Hello, I am Shari. Are you looking for someone you can feel safe to address your needs and not feel judged? Are you looking for someone authentic and supportive? Are you having difficulty finding someone who will be honest and direct? I work well with anyone who is motivated to start addressing their concerns right away. I believe finding the right therapist can be challenging, but it should not be a barrier to getting help. Finding a therapist should feel comfortable and natural. I am told I have a way of helping people feel as if they have known me before. I like to get an understanding of the source of your problem. Then together we explore how the source influences your thinking. People live life through their experiences which do not always serve us very well in today's time. I also believe in working from a holistic approach. Did you know our daily routines can prolong your recovery or cause mental instability? I have experienced being in a therapeutic relationship and believe in normalizing the need to get help in this way.

Life happens. In the most challenging moments, it helps to have a therapist who is prepared to help you navigate life's challenges with a holistic perspective. I have years of experience helping clients navigate difficult individual, nd couple pressures associated with communication, anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal conflict and grief. At its best, therapy explores the influence of one's mind (thoughts and emotions), body (physical responses) and spirit (sense of meaning and purpose). My approach to therapy is oriented toward the whole self. I journey with clients to discover healthier paths and meaningful life change. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia. I received dual masters degrees from Mercer University, a doctorate from Emory University and have been practicing for 16 years.

Well you have come to the right place. I believe in empowering my patients to be their very best no matter what circumstances they find themselve in each day. Low Self-Esteem, guilt, and depression are internal culprits that often suppress an individual externally. My Specialty is with teens and adult women who have been traumatized as a result of sexual abuse or violence. I believe that healing starts with removing the “band-aid” taking off the mask and breaking free from the past and moving forward . Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back.

I have over 16 years of experience in working in outpatient counseling settings and my private practice Catalyst Therapy. I’ve had the privilege of working with various populations with various mental problems. I’ve treated some with MDD, GAD, Bipolar, and PTSD. Treatment modalities used are DBT, CBT, Trauma informed therapy, and Christian Prayers of inner healing using Bible scriptures. My services includes family therapy, individual therapy, or group therapy. During the initial visit I will assist the individual to determine which services would be beneficial and the level of care. As a Non-denominational Christian Minister I have worked with various churches doing marriage counseling, leading teens/women mentoring groups, individual counseling using inner healing technique called SOZO that means Saved, Healed, and Delivered. Some other tooled used are the Prepare/Enrich Program, Gottman Institute couples communication, Emotionally Focused Technique, and Boundaries by Towsend and Cloud. I pray that you as you begin your emotional, physical, and spiritual journey to wholeness you find peace, joy, and a new life purpose/focus.

Welcome! My name is Natalie and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor. If you're new to therapy or have tried therapy in the past and want to begin again, I can help. I specialize in Somatic techniques as well as Internal Family Systems and Dialectal Behavior Therapy to help you process pain and change unhealthy patterns in your life. I also treat issues such as anxiety, depression, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline Personality Disorder, PTSD and OCD. My approach is holistic, which is the belief that our bodies and minds are deeply connected and work together which means they should be treated together to achieve true balance. This simply means that in our sessions we will focus on the mind and thoughts but also tune into and connect with our feelings and emotional body. Each therapy session and treatment plan should be as unique as you are, and together, we will work to get to the root of your symptoms and develop a plan to achieve true contentment and peace. This personalized and holistic approach helps you see your world through a more positive and balanced lens that promotes total wellbeing.

Jayne' Green is a Licensed Professional Counselor with a private practice based in Sandy Springs, GA. She works with couples, individuals and business leaders with a focus on leadership development, attachment styles and personality disorders. Many of her clients have found great success in their careers, but struggle to feel connected in their relationships or at peace in their daily lives. Jayne' is particularly sensitive to clients struggling in leadership roles and those facing the after-effects of unresolved trauma on their relationships. It is amazing to have dedicated time just for yourself to talk about you, or anything of your choosing, in a non-judgmental space. It is ok to be selfish in a way that allows you to explore, process and heal with support throughout your journey. Therapy may seem scary, but therapy with me is warm, enlightening and collaborative with a mix of a reasonable amount of challenge to help make changes where you feel they are needed. While therapy is a process, you have support throughout your journey to a path of a renewed life. Allow me to join you on your budding journey as you blossom and begin experiencing relief!

When you can change the way you think about issues, you are empowered to work to change life outcomes.
