Therapists in Atlanta, GA

Whether you are facing life challenges such as relationship problems, addiction, work concerns, or health issues, you can move through with more elegance and ease. To me therapy is a gift--a gift of opportunity. An opportunity to heal from the past by increasing understanding of it and gleaning from it the gems that it holds. An opportunity to break long-held rigid patterns born of that past and to start consciously creating new, flexible ones. An opportunity to hold hope for a future free from the past that makes the present a time of freedom and choice.

Hello, my name is Toi Curry and I am a Licensed Psychologist. My primary areas of work include the evaluation of children, adolescents, and adults (individuals ages 2 to 90) who have been dealing with difficulties related to academic development, behavioral functioning, emotional functioning and regulation, memory and learning, executive functioning, and social development. I also provide one-on-one and small-group intervention services, including practical skill-building, psychotherapy, and consultation with parents, families, schools, and organizations.

I specialize in working with adults who have trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and relationship issues. Often when we experience difficult life events, we hold our upsetting memories vividly in our thoughts, beliefs, emotions, and even in our bodies. We revisit the painful past again and again, stuck in negativity and unable to simply talk our way out of the distress. I help my clients to access and process, at a deeper level, these experiences, using effective, evidence-based modalities that work. We clear out the painful past to make room for the joyful, fulfilled, self-actualized life they yearn for and deserve.

If you've been fighting anxiety, worrying, depression, or trauma then you've come to the right place. I come with a wealth of knowledge with over 10 years of experience working in the public and private sector of mental health. Due to COVID-19 we are all facing new stressors and new concerns and as a result I am offering telehealth therapy services throughout this pandemic.

"Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing we will ever do" - Brene Brown. With these words in mind, I work to create an open, caring, and safe space where clients can explore their life story and the challenges that they are facing. I specialize in clinical issues, including addictions, eating disorders, bullying, health concerns, anxiety, and depression. I have experience working with clients ranging from late adolescence to late adulthood. Additionally, I conduct substance and family violence evaluations.

I’m easy to connect with. My clients feel comfortable opening up to me and sharing what they’re going through.

I work with many young professionals, adults, families and couples. I help people who struggle with negative thinking patterns. I focus on cutting-edge, evidence-based psychotherapy techniques that allow for accelerated healing.

If you’re like most people, therapy is daunting. You may be finding yourself stuck, or repeating the same patterns, or tired of the ways you’ve been coping. I can help you during these times. Together, we'll unpack your feelings, understand your situation and develop ways for you to move forward. This journey of life we’re all on isn’t easy. An experienced guide during challenging times can make all of the difference. Contact me today and begin charting a new path for yourself.

Understanding that many life obstacles occur, I can assist you in the journey of self realization and hope! Transitions can be stressful and emotional, and no two people share the same experiences, making it difficult to align with a lifestyle that works for you while you heal. Allow me to guide you through your transition with empathetic understanding, providing tools and support needed for you to be successful. Our trials and hardships are what shape us and the story of our lives. Despite the challenges that life brings we have the ability to soar above our greatest hurdles.

The focus of my therapy practice is based on the premise that our past, present situations, and future aspirations strongly influence our interactions with our environment. As we evolve and confront challenges, it is crucial to recognize our past, adapt to our present surroundings, and modify our perceptions and behavior so we may reach our full potential. My aim is to assist clients in exploring emotions, promoting self-reflection, developing positive methods of communication, and enhancing the foundations that will support life-long relationships and improve the overall quality of life.

Committed love relationships are the most powerful and prized of all human healing. Yet, for many, being in a relationship can bring frustration as well as comfort, heartache as well as joy. My specialty is to help couples improve and connect through proven processes and tools developed by Dr Harville Hendrix, author of the seminal New York Times Best Seller, Getting The Love You Want: a guide for couples. As a Certified Imago Therapist and Workshop Presenter, I help couples regain the safety, compassion and energy that brought them together in the first place.

Cristiane’s clients describe her as warm, kind, calm and direct. She is passionate about helping her clients create better lives, identify their own strengths, and providing therapy that is both compassionate and practical.

My approach to therapy is to meet my clients where they are. Depression, Stress, Anxiety. Navigating through life transitions can be challenging. Nobody wants to face these challenges alone. Having support can help you to weather the storm and regain the strength that you need to not only survive, but THRIVE. Therapy was once a taboo subject, but today your ability to recognize that you need support is applauded! Welcome to the pathway of becoming the best version of you as well as gaining the necessary coping skills to navigate life's challenges.

The pain you are feeling and thinking is not your fault and it is not a sign of weakness. You do not have to suffer. There is help AND there is hope. Our first hour together is free and you have time to ask questions, to see if you feel safe and comfortable working together. If this is your first time and you are a bit hesitant (as I was), or you feel therapy did not work before, I am here and happy to sit with you and answer your questions and help you find some peace.

As far as others know you are doing just fine, but inside you are bombarded by feelings of fear, shame, and sadness. Even though you are able to function enough to get by, you're exhausted by the endless thoughts about not getting it "right". You've built a wall to protect yourself from being hurt by others. You're stuck reliving past failures in parenting, work, and romantic relationships. When you think of reaching out for help you're scared that if you take down that wall you will come undone.

The journey starts NOW......Therapy is a process through which you work one-on-one or in a group setting with a trained therapist—in a safe, caring, and confidential environment—to explore your feelings, beliefs, or behaviors. We encourage you to work through challenging or influential memories, identify aspects of your life that you would like to change, better understand yourself and others, set personal goals, and work toward desired change..... Let us BEGIN!
