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.

Are you feeling stuck, unworthy, unmotivated or hopeless?
You have goals and you try to move forward, because you know you have a lot to offer, but something always seems to get in the way of your career and your relationships.
You feel like you are never enough, like you don’t belong.
You wonder how things would be different if you were white, straight, able-bodied or cis-gendered. Every piece of self-help advice you read must be filtered through the lens of being marginalized and having less privilege. You wish someone could understand you.
You know logically how you “should” feel and you try to cope, but you find that you just can’t change by willpower alone.
It is not that you lack the willpower at all, it is something else. How you talk to yourself matters.
A few logistical things to mention. I'm not currently taking new clients, but will open up at some point in June. Please remain in communication with scheduling. If you book yourself, be aware that I may need to change the appointment to find a time if I'm not free. (Grow calender isn't always up to date with my other calenders.) Please complete any intake paperwork prior to your appointment.

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.

My name is Gabriel Trujillo. I am a husband, a father and a Licensed Professional Counselor.
I strive to use my expertise to create a comfortable and safe environment for you to address your concern.
I have been in the counseling field since 2011. In 2013 I graduated with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I became licensed in the state of Georgia in 2018.
I have worked in different settings providing mental health services including university campuses, community clinics, online platforms and church offices.
I am a CSAT (Certified Sex Addiction Therapist). CSATs are highly-trained trauma treatment specialists who help clients work through issues that untrained clinicians may leave unaddressed. CSATs understand the underlying wounds, experiences, patterns, and trauma that can lead to sexual addiction.
I also specialize in the treatment of depression and anxiety using the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy modality (CBT). I am Level 1 Certified in Gottman Sound Marital House. This is an evidenced-based modality for couples' work.
I believe counseling is a powerful process that changes the clinician and the individual both. Counseling compels us to take a hard look at reality and face the truth however tough and take one step toward our "ideal self." I like to listen and empower individuals to live their best life. I am also not afraid to gently confront and hold you accountable for your goals. Counseling themes I've worked with frequently include:
Marital Conflict
Sex Addiction
Depression
Anxiety
Trauma

I have worked with foster children and the families that care for them, I understand the challenges that it takes to care for these special children and the individual unique needs that each family has.

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!

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.

If you are looking for a highly experienced, seasoned, capable therapist who will help you feel more peace, happiness, satisfaction, and balance in your life, your work and your relationships you've landed on the right profile. You are not alone, and you've come to the right place.
Life presents tough challenges. Stress can often feel so overwhelming. When you feel overwhelmed by life changes or situations that feel too big or too tough to face on your own, finding the right counselor is important. It's important for you to feel comfortable with your therapist so you can openly share what's happening for you and your life. You probably want to know that therapy CAN help you feel better.
I've been providing professional counseling services for over 20 years, I am extensively trained in the psychology of personal growth, family, relationships, and brain-body science. When I am not providing clients with counseling sessions, I am either training therapists around the world or working on my writing projects. I am confident in my ability to support you in moving through the difficult challenges you are currently facing.
