As a therapist with experience in addiction, I specialize in working with adults focusing on recovery from substance abuse, as well as family members and loved ones who are affected by someone's drinking or substance use. In addition to these areas, I also help people experiencing Anxiety, Depression, Grief, Men's Issues, Anger Management, and other Interpersonal Issues.

Day to day life can be really hard! We're all doing the best we know how, but certain times it feels like something might be missing. We all need support in different areas to navigate our personal struggles from depression, anxiety, stress management, behavioral issues, or family communication challenges. I believe in empowering you to identify what your hopeful future and goals look like and helping you to get there in a healthy way. By focusing on these goals, your strengths, and family history, I'll support you towards growth, healing, and healthy relationships.

In all stages of life, we find ourselves in need of validation, support, and empathy. My aim is to provide you a safe/affirming space to share challenging life experiences and give you skills to navigate them. Seeking help is not easy and I applaud you for taking this first step. I strive to honor your unique identities and collaborate with you in examining how your backgrounds may impact your wellness. My clinical specialties include relationship concerns, family of origin concerns, adjustment difficulties, identity exploration, anxiety, and mood concerns.

I am an ABPP certified psychologist providing evidence-based psychotherapy to people ages 17+. Having practiced in Georgia since 2007 when I completed my postdoctoral fellowship in Clinical Psychology at Emory University, I've worked in private practice and hospital settings for 15+ years treating depression, anxiety (including OCD, panic, phobias, and chronic worry/GAD), PTSD and other trauma or grief related issues, bipolar disorder, insomnia, and issues related to meaning/purpose and existential distress. I work with individuals from late adolescence through older adulthood across the continua of gender, ethnicity, and faith.

Life happens in unexpected ways. Whether adjusting to a sudden life change or a known life transition, you may be feeling emotionally overwhelmed and exhausted. The time period of transitioning to adulthood is stressful enough and dealing with anxiety, hopeless feelings, or just uncertainty on how to move forward can make it unbearable. Many adults have found help by reaching out and working with a therapist. There is an opportunity to learn and grow from your experience. Maya Angelou says, “You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”

Are life stressors causing a strain? Ever feel like you just can’t get it right no matter how hard you try, or feel like you’re falling into a comparison trap? Everyone has periods when they may benefit from professional support. Please consider allowing us to help you move from pain to peace. Key Counseling Group is a private practice specializing in stepfamily, stepparent, and career coaching as well as psychotherapy for anxiety, depression, substance abuse, grief, relationship stressors, parenting support, trauma, eating disorders, and more. We work with couples, individuals, children, teens, and families.

As a client-centered therapist, I believe in the human capacity to "self-actualize." In psychology, self-actualization is achieved when you're able to reach your full potential. I have learned that we are more alike than different in this work. Most people want to feel seen, heard, loved, valued, protected, and connected. Where one is missing, there is usually an amplification in anxiety. I am in the empathy business. I use connection and evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to help clients clarify their "why" and navigate a path to deeper fulfillment—professionally and personally.

Is there a silent voice telling you that you’re not good enough? Constantly feeling like something is wrong with you? Tired of dealing with anxiety and depression, and never feeling like you are acceptable while assessing your behaviors, thoughts and responses ? Not to mention the triggers and comparisons, where you get thrown into fight or flight mode. Then you feel overwhelmed and stressed... you’re not sleeping well, and now your body is starting to feel tight and heavy. All you know is that you are tired of this cycle and want out!

Are you feeling stuck; have anxiety or hopelessness; tired of the cycles you're in? Are your head and heart not aligned in a way that's holding you back? Is your need for healing showing up in your daily life and relationships? With vulnerable self work you can reach who you are meant to be. If you're seeking a nurturing environment to be seen, heard, and known, please reach out. My therapeutic approach is thoughtfully tailored to empower you to build resilience and discover a deeper connection with yourself and others, ultimately leading to a more authentic, healed, and healthier life.

