Teletherapy for Suwanee, GA

If you are struggling with adjusting to new life circumstances; relationship, family, school issues; or significant mental health issues, I would love to provide whatever assistance you may need! I have a PhD in Clinical Psychology and 20+ years of experience working with clients of all ages, a wide range of problems/diagnoses, and in various groupings. Prior, I served as a school psychologist and teacher in the public schools. I currently provide therapy for clients as individuals, couples, or families, as well as premarital counseling, parent training, consultations, thru a combination of online and in-person sessions.

I love to help aspiring people find new meaning of life by sorting through feelings of worry and hopelessness instead of avoiding them like an annoying telemarketer. My clients struggle just like you do. Despite being successful, intelligent, and as sweet as a Georgia peach, life is hard. When they first come in, they feel overwhelmed with every aspect of their life. What once seemed like a small hurdle has turned into an Olympic sport to overcome. They can hardly remember feeling motivated and feel like joy has vanished.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with extensive experience in a variety of psychological services including counseling, assessment, and case management. My goal in therapy is to provide clients with the tools necessary for developing a sense of empowerment that will assist them in overcoming their challenges. I believe that by restructuring the perception of our world and, subsequently, our responses to the environment, we can improve our sense of well-being. By building the therapeutic trust and offering a safe place where my clients can share their concerns, we can work together to help you heal and grow.

I pride myself on being a great listener, teaching effective skills for creating the changes you want, and really getting to the root of issues. I know what it’s like to be in counseling and work on the hard stuff – and more importantly how amazing progress feels.

I have extensive experience providing therapy for adults, teens, and couples. I have experience helping individuals navigate difficulties with depression, anxiety, trauma, spiritual concerns, or relationship issues. I tailor my approach to provide a variety of practical coping skills (such as mindfulness and CBT), as well as taking an in-depth relational approach to more complex topics (such as psychodynamic or Internal Family Systems).

I help ambitious over-achievers pick themselves back up after life has drop kicked them to the ground. My clients struggle like you do. Despite being driven, adaptable, and as likable as a floppy puppy, life is hard. When they first come in, they feel frustrated that they can't keep up with their own standards when they used to set the curve. They've gone from being everyone's go-to person to feeling like a burden and they wonder if they'll be able to do it on their own. The idea of even asking for help is too embarrassing to consider.

I believe most men want to be good but struggle with making sense of their inner world and knowing how to wield the strength God has given them. This can leave us feeling frustrated, as well as those we're in relationship with. We know there's more to us, but we don't know how to access this more. And the weight and fear of these expectations often robs us of our ability to make an impact for good in the world. To be sure, our work and friendships, marriage, sex life, parenting, and the like all suffer when there's not peace in our inner world.

I help highly intelligent over-achievers trade anxiety for confidence without feeling like a failure. My clients struggle like you do. Despite being smart, successful, and funnier than a viral meme, life is hard. When they first come in, they feel trapped by their image. They like being thought of as organized and successful, but inside they feel a total fake. When they stop to think about it, they realize they don't even feel like themselves anymore... it's like they've morphed into what other people expect them to be. Their greatest fear is people seeing the real person behind their mask and rejecting them.

I am here to help educate and empower! As my 1st cousin, Casey Kasem of American Top 40 would say, "Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars!"

I treat a variety of issues such as PTSD, ADHD, ODD, OCD, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideations, self-esteem issues, substance use, trauma, and behavioral issues. I strive to help children/teens becoming caring, loving, functional adults with a positive self-image and healthy emotional expression. In my work with adolescents, I help them to achieve life goals, build self-esteem, and healthy peer relationships. For adults with substance use I work with the client to find a path to sobriety by treating the underlying cause, using their inner strengths to support them.

Sarah believes that each client is the author of his or her own life experiences, and has the capability of maneuvering and pushing forward through circumstances in life. She recognizes it can be difficult and scary learning and implementing the tools needed to accomplish fears and worries. "It's like exercising a new muscle. It may hurt and get sore by working-out, but the muscle grows stronger the more effort you put into working on it." She has extensively researched the concept of empathy to help clients work through their trauma to develop secure attachment styles as well as understanding perspectives and co-dependency actions.

Even after years of psychotherapy, do you still feel affected by negative thoughts and emotions? Sometimes you cry out loud, “I can’t help but live this way!” despite all your efforts? I understand you feel exhausted from trying all the time with few reliefs. Often we suffer more from our memories than the life in front of us. The fear of experiencing these negative memories again builds fuel for sustaining depression, anger, and anxiety. We understand these challenges, and we will work with you to clear out the thick haze of persistent negative mood and anxiety so that your life can happen.

Dealing with feelings of anxiety, depression, hopelessness, PTSD, and/or the general difficulties of life can be hard. With that being said, I want to commend you for seeking out help to overcome these struggles. A person’s awareness and acceptance of their emotional complexities can be the difference between living a high quality of life, with no restrictions, and one that is filled with pain, loss and destructive cycles. The good thing is, all that is needed to foster recovery is honesty, open-mindedness, and willingness. These three qualities are the keys to the kingdom, if you will, regarding therapy.

It is said that we rise by lifting others. This rings true as it describes why most of us in the field do the work. We want you to rise and have the self-efficacy to lift yourself. I do not believe in a one-size-fit-all approach for my clients, as I work to find the best therapeutic support for each person. I have an open-door policy and encourage you to take the lead in your own healing and path forward.

My name is Lashaunta Hogan. You just made the first step, Congratulations! The initial step in asking for help can sometimes be the hardest to make. Reading this is that step. Life can be overwhelming and when those times occur, it helps to have someone trained and unbiased to help navigate those situations. Choosing someone to help traverse transitional life circumstances, choosing new life directions, or just having someone to work through normal everyday life, is one of the most important choices you can ever make. You should never feel embarrassed or judged to ask for help. I hope that I can be that person for you.

I received my Master of Arts degree in Counseling Psychology from Northwestern University in Evanston IL.

My varied professional experience has provided me with significant challenges, resulting in a skillful, and empathic therapist. I am goal oriented and strength-focused. I enjoy assisting individuals and families in making positive changes. I specialize in relationship issues, depression, anxiety, stress management, substance abuse and domestic violence.

I help nerdy cool awkward teens and young adults navigate through a world that doesn't seem to fit. My clients struggle like you do. Despite being smart, funny, and knowing the ins and outs of their favorite games, life is hard. When they first come in, they tell me that they don't need therapy. They explain that other people don't get them, blame them, and expect them to be something they're not. They can't figure out where life went from sometimes fun/sometimes boring to unmanageable and overwhelming. They talk about their family not caring and not really having friends. They struggle to communicate with pretty much everyone.
