About Hiram

Hiram Faircloth is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Alabama who focuses on stress and anxiety. He aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can speak openly and be heard. Hiram invites straightforward conversation and practical steps rather than jargon-filled sessions.

He uses a blend of approaches to match what each person needs. That includes elements from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, person-centered work, mindfulness, and developmental counseling ideas. Sessions often include talking through daily patterns, trying small behavior changes, and practicing simple mindfulness skills.

Hiram earned a Master of Science in Counseling and Psychology from Troy University and an Education Specialist degree in Clinical Mental Health from Auburn University at Montgomery. He has seven years of experience and has worked in community mental health, a university counseling center, and an inpatient behavioral hospital.

He is an affirming counselor with additional training related to LGBTGEQIAP+ and sexual minority communities, including clients who participate in BDSM and related subcultures. He also helps people facing career questions, caregiver stress, family-of-origin concerns, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.

In sessions the emphasis is on practical tools and collaborative problem solving. Hiram helps people make sense of life changes, reduce anxious patterns, and build routines that fit daily life. To begin, he asks people to describe their main worries so therapy can focus on what matters most.

How evidence-based methods translate to online care

Hiram draws on cognitive behavioral ideas and mindfulness approaches that are straightforward to use in conversation or guided practice. Cognitive methods focus on noticing unhelpful thinking and testing small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and stress. Mindfulness work teaches simple attention and breathing practices to help with racing thoughts and difficult emotions.

He also incorporates person-centered principles that emphasize listening, empathy, and collaborating on goals. Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the work together; the therapist and client review what helps and adjust the plan over time so it matches the client's needs and preferences.

Confirm the current session formats before booking since specific online options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow clients to use quieter surroundings or shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people continue care during life changes while keeping focus on practical skills and steady progress.
