About Keshawna

Dr. Keshawna Swinton is a licensed professional counselor in Alabama with 14 years of experience. She focuses on relationship and family concerns, along with anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.

She aims to meet people where they are and create a clear path forward. Her approach centers on practical steps that feel doable for busy families. She uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help identify strengths and build small changes that add up.

Background and approach

Sessions often focus on what is working now and how to expand it, rather than dwelling on past problems. Conversations are direct, respectful, and tailored to each person’s situation. Her work covers a wide range of related issues including attachment and abandonment, communication and commitment problems, and challenges after divorce or separation.

She also supports people dealing with impulsivity, isolation, mood struggles, and questions about life purpose or midlife transitions. Dr. Swinton emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in every interaction.

She collaborates with clients to create goals and a plan that fits their routines and priorities. The goal is steady progress through focused, achievable steps. Sessions can be adapted to different formats and schedules.

New clients complete a brief matching questionnaire to begin and then schedule sessions that fit their availability. Her practice welcomes international clients and conducts sessions in English.

Solution-Focused Care Delivered Online

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on identifying what already works and doing more of it. The focus is on small, realistic steps and measurable goals. This approach can be useful for relationship and family challenges, anger management, and improving self-esteem.

Dr. Swinton emphasizes practical, goal-oriented conversations in online sessions. She works with clients to decide which strategies fit their life, and adjusts the plan as progress is made. Choosing the right approach is collaborative - she helps clients weigh options and pick methods that match their needs and preferences.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules, to connect from different time zones, and to continue work between appointments. The variety of formats allows people to pick what feels most manageable and consistent for them.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
