Hi there! I'm a therapist who specializes in helping people overcome people-pleasing tendencies and trauma. You might be tired of constantly putting the needs of others before your own, feeling like you're never enough, or struggling to set healthy boundaries. It can be overwhelming to navigate these challenges on your own, but together, we can work towards building your self-esteem, creating space for your own needs, and developing new ways of communicating with others. If you've experienced trauma, it can be difficult to trust others and feel safe in your everyday life. You might be struggling with anxiety, depression, or other symptoms that make it hard to move forward. I want you to know that healing is possible, and you don't have to go through this alone. Using evidence-based therapies like Brainspotting and Internal Family Systems (IFS), I can help you process your experiences, reduce distressing symptoms, and move towards a more fulfilling life.

Hi, I’m Jaylin. I’m a counselor, a mother, a woman of faith, and a human being who has had her own share of late-night questions, heavy seasons, and quiet breakthroughs. I don’t sit with people from a distance—I sit with them because I’ve lived through the same storms that make life feel overwhelming, confusing, or just plain exhausting. I became a therapist long before I had the title. Life taught me how to hold space, how to listen beneath the surface, and how to walk with people through fear, grief, transition, and the deep ache of wanting more out of life and relationships. I know what it’s like to carry responsibility, to feel stretched thin, to question your purpose, to love deeply, and to rebuild yourself after seasons that shook everything. My approach is calm, real, and non-judgmental. I don’t believe in forcing you into a mold or talking over your experience. I believe in helping you reconnect with the wisdom, strength, and clarity that’s already inside you—because I’ve had to find my own, too. Healing isn’t about pretending things are fine; it’s about having a safe place to lay it all down and grow at your own pace. If you’re looking for a therapist who understands both the emotional and spiritual layers of this journey—and who can meet you with empathy, honesty, and a little bit of hard-earned insight—I’d love to walk with you. You don’t have to figure everything out alone. You’re allowed to be held while you find your way.

I assist clients who are healing from narcissistic abuse within intimate relationships and/or with family of origin. I partner with clients experiencing stress in relationships due to betrayal, infidelity, codependency, boundary issues and manipulation. I also work with clients in recovery from substance abuse and clients struggling to manage anger, anxiety, depression, work stress and life transitions.

My ideal client is ready to do the work, not because they have all the answers, but because they’re willing to be open, curious, and collaborative in this process. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns, but they also know something has to change. They’re not looking for quick fixes, they’re looking for honest insight, practical tools, and a space where they can better understand themselves. I help clients slow down and sort through the mental and emotional noise that comes with anxiety, depression, and feeling overwhelmed. My approach is grounded in helping you understand not just what you're feeling, but why. Together, we work to identify patterns, unpack the deeper roots of your struggles, and build practical tools for coping. Starting therapy can feel like a big step and it is. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for something to shift, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m here to help you make sense of what you’re carrying and support you as you move toward the changes you want to see.

Hello there, I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years experience in therapy serving many populations.

Ultimately, I feel a passion for helping others navigate their psychological challenges and it would be my pleasure to work with you.

I’m a proud, multi-hyphenated Black woman and one of my deepest joy's is walking alongside people as they grow their self-love, self-worth, and capacity to live authentically. I work with clients to unabashedly honor themselves, their stories, and their desires for the future. In our work together, I’m committed to decolonizing therapy—honoring the lived realities of people of color, using tools and language that affirm your identity, and creating a space where all parts of you are welcome as you grow into more of yourself.

Starting therapy can feel vulnerable — sometimes even scary — but choosing to begin is already a powerful act of courage. I’m honored you’re here. My name is Oronde Yero, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma — experiences that can feel overwhelming, isolating, or hard to put into words. My goal is to create a space where you don’t have to pretend, perform, or carry everything alone — a space where you feel safe, genuinely heard, and gradually empowered to understand yourself and move toward healing at your own pace.

When you are navigating life’s most difficult chapters—whether it’s relationship conflict, chronic stress, or unresolved trauma—you deserve support that goes beyond simply being heard. You deserve thoughtful guidance, practical tools, and a therapist who understands how to help you move forward. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over nine years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families in breaking patterns that keep them feeling stuck. My practice is grounded in strong clinical training and evidence-based care.

These credentials allow me to work effectively with complex emotional and relational challenges, including burnout, communication breakdowns, and difficulties with emotional regulation. I take pride in maintaining a diverse and inclusive practice. I have extensive experience working with clients from a wide range of backgrounds, including individuals and relationships within the LGBTQ+ community and those managing chronic health conditions such as HIV. I approach each client with cultural humility, respect, and an understanding that context matters. Fluent in English, French, and Haitian Creole, I strive to ensure that language and culture are never barriers to care. If you are seeking a therapist who balances compassion with clinical depth and clarity, I am ready to work with you.

My approach to counseling is rooted in the belief that trust is the most vital component of this shared journey. A safe, non-judgmental environment is offered where you can openly explore feelings, thoughts, and reactions to life's events. It is important that you feel comfortable and supported. I use CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and Solution-Focused Therapy to achieve results quickly.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Georgia rather than a city like Atlanta?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Georgia. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Georgia from Athens to Savannah! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Georgia.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
