Grief Therapists in Dawsonville, GA

As a therapist, I enjoy working with individuals who are experiencing life transitions (young adulthood, changes in relationship status) and utilize an integrated approach valuing the unification of body, mind and spirit. I enjoy working from a foundation of connection, with a focus on the healing properties of the therapeutic relationship. I am trained in Brainspotting and also use relaxation / visualization exercises to assist my clients in experiencing grounding during our sessions. My goal is to partner with my clients to assist them in working toward creating a meaningful life.

I consider it a privilege to walk beside my clients as we explore options and find solutions to life's challenges. Whether individuals, couples, or families, many people appreciate my positive, strength-based approach.

Feeling stuck? Wanting personal or relational healing? I am a marriage and family therapist and enjoy helping individuals, couples, or families discover new pathways of change that they were not aware of and walking that journey with them. Understanding how we may have learned to attach to others makes change more transformational than behavioral. I also seek to walk along side women struggling emotionally with the changes that occur in pregnancy and after. I am a licensed therapist and can provide in person therapy in Cumming or remotely to anyone in the state of GA

Hi everyone! My name is Lauren Wallace and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist Supervisor.

My treatments focus on helping you adjust to any traumatic event that keeps you from functioning at your best each day. I use evidence-based treatments that are emotionally focused and client-centered. I am trained and experienced in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, cognitive processing therapy, prolonged exposure therapy, talk therapy, virtual imagery, and restorative retelling. My treatments are reality-based, thought provoking, and empowering. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling positive, strong, hopeful, and relaxed.

I am a holistic and integrative counselor who is passionate about healing from the inside out. I believe when we can turn towards our inner experience, we find there the capacity, courage, and wisdom to deeply heal. When we can heal the parts of us carrying burdens, limiting beliefs, and trauma energy, it gives us the ability to fully step into our authentic selves and who we are meant to be. Sometimes we can't do this on our own and need someone to guide us and be a witness to our experience. My goal is to come alongside others as they do the hard work of healing and being in this world.

With over 33 years of personal recovery from drug and alcohol addiction, I specialize in recovery from substance use disorders, pornography addiction, sexual/intimacy issues, self-image/gender, anxiety, and depression. Individual or relationship counseling available.

As a therapist, I am dedicated to helping my clients obtain a healthier mindset and overall lifestyle. I believe beginning therapy, whether it be for you or your child, is a brave and sometimes challenging choice. I also understand therapy can be a daunting experience. I aim to make this process as comfortable as possible. Therapy should be a safe place where individuals can identify and express difficult emotions. I believe treatment should be individualized to each client, but I commonly utilize Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and I enjoy incorporating art and other expressive therapies.

Amanda offers a unique person-centered, trauma-informed approach to therapy which guides individuals to their own path to happiness. Her philosophy emphasizes the importance of individual trauma, and how it plays out in the client’s world today. The eclectic combination of Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical Behavioral, EMDR, reality based, solution focused and psychoeducation therapy interventions allow her to serve adolescents, adults, couples, and groups in a variety of mental health-related areas.

My approach to therapy is meeting clients where they are while helping them to identify specific goals for treatment. Throughout sessions, clients learn to recognize and use their own individual strengths in order to positively transform their lives. This is accomplished by using a variety of counseling modalities in a nonjudgmental approach.
