Thandi Wells, LPC, LCPC

Thandi Wells is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Alabama with eight years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, relationship challenges, parenting pressures, anger, and other life changes. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.

Thandi began her career as a case manager in substance abuse and moved into roles as a primary therapist and program director. That background informs her practical approach to addiction and co-occurring issues. She draws on direct experience helping people manage cravings, rebuild routine, and address communication problems that fuel relapse.

Her working style combines clear, client-centered listening with actionable skills. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and DBT skills to manage strong emotions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are woven in to help people clarify values and take workable steps toward them.

Thandi emphasizes education and what she calls empathetic confrontation. That means she challenges unhelpful patterns while teaching tools people can use right away. Expect short, focused teaching moments alongside reflective conversation.

She also incorporates relationship-focused methods such as principles from the Gottman Method to address conflict and improve communication. Her aim is to help people reduce reactivity, repair trust, and handle anger with clearer strategies.

People who reach out usually want straightforward techniques and real-world practice. To begin, the site matching process is used to schedule a first session after completing a short questionnaire.
