Therapists in Georgia

I believe in creating a new therapy for each client and that you are the expert of your life. By building a trusting therapeutic relationship with you, I want to help guide you through the challenges life can bring. I utilize an integrative, person-centered approach to therapy, emphasizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Art Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and several other therapeutic modalities. My clinical experience has given me the skills to efficiently treat ADHD, Adjustment Disorder, Complicated Grief and Loss, Anxiety Disorders, and Mood Disorders.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a niche' of mental health, substance abuse, and trauma to African American teenagers and women. I believe that self-sufficiency is key to personal and professional success. I enjoy providing counseling and/or coaching services to individuals who are in the transitional phases of their lives. Treatment is individualized to the person receiving services. My theoretical approaches are Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), eclectic and holistic. I prefer to treat the whole person instead of pieces. By helping others to succeed regardless of their ages and stage in life, I succeed.

I believe that solid, intimate relationships form the basis of a person's well-being and help us define who we are. Our earliest relationships provide the foundation for all others. We often choose partners based either on what we want to replicate or avoid in our families of origin. When problems develop in our closest relationships, we feel out of balance and symptoms, such as anxiety and depression, often occur. I help people understand and change patterns that they learned in old relationships that may be influencing their current ones.

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.

I believe all people can be happy and healthy if they are willing to work on themselves and their relationships. I can meet all of your court-ordered needs.

I have experience working with depression, bipolar disorder, adjustment to life circumstances, anxiety, trauma, substance use, anger management, stress, communication skills, relationships and marriages, conflict resolution and provide a supportive approach to nourish recovery. Change is a journey and I strive to offer insight and awareness in targeting triggers, managing symptoms, and overcoming challenges. My approach is a collaborative one that allows us to focus on your needs by listening, understanding feelings, working through and processing symptoms, and ultimately empowering you to achieve the desired lifestyle you seek.

I am a Marital and Family Therapist and I have been working with individuals, couples, and families for over 25 years. I believe in the worth and value of all humans and support their desire to have joy, fulfillment, creativity, and to have control of their destiny. I recognize that some experiences negatively impact our ability to access our internal and external resources to cope with what life throws at us, and so, we find ourselves needing the support of one who is trained and skilled to assist us on that journey toward growth, healing, and change.

My name is Michael Charnley and I am licensed in the state of Georgia, LPC010672. Of course, over 26 years I have become quite eclectic in the therapies I use, but mostly I want to meet the client where they are. Let the session feel like a conversation between 2 acquaintances. Since worked in various agencies when I started I was able to experience a lot of different issues, Depression, Anxiety, Anger Management, Self-Esteem Issues, and since my clients were adolescents, Family Issues. I am also comfortable working with dual diagnosis issues attached to Addiction and Abuse issues.

I offer different types of therapeutic avenues to explore, rework, release and address challenges old or new. We decide the timetable and scope of therapy together whether very focused change is desired or more in depth reworking is wanted. Some people also use therapy to maintain positive gains and have a unique place to speak/ find the truth in a safe, trusting environment. The focus is on enhancing and building on strengths to realize potential based on needs. I use brainspotting, polyvagal informed therapy (Unyte/ILS listening system) and IFS(Internal Family Systems) to deeply and often more rapidly release blocked/frozen issues

I divide my time between trauma therapy and marriage and family therapy. My practice offers individual therapy, couples counseling, mediation, diagnostic and forensic evaluations, and coparenting services. In individual therapy, I tend to work with clients on improving symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, family issues, and PTSD.

I am a mental health counselor working in a private practice setting in Canton, GA. I serve a variety of clients, from children and adolescents to older, more mature clients with lots of "life experiences." I work with some individuals who have had a long history of mental illness and who have been treated in hospital settings for their condition. I also work with people who have never been diagnosed with a mental illness or hospitalized, but who are looking to work on particular issues in their lives and set goals to improve their relationships with others.

Meet Anthony Jackson, affectionately known as "Anthony J.," a renowned clinical mental health counselor revered as "the unconventional therapist." I believe therapy is a journey of transformation, uncovering the true self, and fostering healing, mental wellness, and equilibrium.
