Counseling Center – Garrett Counseling
Garrett Counseling was established in 2009 and operates seven office locations across Alabama, with in-person clinics in Albertville, Cullman, Huntsville, Jacksonville, Jasper, and Leeds. Telehealth services extend the practice’s reach to clients throughout the state who prefer or require remote appointments. The practice offers counseling for children, adolescents, and adults, addressing a broad range of mental health concerns across the lifespan.
Services offered include individual therapy, family counseling, couples and marriage counseling, and premarital counseling. Clinical modalities available include cognitive behavioral therapy, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), and play therapy delivered through both client-centered and sandtray approaches. Sex therapy is also listed among the practice’s service offerings. Presenting concerns addressed include anxiety, depression, ADHD, social anxiety, OCD, and trauma across all age groups served.
Populations include children, teens, and adults. The founder, Ashley Garrett, is identified on the site with a dedicated resume page, though credentials for all individual clinicians are not enumerated on the homepage.
Sessions are available both in person at any of the six Alabama office locations and via telehealth for clients across the state. Accepted insurance plans listed on the site include Alabama Medicaid, BlueCross, AllKids, and Aetna. Clients can manage appointments through an online patient portal.
Additional resources provided by the practice include a therapy garden, patient education video library, and a health topic blog covering mental health topics. An associated division called Brave Play offers continuing education unit (CEU) trainings designed for licensed mental health professionals. Spanish-language resources are available for patients, broadening accessibility among the patient population.
The practice can be reached by phone at (256) 239-5662. The practice’s website also features a consultation services section tied to the Brave Play division. The combination of multiple physical offices, a statewide telehealth option, diverse insurance acceptance, and professional development resources for clinicians positions Garrett Counseling as a broad-based mental health provider serving communities across northern and central Alabama.
