Empowerment Begins Here: See How the Right Support Can Reshape Your Path!
Hello there! I am Janesta Nairn, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor (CPCS) based in Georgia. I earned my PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision at the University of Holy Cross, and my Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Walden University, both are CACREP-accredited universities. I have accumulated over a decade of experience in the field. I am a faith-driven professional who draws from various modalities to meet the unique needs of each individual with a person-centered foundation, prioritizing a safe, non-judgmental space to explore experiences and goals with empathy and understanding. My primary goal is to create a supportive and nurturing space to facilitate healing, encourage wellness, inspire personal growth, and survive trauma-related circumstances.
I am under consultation and pursuing my Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) credential for children ages 18 and below. Therefore, if you are a parent of a 16 to 18-year-old who has faced trauma, and both you and your child are willing to commit to at least 15 structured sessions, I strongly encourage you to reach out and schedule a consultation.

Macon, GA - Accepting clients in GA
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have been counseling clients dealing with a variety of mental, emotional, and relational issues for over 16 years. I have counseled adolescents, adults, families, couples and groups. I decided to pursue a doctorate in Marriage and Family Therapy because I realized the impact that our families, and society as well, have on our mental and emotional development. The impacts of these are both positive and negative and may manifest as depression, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, a lack of a sense of self and other mental and emotional disorders.
In counseling, I help clients explore those influences and the impact on their life. My specialties then center around helping clients gain insight into those influences, become more empowered, develop a stronger sense of self, and take steps to become who they really are; thereby addressing mental and emotional health issues.
It's important to note that many times, experiences unfortunately include trauma and loss. It may be childhood or other trauma. Identifying, acknowledging and processing trauma and loss is therefore often a part of the process of becoming more empowered and developing that strong sense of self described above.

The way we move through the world has a lot to do with who we are and who were evolving to be. Our experiences, often contribute to our decision making, more than we realize. When we live with unhealed trauma, our hurt often displays as anger, depression, and low confidence. I strongly believe that representation matters and equitable mental health is necessary. I advocate for accessible and equitable mental health for people of color and incorporate this into my practice.
I am a licensed mental health therapist and licensed school counselor. I received a Bachelors in Psychology and a Masters of Science in Counseling and Counselor Education. I have worked in inpatient and outpatient mental health, school counseling, school-based therapy, and private practice. I have over seven years of experience as a therapist and twelve years of experience in mental health.
In addition to working with adults, I also work with adolescents. Adolescent therapy is a specialty in itself, as it is much different than working with adults. With over seven years of experience working with children and adolescents, I incorporate my experience working in education and school-based therapy, for my clients.
You may have wondered why therapy often seems like it’s only meant for a specific demographic. I am here to ensure you that if you have been lost in the struggle, that beginning therapy may be exactly what you’ve been searching for. If you’ve been considering therapy and don’t know where to start, let’s work together to create what you envision for your life.

I am a clinical social worker who provides individual therapy for adults. Over the course of my 20 plus year career, I have worked in various settings with a variety of client populations. As a therapist my role is to provide a non-judgmental, safe environment for individuals to explore their life issues and support them in their personal growth. I find that a lot of us struggle with listening to our inner critic and often beat ourselves up for past regrets, as well as spending a lot of valuable time worrying about the past and the "what if's" in the future. I hope we can work together to quiet this critic and find a way to enjoy the present.

Dacula, GA - Accepting clients in GA
Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland. I am also a left leg above the knee amputee, so I know what it feels like to lose something. I use a non-authoritative approach, which allows you to take more of a lead in our sessions. Doing things this way leads you to working out solutions without realizing it. Sometimes it just depends on the work you put into your sessions. I am empathetic, compassionate and I listen without judgement in a safe environment. I will guide and assist you through the process of finding your happiness.

Dalton, GA - Accepting clients in GA
Hi! I'm a licensed therapist in Georgia. I knew I wanted to be a therapist when I was in the 3rd grade. I would wait at the swing set for my friends to come talk to me about their problems. As someone who was born into poverty and struggled with traumas of my own, I know how difficult life can be at times. Being there for others was something that took my mind off of the stressors of home. After becoming a teen mom, I knew I had to change my life for the better to support my family. I went to college to both heal myself and learn how to help and heal others. I am passionate about helping others meet their goals, feel happy, and have loving supportive relationships in their lives. I believe in practicing what I preach, so you know that if I'm asking you to try something then I've tried it myself and know it works. I believe that we all have the answers inside of us, I just help you find them.
