Aetna Therapists in Georgia

Life in general can be challenging, Let me meet you where you are on your life's journey.. Many of us endure distress that has resulted in mental, emotional, and physical anguish. Did you know changing the way you think can influence how you feel and in turn how you behave and react to life challenges? Let me equip you with the tools necessary to challenge automatic thoughts and relieve tension caused by stress. My passion is to help people facilitate change by teaching a new way to “think” of challenges as we go about life. My goal is to help you relieve tension brought upon by everyday stressors, through the use of effective communication skills, boundary setting, and identifying core issues that lead to destructive behaviors.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with certification as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I have worked with various populations that include people living and affected by HIV, crisis, elderly and disabled, addictions, immigrants, and caregivers to people living with dementia.

Hi I am Kristie L. Griffin, LCSW, an eight-year, honorably discharged Army Active-Duty Veteran. I have over fifteen years of working directly with individuals who have experienced substance abuse, traumatic brain injury & chronic mental illness. I possess the knowledge, skills, abilities, and experience to provide comprehensive biopsychosocial assessments, mental health treatment plans, and counseling services to individuals, families, and groups. Most of my experience always included case management. My social work experience and training have equipped me to comply with many treatment protocols, perform advanced treatment care planning (Nursing Home Placements), and serve as a cohesive member of a multidisciplinary healthcare team. I am also experienced in assessing and responding to patients who are identified as high- risk and may have urgent or acute care needs. As a clinical social worker, I am responsible for educating (and connecting) clients to the available resources and interventions. Referrals are made beyond the scope of social work practice. Ethics and beneficence are primary for the Social Work Profession. I have a Bachelor’s and a Master’s Degree (Specialization: Military Families) in Social Work from Troy University. In addition, I have one and a half years left of qualitative research remaining toward a Doctoral Degree in Social Work (Clinical Expertise) from Walden University (Graduation Fall 2026). My doctoral training has prepared me to learn and adapt to various roles. My leadership training has allowed me to master/refine and define professional and technical knowledge of clinical theories, ethical principles/practices, and evidenced-based modalities/ treatment plans as clinically indicated for adults and children. I am dynamic because I can work well in any environment!

I was born and raised in Puerto Rico and 20 years ago I moved to Florida where I currently reside.

My name is Bill Massey and I am a licensed clinical social worker practicing in west central Georgia and east central Alabama. I graduated from the University of Georgia's MSW program in 1993 and became an LCSW in 1996. I have worked in home health and hospice for most of my career with a strong emphasis on geriatrics and dementia care. I have experience in inpatient psychiatric settings and residential services as well. I am looking to fill a niche that I have seen wanting attention for some time. For many years I have seen elders and their families in their homes but had to refer out any counseling other than crisis intervention to outpatient therapists. The problem is that I have been referring homebound people for outpatient therapy. This is not effective for many reasons. With the help of Grow Therapy, I intend to offer my services of counseling and case management to people in the comfort of their own homes. I will become a mobile mental health provider to serve a population that has gone largely underserved for all too long. My coverage area for in-home therapy will be Lee, Russell, and Chambers counties in Alabama as well as Muscogee, Chattahoochee, and Harris Counties in Georgia. I am opening up limited appointment times for virtual counseling as of mid May 2024.

I currently counsel teens, adults, and older adults with life transitions, career dysphoria, relationship difficulties, and anxiety. I offer compassion, empathy, and life experience. I ask questions, listen and offer skills training. I meet my clients where they are and do not formulate preconceived ideas or strategies to help my clients, rather, I seek to understand their view point, life experiences, and cultural influences into their therapy goals.

Mental illness is as real as any physical illness. We talk normally about cancer and diabetes, although the same should apply to mental illness. Emotional and mental health are just as important as the physical health of a human being. The emotional trauma that a brain endures in various of the human life cycle can be damaging and in the long run, just as detrimental as a psychical illness. People donate their organs, but they cannot donate their brains. Some people live with human-made hearts, but there is no such thing as human-made brains. I believe that our brain is the most important organ in our human body, so why don’t we start taking good care of it? Therapy is not only for people with mental illness. Therapy is for everyone. We all have faced or currently face some hardships in life. Talking to a therapist can help you deeply in improving your mental health, decrease your stress and live with more joy and intention!

Welcome and thanks for visiting my profile here at Grow! My name is Tiffany, and I am an original native of Memphis, Tennessee. However, I was raised in Stone Mountain/Lithonia, GA, and began my academic journey in Augusta, GA. In 2012, I completed my undergraduate training at Paine College, where I achieved my Bachelor of Science Degree in Biology with an emphasis in pre-professional studies. Seeking to understand more about human interaction and behavior, I developed an intense passion for mental health which led me to the obtainment of my Master of Science Degree in Applied Psychology with a special concentration in Behavioral Health from the University of Phoenix in 2016. As I grew to learn and understand more about the role and impact of significant relationships and systemic issues on individual mental health, I went on to pursue and obtain my second Master of Science Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy at Capella University in 2022. My career journey highlights extensive hands-on experience in nearly every realm of the practice of mental/behavioral health to include child & adolescent counseling, family, marriage, and couples counseling, as well as forensic and geriatric psychology, applied behavior analysis, international education coordination services, substance abuse treatment, case management, inpatient psychiatric/crisis intervention, and treatment servicing at-risk youth in secure facilities. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, listening to music, dancing, eating, and traveling.
