Hello, I'm Marquitta “M” Henry, the owner and founder of Spoken Minds Counseling & Consulting, LLC. With nearly a decade of experience in various therapeutic settings, I am a board-certified counselor dedicated to helping individuals thrive. My journey has taken me from volunteering as a grief counselor for children and adolescents at Alive Hospice to working in the drug and alcohol detox unit at Vanderbilt Psychiatric Hospital. These experiences have shaped my understanding of the importance of developing key coping skills to strengthen the mind daily in positive aspects. I believe that everyone has the potential to thrive, but societal and environmental factors often silence mental health, creating negative stigmas. My goal is to educate, support, and facilitate my clients' thoughts while building on their strengths and addressing their weaknesses. I focus on promoting mental wellness through cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy methods, providing educational resources when necessary. I specialize in helping clients with addiction, adolescent and teen mental/behavioral health, anger management, anxiety, depression, grief/bereavement, life transitions, multicultural/diversity issues, spirituality, and stress. I am here to support you on your journey to mental resilience via Grow Therapy Video Telehealth. Working with me means you'll find a safe, supportive environment where we can explore your thoughts and feelings together. I am committed to helping you build mental resilience and develop the coping skills you need to navigate life's challenges. Let's work together to promote the wellness of your mind and help you thrive. I look forward to the opportunity to support you on your journey. Feel free to reach out and take the first step towards a healthier, more resilient you.

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.

Hi- I’ve been a practicing therapist for 40 years, and in that time, I’ve seen and heard most everything. I was director of a local counseling center for 20 of those years. In 2016, I left that position and since then, I’ve been working primarily with clients who have a history of trauma. That’s pretty much everyone, right? We think of trauma as big events — combat, assaults, death. But trauma can be what others might consider small events. A heartbreak that happened in adolescence. Loss of a beloved pet as a child. Bullying. Family breakup. Hurtful words that still echo in our heart. I’m a certified addiction counselor and also trained in EMDR and Internal Family Systems therapy. These skills are frequently used in tandem to address the fallout from both old and recent traumas as well as addiction issues. I’m located in north Stockbridge, but do most everything on line now. If you would like to chat and see if we might be a fit, please call.

Dontay Williams is the Founder & CEO of Mental Health On Purpose Inc. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor for the state of GA and a doctoral candidate at Mercer University for Counseling Education and Supervision. His expertise includes Anger Management, Mood Disorders, Addiction Recovery, and topics of Spiritual Integration. I would like to first take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life.

I help you create space to focus on themselves, especially when life feels overwhelming or directionless. You may be balancing many roles while trying to manage stress, past experiences, and the pressure to keep moving forward. In therapy, I provide a supportive environment where you can pause, reflect, and begin to prioritize your own needs. My approach blends compassion with practical strategies, so sessions are not only a place to process but also a space to gain tools you can use in your daily life. Together, we’ll explore the patterns or challenges that keep you feeling stuck, and we’ll work toward realistic steps that bring more balance and clarity. My goal is for you to leave therapy with a stronger sense of yourself, strategies that make life feel manageable, and the confidence to move forward with intention. You don’t have to carry everything on your own, I’m here to walk alongside you.

Positive change is achievable when you have a supportive and understanding guide. Life can bring uncertainty, stress, and obstacles that feel overwhelming, and seeking help is often the first step toward clarity and growth. With 25 years of counseling experience, including several years as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I have helped adolescents and adults navigate challenges, build resilience, and create more fulfilling, balanced lives. In therapy, I work collaboratively with clients to address issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, stress, and relationship difficulties. Using a mix of evidence-based strategies, active listening, education, and practical skill-building, I help clients identify goals, overcome barriers, and take meaningful steps toward personal growth. I view mental health as deeply connected to every aspect of life, from relationships to work to self-esteem. When challenges arise whether in behavior, emotions, or interpersonal connections I aim to provide a space for reflection, healing, and empowerment. Seeking support can feel intimidating, but it is also a courageous step toward transformation. Every journey begins with a single step, let’s take it together.
