Hi! My name is Mindy Hall Czech, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I LOVE what I do, and I am always honored to walk with others on their journey through life. You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated.- Dr. Maya Angelou. Sometimes we need someone to walk with us through the hardships of life where anxiety, fear, anger, etc. have taken root and made their home. We need a place to vent and figure out how to re-train our brain- where anxiety, past traumas, etc. do not lead us anymore, but healthy thoughts, healthy ways of life, and building healthy behaviors do. Life is about growth and change, and about learning how to put away some pieces where they do not have a hold on us like they once have. True compassion means not only feeling another's pain but also being moved to help relieve it.- Daniel Goleman. Whatever you bring into therapy- pain, trauma, or the need for daily life maintenance - I am here to walk with you through it. I meet you where you are in life, and I provide integrated therapy specific to your needs. I work with a variety of individuals facing many different challenges. I provide a safe, judgment free space for people to open up about their struggles, pain, and to celebrate their triumphs as they work through things they need to sort out.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Atlanta, GA who works with adult individuals. I enjoy working with people of all backgrounds, identities and life experiences and am particularly passionate about supporting those who have been impacted by criminal legal systems. I frequently see clients for the following concerns: • Anxiety, Depression, and mood concerns • Relationship and communication challenges • Processing and coping with major transitions • Support for those in helping professions • Grief & loss • Self-esteem & body image concerns • Addiction recovery & support • Gender dysphoria and gender transition support • Trauma (acute, chronic, complex, and historical) • Trauma & grief specific to legal system involvement Building authentic, compassionate connections is central to my therapeutic approach. I will engage you as a partner in the therapeutic process, tapping into your unique strengths as we process your emotions and patterns together. I will apply a multitude of evidence-based practices during our sessions in order to provide a truly individualized and person-centered experience. Some modalities I frequently use include: CBT, DBT, Internal Family Systems, Narrative Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, trauma-informed care, and somatic therapy techniques. I am also in the process of obtaining EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy) and WPATH (World Professional Association for Transgender Health) certifications. Before working with clients privately, I practiced as a mental health clinician in jail and prison settings, as well as within court systems and a pre-arrest diversion program. I remain passionately involved in legal system reform and abolition work and feel that my responsibilities and ethical obligations as a social worker extend well beyond the therapeutic relationship, to also include such social justice policy advocacy and community organizing efforts. Due to their overrepresentation within legal systems, I have had the honor of working with many clients who identify as transgender or gender non-conforming. I welcome clientele of all genders, sexualities, races, ethnicities and religions, and remain committed to actively seeking out education and opportunities for growth concerning anti-racist and anti-oppressive therapeutic practices. I seek to maintain a practice in which people of all identities do not simply feel tolerated, but feel deeply understood, accepted, and nurtured.

Hi. I'm Marquita and I've been a social worker for 15 years and counting. I strive to help my clients navigate this challenging journey we know as life. Sometimes on this journey, we experience things such as anxiety, depression, life changes, set backs, and other bumps in the road, but what I've learned is that we can almost always navigate through or around them and keep on going. I use some conventional as well as unconventional techniques to work with my clients. I like to start where you are and not where I think you should be. We will use a mixture of cognitive behavioral, behavioral, mindfulness, and many other techniques to help us solve problems that we identify. I say "we", because we will do this together, but I allow you to drive. That just means I trust that you know yourself better than I do, but I will strive to help you find out just how strong you are and empower you to thrive in your life. We can do this together!

It is a journey, I look forward to joining you on your journey. Remember, you are not alone! Charles Zaglin M.S.,LPC

Hi there!– I am Ivette :) Are you going through a tough time and having difficulty finding your footing? Are you finding yourself preoccupied with your thoughts and wondering how you might make it day-to-day? Challenging feelings and difficulty coping can have many different causes such as loss of a loved one, marriage, job, pregnancy, unresolved trauma and so forth. Many times, compassionate processing and employing healthy coping strategies are needed to make sense of our feelings so we can move forward with healing. Healing is a very individual experience. Personal values, spiritual beliefs, cultural influences and family traditions are different. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can make sense of your situation and move forward with a new an healthy perspective. I look forward to working with you.

Hi- I’ve been a practicing therapist for 40 years, and in that time, I’ve seen and heard most everything. I was director of a local counseling center for 20 of those years. In 2016, I left that position and since then, I’ve been working primarily with clients who have a history of trauma. That’s pretty much everyone, right? We think of trauma as big events — combat, assaults, death. But trauma can be what others might consider small events. A heartbreak that happened in adolescence. Loss of a beloved pet as a child. Bullying. Family breakup. Hurtful words that still echo in our heart. I’m a certified addiction counselor and also trained in EMDR and Internal Family Systems therapy. These skills are frequently used in tandem to address the fallout from both old and recent traumas as well as addiction issues. I’m located in north Stockbridge, but do most everything on line now. If you would like to chat and see if we might be a fit, please call.

Hi. I received an MA in Psychology in 2007 from the University of West Georgia. I use a client-centered, humanistic approach focusing on aspects of Mindfulness, Existentialism, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, and trauma-related diagnoses as well as other life experiences. Like anyone I'm sure reading this, my learning and healing journey has been full of the unexpected. These changes have come in a variety of forms. Some I have savored, leaving me filled with a sense of wonder. Others have left me picking up the broken pieces, wondering in what possible form I might ever come back together in. I have been lucky, I think, to have the lens of Psychology to help me along the way. Along the way I will offer this lens to you.

Hi there, I'm Xavier Have you ever asked yourself why am I always stressed? Or how about, why do I feel all over the place emotionally?

Hello, I am a Licensed Practicing Counselor that works with children and adolescents. I have been proving therapy and guidance to children and adolescents that need additional support.

Hi, I'm Genobia. What's your story? My ideal client is someone who is willing to evaluate the story of their life so far, revise this current chapter, and to make a rough draft of the next chapter. Whether you are dealing with a life transition, anxiety, depression, burnout, or grief, this chapter can have a happier ending, if you are willing to work with me. For my entire life, I have loved to read and write. When I realized that there was a "story" inside of each person, waiting to be "read", I couldn't wait to become a therapist. My best attribute is my ability to work with and get connect with anyone, regardless of age, ethnic background, political leaning, or any other type of experience.

Hi, I'm Terry. Are you looking for some relief? Are there things happening in your life that you never imagined? They say over 80% of therapists and mental health workers have experienced their own mental health issues. With that being said, I have a history of anxiety and depression that I worked through gaining experience in coping skills and interventions. I have since gone back to school for my master's and doctoral degrees (working on licensure for doctorate). I have worked with individuals in the prison system, the state family and child ren departments, community care, crisis centers, and private practice. More recently, I am working with adult individuals with depression and anxiety due to the increase in these diagnoses since COVID-19. I am also doing testing for memory problems which has allowed me to meet wonderful older adults who are working on the acceptance of growing older. Some have medical issues, some have neurological issues, and most are suffering significantly due to these problems. When you have someone to talk to about life's unforeseen and unfortunate occurrences, the problems seem surmountable. I know because I see my own therapist :) I assign homework-not necessarily written! I encourage my clients to experiment with different interventions and coping skills to discover what works for them. It is exciting when we find something that works well, and we add it to our "toolbox." Come talk! Let's see what we can change....
