Therapists in Rockdale, Atlanta, GA

I believe that in today's technologically driven world counseling can provide a safe place where we can slow down to become aware of the present moment. Through counseling, clients can explore their current life situation and begin to deal effectively with the circumstances they are facing. Counseling can also provide tools for change, but even more, it can be a springboard to begin identifying some of the factors that have led to the current situation. I work with individuals and couples as well as lead pre-marital workshops.

I am the CEO and Founder of Joie de Vivre Counseling and Therapy. I hold a master’s degree in Professional Counseling and have over 14 years of clinical experience. I am passionate about helping women transform how they feel about themselves, their intimate relationships and living a more deeply authentic and meaningful life. Working collaboratively I will assist you in finding your voice, stepping fully into wisdom and empower you to create a life of passion and purpose. For women who struggle with anxiety my approach combines integrative mind-body techniques with cognitive behavioral therapy, and a strengths-based approach.

Is everything feeling just a bit too heavy at the moment? Whether it's the weight of the present moment, past trauma, relationship problems, or wanting to let go and grow, I can help. As your therapist, we'll face the "hard truths" necessary to free you from the painful experiences holding you back from the life you dream of living together. I work with individuals, couples, and families - both traditional and non-traditional. I also make frequent appearances on television and radio programs throughout the country. Client's call my office, "The Sanctuary," because it's a "judgement free zone," designed for healing hearts and minds.

Are you feeling lost? Overwhelmed? Frustrated? Are you experiencing life transitions that seem to be out of control? Despite your educational/financial successes, are your relationships seemingly fractured or falling apart? Has your motivation waned? Are you tired of maintaining a façade? Did you answer 'Yes' to any of the previous questions? Asking for help is difficult but it is a courageous and important first step toward realizing the healing, growth and wholeness for which you're longing. You deserve encouragement while working toward accomplishing your personal goals, support in navigating through disappointments, deeper personal relationships, and achieving meaning and purpose in your life.

Are you struggling to navigate your sexual and emotional needs in your relationships? Are you looking for a safe and accepting space to discuss your unique challenges and explore ways to deepen your connection with your partner or partners? Hi, I'm Myles Hassler, and I'm so glad you're here! I'm a certified sex therapist, specializing in couples counseling, consensual nonmonogamy & polyamorous relationships, the LGBTQIA+ community, and heterosexual orientations alike. Sex and intimacy are important parts of any relationship, and I believe that everyone deserves to have fulfilling and satisfying sexual and relatinship experiences.

I have been working in Drug & Alcohol Counseling for over 30 years, I started in the Military and continued to work in counseling after I retired. In addition to conducting individual and group counseling, I am a Certified to teach the Georgia DUI/Substance Abuse Classes. This is a mandatory class that is required for anyone who is charged with a DUI or have been involved in a alcohol or other substance abuse related incident. My ideal client is anyone with a dual diagnoses. I specialize in conducting intervention that will assist the client in seeking help for Substance Abuse.

I enjoy seeing adult and teen clients who are working on issues related to eating, mood regulation, anxiety reduction, trauma, and/or self-improvement. I have also worked at an outpatient eating disorder center since 2006. I have an eclectic approach to therapy that incorporates skills like Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), as well as looking at the best fit and goals for the client. I include humor and a deep understanding of people's need to be heard and work on themselves. I enjoy helping to guide someone in their own best path.

You wake up feeling overwhelmingly paralyzed knowing that you have this never-ending “to-do” list that never seems to get done? You’re struggling to connect with your partner, family, and friends, and even yourself now that you are a mom. You feel stagnated, unhappy in the current space you are in. You're a new mom trying to find your community and your identity. It seems like everyone else just “gets it” or “has it” and you are just trying to make it.

