Are you looking to improve your communication, strengthen your relationships, and manage conflicts more effectively? Interpersonal skills are the foundation of healthy and thriving relationships—both personal and professional. I am a personal development counselor, currently providing individual and group therapy for adults aged 18 and older. I specialize in personal development and focus on improving your interpersonal skills (communication skills, conflict resolution, anger management, setting boundaries, problem solving skills, etc.). These skills are key parts of your personal growth and development. Strong interpersonal skills allow you to communicate more effectively, resolve conflicts constructively, and build healthier, more fulfilling relationships. Whether at work, with family, or in social settings, these skills help you navigate challenges with greater ease, build trust, and foster deeper connections with others. When you change how you show up in your relationships by improving yourself, learning to listen actively, expressing yourself clearly, and managing your emotions, you’ll notice that your relationships become more balanced and stronger. This growth can also reduce stress, boost your confidence, and improve your overall emotional health. I am here to support you every step of the way in achieving healthier and more fulfilling connections. I am licensed in Georgia, and Maryland, schedule an appointment with me to start your wellness journey.

Hello, I am Melissa Jones, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia, offering telehealth counseling services to adults throughout the state. I specialize in supporting individuals who are experiencing stress, grief, and emotional overwhelm. My therapeutic approach is grounded in kindness, patience, and empathy. I believe in actively listening and truly understanding each client’s unique experiences and needs as we work collaboratively toward meaningful therapeutic goals. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with more accurate, balanced perspectives. I also integrate Grief Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to support healing from loss and distressing life experiences. Together, we focus on building coping skills, resilience, and emotional clarity to promote lasting growth and well-being.

Life is a journey and we all need to reach out for help at times.

I understand that life gets tough and sometimes we get stuck. I provide honest and genuine counseling with true compassion for my clients. I have lots of positive energy and love sharing practical tools and skills to really help clients reach their goals and empower them to move forward.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Georgia. I received my Master's degree in Social Work from New York University and have been practicing since 2004. I worked in a community mental health setting for 4 years, and after that I was employed at the Atlanta VA and worked with veterans for 16 years.

I consider it an honor and privilege to walk with my clients on the sacred grounds of growth and change.

Hello. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor currently based in Georgia. I have a Master of Science in Applied Psychology from Francis Marion University. I am a member of Psi Chi national honor society and the American Psychological Association. I have been practicing in public and private agencies for about 18 years. I help individuals discover their strengths and build the skills and supports they need to survive trauma, bad relationships and mental health challenges.

Welcome and thank you for considering Free The Mind as your next therapeutic support system. Seeking therapy can feel a little embarrassing, or maybe even frustrating, but you're making the right choice. Have you been struggling with grief or loss? Do you find it hard to stay happy this time of year? Did you survive a traumatic event and now feel like a completely different person? Well there's a group for that! I utilize group therapy and psycho-education to normalize the therapeutic experience when individual counseling can feel isolating. Group offers the client relatability and community. Witnessing the healing and growth of others can help you experience healing and growth of your own. If this is your first time seeking therapy, or you aren't quite comfortable with the group experience, individual therapy is available. Have you noticed increased anxious feelings? Let's practice grounding and systematic desensitization. Are you tired of feeling a certain way and just can't seem to get over things? Maybe we can try brainspotting. Have you survived a sexual assault or violation, and not sure how to move forward? Lets try EMDR. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I can also provide you with information for additional support services that can enhance your process. I'm here to help. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. Let's work together!

I work with adults navigating trauma, chronic illness, and major life stress. My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, and EMDR to create a space that’s supportive, collaborative, and tailored to your needs. We’ll focus on processing what’s heavy, building practical coping skills, and helping you feel more grounded, empowered, and able to move forward in your life with purpose.

Hello there, I am Willie. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work, and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I do help high performers manage and avoid burnout. Together, we can identify what’s not working and get you back to balance. We’ll use a whole self-help approach addressing the needs of your mind, body, and spirit. I also integrate mindfulness, self-compassion, and cognitive behavioral therapy, helping you to develop a stronger relationship with yourself. Whether you’re dealing with overwhelming relationship issues or cycles of anxiety. Depression and/ or psychoactive drug use: I’m here to help. 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 hang-ups and habits holding you back. Let us work together.

