Hi, I’m Shannon, and I’m here to help women feel more like themselves again! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over seven years of experience working with young adults. I specialize in anxiety and OCD, using the gold standard approach for treatment, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). My approach is all about getting to the root of what’s keeping you stuck so you can experience lasting relief, not just short-term fixes. We work together to identify how anxiety deeply affects your relationships, daily life, and the thought patterns that shape your mood and behavior.
As a certified Mental Health & Nutrition Clinical Specialist, I take a whole-person approach—looking at how your daily habits, stress levels, and physical health all impact your emotional well-being.

I am a Certified Advance Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor through the ADACBGA. I am certified to provide several group therapies, such as Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT), Seeking Safety, Trauma Recovery and Empowerment Model (TREM) for both men and women, and SMART Recovery, as well as extensive
My approach is supportive, empathetic, and, above all, pragmatic. While understanding the past is essential, change can only occur in the present. I will challenge you to be an active partner in therapy and to work toward ongoing insight, growth, and positive change both in and outside of sessions.
As a co-occurring disorder therapist, I have heard so many times, You cannot understand it if you have never lived it, I have lived it in both my personal and professional life. This means I can be more than compassionate; I can be empathetic because I have worked through and lived so many of the experiences my clients struggle with.
Hello, Im TeNille. I bring 7 years of experience as a social worker into the space. My specialty areas are depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder. I enjoy working with clients ages 18-55. I have a particular interest in working with students both college age and non- traditional. I also value walking along side clients and assisting them in creating boundaries and prioritizing themselves.
My passion lies in supporting individuals on their emotional health journey and creating a safe space for healing and self-discovery. I believe in a holistic approach to therapy, addressing all aspects of a person's being - the good, the bad, the ups, the downs. By focusing on the mental, physical, and spiritual aspects of an individual, I aim to help clients embrace all parts of themselves as they heal and grow. My goal is to empower individuals to confidently present their true selves to the world and live their desired lives.
I have been working as a social worker since 2010, and I have been in private practice since 2020. I use CBT, DBT, EPR, Mindfulness and creative expression as treatment modalities, and we will closely collaborate on therapy goals and how to meet each objective. I have extensive experience working with children and teens, and I am also fully equipped to work with all ages. I specialize in anxiety and OCD, and I work with many clients diagnosed with depression and bipolar disorder as well. I believe therapy is a deeply personal journey, and my role in the process of change brings me immense pride.

Welcome to Authentically Me Therapeutic Services, LLC.
Congratulations on prioritizing your mental health! This step has the potential to greatly improve your life and the lives of those that you love. I am so excited about the new version of you.
Good day! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in the state of Georgia. I received my Masters from Western New Mexico University and have practiced for 9 years. My practice has a client-centered-approach where I seek to learn about who you are and what is important to your happiness. It could be that your potential is being burdened by messages you internalized in your childhood. Or you may experience difficulty with setting healthy boundaries that keep yourself and others safe. You are only a few sessions away from seeing yourself and understanding yourself in ways that you had not before. The investment that you make in you today is going to shape a better you tomorrow.
You've made an important decision to start therapy. I'm glad you're here. It has been said therapy with me is like talking to your "auntie". I will help you see yourself but in such a nurturing way you receive it, and it allows you to do your work.
My gifting is in assessment and working with adults and couples. I have always worked in some form of mental health assessment in my career. Most recently I spent 5 years in Grady’s Psychiatric ER. Allowing me to quickly assess needs and develop a life plan with the client.
Couple work is also a skilled area for me. Especially when communication has broken down evidenced by constant arguing. Therapy can break couples out of the destructive tit-for-tat cycle. Broken trust, infidelity and unforgiveness are also areas I specialize in.
Women’s concerns and issues are important to me. I’ve done extensive work in healing their “father wound”. Tapping the spiritual relationship for healing. Topics include relationships, self development and growth. Another very successful service is my therapeutic walkthrough of popular books. Titles have included RC Blakes’ Queenology and Sophia Nelson’s The Woman Code. Currently, I am authoring The Majestic Woman Mindset, which comes from a woman’s empowerment curriculum I developed.
TALK|THERAPY LIVE, is a podcast on my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmxgzmGXbnqKKizcNu32WuA
of educational videos and live broadcasts addressing behavioral health and relationships. Sometimes with special guests. I have been a helper/healer my entire career and looking forward to this season working with those I can help the most.
So whether it’s life just happening, grief, a relationship starting or ending, relationship issues and specifically if there are struggles with depression, anxiety, or a disorder, REACH OUT…Success in life is about making good decisions. Starting therapy is always a great decision!!
Welcome! I'm Merceline.
Thank you for taking the important first step toward prioritizing your mental health. Beginning therapy can be a transformative experience, though it often can feel scary and confusing at first.

