Trauma Focused Therapists in Carroll County, GA
Hi there! My name is Janecia (Ja-knee-see-ah) Williams. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Atlanta, GA. I have 7 years of experience providing supportive therapy and assisting clients who are navigating challenges and life transitions. My approach to therapy is to treat a client holistically and to “meet them where they are,” which means engaging with clients at their level of healing while in therapy. This includes difficulty with daily functioning, interpersonal relationships, managing symptoms, low self-esteem/confidence, or just weekly maintenance.
