Therapists in Marietta, GA

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.

My ideal client is someone who is seeking a safe space to land where they can feel comforted, affirmed, and valued. I know your journey has been unique and nuanced, and I would love to become your trusted ally in healing as you learn how to construct a life you can truly enjoy. I look forward to helping you discover your personal values and beliefs so you are able to make more authentic and meaningful choices as you move forward with purpose and confidence. Together, we can work to cultivate a space within you where you can feel truly loved exactly as you are. Your vulnerability will never be taken for granted in the therapy room!

My specialty is couples counseling and sex therapy. I also address issues of spiritually and self-esteem. I work with couples around affair recovery, perpetual conflictual interactions, and help couples develop and maintain intimate emotional and sexual relationships. I work with individuals to help them overcome painful childhood experiences and guide them to connect to others in healthy ways. I treat couples and individuals for orgasmic difficulties, disparate and low desire, body image issues, erectile difficulties, delayed ejaculation, premature ejaculation, painful intercourse, and lack of emotional intimacy during sex.

I am fascinated by the human experience, and our ability to endure. Deep healing can begin when we have a safe place to tell our story, to be heard regardless of how our journey has unfolded. I aim to create a place where we won't get interrupted, where someone won't try to "fix" us, to empathize, and to affirm our reality. I find people make their most significant strides in their journey when they allow themselves to maneuver into seeing alternatives and redefine themselves, with a growing confidence in who they have now become.

Going through trauma, grief, depression, anxiety and/or an eating disorder can be very lonely and isolating. Clients sometimes feel that they have no one who really understands what they are going through. I have worked with many clients who have experienced tragedies and difficult times in their lives, and maybe you can relate to some of those difficult feelings. I'm here to tell you that you don't have to go through this alone! You may be looking for a place to heal, to explore painful memories, to receive support. There is strength in seeking help and I would love to be by your side to support you.

Growing up in Ghana, there was no such thing as talk therapy. Mental health was not a topic of discussion in my culture. I became fascinated with talk therapy during my college years here in America. Over the years, I have felt the need to bring talk therapy to the fore front of my community and all. My exprience has been working with adults with serious mental illnesses, children with family trauma and abandonments, individuals and families. I specialize in couples and groups as well. My approach is creating a safe space for you to be vulnerable and sincere in your disclosure of deep and personal thoughts. I am an LGBTQ ally.

You are seeking a therapist because you want to make your life and relationships better. You may feel discouraged and feel helpless as to how to improve things. The good news is that individual or couples therapy can help. Through therapy, I can help you free yourself from stress and struggle. Together we can work to heal your pain, create the relationships that you want, improve your self-esteem, and build a more fulfilling life. I can help you develop more compassion for your pain and be kinder to yourself so you can feel more hopeful about your life and relationships.

I work with individuals, couples and families and know the challenges that each face. I believe that within every person is the ability to conquer challenges and overcome their past situations. I want to help unlock your potential and the ability to see how powerful and strong you really are in overcoming the obstacles you face. I am a mom of a special needs child, sister, daughter, minister, and friend---all of these roles require a unique connection. I help others learn how to relate and excel in their lives and in relating to others.

My perspective is that life is complicated and it's easy to get lost along the way as we face our own struggles like fear, insecurity, shame and worry. If we keep those struggles in the dark, they'll only take root and trip us up and make us start to forget truth. It's only by bringing those dark places into the light that those roots can vanish and we can see truth and grow in ways we could never imagine. It's my joy to partner with others through that process and remove the stigma in seeking help.

I have a passion for working with couples, families, young adults and adolescents. I specialize in helping them walk through communication issues, anxiety, grief counseling, pre-marital counseling and marriage counseling. I provide counseling from a Christian perspective when requested. I make every effort to provide a warm and honest environment where people are able to explore their thoughts, feelings and experiences and work towards healing.

The clients I work with are striving to cultivate better relationships with the people around them or with themselves. Whether you are in a relationship (dating, engaged, or married) or you are attempting to engage in a more meaningful way with yourself, friends, family, or coworkers, my passion is helping you achieve these relational goals. I give couples the tools you need to get you out of negative communication and conflict resolution cycles and into deeper knowledge of yourself and each other. I also work with individuals who are struggling with perfectionistic tendencies, setting boundaries, and complicated family dynamics.

What I want clients to know about me! I believe your dreams and goals are bigger than the obstacles you face. I have learned there is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn't! What can clients expect from me: Clients can expect honesty, compassion, and empathy. Also, clients can expect a safe environment where you can share thoughts and feelings, set your own goals, receive insight into your experiences, and identify some options for handling issues in healthy ways.

Do you struggle with connection? Connection with your family or significant other, even a connection with yourself? Many times, in this world of social media and technology, connection seems so much harder to attain. Know you are not alone.
