Now is the time to take up space: In life, there are few places where we can be our authentic self and it takes immense courage to take up the space we deserve. Here, I welcome you to be all of who you are, while helping you explore all that you can be. You may be wondering if you are capable of taking this step, and the answer is YES! It may take you out of your comfort zone, but you are not alone once you step outside of it. Sometimes we need additional support to reach our potential and navigate change, and it is my honor to be a helping hand in your life.

Feeling burned out? I get it. How could you not be? You're likely juggling a thousand stressors and demands on your time. You're probably feeling lost and lacking the motivation to achieve your goals. Perhaps you're struggling with your self worth, identity, or maintaining healthy relationships. You’ve heard therapy can help, but you aren’t sure where to start or how to fit this into your busy life. It can be difficult to find an inclusive & affirming therapist that aligns with your worldview and understands the lived experiences of LGBTQ+ and BIPOC folks. If this is starting to sound familiar, you just might be in the right place!

I am L. Elizabeth Shelton, GA LPC 008242 and have been fully licensed since 2012, originally in Virginia and since 2015 in Georgia. My theoretical orientation to therapy is CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) as I believe it is critical to understand how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and drive most of the problems people struggle to overcome. I have experience working with a wide range of areas/conditions, though most often focus on helping individuals with depression, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and trauma.

Welcome! My name is Kelly Dahlke. I am a licensed clinical social worker in the state of Georgia. I am a client centered therapist who works with clients who are dealing with life transitions, grief and loss, and who may benefit from direction and help outside of their circle of family and friends. I work with clients dealing with a number of disorders, including anxiety and depression, trauma, substance abuse issues, and bipolar disorder.

Life is filled with a multitude of experiences in which one is unfortunate to fall backwards than to fall forwards. From that point one determines how their next steps in life will be. Whether struggling with parenting strategies, understanding what it means to manage a current/past traumatic experience, or contemplate the question "Why me?" Using a holistic approach supports a person both internally and externally. Mind, body, and soul. Health of the whole-being is wealth, I encourage anyone who seeks therapy to be motivated and ready to work. "Healing is dependent upon the person who seeks it."-Kellie Vazquez

I also work with individuals of all ages seeking to increase their daily living skills. Additionally, I am available to work with parents who are struggling with their child's challenging behaviors.

There are times when we desire a change or transformation in our lives. Our work together is heart centered and focused on getting you moving forward. I use different modalities according to your needs and acceptance levels for going to a deeper level of consciousness and feeling. We will creatively explore your life issues with a goal of empowerment and self-efficacy. Together, we will address any fears that are keeping you from moving forward, determine your resources and support, and make a plan to help you move in the direction you desire. If you don't know the direction yet, we will begin the work with self-exploration.

My personal and professional experience with mental health began not as a therapist, rather as an advocate for equality in the women’s health community. It is my passion for social justice that has led me to the sacred space in which I can now support others. I trust the power of acceptance and genuineness. I believe that when we are true to self, growth and healing can naturally occur.

My life's work has been dedicated to the service to others. I greatly enjoy meeting people from all walks of life, ethnicities and belief systems.

My experiences include working with a myriad of mental health issues in children, teens and adults.

Do you feel like you are walking alone after the loss of a loved one? Are you tired of being a bystander watching life unfold without meaning or excitement? Do you feel overwhelmed by the demands of life, relationships, work, or school? Have unfortunate circumstances threatened to get the best of you? If you answered yes to any of the above, your journey to "greater living" awaits you. I offer a safe, supportive, space for you to work, grow, and create a more fulfilling life on your terms. I will work with you to clarify your counseling goals, develop a plan to accomplish them, and acquire the insight and tools for "greater living".

Embarking on the journey to find the right therapist can feel overwhelming, but it's essential to discover someone with whom you can establish trust, comfort, and compatibility.

Specializing in assisting adults grappling with mood and personality disorders, I am dedicated to creating a nurturing and secure environment for my clients.

Life is all about relationships. Relationships with ourselves, our loved ones, and our community. While relationships can often bring us great joy, they can also generate feelings of anxiety, depression, and uncertainty. Through our therapeutic partnership, I will help you build the skills to better manage these disruptive feelings and gain insight into your behaviors, ultimately allowing you to find balance and fulfillment.

What if I told you that an estimated 1 in 4 U.S. adults suffers with a diagnosable mental illness each year? What if I told you that 1 in 6 U.S. children has a mental illness? What if I also told you that you’re not alone and that I am ready to help? Imagine having the tools and support you, or your child, need to THRIVE. Imagine a life where the happy days far exceed the sad days. Imagine feeling supported, empowered, and in control of your life. This IS possible and not as far-fetched as you may feel it is right now!

You might be feeling stuck despite ongoing therapy, even after attempting to implement many strategies offered to you. To be quite honest, its never that simple. To get to a place of change requires a toolbox of skills that have been individualized and practiced with you. Without understanding the why and understanding how to break down a new strategy that is doable for you, we end up in a cycle of burnout thinking we are the reason for stagnation. If you are struggling with your emotions, struggling in your relationships or struggling with your habits, behavior coaching may be what you need.
