Savannah O'Berry, LPC

Savannah O'Berry is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Alabama who uses practical, goal-oriented methods to help people manage anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. She centers sessions on clear steps and real-life tools so clients can notice change between meetings. Savannah keeps language simple and direct to make therapy feel manageable for someone juggling family and work demands.

Her main approach draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems stuck. She also incorporates acceptance and commitment therapy and mindfulness to help people tolerate hard feelings and live by their values. Sessions emphasize skills people can use at home, at work, and during stressful moments.

Savannah combines a client-centered attitude with motivational interviewing to support commitment to change. That means she listens first, helps set practical goals, and checks in on what works. Therapy is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.

She has six years of clinical experience working with issues such as stress, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, career strain, ADHD, and parenting challenges. Additional focus areas include attachment patterns, body image, caregiver stress, dissociation, and coping after disasters.

People who choose her can expect straightforward discussion, skill-building exercises, and ongoing review of progress. Savannah guides clients toward concrete strategies for coping, improving communication, and rebuilding daily routines after disruption.

Practical approaches for online change

Savannah blends cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to guide online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing thoughts and behaviors that cause distress, which helps with anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and problem habits. Acceptance and commitment therapy teaches people to notice hard feelings without fighting them and to act in ways that match their values, which is useful for grief, trauma recovery, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Savannah will listen to what matters most, discuss different methods, and together decide which tools to try first. She checks progress and adapts techniques based on goals and what feels helpful for each person.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video gives face-to-face interaction for skill demonstrations and deeper conversation. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Messaging and live chat allow short, frequent support and note-taking between sessions. These options make it easier to practice new skills in real time and keep momentum between meetings.
