Where Hope Meets Direction

Solution-focused counseling that meets you where you are—and helps you get where you want to be.

Hello, I’m Jennifer Starling.

Born and raised in Mobile, Alabama, I’ve dedicated my life to building deep roots and meaningful relationships within our community. Guided by this passion, I founded Horizon Point Therapy Group to offer a space where individuals, couples, and families can find hope and healing.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative and focused, designed to empower you to reach your goals and live the life you envision. By embracing a systemic perspective, I strive to see the bigger picture—identifying underlying patterns and root causes of challenges—so that together, we can uncover effective and lasting solutions.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Alabama, I’m passionate about working with children, adolescents, couples, and families. My ultimate goal is to create a safe and supportive environment that honors the whole person—mind, body, soul, and spirit.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Graduate Certificate in Systemic Couple and Family Therapy, and I am a proud member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT).

I live in Fairhope, Alabama, with my husband, Dwayne, and our son, Dean. My ongoing commitment is to provide compassionate, evidence-based care that supports you, your relationships, and your family in achieving lasting growth and meaningful connection.
