Getting to know Kentrell Thomas
Currently accepting new telehealth clients across Alabama. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, pre-surgical psychological evaluations and life transitions. I accept Aetna, Cigna/Evernorth, Optum, Quest Behavioral Health, Carelon Behavioral Health, and Anthem EAP.
I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) providing telehealth therapy to adolescents (14+), adults, caregivers, and families across Alabama. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, substance use, anger management challenges, life transitions and family conflict.
My approach is collaborative, structured, and grounded in evidence-based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed care. I focus on helping clients build practical coping skills, increase emotional awareness, and create meaningful, lasting change.
Seeking support can feel overwhelming, but taking the first step is important. My goal is to provide a safe, respectful space where you feel heard and supported as we work toward your goals.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Clients can expect a balanced approach that is both supportive and goal-oriented. I value open communication and create a space where you can speak honestly without fear of judgment. While therapy can involve challenging work, sessions are paced thoughtfully and tailored to your needs.
I integrate structured skill-building with reflection and insight, helping you better understand patterns, manage emotions effectively, and develop tools you can use outside of sessions.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Our first session focuses on understanding what brings you to therapy, your history, and your goals. We will identify key areas of concern and begin developing a treatment plan that feels realistic and meaningful to you.
In ongoing sessions, we track progress, strengthen coping strategies, and adjust interventions as needed. Therapy may include skill development, cognitive restructuring, emotional regulation work, relapse prevention planning (when applicable), and improving communication patterns.
My goal is to ensure you leave sessions feeling supported and equipped with tools that extend beyond the therapy room.
