Welcome! I'm Miki McPherson. Let's first take a moment to acknowledge that you've taken the first step towards feeling better and taking charge of your mental health because, I know firsthand, that starting or returning to therapy can be empowering, confusing, and scary all at the same time. I am a Licensed Therapist with a Master's Degree in Counseling Psychology and over 20 years of experience working with individuals, couples, and families struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, loss and grief, confidence and esteem issues, parenting challenges, relationship issues, school and career stress, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), attention-deficit disorder (ADD) and attention-deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD). My approach is warm, down-to-earth, and open-minded. I like to keep things real while helping you find relief from the symptoms you’re struggling with and discover practical ways to feel better and grow. Building a strong, trusting connection is at the heart of my work. When you feel safe, understood, and supported, that’s when real change starts to happen. My practice is collaborative and strength-based, working together to identify and draw on your inherent strengths, skills, and resources to facilitate growth and promote resilience in overcoming challenges to improve overall functioning and quality of life.

I am a compassionate, energetic, and optimistic therapist who believes that therapy should be a safe space where you can be your authentic self, without judgement. I bring warmth, humor, encouragement, and an empowering approach to every session. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and my role is to walk alongside you, help you recognize your strengths, and support you in creating meaningful change. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Science in Social Work, with more than 6 years of experience working in psychiatric settings and providing therapy. My clinical experience has allowed me to support individuals and families navigating a wide range of emotional and life challenges. I work with children and adolescents experiencing emotional, social, academic, and family challenges; individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and major life adjustments; and women experiencing stress, burnout, identity concerns and life transitions. I also provide caregiver support and work with families seeking healthier boundaries, stronger communication, and greater understanding of one another. I have a particular interest in supporting individuals navigating experiences related to teen pregnancy and the challenges that can accompany major life transitions.

I believe that healing and growth doesn't require perfection-it begins with curiosity. Therapy can be a place where you slow down, make sense of your experiences, and begin taking steps towards your best possible self. Having had a natural curiosity most of my life, I bring that aspect into my therapy work with clients. Don't worry, you will not be bombarded with 1001 questions, but a gentle form of interest, drives my work.

I have a strong passion for my profession and I advocate for all my clients while setting boundaries, actively listening to their concerns, and treating everyone fairly as it is my ethical duty to do so. I have changed many lives in my sessions while motivating and helping others find their true identity, purpose, and path.

You keep showing up fully in relationships, but rarely feel met in the same way. On the outside, you’re capable and composed. On the inside, you may feel anxious, unfulfilled, or quietly questioning yourself. You might overgive, take on emotional labor, or fall into familiar roles that no longer feel aligned. These experiences are often connected to anxiety, attachment patterns, or past relational wounds — and they can change. I’m Fatima, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Georgia. I work with high-functioning women who want to understand the emotional dynamics shaping their relationships and reconnect with a grounded, confident sense of self. Our work focuses on increasing clarity, strengthening boundaries, and supporting intentional choices that reflect your values.

Hi, I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and I’m passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges, develop healthier patterns, and create meaningful change. I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, understood, supported, and empowered to show up as your authentic self. My clinical experience includes working with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, emotional regulation, relationship challenges, life transitions, and other mental health concerns. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and individualized. I incorporate evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), while recognizing that each person’s experiences and needs are unique. I believe healing is not a linear process, and you don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. Whether you’re working through past experiences, feeling overwhelmed by the present, or simply wanting to better understand yourself, I’m here to help you navigate that journey. My goal is to create a therapeutic environment where you can feel safe exploring your experiences, recognizing your strengths, and building the tools necessary to move forward with confidence. You deserve a space where your story matters.

I am a licensed psychologist and I view therapy as a collaborative, structured process tailored to each patient's unique physiological, psychological, and situational needs. Every client's journey is unique — I start by listening carefully to your story and the specific challenges bringing you to therapy. From there, we work as a team to identify the sources of your stress and build practical strategies that empower you to thrive in your day-to-day life. Whether we draw on present-focused skills, learn to navigate tough emotions, or process deeper memories — we decide the best path forward together. Grounded in a comprehensive lifespan perspective, my goal is to foster long-term resilience, functional recovery, and health optimization through evidence-based practice.

I would love to work with you to help you through whatever you are experiencing. I believe anyone is capable of change. I like working with people who are experiencing that "stuck" feeling, that we all go through, at times. I believe that someone's thoughts have a great impact on how that person acts and feels. The more you think a thought, the more ingrained it becomes in your brain. These thoughts eventually form habits, which also includes emotional habits. I offer practical tools to help people change their habits in order to change their lives. My passion is helping people who experience anxiety, nervous system issues, as well as hormonal issues. I work with depression or low self-esteem. I work with stress management and developing coping skills. I use practical and experiential techniques such as relaxation and somatic exercises. I also offer Christian counseling. I also offer life coaching.

Hello, my name is Ricardo Guzman, LCSW. I identify as openly gay and was born in Honduras, but have also lived in Hong Kong, China; St. Paul, MN; and New York City. What inspired me to become a therapist were my own struggles with Coming-out of the closet, experiencing anxiety and depression, having my first heartbreak, as well as dealing with addiction (I am Sober), so I've been there myself. Therapy has helped me find healing in my own life and I know it can do the same to you. I will help you get back to self-love and acceptance.

I'm Robyn Richardson, and my passion for this work runs deep. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 20 years of experience, I've had the privilege of walking alongside children, teens, adults, and families through some of their toughest moments. My heart is especially with those healing from trauma—whether you're a survivor of abuse, navigating recovery, or working to break cycles of generational pain. I understand that, for many of my clients, privacy, discernment, and a truly bespoke experience are non-negotiable. My practice is intentionally designed to provide a discreet, elevated environment where you can be authentically yourself, away from outside pressures and expectations. I know that asking for help can feel vulnerable, especially if you've been let down before or spent years learning to manage on your own. But you deserve a space where you can finally exhale. A space where your story is held with care, your pain is taken seriously, and your capacity to heal is never in doubt.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
