About Savannah

Savannah Kizzie is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas and Alabama. She brings four years of clinical experience and aims to make therapy straightforward and approachable.

Background and approach

Savannah uses everyday language and practical steps to help people cope with stress, anxiety, and life changes. She values a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk about what matters to them.

Savannah draws on mindfulness and client-centered ideas to help clients notice patterns and build new habits. Sessions are meant to be a place to practice small changes that stack up over time.

Savannah includes cognitive behavioral techniques when clients need tools to manage thoughts and behaviors. She also uses solution-focused methods to set clear, achievable goals.

Those coming in with relationship or intimacy concerns may find her familiarity with the Gottman Method helpful as one part of therapy. Her background includes work with trauma, crisis, grief, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue.

Savannah also addresses issues such as ADHD, body image, codependency, attachment challenges, and divorce-related concerns. She aims to tailor strategies to each person's needs rather than use the same plan for everyone.

Sessions move at a practical pace. Savannah helps people break big problems into smaller steps.

She collaborates on goals and teaches skills people can use between meetings.

Approaches you can use online and why they help

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonds shape current relationships. It helps people identify patterns in how they connect and practice new ways of relating to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. The Gottman Method offers structured ways to improve communication and manage conflict, which can be useful for clients concerned about relationship or intimacy issues.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Savannah treats the selection as a collaboration and adjusts methods to fit a client's goals, needs, and comfort level. Together they try strategies, review what helps, and change course if something does not fit.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people talk face to face and read body language. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging allow quick check-ins, brief coaching, and ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to keep momentum and practice new skills in everyday life.