I am an LPC who is best positioned to serve children, adolescents, adults, and families who are experiencing emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges, particularly those involved in high-stress systems. I have extensive experience working with trauma-exposed youth, parenting stress, and complex family dynamics, I am well equipped to support clients who may feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or resistant to traditional therapy approaches. I am especially effective with individuals and families who benefit from structured, skills-based interventions combined with a strengths-focused and practical approach. My clinical style allows me to meet clients where they are, build trust quickly, and provide meaningful support that promotes stability, resilience, and lasting change.

Hi. I'm Christine. Over-stressed and demoralized these days? Are familiar activities and places that you've found soothing suddenly not offering relief from anxiety and depression? There is no failure or shame in revamping your coping skills, finding inspiration in new narratives, and challenging old beliefs that keep you from embracing the many versions (discovered and undiscovered) of you! Are you caught in the comparison trap? Spiraling in a bad algorithm? I will help you find meaningful connection, improve relationship skills, and teach emotional regulation strategies. Life transitions can be tricky too, and it can be helpful to talk though periods of loss and change. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a background in journalism, gardening, and photography. I am passionate about creating habitats for local wildlife and believe one's relationship with the natural world is impactful to their level of overall wellness. I enjoy tapping people into various modes of expression, and I'm drawn to helping people live their most authentic lives.

I help high-achieving women move from feeling overwhelmed and stuck to feeling calm, confident, and in control of their lives. Many of my clients are navigating divorce, breakups, or major life transitions and are ready to rebuild, not stay in confusion or dysfunction. They’ve already made the decision to leave unhealthy relationships and are now focused on healing, identity, peace, and purpose. You’re looking for more than just a space to talk. You want practical tools, emotional support, and a results-driven approach. In therapy, we create strategies to help you manage mild anxiety, stress, overwhelm, burnout, and adjustment-related challenges, while building self-trust, boundaries, and emotional independence. I understand these transitions on a personal level. I’ve walked through divorce, burnout, and seasons of carrying it all alone. Because of that, I offer a grounded, relatable approach where you can be vulnerable and honest while still being challenged to grow. If you’re ready to step into the next chapter of your life with clarity and confidence, I’d be honored to support you.

My specialties include but are not limited to, stress, anxiety, depression, marital and other relationship issues, veteran issues, teenage emotions, and behaviors, as well as parenting styles and issues. My style is non-confrontational and non-judgmental, allowing you to take therapy in the direction you choose.

We will then briefly discuss your reason for seeking therapy, as time allows. While I am not a Biblical scholar, I consider myself to be very spiritual and I will gladly offer my views and thoughts;, with respect to your issues, if you initiate that conversation. I have been a Christian since the age of nine.

My name is Michael and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Certified Chemical Dependency Counselor in Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina. As a psychotherapist, my vocation is supporting individuals, working together on your journey toward self-discovery, healing, and learning to thrive from the comfort and convenience of your home or office, and when it is most convenient for you. My work commonly addresses individuals experiencing difficulties in life due to problems stemming from difficulties early in life, anxiety, depression, major life changes, academic challenges (undergrad, graduate, post-graduate studies), the discomfort of feelings that go along with hypervigilance, procrastination, and perfectionism. Sometimes, we need help from someone new, experienced with developing collaborative relationships to find strengths we take for granted, and to embrace that we can be the person we’re meant to be. Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, substance abuse, or major life changes? Let’s talk! I do not prescribe medication, and I do not see clients under the age of 18.

Welcome! I’m Tamika of Life in Bloom. I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Wedding Officiant. I’m here to help you navigate life's stressful relationships. In our talks, I refer to those stressors as “thorns.” Why thorns, you ask? Great question! Because even the most beautiful roses have some uncomfortable pieces. That doesn’t make them any less beautiful, valuable, or appreciated. I have been commissioned to help couples, families, friends, and any other relationship dynamic find their communication style, boundaries, and build trust. It is truly my joy and my personal life’s work. Therapy isn’t what we have traditionally seen on television or in film. It is so much more than sitting on a big, comfy couch, sharing your innermost thoughts/feelings. Therapy is beautiful and transformative - and can take work. Don’t worry! I am here to help you every step of the way. Life and all the hats you wear from day to day can be challenging. I encourage and empower you to unlock the power you have inside of you. I promise you it’s there! I also help you reflect on how far you have come in order to celebrate your victories with you - big or small. Kudos to you for seeking help! You are in a safe space. I look forward to working with you and watching you bloom.
