I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience providing evidence-based, trauma-focused therapy to adults seeking emotional stability, personal growth, and meaningful change. My work is grounded in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), supporting clients in building emotional awareness, psychological flexibility, and resilience. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic stress, and emotional dysregulation. My therapeutic approach is collaborative and integrative, combining talk therapy with hands-on, skills-based interventions that clients can actively practice both in and outside of session. Treatment focuses on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, values-based decision-making, and healthier interpersonal functioning. I believe therapy is most effective when it is structured, supportive, and empowering. I work closely with clients to identify treatment goals, increase emotional insight, and develop practical tools that help them manage overwhelming emotions, reduce reactivity, and respond more intentionally to life’s challenges. Clients often describe my style as direct, compassionate, and focused on real-world application. My goal is to help clients feel more grounded, confident, and equipped to manage anxiety, stress, depression, and emotional dysregulation while fostering long-term stability and personal growth.

Choosing to start therapy is a big step, and I don’t take that lightly. It’s truly a privilege to walk alongside people in seasons where they’re growing, reflecting, and working toward healing.

Because of that, I understand how overwhelming life can feel at times, but I also believe that change, clarity, and healing are real. In my work as a therapist, I’ve supported individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, men’s issues, substance use, and trauma. Life moves fast, and a lot gets put on us emotionally. My goal is to give you a space where you can slow down, think clearly, and be yourself without judgment—while also creating room for truth, growth, and restoration. I aim to build a relationship that’s honest, supportive, and real. Whether you’re dealing with something specific or just trying to figure things out, I’m here to help you gain insight, build resilience, and develop tools that actually stick.

I always knew that I wanted to be a helping professional. As part of an assignment, while taking a counseling course designed to assist offenders with substance abuse problems, I had to write in five words or less what I wanted people to remember about me. My words were “helped people live better lives.” I have over 30 years of experience working with clients who live with psychiatric and substance use disorders. I started my "helping" career working for the Georgia Department of Corrections (GDC). After observing the effects of early childhood trauma on many of the offenders that I supervised, I decided to end my 21-year career with GDC and pursue an education in counseling. I have never regretted this decision! For the last 6 years I have provided psychotherapy for individuals and groups. I love doing what I believe I have been called to do and my life's work remains guided by those five simple words in my title. I look forward to helping you learn to live a better life!

You have taken the first step and you are here. Let's get started! I am highly motivated and compassionate about providing safe and realistic therapy designed to meet your needs. As a therapist who believes that therapy should help you in real life. I want us to work together to thrive instead of just surviving. My practice is designed to include all walks of life such as professionals, stay-at-home parents, teens and adolescents, entrepreneurs students, family, friends or someone who seeks direction and personal management. Therapy should be non-judgemental, helpful, and affirming. I look forward to hearing from you so we can begin your therapy journey that aligns with your future! Are you still having doubts? It is okay! Let's do something about it! Are you ready for the next step? If so, select a time below that aligns with our schedules!

I work with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and relational and transitional concerns to restore homeostasis in their lives, using a mix of modalities tailored to meet the needs of the individual.

I am a therapist that likes to actively build towards getting clients the changes they are seeking: To feel better emotionally, improve self esteem, see positive changes in their lives and relationships, to gain healing, and increase motivation. We will begin by talking and processing the issues and then figuring out what would be the most helpful approach to get started . I believe in listening to what my clients need and then developing an individualized strategy for each person with his or her input s the foundation. Clients would describe me as warm, open, and guiding ,while still leaving room for them to make the best decision for themselves, as well as affirming of who you are now, not who you can be. I take the approach, "You are not lost, you just need to know where to place your feet to keep walking forward." I ask lots of questions to create further exploration and insight using analogies that are easy to relate to. I also provide time for talking, because sometimes hearing yourself say it is the most valuable thing you can do. I believe that the client is the director of his/ her own life and the therapist is a facilitator to help them get to deeper truths within. I work with clients to uncover root causes and treat the deeper issues, not just the symptoms. We come away from sessions with a plan of action for improvement and more understanding about what is causing the blockage to begin with.

My role is to help you uncover those answers, recognize your strengths, and find your way forward. You don't have to have it all figured out. We can figure it out together.

I specialize in treating personality and mood disorders, AD/HD, and co-occurring disorders. I also have extensive experience in career counseling. I enjoy working with adolescents, teens, and adults. I apply cognitive behavioral approach and solution-focused brief therapy; however, I am experienced in several other therapeutic modalities.

Welcome, and thank you for taking the first step toward your healing journey. My name is Juliet Stephenson, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping individuals find emotional wholeness, clarity, and peace. I believe that therapy is a powerful space for healing—where your experiences are honored, your voice is heard, and your growth is supported with compassion and clinical care. My passion is working with adolescents, adults, and families who have experienced trauma, relationship challenges, stress, and emotional overwhelm. With years of experience in inpatient, outpatient, and residential treatment settings, I bring a trauma-informed, client-centered, and spiritually grounded approach to healing.In a world that feels increasingly fast-paced and demanding, it’s easy to lose sight of your own needs. Therapy can be the place where you choose yourself again. My role is to offer a steady, compassionate presence as you navigate your personal “becoming” journey. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or struggling in your relationships or parenting, you don’t have to face it alone. Healing is possible, and together we can work toward clarity, confidence, and emotional balance. I understand that every person’s story is unique. Because of that, I draw from evidence-based, person-centered, and trauma-informed approaches to create a therapeutic experience that fits you. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can process, grow, and reclaim what matters most. Whenever you’re ready to take the next step, I’m here. Let’s begin.

You will find me easy to talk to, compassionate, and warm. Working together in a collaborative effort, we will explore ways to help you identify and change thoughts and behavior patterns that keep you from feeling your best. I will tailor your therapeutic needs specifically designed to fit your circumstances to achieve optimal mental health. Searching for the 'right fit' with a therapist doesn't have to be a difficult task. It begins with our working together to empower you to be your own 'change-agent'! I will help you reflect, finding clarity and understanding, allowing you to achieve a more authentic, fulfilling and content life.

I have lived a long and colorful life. Like everyone else, I've made good and bad choices and learned from each. I have 22+ years experience in the mental health and substance abuse treatment field. I DO NOT JUDGE, AT ALL, PERIOD. I can be both blunt and gentle as appropriate. My role is to offer another perspective, a way to see life more fully and function better, no more, no less. I don't pretend to have all the answers but only one slice of wisdom. I just share what can help someone. Some people are not yet ready to be helped. Yet for those who are feeling lost on life's journey and are willing to listen and learn, I'm here to assist. My life work can be summed up in three words, "offering people hope.

I am not your typical therapist as I started my career in finance and have an undergrad in Business. While I could succeed in this path, I did not find meaning in it. I see becoming a therapist as a calling and not a vocation. I first worked in acute mental health as an advocate, then as an addiction counselor, and eventually after receiving my MSW as a dual diagnosis therapist. I have much empathy for the hurting and have always been drawn to those who have suffered from mental illness, addiction, and the effects of trauma. As such, I have been a mental health advocate, addiction therapist, mental health therapist, trauma therapist, psychiatric director, and behavioral health COO. I feel like I have seen all levels of behavioral health care and use that wealth of experience, resources, and specialized training to help others. I believe that compassion and empathy are keys to change and try my very best to meet you where you are. I also value diversity and have worked with a wide range of the problems that individuals and couples struggle with. Most of all, I am not a respecter of persons and have worked with the homeless to the CEOs of major corporations. I feel that we are all just humans and that we all struggle with similar challenges and problems. I have also worked with a great diversity of people from very diverse cultures and many international clients.
