About Connie

Connie Fleming is a licensed professional counselor with over 30 years of practice. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and the everyday strain of life changes. Her work often includes support around relationship and family concerns and ADHD.

Clients find her approach calm and straightforward. She listens first, then helps people identify small, doable steps forward. Sessions focus on real-life problems and practical skills rather than abstract theory.

Background and approach

Connie uses several therapy approaches to match a person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people focus on values and take action. She uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thoughts and experiment with new behaviors.

Emotionally-focused work helps when relationship patterns and attachment issues are central. Her background includes long experience helping people through grief and major life transitions. She also supports those facing workplace stress, compassion fatigue, adoption and foster care concerns, and caregiver strain.

Parenting and blended family challenges are areas she addresses with concrete communication strategies. Conversations in her sessions center on safety, clarity, and steady progress. She helps people name painful emotions and then builds coping tools to lessen their impact.

The goal is clearer thinking, better day-to-day functioning, and stronger connections with others. Connie practices in Alabama as an AL LPC. She conducts sessions in English and offers several online formats for people who need flexibility.

Practical approaches for online care and ADHD support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and then take concrete steps toward those values, even when uncomfortable feelings are present. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is useful when relationship patterns and attachment needs are central, helping people name emotions and change how they respond to one another.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, life circumstances, and style preferences, then suggest ways to try different techniques. That collaborative process helps shape sessions so they feel relevant and useful.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick questions, brief reflections between sessions, or when writing feels more comfortable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into school, work, and caregiving routines.
