Therapists in Marietta, GA

My career in counseling started with inpatient stabilization and treatment settings treating all ages in both mental health and addiction. These experiences combined with my own life experience qualify me to help you learn and grow in a non-judgmental atmosphere that will encourage positive thinking and solution focused change. Wellness is all about removing the obstacles that keep you from your true self. I want you to imagine what it would be like to wake up and feel free of the mental anguish that comes from not knowing how to break the debilitating thinking and behavior patterns that govern your life. Feels pretty great, right?

As we navigate various stages of life, it can be easy to lose our connection to ourselves and others. This loss of connection can manifest in various ways, such as anxiety, depression, and/or relationships strains. No matter the form, therapy can be a place where you can recover this connection. My priority is to convey and create a sense of safety for you. Providing a warm, nonjudgemental space as we navigate your patterns and hardships is essential. I will attend to your physical, social, and mental health as we navigate treatment. By attending to all of these areas I hope you feel supported and seen in our time together.

Greetings ! As a psychologist with almost 40 years of experience, I divide my professional time between providing psychotherapy & conducting psychological evaluations. My goal is to provide an emotionally safe therapeutic environment where patients feel comfortable working on personal challenges & recovering from painful experiences. While people often seek the assistance of a psychologist at a point where they are feeling vulnerable, I focus on identifying areas of personal strength and fostering a sense of self-efficacy so that they may feel more confident & in control of their lives.

As a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, I believe just as much therapeutic work should be done outside of therapy as within counseling sessions. Being fully invested in the therapeutic process is key to positive outcomes. Clients are expected to be fully present during therapy sessions and open to experimenting with a variety of techniques to assist with identifying how thoughts, feelings, and situations contribute to maladaptive behaviors.

Hi, I’m Shaunesse Bell. I work with adolescents and adults to better manage depression, anxiety and socialization issues. Feeling misunderstood or disconnected by family and peers can lead to isolation and unhealthy behaviors. Learning to better regulate emotions, stay focused, and cope with challenges is key to feeling better. I support my client to develop new communication skills to thrive in school, work, and the home environment.

My ideal client is one navigating anxiety and depression seeking inner peace, mental health skills, and understanding of their behaviors. They are motivated by personal growth, are open-minded and resilient, and actively seek strategies to manage their mental well-being while maintaining life balance. Their determination to understand triggers, coupled with a desire for empathetic support, makes them poised to embark on a transformative journey toward mental wellness.

My passion is working with people and bringing creativity to emotional expression and learning. I have over 10 years of professional experience assisting clients with coping with difficult emotions, increasing constructive communication, building positive relationships; and navigating life after traumatic or life changing events. It is my goal to meet you where you are in your journey and offer a safe and trusting environment for healing, growth, and learning.

I work with children, adolescents and adults. With a focus on teen girls and women's issues, social and generalized anxiety, relationships, self esteem, confidence, identity, life transitions, healthy boundaries, effective communication, self compassion, coping skills, trauma and survivors of domestic violence.

Discovering oneself in this fast-paced society that feeds on comparison and the next best thing can seem like a hopeless challenge. Everything is constantly changing around us just as we seem to get our footing. This can lead us to feeling defeated, unqualified, and exhausted. In these times it is important to rediscover yourself or maybe meet yourself for the first time. Having someone to walk with you and truly listen to your process, thoughts, values, and beliefs can be foundational in this discovery and healing process.

I am a bilingual, Latina counselor with a humanistic approach to therapy rooted in both Eastern and Western theories, techniques, and philosophies. I use a wide array of modalities to fit the individual needs of each of my clients, who are mostly working through trauma, abuse, depression, anxiety, religious trauma, cult recovery, weight issues, body image issues, self-worth, self-esteem, and self efficacy issues.

If you want a different kind of experience with someone who is open-minded, accepting, warm, and challenging, I can help. We all have a story that's influenced by everything that has happened in our lives, and we are each in charge of the way that story unfolds. I love to use stories, myths, and visual analogies in my work. Let's work on yours together!

Life is filled with choices. Sometimes it appears as though the choices actually resemble a cyclic journey full of stress, hurt, pain, fear, anger and frustration. My goal is to meet clients right where they are in their journey! My approach is to maintain an open, supportive and non-judgmental atmosphere that empowers clients to unveil the source and navigate their journey towards change. I desire to be the voice that speaks a reminder to clients, just as Carl Jung once stated: "I am not what has happened to me. I am what I choose to become."

Hello, welcome! Hola, bienvenidos! Why therapy? There are many answers to this question. It's a question I will ask when we first begin and you may or may not fully know the answer. If you are unsure at first, that’s okay. I promise we will figure it out together and by the end of our work you will have discovered why therapy was exactly what you needed in this moment of your life. And if you come to me knowing exactly what you need and why therapy is the way forward, I promise we will work very hard together so that you achieve what you desire.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative, supportive, and flexible. As your therapist, I would help support and guide you to lay new foundations in your life, whether it be coping skills or increased self- esteem, to start new transitions in life or finally address the past. I have experience using various modalities to address an array of challenges that children, youth, and adults may be struggling with and would love to join you on your journey to a healthier you.
