Hi, I’m Brandi Eiland, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I help individuals work through anxiety, stress, relationship struggles, and life’s “what now?” moments. My style is honest, down to earth, and sprinkled with humor because sometimes healing starts with realizing you’re not the only one holding it together with coffee, sarcasm, and a to-do list you keep ignoring. Therapy with me is a space to be real, laugh when it helps, and build practical tools to handle life without feeling like it’s handling you.

My name is Samantha Sims, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with extensive experience serving adults and older adults. I’ve spent my entire career in Mental Health, working in a variety of roles that have shaped my ability to provide empathetic, patient‑centered care. I am certified in CBT for Depression, a credential I earned while serving at the Birmingham VA Medical Center, where I supported veterans in several clinical positions. I also have training in Motivational Interviewing and Solution‑Focused Brief Therapy. Throughout my work in Mental Health, I’ve supported individuals living with severe mental illness—including Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder—as well as veterans navigating PTSD, Anxiety, and Depression. I’ve also worked with individuals and couples facing major life transitions or communication challenges that make it difficult to stay connected to the people they love. For older adults, my work has included helping seniors manage the emotional impact of life changes, cope with depression or anxiety, and find practical strategies to address cognitive decline—such as memory loss—while maintaining independence and dignity. No matter where your experiences fit within what I’ve described, you can trust that with Inner Truth Clinical Services, I will meet you exactly where you are. Together, we will focus on what matters most to you and work toward a life that feels more manageable, grounded, and meaningful.

I specialize in working with clients who are motived, courageous, and open to exploring their inner world. My goal is to help others achieve their goals. As a licensed clinical social worker, I offer a warm, grounded, and collaborative space where clients can slow down, reflect, and better understand themselves. My approach is person centered and trauma-informed, with a strong foundation in cognitive behavioral and strengths based therapies. Even if clients are not quite sure what that looks like. I help clients by navigating anxiety, relationship struggles, or life transitions. Most people are overwhelmed by pressure. What they tend to want most is clarity, peace, and to feel more connected. They're seeking safe, nonjudgmental space where they can explore their thoughts freely and begin to moe toward a life that feels more aligned and intentional.

Holding space is the practice of providing a safe and supportive environment for someone to express their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment or interruption. It involves being fully present and attentive, allowing the other person to explore their feelings and navigate their own process. My 20 years of experience have allowed for a diverse background of traditions and practices that clients can implement in their personal journey. I value transparency in the therapist/client relationship.

**Who I Am** I believe meaningful change happens when people feel safe enough to be honest about where they are while also feeling supported enough to move toward where they want to be. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and understood without judgment. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, life transitions, relationship concerns, stress, self-esteem challenges, and emotional overwhelm. While I often work with individuals, my training as an LMFT means I naturally view people through a relational lens, recognizing how family experiences, important relationships, and life circumstances shape who we are and how we cope. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and therapy is a partnership. Together, we'll identify what's keeping you stuck, build on your existing strengths, and develop realistic strategies that fit your life. I draw from evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Collaborative Therapy, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness-based interventions when appropriate. I don't believe therapy is about having all the answers or telling you what to do. Instead, I work alongside you to better understand your experiences, recognize unhelpful patterns, develop healthier coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change. Whether you're navigating a difficult season, healing from past experiences, or simply trying to become the version of yourself you want to be, you don't have to do it alone. My hope is that every client leaves therapy feeling more confident, more resilient, and better equipped to face life's challenges with practical tools and a deeper understanding of themselves.

I'm Malanne, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and founder of SlateCole Counseling and Consultation. I work with high-functioning women, couples, caregivers, and fellow helping professionals; the people who keep everyone else's world running while quietly running on empty themselves. My path into this work wasn't purely academic. Before opening my own practice, I spent years in child welfare, foster care, residential treatment, and school-based mental health, settings that taught me how much people can carry while still showing up, still functioning, still holding it together for everyone watching. I've also walked my own path as a wife, mother, entrepreneur, and cancer survivor, and I know firsthand what it means to keep caring for others while learning to care for yourself too. I bring that lived understanding into the room alongside my clinical training. I'm the author of 31 Days to a Merry Modern Marriage; and relational healing, whether within a marriage, a family, or a friendship with yourself, is at the center of how I practice. In session, I'm warm, direct, and practical. I don't believe therapy should feel clinical or distant, and I don't believe you have to hit a breaking point to deserve support. My approach draws on CBT, ACT, and trauma-informed care, but the real work is helping you feel less alone in what you're carrying, and giving you real tools to carry it differently, or set some of it down.

