Therapists in Atlanta, GA

Providing multicultural mental health and addiction treatment. Especializing in trauma, anxiety and depression. Bilingual (Spanish/English).

I have worked in a variety of settings and had the experience of working with individuals and families struggling with substance abuse, sexuality/intimacy, stress management, communication, depression, anxiety, and LGBTQ issues. I also had the pleasure of working with the unique challenges faced by our Veteran and Active-Duty military families.

I have Bachelor’s in both English Literature and Psychology from the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and earned Master’s in both Clinical Community Counseling and School Counseling at University of Tennessee, Chattanooga, where I now moonlight as an adjunct professor of Family Counseling for their graduate program. I have been practicing for 14 years, specializing in CBT, music therapy, art therapy, play therapy, family therapy, individual therapy, and alternative therapies. I enjoy working with all ages and backgrounds.

I work with individuals, couples, families and groups, specializing in anxiety, trauma, codependency, self-esteem, narcissistic abuse recovery, couples counseling, premarital counseling, Christian counseling and family issues. I am an award-winning author of the book, "Where's My Hair? A Trichotillomania Story for Children" and founder of My Pain His Purpose Ministries. If you are located in CO, TN or GA and have found yourself in unhealthy relationships, experience high levels of anxiety, have experienced recent or past trauma, struggle with self-esteem or self-worth, relationship issues or need premarital counseling, I can help.

Throughout my years of practice, I have worked in hospital, community mental health, and college counseling settings as a diagnostician, group, couples, and individual therapist. And during this time I have developed my specialty working with LGBTQIA & POC communities as well as trauma exposed populations and people struggling with grief, identity development, family rejection, sexual dysfunction, commutation difficulties, and relationship difficulties.

Trying to keep up with everything is getting to be too much. The projects at work or maintaining a business have become challenging. The chores and the to-do list have gotten longer. The kids have yet another event scheduled and you are not in the mood to cook dinner. Not only that, your mental health has suffered due to past trauma or stressors, leaving your relationships in shambles, your goals left undone, your mood on a constant rollercoaster, and your needs last on the list. I know this story all too well because I am not afraid to admit, I’ve been where you are. I get it and you’re ready to shift out of it.

Making the decision to seek help is the first step to realizing that you have the power and choice to create the life you desire. Work can be stressful, school can be hard, raising children is challenging and relationships change. All these challenges can have an intense impact on your mood, thoughts and motivation to participate in daily activities. It is the passion of SSA Counseling to meet you where you are and help you get to where you want to be, to find resolution regardless to what that may look like.

Do you wish you had someone to talk to who won't judge you? Do you try to talk to your friends but they only half listen or push their own agenda? Are you hiding part of yourself because you are afraid of what people will think or say? Do you feel anxious or distracted? Does your mind race all the time? Do you feel sad or like you don't care anymore? Do you just wish someone could help you straighten out your thoughts? Do you have issues from your past that are affecting your present? Do you just wish you liked yourself more? Do you just want someone you can talk to about anything? Send me an email and hopefully we can work together

Are you struggling with the courage to move forward? Should you pursue another career path, change professions or enroll in school? Do you ever think what if it doesn't work out? What if I fail? Am I too old? If you have asked yourself any of these questions, you have come to right place. Welcome! We have all asked ourselves at least one of those questions at some point. However, if the thought of one of questions paralyzes you so much that you become unwilling to move forward, then you may need a little nudge to get you going!

Are you are struggling with your self esteem? Have you experienced depression or anxiety that has affected your relationships, sexual health, and intimacy? Are you experiencing infertility or other grief and confusion related to conception, pregnancy or post partum? I want to recognize this pain that you may be feeling and provide some tools for you to improve your mental health and self-value.

Just so you know, my eyes don't see the person you used to be, I only see the person you are fighting to become! This defines the work I do daily with my clients. The willingness to face things you want to change, is all it takes. Fear is expected as change comes, however we can BUILD a toolbox of coping skills to diminish the fear & anxiety you have. I will support you with empathy & compassion along the pathway to healing. Peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart. Peace in your soul is obtainable, let me help you

Your problems may be specific - a challenging relationship, sexual concerns, upsetting memories, or problem behaviors. Or your struggles may be less tangible - feeling lost, detached, or stuck. In my practice, I offer adult and couples therapy for a range of concerns. I specialize in treating sexual dysfunctions, trauma-related issues, relationship concerns, and problem behaviors. I also provide gender & sexual identity affirming care. I deeply enjoy helping individuals feel a greater sense of self-efficacy, confidence, and clarity in their lives.

My ideal clients are millennial individuals who find themselves struggling to get what they need out of relationships with others. Whether that relationship is with a parent, peer or significant other, their goals are to set new boundaries, develop healthier habits and learn effective communication and conflict resolution skills in order to verbalize and ultimately have their needs met within the relationship. My ideal clients are also individuals/couples struggling with issues surrounding sexuality. I am pleased to work with cisgender and LGBTQ+ identifying, and those identifying with or looking to explore alt relationship styles.

I am a Black queer cis woman. I hold space as a guide and a supporter. I strive to make therapy accessible with clear, direct communication, warm energy, and pre-emptive radically inclusive stance. I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the Smith College School for Social Work. As a master-level social worker, I am currently pursuing my licensure in the state of Georgia under supervision at Heartwork. At Heartwork Counseling Center, we do not take insurance. We do offer a sliding scale. Our regular fee is $150.

Hello! My name is Nasia and I am currently a therapist intern with Inspired by Grace located in Atlanta, Georgia. As a therapist intern I am completing my required hours in order to be licensed. I have worked in the field of mental health since 2014 and plan to continue in the field to help my clients reach their full potential. My main areas of focus are assisting in meeting goals that have been set back, working through relationships, personal development, or navigating the everyday challenges that life may bring. I offer a space rooted in compassion, empathy, and respect.

Does it feel like you're constantly trying to cross things off your to-do list that just continues to grow? Maybe doing basic tasks like cleaning up your kitchen, or even getting out of bed in the morning feels like the hardest thing ever. I love working with individuals who feel like they may be living with ADHD. As you get older, it might seem like life gets harder and the accommodations don't follow. Many of us need to learn to work with our brains and not against it. This looks different for everyone and my hope is to help you find ways to better understand yourself and what you need in order to accomplish your goals.

Are you struggling with transitioning into new roles and overwhelmed with responsibilities as a new parent? Do you find yourself feeling alone or pressured to follow society’s high expectational stigma of what it means to be a good parent? Want to rekindle your relationship and sex life with your partner after the adjustment of having a baby but not sure where to start? Do you experience low desire or sexual struggles when it comes to sex, or even find it a “chore” to check off your list?

My ideal client is seeking healing, guidance, and spiritual growth. They may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship issues, and are in need of support and encouragement. Their goal is to find peace, joy, and purpose in their life through a deeper connection with God. They want to understand themselves better, overcome past hurts, and live a life aligned with their faith and values. They desire to experience emotional and spiritual wholeness, and to cultivate a sense of hope and fulfillment in their journey.

Sex and relationship problems can feel overwhelming and sometime even painful... AND they're hard to talk about! Then those problems start causing MORE problems in other parts of your life. BUT, what would it be like if you had the sexual relationship you wanted? or the intimacy you wanted? I provide a supportive, safe, non-judgmental, and private space for you to talk about the problems and pains without fear of judgment, shame, or guilt. If you're in a place where you're starting to feel like "I gotta do something," then call me now: 678.498.1465.
