I am a Licensed Professional Counselor practicing, as a therapist for five years with children and adolescents. I specialize in treatment for suicidal behavior/thoughts, anxiety, depression, self harm behaviors, PTSD, behavioral issues, and interpersonal conflicts. I offer DBT treatment in both the individual setting, as well, as in the group setting (co-leading a DBT group). I am happy to work with clients who have had trouble resolving these issues for a period of time and are open to a DBT approach.

It is human to get lost and feel isolated at times, but from an evolutionary perspective, humans weren't built to heal in isolation. Stress, grief, and life transitions are all normal, but how we navigate them can determine whether anxiety, depression, or isolation follow. My nonjudgmental, research-informed approach supports clients in healing through diligent practice, secure connection, mutual respect, and clear-eyed self-reflection. Clients are safe to explore their full selfhood, to view challenge as a normal part of growth, to learn concrete tools for comfort and safety, and to grow secure and joyous in their authentic selves.

I provide therapy for people experiencing anxiety, depression, issues with behavior and relationships. Many of my clients have found me during times of transition with their partners, at work, or within their family. I most often work with adults, and individuals from diverse backgrounds. In sessions, we explore a number a number of topics, including early experiences that are the foundation for how we understand ourselves and build relationships later in life. I hope my clients find therapy with me as a safe place to explore patterns, expand awareness, and make change.

Seeking a blank canvas, a script that ignites daily inspiration? As the artist of your own narrative, you have the ability to bring vibrancy into your existence, triumph over anxiety self-doubt and depression, and rediscover joy. You deserve a life adorned with sparkle, purpose, and passion. I blend a palette of CBT, holistic practices, music therapy and trauma-focused therapy, crafting a transformative path to healing and self-discovery. Imagine mixing colors on a canvas to create a masterpiece of growth and well-being. Embracing our authentic selves and nurturing self-awareness can lead to inner peace and fulfillment.

At times things can become so overwhelming that it can create one developing unhealthy habits such as overeating, arguments in relationships, and difficulties at work. There are also cultural factures that can hinder mental health growth, and learning how to appropriately incorporate some cultural practices in therapy can be beneficial. Being a single parent, serious medical diagnosis, self-esteem, and major transitions, can also cause a lot of distress, and learning how to apply distress tolerance and using interpersonal effectiveness tools for a healthy communication can help reduce/decrease symptoms of depression and anxiety.

Accepting new clients. As a committed Licensed Professional Counselor in Atlanta, GA, your well-being and mental strength is my number one priority. I’m happy to guide you through all of life’s challenges with the attention and care you deserve. My primary population ages are 3 and up, and older adults confronting life's changes; with extensive training in working with adults. The area of tough life challenges, and healing has always been a focus of mine; and with training in individual therapy, group therapy, and sound healing, I have been able to help a variety of individuals that I have crossed paths with, young and older.

Do you have issues managing and balancing life as a result of anxiety, depression, or work stress? Does your child need assistance with focus and managing tasks? We all need support. I help my clients move from hopelessness to hopefulness in every area of their lives. I am committed to working with individuals (children, adolescents, and adults) seeking to identify their strengths and discover skills to accomplish goals or recover from life challenges. I aim to create a virtual environment that encourages self-exploration, growth, and positive change.

I am best suited for individuals or couples who recognize a pattern of self-defeating behaviors that destroy relationships and contribute to anxiety/depression. These individuals feel stuck in a seemingly never-ending cycle that may include: procrastination, busyness that leads nowhere, the exhaustion of perfectionism, feelings of rejection, loneliness, or depletion in general--all of which gets worse without intervention. Wishing that distracting issues and concerns would just go away is unproductive. My job is to make psychology applicable to everyday problem-solving and decision-making and therefore give you a reason to hope for a new reality.

I know firsthand what it feels like to show up for myself, even when I don’t feel it. As a Black woman, I understand how hard it is to live authentically in a society that makes you feel like you aren’t enough. My ideal client is someone who lives at the intersection of multiple minority identities. I enjoy helping individuals cope with stress, anxiety, depression, issues related to identity and the impact of organized religion. I prioritize Black women & Black Queer folx in my work.

From the first session, I encourage hope and inner strength in all of my clients. It is my view that all individuals have good qualities, the capability to do well, and have the desire to make changes in their lives. In addition, I believe that negative thinking has a strong effect on people's behaviors and that if they can shift their thinking in a positive manner, they will be motivated and drawn to more pleasant outcomes. I have conducted individual, family, and group therapy in areas such as major life changes, depression, anxiety, and teen issues.

I work with adults and older adolescents who are dealing with issues related to depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress, relationships, achievement and success, chronic illness, transitions, early attachment problems, self-esteem, addictions, betrayal, and general problems in living. I focus on self-acceptance and growth rather than on pathology and "change." I believe we are all in this together; I take the journey with my clients rather than thinking I know what is best for them. I think questions are often more important than answers. My motto is: Less judgment, more curiosity.

I am comfortable treating clients that are dealing with depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, grief, relationship issues, work place stress and women issues. My approach to providing therapy is to make sure that my clients feel safe. I believe that what we need is "already in us." Sometimes we just need a listening ear and support to bring it out of us.

I am L. Elizabeth Shelton, GA LPC 008242 and have been fully licensed since 2012, originally in Virginia and since 2015 in Georgia. My theoretical orientation to therapy is CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) as I believe it is critical to understand how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and drive most of the problems people struggle to overcome. I have experience working with a wide range of areas/conditions, though most often focus on helping individuals with depression, anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and trauma.

I see adolescents, young adults, and adults utilizing a variety of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to facilitate growth and change. As your therapist, I will provide a safe space for personal growth and self exploration.

My goal as a therapist is to help you discover the "TRUE" you. We will work together in a positive fashion to help you discover the source of the challenges within life. The primary goal is to work together to develop creative ways or alternatives to help you to live a healthier lifestyle allowing you to grow to your full potential. Here to help guide through that journey. Offering VIDEO and PHONE sessions at this time . Serving Douglasville in video sessions ONLY.

Working from a person-centered perspective, I believe that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important components for change. I offer an empathic space to explore your goals toward recovery. I use a variety of theoretical approaches, including CBT, existential, and interpersonal therapies. Specializing in eating disorders, I begin the therapeutic relationship by meeting clients where they are in the recovery process. I understand that the development of an eating disorder is complex, and that there is no "one size fits all" approach to treatment. I can help you learn positive coping skills and address body image, identity, and self-esteem issues.
