Therapists in Gilmer County, GA

Hello, I'm Tammy Cha, a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with a passion for mental health and well-being. With years of experience in the field, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges and find their path to emotional balance and resilience.

Getting help takes courage and if you've reading this right now, YOU are courageous. Sometimes we don't feel that way and that is ok. This is where I come in. Allow me to listen and support you through the challenges life can put on our plate. What's on yours? History of unhealthy alcohol use and/or substance use? Depression? Anxiety? Difficulty staying on task at work and/or managing home life? Do you sometimes feel out of place being a minority? Do the kids have you wanting to cry and rip your hair out? Let's work together to overcome some of these absolutely workable things. I promise, you're going to be ok.

It feels so tough to accept that you're only human and you might be struggling to reach your goals or with dealing with tough changes, even with the work and effort you've been putting in to yourself. Despite going through your day-to-day with life and work, it's been intense and sometimes feels like you're still on autopilot. You can see how your experience with past trauma has affected you. You've been working on yourself, and you're looking for a deeper way to address your pain. You're ready to take the next step to continue supporting your self-growth and change journey. If this resonates with you- you're in the right place!

Do you want to be listened to without criticism, judgment, or feelings of rejection? Most people do! But do you desire something more? When most people enter therapy, what they often truly desire is change. I want to help you achieve whatever solutions and life changes you are seeking while enjoying the process as much as possible. Simply said, I don’t believe therapy has to always be a painful thing. Calling a therapist can be intimidating, but I hope you will take a moment (and maybe even a deep breath) to reach out and see how I can help.

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.

Do you feel like past or current challenges affect your ability to meet your full potential? Are you feeling lost, powerless, or disengaged? Have you noticed yourself resorting to unwanted activities to cope with distress? Are you seeking a therapeutic space that acknowledges you as a whole, complex person while you work toward your goals? I work with individuals, families, and couples to address these concerns. As your therapist, I feel passionate about empowering you with tools to live a full, cognizant, and rewarding life. Together, we work collaboratively to navigate life stressors affecting your quality of life.

My practice is centered around helping people reconnect with their inherent goodness. So many of us walk around with a deep sense of unworthiness, a feeling that there's something wrong, finding ourselves in conflict with others, lacking purpose, and disconnected from our true selves. This is uncomfortable, painful even. In response to this discomfort, we develop all sorts of means to cope: drugs and alcohol, work, money, sex, video games, or TV. Or, we try to fix what’s “wrong” through perfectionism, achievement, therapy, or spirituality. We try to avoid or fix our insecurities out of fear, allowing them to grow.

Talk therapy is not enough. My approach to therapy focuses on combining cognitive and somatic therapies to strengthen connection to self, and reduce the blocks to healing. The goal is to connect to your authenticity, and have the freedom to find positive and affirming ways to enjoy relationships with self and others. The goal is to experience life without shutting down or disconnecting, and/or using destructive behaviors to reduce pain and distress. Attaining the freedom to choose what you want for yourself, begins with taking the first step.

Have you found that doing “just” talk therapy isn’t working well for you? Do you find that your life experiences are getting in the way of you enjoying your life and meeting your life goals?

Despite the chaos of today's world, there is an incredible opportunity for change. You can learn to turn anxiety into your superpower and heal from past traumas that have kept you repeating the same behaviors that keep you stuck. If you want to improve how you show up in relationships, at work, or your overall well-being, you must do the inner work. People who suffer from anxiety nearly always have unexpressed negative feelings about some problem in their lives. The inner work helps you become more mindful and empowers you to respond from a place of choice rather than reaction.