Whether you are pregnant, new to Motherhood, a seasoned parent, or struggling with body image - you may be experiencing feelings of loneliness, anxiety, fear, identity crisis, or trauma. You may feel as though you’ve lost control, as both your body and seemingly your whole life have changed. Are you told to “enjoy every minute” or “bounce back after birth”? These unwelcomed pressures can also add to our feelings of guilt and shame. I am here to support you. Know you are not alone. Together, we will use mindfulness practices, imagery, and therapeutic strategies to help you be present, release self-doubt, and cultivate confidence.

Have a repeating pattern of difficulty maintaining satisfying relationships? Struggling to gain freedom from memories of a painful past? Feeling stuck in cycles of conflict with your partner? Regardless of what your stressors are, you are capable of reaching your emotional potential, and living a fulfilled life through obtaining balance, wellness, and peace. I work with a range of issues, including attachment trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, racial identity issues, and other mental health stressors, with training in EMDR, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and internal family systems (IFS). I see individuals and couples.

Motherhood is hard - it's okay to admit that! It's also okay for mothers to reach out for support along the way. You don't have to figure it out alone.

If you experience frequent obsessive-compulsive behaviors, anxiety, depressed feelings or you feel, you and your spouse are growing apart in your relationship, it can cause severe distress and disruption in daily life, affecting your well-being. Making choices and finding meaning in life may have become difficult. In my private practice, I focus on individual treatment and couples counseling. I like to offer a strength-based and person-centered approach. In a collaborative therapeutic relationship, we will work together for you to reach your goals for therapy and learn how to use your strengths towards healing and personal growth.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive. I work to help clients achieve psychological wellness and experience their lives with a sense of peace, satisfaction, and hope. I promote clients' ability to identify their goals, achieve them, and ultimately create the life they want. I use various cognitive behavioral strategies to promote strengths, while empowering clients to recognize, understand, and adaptively manage life's challenges. I know that life is challenging - full of highs and lows. I also know that within the context of supportive relationships and with sincere efforts, people can thrive.

Are you ready for a change? Art therapy may be right for you. It is not always easy to express our feelings with words alone. There are many challenges life throws at us, but sometimes we can work through them best by doing what comes naturally - creating. In my experience everyone is a born creator. I can help you use art and artistic expression to confront your deepest fears and begin the process of healing. You may be stronger than you think.

Making changes can be hard and finding a therapist can be overwhelming. I started working in this field over fifteen years ago to help people like you find a space that is welcoming and provides the safety needed to explore whatever it is you are facing. I believe that everyone has their own unique story, and that healing takes place in the rapport built between client and therapist. Therapy can help you become unstuck. It can help reveal patterns that are no longer useful and can help build resiliency. Seeking wellbeing is a courageous act and I do not take that lightly. I would be honored to explore how we might work together.

You feel alone, isolated, scared, or hopeless. Do you sometimes think that you are not good enough? Are you struggling with disordered eating, body image concerns, or anxiety? You are not alone and therapy can provide a safe space for you to feel connected and understood. Therapy can give you the tools to understand these emotions and make positive changes in your life. Dr. Hansen will work collaboratively with you in a supportive environment to help you reach your goals.

Since you are here, you may want change in your life, relief, and healing. Wanting more for yourself is adaptive. Seeking help is healthy. By reaching out for support, you are bringing yourself closer to the relief and change that you desire. I use an integrative approach to therapy to help people harness adaptive parts of themselves in the service of letting go of unhelpful, self-destructive, and repetitive behaviors and achieving relief, happiness, and lasting change. This occurs within a collaborative, empowering, and respectful relationship between us that involves authentic compassion, warmth, transparency, and nonjudgment.

There’s more to life than just working and caring for others. You struggled to build this life for yourself, but now there’s little joy in it. You feel disconnected, alone. You yearn to do more than just survive. You want to explore new parts of yourself, deepen your relationships, and find new energy for life. How can you get there when right now your plate is so full you’re barely making it through the day? Things can get better. I will walk with you through this time of awakening and help you refocus on your own needs as you journey toward the life you want. A life full of authenticity and connection.