Life can be hard! Sometimes life deals us a set of circumstances that we aren’t sure how to navigate. Sometimes life is just confusing, and it can be hard to make sense of it all. You may find yourself asking questions like “how did I get here” and “how do I move forward”. There is where counseling could come in as a tool-- one of the biggest benefits of therapy is having a safe place to share how you are really doing and feeling.

If life is feeling hard or you're just feeling stuck, I'm here to walk alongside you and help you determine what you need next. I believe deeply in this process of therapy and in creating a warm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can feel free to be and express themselves fully. Maybe you are dealing with relationship concerns, overwhelming anxiety or feelings of sadness and despair. Perhaps you have unresolved trauma or childhood pain, or experience feelings of detachment or impulsivity. Maybe you feel a little lost and are looking to find your voice and your purpose.

It is an honor to do the sacred work of therapy with each client I work with in my practice. I specialize in helping women navigate issues related to anxiety disorders, depression, trauma, pregnancy/postpartum and grief so that they can attain a greater sense of peace, hope and courage to live their life well. I also see couples who are in need of help navigating complexities of relationship through building healthy communication & conflict resolution skills while exploring and facilitating healing in root areas of pain in a warm and directive environment.

You’re starting to feel like no one knows what you are really going through inside, because on the outside everything is all put together. It feels like you have to perform or wear a mask to make it through the day because everyone views you as strong and successful. You’ve spent so much of your life working towards a goal (maybe a degree, maybe a career, maybe a relationship), but now that you’re here it still feels like something is missing. You're stating to question some of the things you were taught about life and yourself from a young age, and you've grown tired of living up to expectations that you never set for yourself.

I specialize in helping individuals and couples to shift from an insecure to secure attachment style. A person struggling with insecure attachment experiences anxiety, avoidance, or both, making it difficult to create and maintain close relationships. This is most often due to past experiences that have yet to be processed and resolved, so they block the way to adult relationship success and lead to repeating patterns. Developing a secure attachment style allows you to confidently be yourself, set healthy boundaries, implement self-care, and build healthy platonic and romantic connection for a greater quality of life.

I am currently NOT accepting clients. I specialize in treating trauma, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, Bipolar disorder, and stressful life transitions. I utilize a proactive and dynamic approach to therapy. I am also accepting new LMSW/LCSW supervisees virtually throughout Georgia! I offer groups, individual, and paired supervision. I have experience supervising LMSWs who are working in schools, hospitals, hospice, jails, inpatient, community programs, DFCS, IOP/PHP, non-profit, and group private practice. I also provide a safe place for LGBTQIA+ individuals and those in nontraditional relationships.

Are you experiencing any level of anxiety or experiencing life challenging issues? Or, are you experiencing challenges in your relationship or having a difficult time in coping with today's climate? Life is full of challenges, and if you've been looking for a therapist who is empathetic and who can integrate a spiritual framework in the counseling process - look no further.

Hi! As a therapist, it is my privilege and passion to work with individuals and families to overcome challenging relationships, life stressors, losses, and trauma histories. I believe in a collaborative, person-centered, and strength-based perspective. Through individualized treatment, I work to support clients and help them move forward from situations disrupting their functioning. When they don’t believe they can, I will believe for them while they learn new coping and mindfulness skills to heal and grow.

Often, life's challenges get in the way of us reaching our fullest potential. If you are struggling to manage the highs and lows, you are not alone. I believe in the importance and healing powers of human relationships. My passion is helping individuals, couples, and families strengthen and preserve the bonds with the people who hold the most meaning in their lives. Through the process, my clients are given the space and support to reveal more authentic, embodied versions of themselves.

Are you looking for a place to work through trauma's impact, heal amidst anxiety, and find peace as your authentic self? I would be honored to cultivate space for you to share your story and be met with compassion. Seeking out therapy is courageous and rewarding. I believe everyone can benefit from therapy, as we all face challenges in this life. My vision is to journey with clients as we lean into the truths that our stories and experiences are valid, and finding compassion for our imperfections is often where we find our greatest strength.
