Thandi Wells

Thandi Wells is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on practical, skills-based therapy. She uses clear, direct conversations to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and eating and food-related concerns. Thandi aims to help clients build everyday skills that make life feel more manageable.

She brings eight years of clinical experience and a background that began in substance use case management. Over time she moved into roles with more responsibility, including primary therapist and program director. That hands-on path shaped her preference for straightforward, teachable tools people can use between sessions.

Her approach blends several well-known methods. Thandi often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses dialectical behavior skills for emotion regulation and client-centered principles to keep sessions focused on each person’s priorities.

Thandi describes her style as empathic but direct. She balances supportive listening with gentle challenge and practical education. This mix is meant to help people make steady progress toward goals like healthier relationships, better mood, and improved coping.

She practices in Alabama and communicates in English. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Thandi commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking action toward them, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. CBT helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns that feed anxiety, depression, or problematic behaviors.

She also draws from Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on what matters most to the client and emphasizes empathy and collaboration. These approaches are practical and goal-oriented, and they often pair well for people managing stress, mood concerns, relationship tensions, or eating and food-related struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and recommend methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is tracked.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make scheduling easier, let sessions fit into a busy day, and reduce travel time. It can also allow for shorter check-ins or audio-only meetings when video is difficult. Licensed professionals aim to match session length and style to what helps each person move forward.
