Therapists in Atlanta, GA

Welcome, my name is Yvette and as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) I’ve spent the past 15 years in a variety of clinical setting including county jails, superior courts, psychiatric hospital, pediatric hospitals, and community agencies helping people to identify sources of their distress and develop solutions to complex problems. Depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, family dysfunction, intimacy, codependency, and addiction are the focus of my practice with adults, teens, and families, though I have also provided crisis intervention and psychotherapy as well.

Are you ready to journey within in order to create real & lasting change in your life? My purpose as your therapist is to help you better understand yourself in order to make the changes you desire in your life. We all have dreams, goals, desires, ideas & ambitions but sometimes getting ourselves across that finish line is challenging. These challenges can exist for a variety of reasons such as trauma, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship conflicts, family dynamics, career dissatisfaction & many more. If you're ready and open to do the deeper mind-body-spirit work, then let's connect!

Struggling to find balance in your life? Between the demands of school, career, home, and family, it can seem nearly impossible to manage the stress, emotions, and responsibilities that accompany these daily. With CBT and mindfulness-based approaches, living a gratifying life is possible. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples, providing skills and helping them integrate these skills into their daily lives to build a life worth living. Finding and maintaining balance is a crux in achieving the life you want to live. Allow me to help you attain your goals.

If life demonstrates anything, it's that change is truly our only constant. Yet, dealing with the change and managing the multitude of things which are thrown at us can seem completely impossible and unmanageable. It is possible, it is manageable, and sometimes we need some extra support to figure it out and truly heal.

I can help you explore & discover a sense of peace and tranquility by establishing coping skills, empowerment & developing treatment goals! You are just a few steps away from your transformation and living out your best version of self!

My approach is supportive, kind, and powerful as you and I journey together on your path to healing.

I am invested in helping individuals & couples navigate the challenges & milestones that surface in serious dating, pre-engagement, engagement, and married relationships. I am a certified facilitator for several evidence-based relationship-building inventory programs that help reduce vulnerability of a failed relationship.

I help intentional couples build resilient bonds by more deeply understanding one another through learning & practicing tools to enrich their relationship.

Finding the right practitioner; when it comes to your emotional, mental, and spiritual health needs; can be challenging because you may not know what you should be considering during this search. Select a professional who is not only compassionate and passionate about their work and the people they serve, but also someone who knows the element of strength and perseverance personally. Stress can have a huge impact on the way we function in the various domains of our lives and this can sometimes send us down the rabbit hole of doubt. In order to truly accept yourself you must discover the elements of your becoming.

Are you in need of someone to listen to? A place where you can speak out loud your pain without feeling judged, belittled or alone? Do you find yourself at times asking why me or what is wrong with me? Do you find yourself feeling confused, angry, sad, anxious, stuck. Do you get triggered and react in a manner in where you wished you didn't? Do you find yourself alone again with nobody to share your life with? Do you isolate yourself when things don't go right?

Melinda’s person-centered approach to trauma recovery honors the strength and resilience of survivors. She views her clients as experts of their experiences and believes in the body’s natural capacity to heal from trauma & stress-related conditions. She uses approaches including EMDR and clinical hypnosis to ensure her clients remain present and grounded throughout the therapeutic session. Traumatic memory is painlessly reprocessed and stored in the “done file.” Negative thoughts, behaviors, and emotions are eliminated since they are no longer necessary for survival. What remains is increased presence, self-compassion and growth.
