About Hiram
Hiram Faircloth is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage anxiety, stress, depression, career questions, and life transitions. He presents himself as an affirming counselor and offers a calm space where clients can speak openly and feel respected. He uses a practical mix of therapy methods drawn from developmental counseling ideas, cognitive behavioral techniques, person-centered work, and mindfulness.
Sessions focus on making sense of current problems, building coping skills, and trying small changes that add up over time.
Background and approach
Hiram aims to keep conversations straightforward and useful rather than full of jargon. Hiram completed graduate training at Troy University with a Master of Science in Counseling and Psychology, and he holds an Educational Specialist degree in Clinical Mental Health from Auburn University at Montgomery.
He has seven years of experience working in community mental health, a university counseling center, and an inpatient behavioral hospital. He is experienced supporting people in the LGBTGEQIAP+ and sexual minority communities, including those involved with BDSM and kink cultures. Hiram also addresses issues such as caregiver stress, blended family concerns, fatherhood issues, aging and geriatric topics, and men's concerns.
In sessions he emphasizes collaboration and practical tools. Clients can expect to talk through patterns, try concrete skills between sessions, and work toward clearer goals. When someone is ready to begin, he asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time to start.
Online approaches that meet you where you are
Hiram uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify unhelpful thought patterns and try small behavior changes; this approach is useful for anxiety and depression. He also draws on mindfulness-based practices that teach attention and breathing exercises to reduce overwhelm and improve focus. Person-centered methods are woven in so sessions remain respectful and driven by what the client finds most important.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. He will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust as needed. The plan grows from real conversations, not a one-size-fits-all checklist.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging gives practical options for different needs. Video works well when visual contact helps the work. Phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text are useful for brief exchanges, follow-up, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity between sessions.
