Váthos Counseling
Counselor/Therapist, ALC, NCC, MA
Váthos Counseling – Therapy for Individuals, Adolescents, and Families in Birmingham
I am passionate about helping adults heal from the lasting impact of childhood trauma, parental loss, narcissistic abuse, and the complexities of codependency, especially where it affects self-worth and relationships.
I offer specialized adolescent counseling to support teens navigating identity formation, self-discovery, and emotional regulation. My goal is to help young people build a strong sense of self, increase resilience, and develop healthy coping strategies.
I also work with families affected by generational trauma and enmeshed dynamics, guiding them to break free from dysfunctional patterns and create more authentic, connected relationships.
Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your teen, or your family, I provide a compassionate space where healing and transformation can begin.

I believe therapy should be a supportive and collaborative space where people of all ages feel understood and valued. I provide outpatient psychotherapy for children, teens, and adults, drawing from psychodynamic, CBT, and family systems approaches to support meaningful growth and healing. My goal is to help clients navigate challenges, strengthen relationships, and foster resilience in ways that feel authentic and lasting.

Family Systems Therapy
Sara Fraser
Psychologist, PhD
I have been a therapist for many years and in many settings. In describing my practice to prospective clients, I like them to know that we work in three intersecting and overlapping domains-present, past and process. In the present, we focus on how you are able to care for yourself and for others, cultivate relationships with self and other in ways that are enriching and not depleting. Using the past, we can come to understand how you show up in relationships, as informed by patterns laid out in your family of origin but in the hopes that you can come to understand and then do differently if you want, rather than acting from a place of default and habit. And finally, we can use process therapies such as EMDR and Deep Brain Reorienting, to help you truly process and move past your past experiences and help you to shed the weight of past trauma. I use a pragmatic and interactive style to collaborate with clients to assist them in choosing the therapeutic path that fits best for them. Therapy is about healing and I value using trusted and effective approaches to help you reach your goals in therapy in a timely way that allows you to move on from our relationship into living your life fully and completely. I offer a free, 30-minute initial consult call so we can connect and see how we might be a good fit. Email me to schedule that today!

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!

Joy Rabon
Marriage and Family Therapist, MA, LMFT
With over three decades of experience in mental health, I bring a warm, down-to-earth approach to supporting adults through life’s most challenging experiences. My clinical work focuses on trauma and PTSD (including complex trauma) anxiety, depression, stress management, grief, life transitions, and women's issues.
I strive to create a space that feels collaborative, reflective, and grounded in empathy. My therapeutic style blends traditional psychotherapy with holistic, systemic, and neuroscience-informed approaches—helping clients reconnect with themselves and others in meaningful ways.

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.
