Hi, I’m Felicia, a licensed therapist who’s passionate about helping people navigate life’s ups and downs. I’ve worked with individuals facing everything from anxiety and depression to big life changes and figuring out who they are. Taking the first step toward therapy is a big deal, and I know it can bring up all kinds of emotions—excitement, uncertainty, maybe even a little fear. But deciding to invest in yourself is truly powerful. I believe real growth comes from building meaningful connections, finding purpose, and challenging the thoughts that hold us back. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where you can explore your challenges, recognize your worth, and tap into the strength you already have. You don’t have to do this alone—I’m here to help.

Hi, I’m Alexis! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia with several years of experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma, life transitions, and difficult family or relationship dynamics. You may be feeling emotionally exhausted, overwhelmed by your thoughts, uncertain about a relationship, or frustrated by patterns that keep repeating. You may also be functioning well on the outside while privately struggling to manage your mood, past experiences, or the expectations placed on you. Therapy can provide a place to slow down, understand what is happening, and begin making meaningful changes. My experience includes community-based care, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, nonprofit organizations, residential treatment, and private practice. I use evidence-based approaches including Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and other trauma-informed and attachment-based interventions. Your treatment will be tailored to your needs rather than based on a one-size-fits-all approach. I earned bachelor’s degrees in Psychology and Religion, a Master of Social Work, and a Certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Georgia. I am currently completing my Doctorate degree and also serve as a part-time Assistant Professor, helping prepare future social work professionals. My style is warm, authentic, engaging, and collaborative. I want you to feel comfortable being yourself in therapy while also receiving honest feedback, practical tools, and support in working toward the changes that matter to you.

Hello! I am a compassionate clinician with over 10 years of experience providing therapy to individuals facing various challenges, including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and substance use.

Are things in your life just feeling slightly off? Your relationships aren't feeling as fulfilling or as close as they used to feel? Are you feeling like there is so much going on that you feel overwhelmed? I understand how that can weigh you down and hold you back. You have so much to process and deal with that it is taking a toll on your work and your personal relationships. Resilience counseling can provide you with a path through all of this and I look forward to showing you this path. My approach is to work collaboratively with you to empower and enhance your life experiences. I use a strengths-based approach informed by a wellness perspective. This means my goal is to search for your strengths and use those to help you cope with all that you are dealing with in your life. In this search we will find those solutions and tools you have used to handle situations and enhance them to work for you now when things feel so different and hard to deal with. We will figure out what influences in your life have had impact on who you are today and look at ways to increase those beneficial influences and lessen those negative ones that have had power over you unnecessarily. We will look to give you the power back to control your own life circumstances. These efforts will build your inner resilience and your ability to recover more quickly from similar difficulties moving forward. I look forward to sharing my expertise to aid in your reaching your desired potential.

One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I applaud you on taking this first step in investing in your growth and personal development. Sometimes, we are faced with major life changes or challenges that alter our perspective on life, which directly impact our mental, emotional, and social well-being. By promoting a safe, judgement free, and shame free environment, my aim is to allow you the freedom to explore your experiences with a sense of curiosity, compassion, openness, and acceptance. I offer online counseling to individuals, families and groups to help them develop the skills necessary to successfully overcome challenges in life. My background as a high school and college counselor also gives me a wealth of experience to draw from when working with families, adolescents, and young adults. As your therapist, I believe that the healing process begins by creating a safe environment and building and maintaining a strong therapeutic relationship. My ultimate goal is to empower you to make positive life changes while helping you develop confidence in your ability to achieve a healthy balance in all aspects of your life.
