Hi, my name is Dr. Felicia Wilson. I am an licensed clinical social worker based in Georgia. Let’s face it, sometimes life can be overwhelming. For the past twenty-four years, I have worked with adults, seniors and families in a variety of settings including, home care, home health, nursing homes, private practice, and community-based practice.

My name is Jennifer Harelson and I graduated from Louisiana State University and became licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor in 2004. I have experience working in psychiatric hospitals, behavioral intervention programs and on school and college campuses. I love working with children and young adults, helping them and their families to manage and understand some of the difficult disabilities they may be striving to overcome. I use play therapy as an important therapeutic tool for young children, as they are often able to engage and process their emotions and situations in a more beneficial way through play. Many behavioral and emotional issues are related to depression and anxiety, as well as many problems people have functioning daily. Working together on ways to decrease these symptoms, such as clients providing better self care skills, building strong coping skills and having improved perspectives is essential to a healthier well being. My role as your therapist is that through the supportive and close therapeutic relationship, you will gain insight and motivation to work toward change.

I’ve had the honor of serving people from all walks of life in my career since 2005, which first began as I initiated and operated a non-profit program for juveniles in my small town. It was funded by grants and donations, and I learned a lot about rural communities, human services, referral sources, and limited resources. I gained a passion for helping others and decided to pursue my degree to continue to help others. After receiving my Master’s degree in 2011, I began offering therapy to those in my community, always keeping in mind the heart of collaboration as well as working to help people make real change in their lives. I have learned some tremendous things about the necessity for validation, which is a theme that resonates in my work. Your thoughts and feelings matter. Taking the time to explore and validate them is a part of the healing journey and I am honored to be here with you during this time.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over seven years of experience in mental health, I provide a safe, open, warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space for you to heal, identify problem areas, process unresolved issues, and develop a new perspective/effective skills to allow you to cope with life stressors. My practice is exclusively virtual, making mental health treatment more convenient and accessible while providing morning appointments. I look forward to working on healing with you!

Meaningful change can take place once we are able to acknowledge that change is needed. In my profession as a therapist, my goal is to help others achieve change, growth, and improved mental health in their lives. It was during my own therapeutic experience many years ago where I learned the value of the journey to change and mental wellness. I would later decide to become an agent of change for others when I obtained my master’s in social work. My passion is working with women to help them effectively manage their mental health. As a woman I understand the challenges with having several roles and the expectation of being perfect in each role.

I always knew that I wanted to be a helping professional. As part of an assignment, while taking a counseling course designed to assist offenders with substance abuse problems, I had to write in five words or less what I wanted people to remember about me. My words were “helped people live better lives.” I have over 30 years of experience working with clients who live with psychiatric and substance use disorders. I started my "helping" career working for the Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC). After observing the effects of early childhood trauma on many of the offenders that I supervised, I decided to end my 21-year career with GDC and pursue an education in counseling. I have never regretted this decision! For the last 6 years I have provided psychotherapy for individuals and groups. I love doing what I believe I have been called to do and my life's work remains guided by those five simple words in my title. I look forward to helping you learn to live a better life!

Hi there, I'm Dr Myers. Do you feel pulled like life is moving faster than you can think or breathe? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work, and responsibilities?

Whether you're dealing with overwhelm, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Sometimes in life, we are faced with challenges that we need help to overcome and that is okay. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and take the first step toward change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. Let's start your journey toward a Happier and Mentally Healthier version of yourself!

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.
