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.

Cindy Yu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Cindy Yu is a bilingual (English and Mandarin Chinese) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of Florida, Alabama, and Illinois. She is well-trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, solution-focused therapy, Bowen’s theory, Gottman Method, CBT, and more. Cindy believes that each client is comprised of unique yet charismatic components such as personal upbringings, religious beliefs, and cultural backgrounds, that all contribute to narrate a cohesive personal story. This fundamental ideology has cultivated her into offering her clients unconditional positive regard and respect, while tailoring her treatment orientations to better serve each client’s individuality. Her passion is to help individuals, couples, and families to understand the misunderstood, to discover hope from the hopelessness, to speak the unspoken, and to seek possibilities through the impossible. Cindy also has a background in the medical field where she has obtained a strong foundational knowledge for medical diagnosis and medications. She understands the intricacy between medical burden and mental health.

Luciana C. Silva
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
Sometimes we find ourselves feeling stuck and hopeless about situations that, as hard as we try, we can’t seem to find a way out of. I partner with people from all walks of life to think through these situations in different ways, with special attention to the patterns and cycles that seem hidden in plain sight, and the possibilities for changing the only thing we can: ourselves. Changing how we react may not seem enough. Perhaps it seems unfair that we are the ones who ‘have’ to change. Yet…that’s where our power lies. If you’re ready to start reclaiming your agency and sense of Self – over anxiety, depression, relationship problems, family conflict, traumatic stress, and the stress of life transitions – give me a call and let’s chat and see if we can think together.

Sheila Cohen Furr, PhD
Psychologist, PhD, ABN, ACP
Divorce is one of the most difficult life challenges involving grief, disappointment, fear, anxiety, hope and a burdensome sense of responsibility. When I work with families before, during or after this period of challenge, I aim to create an emotionally safe environment where they can speak freely and from the heart while simultaneously helping them develop skills in self-care, finding authenticity, and communication, to promote success in managing the challenge and moving forward. One of the most frequent and shared themes is will their kids be okay and how can they help them through the divorce and its aftermath without their being damaged. This concern is frequently the first point of agreement between the co-parents and is the starting point of beginning meaningful, productive and positive discussions towards reaching agreements. My goal is to help a family in distress move to a better place through the divorce process than where they were when we met, and to give them a healthy path forward.
