I am a Licensed Professional Counselor at Grow Counseling and I work at both our Buckhead and Alpharetta office locations. I received a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Spanish from Furman University and a Master of Arts in Mental Health Counseling from Wake Forest University. I work with children, teens, and adults.

My specialty is working with teen and young adult females in their early to mid 20's typically dealing with anxiety, depression, OCD and life transitions. I also do family therapy and parenting work.

Welcome! We may be a good fit for therapy if you or your family are looking for support with disordered eating, body image issues, family communication, anxiety, or depression. I work with children as young as 10 and love involving family through either family therapy sessions or collaboration as I work with a young person individually. If you are a parent overwhelmed with supporting your child's mental health needs, I can also help with outlining options for levels of care and supporting your child as they step up or down in levels of care.

Our lives consist of transitions of all kinds. I enjoy meeting people in the spaces within those transitions. Often, such times are the occasion for discernment, assessment, and change.

I focus on strengths as well as challenges and seek creative, imaginative solutions. I respect all life contexts and spiritual orientations. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families.

I work with women who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, postpartum, managing cultural dynamics, relational/family stress, career transitions, etc. As a wife and mother, I truly understand the various challenges faced by other women in regards to their career, family, relationships and self-love.

Do you consider yourself resilient? My goal when working with clients is to assist them in finding their inner resilience which will help them to reach their ultimate goals in therapy. I have worked with clients and supervisees to empower them to use their strengths and competencies to improve and enhance their life situations.

Hello and welcome! I provide a creative and exploratory environment for children, preteens, teens, and their families to navigate through the anxiety and struggles of life's challenges. With a foundation in expressive therapy and play therapy, based on client presentation and needs, I integrate both directive and non-directive play therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, and mind/body connection. I find that therapy is not a one size fits all experience and I strive to engage clients in creatively finding what will support them within the therapeutic experience.

I would be honored to walk along side you in your journey to health and well being. My clinical interests include anxiety and depression, trauma, sexual addiction problems, couples therapy, parenting skills, past childhood attachment issues, the integration of faith in the healing process, communication patterns and the role of the family in growth and change.

I am an LCSW specializing in individual, couple's and family therapy. My approach is eclectic, incorporating a variety of techniques to meet the needs of each client.

I have new patient appointment availability to see older adolescents and adults of all ages. I welcome all individuals regardless of sex, religion, sexual preference, or race.

Hi! I am Dr. Malissa Collins, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Georgia specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I have experience working with individuals from various backgrounds, families, and couples. My Ph.D. is in Marriage and Family Therapy. My approach is warm and compassionate. My focus is to meet clients where they are and teach them ways to successfully navigate through life to meet goals. My clients appreciate my warmth, nonjudgmental style. It helps to make them feel relaxed and confident.

I adhere to the philosophy that relationships are at the core of the human experience, yet there are times when healing can't be done alone. My work is fundamentally relational. I help people overcome trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship issues, with an understanding that these issues can overlap or involve additional problems impacting other areas of life. I am warm, relatable, active, and flexible, balancing exploratory work with directness. I have over 15 years of experience with a diverse body of clients. I divide my time between clinical work, teaching, and research.

If something feels off, but you're unsure what it is or you know exactly what it is but are afraid to confront it, I can help. I enjoy working with people who feel stuck and want to break out of long-standing unhealthy patterns that lead to frustration in relationships.

I have been treating clients who struggle with eating disorders, mood disorders, anxiety and related disorders, life transition issues, grief/loss, and marital and family issues for about 30 years. I also work as a therapist who treats other therapists for their own mental wellness needs and I work as a consultant for therapists starting and/or growing their practices. Clients and families typically come to me for help with diagnosis, treatment planning, and treatment implementation, often through referral from another professional or a past client. Often, these clients have tried other treatments and haven’t found optimal results.
