Teal works in Alabama and holds the credential LPC, listed as AL LPC LPC01489. Teal centers conversations on the person's needs and tailors plans to fit each situation.

Background and approach

He draws from Client-Centered Therapy to create a listening space where people feel heard. He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that keep stress or depression active. When family dynamics or parenting issues come up, Teal looks at the history that shaped those patterns and helps families set clearer boundaries.

He brings Narrative Therapy and elements of Jungian and Existential approaches to explore meaning, roles, and identity within relationships. That can help with blended family challenges, adoption and foster care concerns, or fatherhood issues. Teal addresses addiction and recovery with a practical focus on choices and coping skills, and he supports work on grief, shame, and life transitions.

He aims to reduce overwhelm and help people build steady habits that fit their daily life. Sessions are offered in English and are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time that works for you.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and shaping the work around the person's goals. It aims to make clients feel understood so they can name what matters and try new ways of coping.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches simple tools to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build routines that reduce anxiety, depression, or addictive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Teal will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then adapt methods over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet that fit busy family life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when schedules are tight, and live chat or text messaging can help maintain contact between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while navigating work, school, and caregiving responsibilities.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
