About
Vicki Farley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alabama with over 20 years of experience supporting people through concerns ranging from everyday stressors to more complex, long-standing challenges. Her background includes work in private practice as well as addictions treatment programs, and she has worked with individuals across the lifespan, from teens to seniors.
In addition to her counseling licensure, she is also a Registered Nurse, which some clients find helpful when they want space to process, accept, and adjust to a medical condition affecting themselves or someone they love. She brings an understanding of how health concerns can shape emotions, relationships, and day-to-day coping, and she aims to help clients find steadier footing as they navigate change.
Her therapeutic style is warm and client-centered, grounded in the belief that meaningful progress begins with being heard. Influenced by Jung and Adler, she values thoughtful exploration of patterns, purpose, and personal strengths, while her training in cognitive-based therapy allows her to draw on practical CBT tools when they fit the situation. Vicki tailors her approach to each person, listening closely and collaborating to help clients make sense of their story and move toward answers that feel authentic and workable.

Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Sessions
Vicki Farley uses a client-centered foundation, which means sessions are guided by what the client wants to talk about most and paced with care. The focus is on being heard, understood, and supported while clarifying goals and next steps in a way that feels respectful and practical.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when it fits the concern. CBT helps clients notice how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact, then practice new ways of responding to stress, anxiety, low mood, or life transitions. For clients who want skills they can apply between sessions, she may incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools that build emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and healthier communication during challenging moments.
Because people and situations differ, finding the right approach is part of the work. Vicki collaborates with clients to identify what feels most helpful, adjusting the balance of supportive listening and structured strategies based on needs, goals, and preferences.
Online therapy can make it easier to stay consistent with care. Clients can connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can be especially useful when schedules are full, energy is low, or support is needed in real time between appointments.
