Janae Crittenden
Pre-Licensed Professional
Verified
My clients would describe my therapeutic style as non-judgmental, warm, and encouraging. I have achieved this by creating a supportive therapeutic relationship with individuals, couples, and families - “traditional” and nontraditional. Together, we can explore life transitions, relationships, sexuality, and mental and emotional subjects. Ultimately, you will identify inner and community resources, create and improve coping skills, establish effective self-care practices, and create the reality you want.

I work to create a safe, warm, nurturing, and affirmative environment for my clients. I believe that everyone is capable of the change they seek to achieve while also being compassionate to how challenging roadblocks (ex. trauma) can be on our life journey. I have worked in addiction recovery and the mental health field for almost a decade. This includes working with domestic violence, women’s/masculinity issues, depressive/anxious disorders, personality disorders, mood disorders, and substance misuse.

Are you unhappy and wondering if your marriage is part of the problem? Are you and your partner arguing about the same issues without getting anyplace? Do you worry that you and your spouse are drifting apart? Are you avoiding conversations about "sensitive" issues? Are you or your partner beginning to drink to relieve tension? Are you wondering what's happened to the fun and friendship, to the love and affection you once felt for each other? Do you sometimes wonder if you might have married the wrong person? These are signs that your marriage needs help.

Carolyn N Wright-Herard
PhD
Life, as we know it, can be challenging. Trying to balance work, family, friends and simply "alone" time can seem daunting and rendering us powerless. We continue to push through life in spite of these challenges until one day you have finally run out of gas. Many of us are feeling the pinch of burnout and having support and guidance to help identify these pitfalls are vital to our wellbeing. Just being able to find our "voice" can be a journey that can lead to resilience. As an Industrial & Organizational psychologist, I have a keen understanding about these issues and use effective ways to help one navigate through these trials.

It takes courage to seek a counseling relationship--good for you for taking this first step! A compassionate, nonjudgmental therapist can help people identify and change dysfunctional patterns that are keeping them "stuck." My goal is to provide clients with a sense of safety, confidence, and hope as they explore issues that are causing distress. I work with adults using a blend of evidence-based treatment methods that help increase self-awareness, improve communication, and strengthen coping skills. Trauma, anxiety, depression, loss, chronic illness, and complicated bereavement are my particular focus.

Going to counseling is a huge commitment. It is imperative to find the right fit for yourself and one who can best address your issues. Contact me at Therapistcb@gmail.com. As a past staff member at Peachford and Emory Hospitals, my training focuses on trauma, difficult transitions, anxiety, ADHD, grief, and depression. My goal is to serve those desiring healing. I specialize in adolescents, college-age, and young adults (along with their families) who are focused on uncovering core reasons for negative patterns of self-harming behaviors, suicidal ideation, and high anxiety. Also, persons facing divorce, alienation, separation.
Maggie Rose Malone
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW
Verified
When my clients come to me, they're tired of going full-speed & trying to appear perfect. They're so focused on getting the next promotion, being in the right relationship, and not making any mistakes that they feel like they've lost themselves in the daily hustle for the next big thing. They worry they’re pushing people away when they say no. Whether it’s with coworkers or with family and friends, they feel resigned to the needs of others. What they want doesn’t matter. They feel like screaming every time they say yes to something they don’t have the physical or emotional energy for but are afraid of letting someone down.
Alison E Reed
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CIRT

You are not “crazy” because you are feeling disconnected from your spouse or partner, or because you keep finding yourself in dating relationships or friendships that are more frustrating that fulfilling. You are not “crazy” because you have difficulty making decisions due to worry about what other people will think. You are not “crazy” because you are beginning to question what you thought you would never question. You are human-and we all have times in our lives when we need help.

Hello. I use a direct, yet supportive approach to focus on improving life skills and releasing negative beliefs and behaviors. Experience has shown that by changing unhealthy patterns, expressing fears, and taking gentle risks, it is possible to live a more satisfying life regardless of past traumas and other issues. With a combination of techniques, we will work together on both short and long term goals. I am an interactive therapist and encourage intensive work both in and out of the office. I have a home office and use video sessions as needed to help with time constraints/distance. I have two small sweet dogs.

HAVE YOU BEEN FEELING...LOST? Not in the traditional sense, perhaps, but numb, nervous, or detached. Disconnected from who you are, or where you’re going. Stuck in a fog of unnecessary pain or in the ruts of everyday life, struggling with the same issues, over and over again. No longer will you have to piece together the differing advice of multiple practitioners; together we’ll employ a wide array of supports. Using the best of modern psychotherapeutic practices and ancient healing we’ll reach a holistic solution. As a psychotherapist, I’ve learned pain can be released, trauma can be resolved and healing is your birthright.

Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, MPH

I like to provide my clients a safe and private therapeutic space, where they can process their feelings, beliefs, struggles, emotional or behavioral concerns. Every human being has stages in their life, when you feel lost, depressive, grieving, anxious or when you experience abuse, trauma, substance or behavioral dependence or other struggles. A Counselor with professional preparation and skills can help you without a judgmental attitude. I like to focus on the people's strengths and resources opening the path of healing. My background and experience helps me to consider your social context, beliefs and culture.
Yvette Gates Heard
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, MDiv, LPC, CPCS

As a faith based, evidence based, and clinical counselor, I believe therapy is a collaborative journey between the client and therapist. Every individual is composed of mind, body and spirit. If one is out of balance so are the other two. My objective is to provide help on the path to wholeness and tranquility. My first goal in counseling is to create a safe space for clients to express feelings and challenges encountered. As ordained clergy, I believe it is important for clergy to have a forum to express their challenges and thoughts without repercussion or concern about perceptions from congregations in which they serve.

Feeling stuck, hopeless, or stressed can be overwhelming. You’ve come to the right place! I offer a warm and casual style to help you reach your toughest goals. I will encourage you to make positive changes toward personal growth while helping you understand yourself better. I can teach you effective coping skills that you can use now and later.

The stress that people face comes from all sides. Therapy is a road to healing and health when stress and anxiety become a burden. If you are a woman overwhelmed by the demands of life, and feeling like you are never enough for anyone, counseling will provide you with the necessary support to be more present and confident in your daily life. If you are are a teen feeling disconnected from your parents, your friends, and yourself, counseling will give you tools to understand yourself and connect with those most important to you. If your child has unique needs or challenging behaviors, parenting counseling will help.
Haley DePrato
Counselor, MAMFT, APC
Verified
Welcome! I provide trauma-informed counseling to women who want to develop healthier relationships with themselves, others, and God. I believe we were created to connect in meaningful ways. We tend to get stuck in relational patterns that leave us feeling unknown, overwhelmed, and ashamed. Anxiety, insecurities, and past experiences keep you from connecting more honestly with others, and even God. Your relationship with your body never seems to improve. Or maybe you’re exhausted from holding it all together and are ready for more support.
