Narrative Therapists in 30308

I believe in the power that language has to create and shape both worlds and identities. As a result, I take a narrative approach to counseling practice and work with clients to examine the way our language helps or hinders possibilities for health and flourishing. I am a counselor licensed in Georgia with over 9 years of experience. I have my PhD in Psychology and my MS Ed in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I am also a National Certified Counselor (NCC). I have worked with clients that have had a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, grief and loss, career challenges, and life transitions.

Are you tired of feeling defeated or unmotivated? Job stressing you out more than usual? Or, struggling to figure out how to improve your relationship with your partner? I offer a safe place to unpack the things weighing you down. My passion is to help individuals and couples reconnect, with themselves and each other. Together, we can remove the blocks standing in between you and the life you desire to live.

As a counselor with Clinical Mental Health training from Richmont Graduate University, I specialize in guiding teens and young adults through their unique challenges. For teens, I address anxiety stemming from social, school, and family dynamics, providing the necessary support to navigate these changes. For young adults, I assist in the transition from college to career, including complexities in dating, family, and work, offering a safe space to explore self-identity and achieve life goals.

We may sometimes feel that we are not able to embody our identify and beliefs. Feeling you should be something you are not is unbearable: what is core to you can be honored, and what is not can be examined and then embraced, accepted or changed. What we choose to value, and how we pursue those values, dictate what we are to become. Some things cannot be changed, and yet we can choose how we move around them. Being true to yourself can sometimes seem like a difficult choice, and we all must decide when and how to realize our potential, even in the face of adversity.

I view therapy as an essential tool to help prioritize, care for, and learn about ourselves. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families facing a range of challenges including anxiety disorders, OCD, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, identity development, family conflict, and chronic illness. Regardless of what brings you to therapy, my primary goal as a clinician is to create a space that facilitates free expression, highlights your natural abilities, and strengthens self-awareness and self-compassion.

Sometimes it feels as if we lost our way; our closest relationships are a constant source of conflict and loneliness, and we struggle to find true connections, clarity, confidence, hope, and peace. It does not need to be that way. You can be seen and loved for who you really are, and you can count on yourself and others through the ups and downs of life. I enjoy guiding people through that journey to become their best selves and to enjoy fulfilling relationships.

My name is Kimberly and I am so excited to work with you! I am the founder of Mental Chatter, LLC and I have been in the field of mental health, addiction and wellness for 20 years. I provide a safe, confidential and nonjudgmental space that will allow you to truly be yourself and work through your “stuff” in your own way. It’s your time and your therapeutic process…I am your guide.

New GROUPS for Women in Mid-Life and those with Chronic Health/Disability concerns! I am a Champion of the Human Spirit. How is your spirit? Are you feeling unsatisfied, overwhelmed, weary, confused, anxious, depressed? Maybe it seems like you "have everything" and aren't sure why you don't feel content. Therapy looks a lot like a conversation with a good friend. But the gift is that it's a one-way friendship where it's all about you! You get to talk about whatever you want and I get to listen carefully, affirm and encourage your strengths, and ask questions to help you think more deeply about your concerns.

I am here to be present with you as you are. In this positive relationship, you can heal. In my practice I hope to provide a space for you to begin the journey of self-discovery, self-reflection, and growth. Together, we will address the barriers you may face to enhance your life in the ways that are most meaningful to you. My philosophy focuses on the healing nature of connection between people, and I strive to bring empathy, compassion, and presence into the therapeutic space. I am currently accepting clients ages 17 and up. I work with adults ages 18-70 using various treatment modalities and theoretical orientations.

Therapy is a journey where we work towards embracing who you are and who you are becoming. I believe we heal in community and in relationships. I strive to offer you a safe space to grow in connection to yourself and others. It can be incredibly difficult when we feel that our communities and relationships are a place that contributes to us feeling stuck, confused, frustrated or hopeless. When we explore the stories, triggers, patterns, attachment styles and pains that interfere with who and how you want to be, we make space for healing and growth.

I speak teen. I want my clients to go from a place of surviving to thriving. I’m here to help them uncover how to find joy + perseverance in life by connecting deeper with themselves and others through the use of therapeutic strategies + interventions that they can carry with them forever. I have my masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialty in adolescent development. I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) modalities to provide an individualized approach to therapy. Below age 10 I offer parenting sessions.

Throughout life's journey, many people will or may have encountered some form of trauma, abuse, hurt, or pain. If that’s you, I want you also to know that it’s been me too. You’re Not Alone! I am passionate about working with Teens And Adults. I speak trauma, truth, and transparency. Allow me to walk with you along the journey and assist you in living and no longer existing.

Have you ever asked yourself why am I always stressed? Or how about, why do I feel all over the place emotionally? Nobody understands what I am going through, not even my closet family and friends. Does this effect your relationships, work, health, or generally how you feel about yourself as an individual? Well be encouraged! I help everyday people manage their depression, anxiety, loneliness, feelings about themselves, and everyday stressors which occur from just living life. We'll use a holistic approach to addressing the challenges and needs in your life.

I believe that all of the fulfillment that you seek to find externally, can be found within you. A lot of times, people spend their lives seeking ways to find joy and happiness in other things. This often leads to missing out on the beauty that is unfolding within their present day. It is easy for people to become consumed by their everyday lives and even easier to miss out on the simple things that bring happiness.

Trauma leaves us feeling disoriented, hopeless and disconnected from ourselves and others. You’re someone who deeply desires to feel safe and connected with yourself and others but still find yourself ruled by trauma, feeling out of control of your emotions and reactions, and feeling shame that you can’t “get it together.” . You have an idea of how you want to show up in your relationships and life but have no idea how to get there . But you’re ready to make a change. You’re ready to no longer give trauma the final say. You’re ready to feel more grounded and safe and therefore live the life you want to live.

My areas of clinical focus are around men's issues and with members of the LGBTQ community. I'm committed to providing a safe and affirming environment where you can process your feelings, no matter how difficult or uncomfortable. I'm not the kind of psychologist who sits silently and nods while you do all the work. I'm an active therapist and work collaboratively to help you increase self-awareness and identify a healthier path. Additionally, I draw on different theoretical approaches to adapt my work to your needs, but work primarily from a relational psychodynamic perspective.

I am Licensed Clincal Social Worker in Georgia with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with motivation, self esteem, and confidence & coping with life changes.

Seeking therapy can feel a little daunting, or maybe even embarrassing, but you're making the right choice. Have you been struggling with grief or loss? Do you find it hard to stay happy even though you have achieved a lot? Have you discovered an unresolved trauma that needs healing? Are you experiencing anxiety in unmanageable ways? Or do you just want help letting go of things that are keeping you "stuck?" I think I can help with that.
