Teletherapy for Atlanta, GA

Are you dealing with the loss of a loved one? You’re balancing caregiving, and feeling anxious. Your friends or family want to be supportive, but they don't know how. You want to feel prepared, but don’t know how? Maybe you’ve already lost someone you love- a family member, a friend, a partner, a pet? Are you struggling to find a new path forward? Or maybe you just received a cancer diagnosis? Alternatively, are you feeling stuck in a relationship with a family member, friend, or partner? Do you keep repeating toxic relationship patterns and you're not sure why? You're exhausted and looking for a new perspective?

If you are struggling with stress, worry/anxiety/fear, health and wellness issues, cancer diagnosis/recovery, grief, life changes, workplace challenges, relationship issues or personal growth, I am here to support and guide you in feeling your best and performing at your best. My Master's degree is in Counseling Psychology. As a Coach of forty (40) years, I have learned strategies that tend to create lasting changes. My commitment to you is to listen non-judgmentally and guide you with ideas and practices that I have seen work successfully over many years. You deserve to feel your best and live at your best!

It is important to find a therapist you connect with. My clients find that my warm and compassionate approach to therapy makes it easy to connect with me. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and AASECT certified sex therapist (CST), I counsel couples looking to improve their relationship, find ways to re-connect and build a healthier, more satisfying relationship. I specialize in working with individuals and couples experiencing sexual difficulties such as low/high sexual desire, painful sex (i.e. vaginismus, vulvodynia, etc.), orgasm difficulties, and intimacy issues after cancer.

Welcome to therapy! You may be asking yourself what is it that I’m feeling and who can I trust to process these feelings with? If you’ve found this page, that also means you’re looking for change in your life and I might just be the therapist to help you find it! I'm a LMSW with my Master's degree in Social Work. Personally, I've been in Atlanta long enough to identify as a native and hold other important titles such as daughter, mom, and post-cancer thriver. I’ve developed a niche for working with clients who may be struggling with significant medical diagnoses while also working heavily in case managing military veterans/families.

At each stage, we face different challenges that can be tough to move throughout. I specialize in treating adults during transitions and adjustments through life. Being an adolescent is tough, but what about that decade or a few after? Emerging adults at the crossroads of life, love, and career. Women transforming into mothers, that perinatal and postpartum rollercoaster right into parenting. A difficult health diagnosis where you have to explore what your new life is. At all these crossroads, we can get anxiety and depression, or feel paralyzed with fear or loss, and at anytime, any of these feelings can bubble up and over.

I have been practicing as a Family Therapist for 40+ years. My clients are families, couples, divorced parents with parenting issues, blended families. I also see individuals who have issues related to depression, anxiety and family of origin struggles. I specialize in working with adoptive families, people who are interested in adoption and adoptees. I am an adoptive parent. I work with families dealing with adult children who have a hard time separating and multi-generational families with issues in the larger family system. Lastly, I am a cancer survivor and work with families struggling with health issues.

Are you stressed and overwhelmed by your health, your day-to-day life, or your relationships? Life can be difficult for each of us at some point in time, in ways unique to our own circumstance. My goal is to help adults through the tough chapters, moving into better chapters with additional tools to handle challenges and stresses. I don't view people as being broken or needing fixing. We all need someone with whom to sort things through who isn't part of our day-to-day mix. Leave (FMLA) or disability forms cannot be completed for clients who have not been in therapy 12 weeks.

If you're seeking growth, growth will be inevitable. I enjoy the thrill of witnessing my clients recognize their potential and take charge of their lives, perhaps for the very first time. When your life improves, I am deeply moved, and thankful. And, because I am a practical person, your therapy will have a beginning, a middle, and an end, so you can get on with the pleasure of creating a wonderful life. I promise to be an unwavering ally along the way.

Oh how I loved everybody else when I finally got to talk about myself. - Dar Williams. This practice provides a space for clients to feel safe enough to take off the mask without judgement. What about the anxious, depressed, angry, shamed and stuck parts of ourselves? They desire to be seen as well. I am here to stand witness with you. I work with women, particularly women of color, and the men who love them. I am proudly LGBTQ allied. I work with individuals and couples. All are welcome.

