they are and to know that clients have the autonomy to choose and to make the best choice for their own life. Although there might be times when we are confronted with difficulties and trials, these are not permanent and clients can use these seasons for growth. This belief makes RGV Cross Over Counseling a great choice for you, and a stepping stone to crossover into healing!

Birmingham carries one of the most significant civil rights legacies of any American city — the site of the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing and pivotal moments in the fight for racial justice — and this history creates a distinctive context in which racial identity, historical trauma, and community resilience are active themes in local therapy culture. The city is home to UAB (University of Alabama at Birmingham), one of the country's premier academic medical centers, which anchors significant mental health research, training, and clinical infrastructure. Birmingham's African American community — which comprises a majority of the city's population — drives strong demand for culturally affirming therapists who understand racial trauma and intergenerational resilience. The broader Birmingham metro's mix of healthcare, finance, and manufacturing industries creates diverse occupational therapy demand across a metropolitan area larger than the city itself.
