Christian Therapists in Marietta, GA

I am a passionate and professional clinician with a strong commitment to helping clients experience their very best life. I approach the therapeutic relationship as a partnership and work collaboratively with clients to help them reach their goals. I am a practicing Christian and comfortable incorporating faith based principles into my therapy practice.

Congratulations! You have made the first step in your search for hope, healing, and finding a safe place to work through life's challenges. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and enjoy working with adults who are struggling with mood swings, depression, anxiety, or other problems that are getting in the way of your quality of life and desired goals.

Amanda believes being a therapist is more than a profession it is who she is. She has always been the friend others would confide in. She considers it an honor and joy to utilize her natural gifts along w/ over a decade of clinical experience to journey with others in their stories.

I believe reaching out for help is a sign of courage and strength. With gentleness and patience, I seek to create a safe place for people to tell their stories. I work with my clients to help them better understand themselves and to see new ways of looking at issues. My specializations include: family dynamics; life transitions; spiritual issues; anxiety; depression, grief, and loss; trauma; young adults; parenting; caring for elder parents; chronic illness; and divorce recovery. I consider it an honor to work with people through the rough patches of life.

As a Multiracial Woman of Color, I have a passion for working with members of marginalized communities, including BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color). My method of therapy focuses on a personal approach that works best for each client’s personality and presenting issue. I find it a joy to help others find hope amid their pain and believe that healing happens within the context of relationships. I enjoy unraveling and getting to the root of the presenting issue. I strive to create a warm, authentic, non-judgmental environment that encourages clients to gain awareness of themselves.

I’m aware that the idea of therapy can be overwhelming, intimidating and uncomfortable. That’s why I pride myself on creating a safe place for people to be able to discuss whatever issues they are dealing with and remind them that they are not alone in this therapeutic process. I have a passion for working with juvenile adolescents and young adults, especially from Black and Brown communities. I want to revitalize therapy and encourage people to see the true benefits of it. It’s a safe haven where you can explore not only the present but the past and begin to recognize how previous trauma can affect us as we grow older.

You give your all to everyone, yet you keep saying “I’m just SO tired.” You're used to making something out of nothing. Running on fumes and still getting it done. You’ve burned out and there really is nothing left for anyone else, including yourself. You’re always last on your to-do list anyway, so there’s really no surprise there, but you’re tired of constantly pouring into others who couldn’t care less about you when you’re in need. You think you're ready to take the cape off but that’s been your safety blanket your whole life and you can't imagine living without it. Who else is going to take care of it? It’s always been you.

Life can be overwhelming, and at times, it can feel impossible to look at yourself with acceptance and confidence. Are you going through a season of life that is difficult and you aren’t sure how to cope with what life is throwing at you? Please know, you are not alone. Making the decision to begin therapy is a courageous step toward living the life you want and deserve. You deserve to feel whole and experience freedom from what you are facing, and learning new evidence-based tools, perspectives, and coping skills can greatly advance your journey back to happiness and self-confidence.

You’re tired. Worn down. Stretched thin. Burnt out. Between keeping your marriage alive, taking care of little ones, and handling all the things at work, you barely have time for yourself anymore. You feel like you've lost touch of who you even are. You need something–some sleep, a good cup of coffee, a lunch date with a friend–but also something more. You need someone who can sit with you and just listen to you. You need support during this challenging time in your life. You need time to be a priority in your life.

I've always had a passion for assisting individuals in need. If you are dealing with the challenges of life it would be a privilege to help you get through the obstacles we are sometimes dealing with. You may have feelings of depression, parenting issues or simply trying to get yourself back on track. It is my hope that I can accompany you as you step out on faith and allow me to join you as you begin your path to health and wellness. As your therapist, we will work together in achieving whatever positive goals that you may have in mind.

Individuals, couples, and families are all complex. Each having their own perspectives, life experiences, and unique inner processing. Rather than seeking an "ideal client," I meet people where they are. I will be the clinician YOU need during our time together. Do you prefer talk therapy or to have structured activities? Maybe a mix of both? We can do that. Have you had a rough day and just need someone to sit with you in the heaviness without saying much at all? We can do that, too. I do not come to session with preconceived notions of our time together. I want to support you in whatever way you need me to in that moment.

I am a highly experienced therapist who is strongly committed to helping anyone who is struggling emotionally, in any way, find more peace and fulfillment in their life. My treatment focuses on helping you to identify and understand the causes of any anxiety, stress, depression, relationship, physical, or other issues you may be experiencing; in order to then help empower you with effective strategies that will harness your inner ability to heal and thrive.

Have you been waiting and longing for a deeper connection with your love? Studies show the average couple waits 6 years before seeking professional help for marital problems. Also, couples have the same arguments over and over again, they just sound different. Whether it's conflict about chores, or a loud disagreement about disciplining the kids, each partner tends to grab onto their perspective, dig their heels in the sand, and proceed to try to get their partner to see their side, unsuccessfully. Unresolved conflicts usually get brushed under the rug, until they resurface at the next disagreement. Are you ready to break the cycle?

Brooke's focus includes individual, couple, trauma, family, and spirituality counseling. She approaches psychotherapy from a whole person perspective - addressing mental, emotional, physical, spiritual, and relational health, with the goal of seeing personal growth and lasting change as opposed to a temporary fix. Brooke has experience helping clients with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, relationship/marital issues, adhd, grief, personality disorders, eating disorders, and spirituality. Her theoretical focus combines a psychodynamic and interpersonal approach, while intertwining EMDR, CBT, and DBT therapies.

We focus on working with individual adolescents, adults, and families needing support with daily living goals, mental health, emotional health, and behavioral health, by helping build peace and confidence in your life. If you are struggling with emotions that are hard to communicate and/or manage, you have thoughts that you do not like, or you know you need support in getting through a really tough situation, we help walk you through by giving you the skills needed.

Accepting new clients & offering EMDR intensives! Whether you're looking to learn how to manage your anxiety, improve present relationships, work through life transitions, learn more about how past experiences or relationships are affecting you now, or heal from traumatic experiences, I am here to walk alongside you. You are not alone. I offer a balance between a listening, empathetic ear and skills or solutions you can take with you. I like to think I create a warm, safe, and sometimes fun environment for those looking for support & growth. If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, or stressed, you are in the right place.

Everyone experiences frustrations, struggles, disappointments, losses, and crises in their lives. I work with individuals, couples, and families who have or are experiencing these kind of issues and other difficulties in their lives that keep them from functioning and enjoying their lives and the relationships that are a part of their lives. I believe that restoration can be experienced through loss and brokenness, and that transformation can occur from restoration and healing.

You are tired of going through the motions of life only to be disappointed, discouraged and depressed. You can't sleep well and you are overthinking about what you said. You experience stress and anxiety about small things now. It used to be just the big things that worried you, and now life stressors and the difficult circumstance you face is all you can think about it. It is impacting your relationships and you have doubt that God will see you through this adversity. You feel hopeless, alone and anxious.