“And how do you feel about that!?” ---Says every TV comedy-bit depicting therapy. In reality, it can be intimidating to share our true feelings with another person- especially with a (virtual) stranger. In therapy sessions, I therefore create a warm, safe, empathetic, non-judgmental, space to unpack your story. I view you as an expert on yourself and will encourage you to honor your own inner wisdom. I value processing your unique context and how intersectional identities and structures of oppression contribute to your distress.  My goal is to illuminate the root causes of your pain and to help guide you towards healing and growth.

My calling is to serve children and adults who deal with a variety of emotional and behavioral imbalances due to psychological trauma or other stressors. As a trauma and DBT-certified therapist, I work with my clients toward the restoration of their emotional wellness by integrating aspects of trauma-focused cognitive behavioral (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapies (DBT), as well as ART therapy, play therapy, and mind-body practices. I also provide court-ordered reunification therapy, group therapy, and clinical diagnostic evaluations and assessments. Currently offering FREE clinical assessment for self-pay therapy clients.

ANXIETY ISN'T A LIFE SENTENCE. SEEKING smart successful adults & older adolescents who are struggling with anxiety - to the point they are feeling uncomfortable, having trouble making decisions or see their ability to concentrate and work sliding away. Anxiety comes out of a lot of felt experiences: grief, loss, effects of trauma, medical conditions & illnesses, imposter syndrome, abuse; and show up in a lot of different ways: compulsive behaviors, trouble sleeping, panic attacks, pain, stomach upset, and self-doubt. Sweetgrass Integrative Counseling and Therapy can help you regain control and ease in your life.

Have you found yourself challenged with feelings of overwhelm, anxiousness, and sadness related to life transitions? Are you experiencing difficulties in your intimate or family relationships that you wish to overcome? Ineffective communication contributes to increased conflict causing more stress and potentially negatively impacting various aspects of your life. Depression, anxiety, anger, and trauma do not have to be your norm. Strengthening interpersonal skills and finding effective methods to cope with stressors is essential to attain overall wellness and develop a fulfilling life that includes peace and empowerment.

Stress, anxiety and relationship challenges can be overwhelming. Sometimes it feels like it's too much to face on your own.

With over 20 years counseling people of all ages and my tool-box of therapeutic resources and techniques, you can experience relief from stress and anxiety and have hope for better days ahead. And if after we meet if it feels I'm not the right therapist for you, I'll help you find the one that is.

Having issues with an addiction, if your court mandated for mental health, anger managment, theft management or domistic violence then you'll need a certificate to show your probation or parole. I provide services for individual's seeking legal compliance and want to get out of trouble with the law. You will learn healthy ways to deal with anger and theft as well as its triggers. You will learn to identify urges and cravings and when you're becoming angry, understanding why, and finding constructive ways to express yourself instead of acting out.

Maybe you are ready to make a shift and looking for a safe space and meaningful therapeutic process to support you. Let's see if I am the right fit for you....I am easy to talk to, warm and authentic. You will feel it when you sit with me. I will support you as you (re)learn to trust yourself and cultivate the ability to listen closely to what you already know. My orientation is grounded in the belief that we are all born into this world with an innate ability to know deeply what we need. We develop layers of protection to survive this world, and I am here to help you get back to who you truly are.

Sometimes we seem to have it all together on the outside but are suffering on the inside. Many of my clients are dealing with general "life management problems”, while others are dealing with depression, anxiety, or something you can't quite name. Combat veterans with mental health issues can be very hidden. Often, their spouses and partners are suffering as well. I work with the loved ones of combat veterans.

If you are living with chronic pain or a chronic illness, you’re probably frustrated by trying to explain the hard parts to other people in your life that just don’t get it, the ones who make you feel like “it’s all in your head”. I’m here to tell you that it’s not in your head…it’s real, and it can have a really big impact on your life. You might miss the way things were before your pain or illness; you might not even feel like the same person anymore. I know, because I've lived it. The sadness, loneliness, and constant worry that comes along with managing pain and illness is real, but it doesn’t have to be permanent.
