About Hiram
Hiram Faircloth is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Alabama with seven years of experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, career concerns, LGBT issues, and coping with life changes. He also addresses family of origin issues and related patterns that keep showing up in daily life.
Hiram describes his approach as integrative. He draws from Developmental Counseling Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, and mindfulness-based techniques. In sessions he aims to help people notice repeating patterns, name how those patterns affect choices, and try practical steps to shift them.
He earned a Master of Science in Counseling and Psychology from Troy University and an Educational Specialist degree in Clinical Mental Health from Auburn University at Montgomery. His work history includes community mental health, a university counseling center, and an inpatient behavioral hospital setting. That mix informs a practical way of working with stress and mood concerns.
Hiram identifies as an affirming counselor and lists experience supporting LGBTGEQIAP+ people. He also notes specific experience with BDSM, kink, and alternative sex culture and with issues around gender identity. He commonly helps people sort through fatherhood concerns, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and midlife transitions.
Sessions focus on clear goals and usable tools. Clients can expect conversation about family patterns, practical behavioral strategies, and mindfulness practices aimed at everyday situations. Before booking, confirm current session options to make sure they fit your needs.
How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions
Hiram integrates a few evidence-based techniques into his work. Cognitive Behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Mindfulness-based approaches teach simple attention and breathing practices people can use during stressful moments to reduce reactivity.He also uses ideas from Developmental Counseling Theory and Person-Centered principles to look at how early family roles and expectations shape current behavior. That helps people trace family of origin patterns and decide which habits they want to keep or change. Figuring out which mix of methods fits best is part of the work; Hiram collaborates with clients to try options and adjust them to the person's goals and preferences.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments into a workday or busy schedule and reducing travel time. Because session options are not specified in the biography, confirm current session formats before booking. Licensed professionals can offer helpful work over video or phone when those formats are available, and sessions can be structured for a short check-in or a longer therapeutic conversation depending on what you need.
