If you find yourself questioning your worth or feeling stuck due to past experiences of hurt, shame, rejection, or humiliation, I'm here to support you.

Life often presents us with opportunities to delve deeper into ourselves, and I am passionate about partnering with you during these transformative moments. I believe that you are the common denominator in your life, and when you initiate change within yourself, every area of your life will follow suit.
I invite you to leverage my expertise and embark on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment. Together, we can explore your past experiences, challenge self-limiting beliefs, and develop strategies for lasting change. Let's partner as you create the life you desire and deserve.

Are you feeling a little “off” lately? Down, anxious or unsure of what comes next in life? Or it could be you just don’t feel like yourself or maybe you are feeling stuck and you’re not sure why. You are not alone. To have a range of emotions means that you are human, but there is hope.
I provide a warm, accepting space for people to explore what matters to them and what’s getting in their way. I help clients learn to feel more comfortable with their emotions, experiment with different ways of relating to their thoughts and feelings, cultivate resilience, and develop the self-trust and self-compassion that will support them along their paths.
Therapy provides you with a place to work on and work out your concerns, to be heard and reflect, and to take some space for yourself. Together, we will explore the underlying reasons for your troubles, and what it might mean for you to “feel better” and begin to live a more productive, meaningful and engaged life.
I use an integrative approach consisting of cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy and mindfulness-based interventions to help you feel better.

Hello, I am Shaqueena. Are you tired of being tired? Do you feel that no one understands your situation or that no one can relate? Are you unsure if therapy is right for you?
If you are here, then that means that you are ready and motivated to make some changes in your life. Seeking help can sometimes be tough, which is why I believe that we all experience things in our life that goes beyond our ability to cope and when that happens we need a little more assistance.
As a licensed professional counselor, my ultimate goal is to first normalize seeking assistance by decreasing the stigma on mental health. In doing so, my goal is to assist individuals in their healing process, to empower individuals to become the best version of themselves and to help individuals to see that life is completely what you make it.
My preference for treatment is to utilize a trauma-informed approach in addition to CBT and Choice/Reality Therapy.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Georgia. My experience comes from providing direct mental health and behavioral counseling for teens and adults with a variety of presenting issues, including anxiety, relationship and family issues, trauma, community violence, gender identity, and depression. I approach the therapeutic relationship with an acute sensitivity and respect for multi/cross-cultural factors. My clinical experience includes working with a diverse population which includes race, youth, families, and adults given my firsthand experience in navigating generational and cultural differences. Representation for minority groups in the broader world of mental health is still very small, and my own professional goals include creating more intersection between my personal knowledge of western cultures and professional experience in providing mental health support. My experience is varied and across settings, as I have provided individual and family therapy in community mental health agencies, school settings and day treatment facilities. I believe that we are all products of our closest relationships, our environment, our family systems, and every moment that leads to the present us. I strive to treat the therapeutic relationship, and you, with compassion, respect, and warmth. My therapy style and approach draws influence from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Psychoeducation, and Structural systems. A top priority for me is to meet you where you are and calibrate treatment and my approach to what will work best for us as we work together to meet your goals. Whether you are working towards enlightenment and insight or symptom-relief and improved functions, my hope is that we can collaboratively work together to achieve it! It takes a lot of strength and will power to work towards a more fulfilling and happier life. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support you and empower you.

I decided to apply to the University of Georgia and sought a Master's degree in Social Work. I have been licensed for over 10+ years. I specialize in working with clients who struggle with healing from trauma, alcohol and substance abuse, depression and anxiety and adjusting to various stressful life situations. I believe that change happens when people are given the support they need to draw on their own strengths and realize their potential to live fulfilling, happy lives. I'm looking forward to working with you!

Hello, I'm Keith.
I have been working in the counseling field for about 20 years working with children, adolescents, and adults. I understand that it can be difficult to take that first step and seek help, but by working together, I am sure we can make this a positive and helpful relationship. I have experience working with a wide range of mental health issues, and seek to provide a safe environment for individuals to explore how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors impact their quality of life, as well as the lives of those around them. I meet my clients where they are and work with them toward reaching their goals.
My experience includes working with individuals who have suffered with abuse issues, self-esteem problems, ADHD/ impulse control, school issues, anxiety and depression, anger, as well as other mental health issues. I have worked with individuals of all ages 4- 65.

Appointments are available outside of 8-5 working hours starting as late as 7 pm! It takes courage to reach out for help when you struggle or feel stuck. As a therapist, I'm dedicated to creating a secure setting where my clients can express themselves and work through obstacles, adversity, and life changes. Therapy provides an opportunity for clients to question long-held beliefs that may no longer be beneficial to their present lives and make lasting change. In my practice, I work to create a non-judgmental and affirming environment where you can explore, process, and feel.

Hello I'm Kemyata.
Do you feel trapped in a cycle of negative and anxious thoughts? Are you struggling to stay present and "get out of your thoughts"? Is it difficult for you to extend yourself forgiveness and grace?
My goal is to promote good mental hygiene by teaching and empowering those whom I serve, to resolve past issues and traumas that impede one's ability to find peace in the authenticity of self. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I also integrate mindfulness and meditation to help you develop a stronger relationship with yourself.
Whether you're dealing with a low mood, loss of interest in things once enjoyed, feeling on the edge most of the time, or getting stuck in your thoughts I'm here to help. Feeling ambivalent about being vulnerable and addressing some things you've never uttered a word about to anyone may be difficult. However, you have made a transformative step towards your healing journey. I offer a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion ,evidence-based techniques, and psychoeducation to help overcome whatever struggles that keep you from the peace of living in authenticity. Let's walk together on this journey!

Hi there, I'm Jessyca.
Have you ever heard or created a dish called "Healthy soulful dish"? Well, to start ,you will need 4 cups of mindfulness, 3 teaspoons of hope , 2 ½ cups of creativity, 1 cup of positivity, a pinch of patience, and mix it well for connection. Once you place the dish in the oven set to a good temperature for you, and allow it to bake for 60-90 min. After the session of the dish is over, allow the dish to settle, and process all that was created within it. This is the recipe that will lead to all that we desire in ourselves. This is Mindful Culinary Therapy.
Mindful Culinary Therapy is dedicated to making the healing power of cooking safe and accessible. At MCT, I love empowering people to discover and harness their own creativity through food.
I help and specialize in working with children, teens, young adults, and families with communication, anxiety, depression, behavior management, and more! As much as I love to talk to individuals about how they are feeling, I am motivated and passionate about being interactive with clients when processing their thoughts and feelings. For many of us, it is hard to open up to strangers and express serious traumatic or even simple issues that we face daily, but what happens when we keep our minds busy, our hearts open., and stomachs full? Being able to express your thoughts and emotions in a more relaxed, creative, fun, and inspiring environment, gives a person more freedom to be able to become more vulnerable, comfortable, and at peace within themselves.
