About Thandi

Thandi Wells is a Licensed Professional Counselor who uses practical, evidence-informed techniques to help people regain balance. She brings eight years of clinical experience and blends structured tools with empathetic conversation. Thandi practices from Alabama and offers sessions in English.

Her approach grew from front-line work in substance abuse services where she moved from case manager to program director. That background shaped her focus on addiction, coping skills, and relapse prevention.

Background and approach

She also helps people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and challenges around intimacy and self-esteem. Thandi often uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and build new patterns. She also applies dialectical behavior strategies to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are used to clarify values and take meaningful action. In sessions she pairs clear feedback with teaching. Conversations include skill practice, concrete exercises, and planning for real-life situations.

She also offers coaching-style support for career changes, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. Thandi lists experience addressing relationship problems, family-of-origin issues, codependency, substance use, ADHD, anger, and identity concerns such as LGBT issues. Her work centers on helping people find steadier coping, clearer communication, and more satisfying daily routines.

Online support

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts while choosing actions that match their values. Online ACT work often uses brief exercises, values clarification, and simple behavioral experiments to support change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting and reshaping unhelpful thoughts and routines. In video or text sessions CBT uses practical homework, step-by-step skill building, and short behavioral assignments to create new habits.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will review goals, preferences, and daily challenges to decide together which methods to try first. Sessions can shift over time - for example starting with CBT skills for immediate relief, then adding ACT ideas to support longer-term values-based goals.

Online formats offer flexibility for fitting therapy into busy schedules. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and guided skill practice. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, coaching-style guidance, and shorter problem-focused exchanges. These options make it easier to use therapy consistently while tailoring session style to what helps most.
