Fallon Reynolds
Licensed Professional Counselor, EdS, LPC
"Navigating the teenage years can feel like walking a tightrope, as young people balance academic pressures, shifting social dynamics, and the search for their own identity. In our work together, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where adolescents can explore these challenges without the pressure of having all the answers. My approach blends empathy with practical DBT and CBT-informed skills, helping your child or teen manage intense emotions, build resilience, and develop healthier ways to navigate relationships. Whether they are dealing with school stress, mood swings, or the complex transitions of growing up, I am here to help them cultivate the tools they need to feel more grounded and confident in themselves."

Online in Mobile, AL
Mobile is Alabama's only seaport and one of the Gulf Coast's oldest cities, with a Creole heritage and Mardi Gras tradition that predate New Orleans's celebrations — giving it a cultural richness distinct from most Alabama cities. The city has a large African American population and a significant community connected to the healthcare and aerospace sectors, including Airbus's US manufacturing base. University of South Alabama and USA Health provide both institutional mental health resources and clinical training programs that feed into the local therapy community. Mobile's strong faith community and conservative Southern culture mean spiritually integrated therapy is widely available, and therapists who can work within diverse religious frameworks find broad acceptance across the city's varied neighborhoods.