The most challenging part of therapy is believing it will make a difference. The best way to overcome that hurdle is to see successful outcomes. Clinical experience has taught me that if you are willing to do the work, you will see results. Using the appropriate interventions, combined with mutual openness, respect and trust will enable you to overcome obstacles and achieve goals you didn't believe possible.

My name is Jennifer Bailey, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Registered Drama Therapist. I help clients identify and pursue the goals that lead to a life filled with meaning, pride, and contentment. Now, you may be wondering: “What exactly is a Registered Drama Therapist (RDT)?” Simply put, it means I integrate elements of theater and creative expression into the therapeutic process. With me, you have options. You might choose a traditional talk-therapy session to explore your thoughts, emotions, and goals. Or, if words don’t feel like enough, you might try something more experiential—writing, movement, role-play, or even reimagining and practicing conversations that keep replaying in your mind. Talk therapy is a powerful tool for growth, but sometimes it takes more than words to truly process what’s happening inside. That’s where creativity can open new doors. Whether through conversation, movement, sound, or artistic expression, I provide a space where you can choose what feels most healing and helpful. I would be honored to support you—whether that’s working toward personal goals, processing difficult emotions, or making positive and lasting changes in your life.

I founded Chaos Therapy around a simple but radical idea: life is chaotic, the goal isn't to eliminate the chaos from our existence but to find order within it. My approach is integrative and intentionally anarchistic; there's no rigid script or one-size-fits most protocol. Our sessions are collaborative, adaptive, and real. I'm not your typical therapist, and that's by design. With over 20 years in social services, I've worked alongside people in some of the most demanding, complex, and often overlooked corners of human experience, in-patient and in-home therapy, homeless outreach, academic research, and private practice. That breadth isn't just my resume, it's shaped how I think about healing. If you've been told you're too much, too complicated, too sensitive, too far gone, then you are exactly who I built my practice for.

I offer online counseling to help adults recover from childhood wounds. These issues can present as depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem and interpersonal challenges. I approach counseling as an opportunity to understand your story and help you develop a path to healing. It's human nature to want healthy relationships, meaningful work and activities you enjoy, to have a good quality of life. If you're experiencing ineffective communication skills, career dissatisfaction, parenting challenges, family/relationship stress or feelings overwhelm, I would be glad to help you improve upon these problems. I see clients who live in Georgia and Alababma. I utilize the following models of treatment depending on the needs of each individual: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy and Mindfulness Interventions. I studied psychology at the University of Georgia, obtaining a B.A. in psychology in 1998. Later in my career, I obtained a Master of Social Work from Valdosta State University in 2011. I became fully licensed in 2015. I understand that life can throw you. some curve balls. My desire to help others improve their quality of life led to a career spanning twenty years.

I am a compassionate and client-centered therapist who is dedicated to helping individuals navigate challenges related to depression, anxiety, and trauma. My approach to therapy is collaborative, supportive, and grounded in evidence-based practices that empower clients to better understand their experiences, build resilience, and create meaningful change in their lives. I integrate several therapeutic modalities in my work, including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and mindfulness-based approaches. Through these methods, I help clients identify and challenge unhelpful or “stuck” beliefs related to past experiences, strengthen personal motivation for growth, and develop greater awareness of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in the present moment. My goal is to create a safe, respectful, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel heard and supported as they explore difficult emotions and experiences. Together, we work to develop practical coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and cultivate healthier perspectives that support long-term well-being. I particularly enjoy working with individuals who are navigating trauma, stress, life transitions, and mood or anxiety-related concerns. Whether you are seeking to process past experiences, manage overwhelming emotions, or build new coping strategies, therapy can be a powerful step toward healing and personal growth.