My therapeutic approach is based on a strength-based perspective, focusing on nurturing a positive mindset. Together, we will harness and enhance your unique qualities and internal resources to help you achieve the quality of life you desire.
If you’re ready to move past negative patterns and conflicts and wish to embark on a journey toward the life you deserve, please contact me today. Let's work together to reach your goals!

I enjoy helping people explore their own goals, perspectives, and providing them with a safe, supportive, and confidential space to become their personal best.

Greetings! My name's Bertrona Freeman and I am a compassionate and practical therapist who supports adults navigating substance use concerns, anger, grief, trauma, emotional regulation, relationships stress, and major life transitions. My approach is grounded in helping clients feel heard, understood, and empowered while also encouraging accountability, self-awareness, and meaningful change. I enjoy working with individuals who are ready to better understand their patterns, strengthen coping skills, improve decision-making, and build healthier relationships with themselves and others. I have experience engaging clients individually and in group settings, using psychoeducation, skill-building, and relatable discussions to help clients connect what they learn in therapy to real-life situations. I believe therapy should be both supportive and useful, offering clients a safe space to process painful experiences while also developing tools they can apply outside of session. Whether a client is working through grief, managing triggers, addressing aggressive behaviors, rebuilding after substance use, or learning to become more emotionally present in relationships, I strive to meet them with empathy, honesty, and respect. My goal is to help clients gain insight, increase emotional awareness, and create lasting changes that support healing, stability, and personal growth.
Hey yall! I am Eveny Walker, a licensed Marriage and Family therapist, however most people call me Ev. I like to refer to myself as the "healing therapist". Not because I am proclaiming to be a healer, but because I am healing just as you are! Life happens. We all need a safe space to process the craziness life throws at us and assistance with managing those unpredictable emotions. Like many of you, life has thrown me some curveballs: divorce, grief, identity crisis. And like you, I am making the daily choice to heal. The daily choice of finding joy beyond the noise of life. I would love the opportunity to stand by you in achieving your healing journey.

Hi! I'm Malika. I am a licensed clinical social worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work from The University of Georgia. With experience in hospitals, hospice, and behavioral health, I believe true wellness includes mental, physical, and spiritual wholeness.

Hello! I’m Stacey Smith, a licensed Clinical Social Worker with 12 years of experience helping individuals navigate life’s challenges.
Are you struggling with depression, anxiety, obsessive thoughts or recurrent thoughts of past trauma? Whether you’re dealing with any of these issues, or just need someone to talk to, I’m here to support you on your journey toward healing and personal growth. My approach to therapy is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based practices.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in the state of Georgia with over 20 years of experience working with individuals, teens, and families. I have worked with clients on a wide range of issues.
I started my career working in child welfare where I worked alongside parents to help them become the best versions of themselves as individuals and as parents. I am experienced in working with parents and teens and helping each person improve those familial relationships.
For over a decade, I had the honor of working in medical settings with individuals coping with and adjusting to a new chronic and/or terminal disease diagnosis and with their families as they grapple with their new normal.
I have facilitated grief support groups for those who have lost a loved one or experienced a different type of loss. Processing grief is very important and looks different for each individual. I enjoy partnering with clients in finding their way back to joy and purpose after a loss.
It is a huge step to seek out therapy. I look forward to meeting you and helping you become the healthiest version of yourself.
I am a compassionate therapist who specializes in supporting individuals navigating grief and loss, anxiety, difficult life decisions and struggles affecting individuals and their well-being. I work with clients of all ages and backgrounds. Through a supportive and personalized approach, I help clients process their emotions, build healthy coping skills, and find ways to move forward while honoring their experiences, fostering healing, resilience, and renewed hope.
I’m Kim Ivester, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 23 years of experience working in both community and school settings across Georgia. I work with adolescents and adults, helping them navigate life’s challenges and transitions at different stages.
Teens often face stress from school, friendships, self-esteem, anxiety, or depression, while adults may be managing major life changes, relationship challenges, or the pressure of balancing multiple responsibilities. I understand how unique each stage of life can be, and I strive to create a safe and supportive space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.
My approach is empathetic and practical—I listen closely, help you set meaningful goals, and guide you in building the skills and confidence you need to create positive change and find balance in your life.
I am also an Approved Clinical Supervisor and can provide supervision for those pursuing licensure in Georgia.
I know how easy it is to become the person everyone depends on while quietly carrying stress, pressure, anxiety, or emotional pain underneath the surface. Many of the clients I work with are high functioning professionals, caregivers, parents, and leaders who are used to pushing through life while putting their own emotional needs on the back burner. Over time, that emotional weight can start showing up in relationships, work, sleep, mood, self esteem, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself.
My goal as a therapist is to create a space where you no longer feel like you have to hold everything together alone.
I specialize in EMDR therapy and work with adults and couples navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship stress, and emotional overwhelm. My approach is warm, grounded, and direct. I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation with someone who is present, engaged, and genuinely invested in helping you heal and grow.
Together, we will explore not only what is happening in the present, but also how past experiences may still be shaping the way you think, feel, react, and connect with others today. EMDR can help reduce the emotional intensity connected to painful experiences so you can move through life with greater clarity, confidence, and peace.
With over 16 years of experience in mental health and substance use recovery, I am passionate about helping people move out of survival mode and feel more emotionally connected, balanced, and like themselves again.
I provide virtual therapy to clients in Georgia, Florida, and Virginia.

