Seeking therapy can feel a little daunting, or maybe even embarrassing, but you're making the right choice. Have you been struggling with grief or loss? Do you find it hard to stay happy even though you have achieved a lot? Have you discovered an unresolved trauma that needs healing? Are you experiencing anxiety in unmanageable ways? Or do you just want help letting go of things that are keeping you "stuck?" I think I can help with that.

Hi! I'm Rachel. I work with teens and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, perfectionism, neurodivergence (ADHD/Autism), sexuality, and gender. Whether you're figuring out who you are, unlearning old messages, or trying to thrive in a world that feels like it's not built for you, I hope that we can work together to create a safe space to explore all of that. I celebrate all the unique identities, values, and lived experiences (LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, kinky, etc.) that you bring into therapy. I am committed to upholding values of social justice and fostering advocacy within systems of oppression.

Having been trained in a humanistic/holistic model of therapy (Experiential, Gestalt, Psychodynamic, Family Systems), I have adhered to what is now called an “integrative” approach to mental health issues. Specifically, when I engage with a client we focus on the interaction of all the dimensions of his or her life, i.e., biological, psychological, social, behavioral, and spiritual. Subsequently, we embark on an exciting journey together to explore a path that leads to a more optimal state of well-being and a greater sense of wholeness.

In my counseling practice, I prioritize creating a safe, empathic, and non-judgmental space for healing. By fostering such an environment, I believe clients feel safe to explore and tap into their inherent potential for leading meaningful lives. Having studied Ayurvedic wellness at the Tanman Ayurvedic Research Centre in India, I take a holistic approach to mental health, recognizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, emotion, and spirit. I blend this with evidence-based Western practices to comprehensively support my clients. This integration leads to mental wellness and growth.

I believe our relationships provide the most important, and often the most difficult, ways to learn about ourselves and others. Healing damaged relationships and developing intimacy requires honesty, self-esteem, trust and hard work. As we age, life transitions like career changes, divorce after 50 and planning for retirement bring new opportunities and anxieties. Get the support and encouragement you need to confront the root causes of the behaviors that trigger anxiety, depression, fear and addiction. Together we will develop a plan that is clear, focused and achievable - so that you can become the person you truly want to be.

It can be difficult to open up and talk about your life stressors to someone you don’t know. Sometimes we can feel unheard or alone and just need someone who can be a helping, nonjudgmental, and listening ear. The hardest part can be finding the words to express ourselves and process what can feel like a jumbled mess and you just need someone to help put the scattered puzzle pieces together to create a beautiful picture. Aristotle said it best, “Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.” I can help with building coping skills, work on effective communication, self-expression, processing trauma/grief, and mindfulness.

I am a relational psychotherapist, which means that I believe relationships (with family, friends, coworkers, higher powers, our relationship with our self, etc.) often play a role in our suffering and, yet, also play a crucial role in our healing. Relatedly, the relationship between the therapist and client is of utmost importance and requires trust and authenticity for both parties involved. In my work with clients, I use a variety of individualized, eclectic approaches to help each person meet their goals and needs. My therapeutic style is warm, direct, empowering, and collaborative.

I’m Dr. Brandon, a therapist practicing in the State of Georgia. My approach to therapy is grounded in evidence-based practices, designed to help you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that may be impacting your mental health. But therapy is very dynamic and doesn't have to be all serious! As someone who loves to laugh and believes in the healing power of humor, I also incorporate a healthy dose of levity into my sessions. In fact, research has shown that laughter can boost mood, reduce stress, and strengthen our immune systems.
