I provide a supportive, direct, and nonjudgmental space where clients can explore what’s keeping them stuck and learn how to respond to life with more clarity and confidence. Much of my work focuses on relationships, anxiety, emotional regulation, and major life transitions. I help clients understand their thoughts and emotional patterns without shaming them for having those experiences in the first place. My approach isn’t about “fixing” you...it’s about helping you better understand yourself, build healthier habits, and feel more grounded in your choices. I value honesty, warmth, and collaboration in therapy. You’re the expert on your life; my role is to help you connect the dots, challenge patterns that no longer serve you, and develop tools that actually work in real life.

Feeling disconnected from yourself or the life you’re living? I support clients seeking deeper self-understanding and liberation from patterns and identities that no longer serve them. In a compassionate, collaborative, and affirming space, we explore healing and empower you to create a life that feels aligned, authentic, intentional, and alive. I prioritize communication that is open and self-expressive. I listen deeply, mirroring what I hear while offering feedback that supports insight and growth. I foster a safe space where you’re encouraged to share and reflect without judgment. Sessions are a space where you don’t have to filter yourself—your voice and lived experience are welcome. What matters most to you shapes our work. Together, we define your aspirations and work to manifest them into your lived reality. I help translate inner vision into tangible goals by revisiting them as insight, needs, and capacity shift. Our focus is on fostering and integrating change into daily life, so transformation is purposeful and embodied.

Taking the first step to seek out therapy is courageous and at times, we do not take a moment to recognize the brave steps that we take day by day. I want my clients to feel empowered and I work hard to help my clients harness their inner strengths and also ways to build their support systems. I believe that therapy is not a one size fits all approach because of this, I make sure to get to know my clients as individuals by taking a deeper look into family background, current relational influences and stressors. It allows me to get a bigger picture of how small changes can help impact larger systems.

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 am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Certified Life Coach and I've been in practice for 16 years. Seeking therapy takes courage and personal growth begins when one is willing to take the first step towards change. Do you avoid conflict with others? Do you struggle to set boundaries with others? Do you experience manipulation and gaslighting in your relationships and wonder what is going on? It's not you. 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. I meet clients where they are on their journeys and partner with them to solve their problems and move forward. If you're here, you've already taken the first step.

I like to start by creating a calm, grounded space where you can take a breath and settle in. I’ll introduce myself as someone who values clarity, collaboration, and respect. My approach is client‑centered, trauma‑informed, and grounded in evidence‑based practices. I use psychoeducation to help you understand what’s happening internally—emotionally, mentally, and physiologically—so you can make sense of your experiences rather than feeling overwhelmed by them. For EAP clients, I also integrate brief, solution‑focused strategies that address workplace stress, burnout, conflict, and life transitions. Therapy with me is a partnership where you have a voice, a choice, and a clear understanding of the tools we’re using.

My work is grounded in attachment, emotional awareness, and systems thinking. I help clients explore how stress, past experiences, and relational dynamics continue to influence their present lives. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we work to understand and confront the emotional and relational patterns at the root of distress. I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), trauma-informed care, and relational approaches to guide meaningful change. Therapy with me is collaborative, structured, and intentional. My goal is to help clients move from survival mode to emotional clarity, stronger communication, and more secure connection. While my primary focus is adults and couples, I also work with teenagers navigating anxiety, family stress, and life transitions.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am passionate about helping individuals thrive and I believe that everyone is capable of doing amazing things when given the right opportunities and environment to succeed. I have found joy in helping individuals become healthier versions of themselves. I have worked within specialized high acuity programs and within traditional outpatient settings, so no matter the setting or the level of care needed, I can be adaptable and dynamic enough to handle challenges with great empathy and understanding. I believe in looking at an individual's whole health - their mind, body, and spirit, as they are interconnected, in order to create balance. I utilize a strengths-based approach to empower individuals while helping them to build their hope and resiliency. I have extensive experience working with individuals struggling with mood disorders such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder etc., individuals who have experienced trauma, individuals struggling with navigating relationships and individuals needing support through different life transitions.

Hello, and welcome. I’m so glad you’re here. I look forward to working with you and your family. I believe communication—even when it is limited to a single word or gesture—is the foundation of all relationships. In fact, research shows that much of our communication is nonverbal. My goal is to help individuals and families understand their relational patterns, navigate conflict more effectively, and become more congruent and intentional communicators. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, substance use concerns and relapse prevention, grief and trauma, and bipolar disorders. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in helping clients feel safe, understood, and empowered as they move through life’s challenges. Additionally, I specialize in autism-related family dynamics, caregiver burnout, and identity transitions. I am the author of Dear Single Mother: A Journal of Autism, Isolation, and Self-Discovery, a reflective work that explores resilience and meaning-making through lived experience. While my writing reflects personal insight, my clinical work is rooted in systemic, trauma-informed care that honors both evidence-based practice and each client's unique experiences in the therapy room.

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.