I work collaboratively with people who struggle to manage depressive thoughts or are caught in a cycle of anxiety and avoidance.
Hi I am Jasmine and I am grateful to be considered a partner in your journey to better health.
Have you been feeling overwhelmed by your addiction, negative thoughts, depression, or anxiety? Did you know that it is perfectly ok to need some help and guidance to work through those places where you may be struggling? You do not have to do it alone and should already feel encouraged by making the brave decision to start therapy.
I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space to allow you to have a genuine and therapeutic session with me. You can expect to feel heard and also equipped with tools that you can use to grow and overcome those struggles that may have seemed impossible to tackle before.

If you are ready... I am ready. Let's do this together!
Welcome, I am Feven!
Do you feel pulled in a million directions, unable to fit it all in? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I help individuals manage anxiety, depression and burnout. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach; addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit.
I am passionate about helping individuals navigate the different challenges they face and build coping skills to create more fulfilling and holistic life experiences. From my journey, I can personally attest to the power of support, in its many forms. This support goes beyond clients I service but also to their families and communities. I believe that mental wellness isn’t just individualistic; but includes the ecosystem surrounding the person. My praxis acknowledges and aims to support the village needed by all.
I’m also passionate about the transformative impact of safe and brave spaces for those who often experience exclusion. My career has afforded me opportunities to build trust with LGBTQ+, Black, Indigenous, Latina/o/x, and Refugee communities across the nation. It is a personal privilege to center wellness and holistic care for all as ‘self-care is a radical form of resistance.’
Whether you're dealing with overwhelm, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, trauma, PTSD, self-acceptance, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion, empathy and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back.
Let's work together!
Hi, I’m Nathan Popham, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families across a variety of settings. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and comfortable being themselves. My approach is warm, practical, and collaborative, and I enjoy helping clients build coping skills, improve relationships, process difficult experiences, and work toward meaningful personal growth.
Recovery is not just about substances. It is about reclaiming yourself. I believe we are all recovering from something, whether that is trauma, anxiety, burnout, grief, unhealthy relationships, substance use, or years of surviving instead of truly living. Healing is not about becoming someone new. It is about reconnecting with the version of yourself that has been buried beneath life's experiences.
I work with millennials who are ready to better understand themselves, break unhealthy generational patterns, and create lasting change. Together, we will explore what is keeping you stuck while building practical skills that help you move forward with greater confidence, clarity, and intention.
My approach is warm, honest, and collaborative. I create a space where you feel safe enough to be vulnerable while also feeling supported enough to grow. I believe therapy should be compassionate, practical, and empowering. You can expect me to listen with empathy while gently challenging the beliefs and behaviors that may no longer be serving you.
Whether you are navigating life transitions, relationship struggles, trauma, anxiety, substance use, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, you do not have to face it alone. My goal is to help you not only feel better but also build a life that feels authentic, balanced, and meaningful. Together, we will focus on helping you move beyond survival and toward lasting recovery and healing.
Talking to someone new can be extremely difficult. Are you looking to talk to someone non-judgmental and authentic. Someone who will guide you in making changes in your behavior, thought process and emotions. You may have been impacted by life circumstances, stressors, or even a traumatic event that wasn’t within your control. It's important to be patient with yourself as you set goals. My name is Melissa Bryant. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Certified Christian Counselor, Certified Christian Grief Counselor, Certified Symbis Facilitator that offers evidence based assessments for premarital, martial counseling and a Doctoral student with 15 years of expertise.
It takes courage to talk with someone new. I am convinced you can face each obstacle and be victorious. Please be patient with yourself, as you take the next steps. I invite you to join me as I help you bring to light your strengths and overcome challenges that may have stagnated you from reaching your full potential.
Hi there, I'm Xavier

Hello. My name is Howard Patterson, but I go by Andy. I have been a mental health professional for over 45 years, with the majority of my experience being in the field of child welfare.

While I am not a Biblical scholar, I consider myself to be very spiritual and I will gladly offer my views and thoughts;, with respect to your issues, if you initiate that conversation. I have been a Christian since the age of nine.
