Therapists in Woodstock, GA

Adolescents are faced with a number of developmental, emotional, behavioral, social, familial, and academic issues. I help tweens, teens, young adults, and their parents/guardians navigate mental health concerns associated with school, friendships, lifestyles, and family dynamics (including blended families) to identify coping skills, strengthen problem-solving skills, and develop healthy relationships. Setting goals to help youth discover life balance, purpose, and direction is my primary focus.

Hi there, I'm Cecelia. I help people who are easily overwhelmed to learn distress tolerance techniques and stress management skills. Together, we can strategize about what to do to help you to manage your emotions. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow.

It takes courage to reach out and ask for help. Often times, we wait until we are in a significant amount of distress before we make the decision to seek out a therapist. Take steps now before you get to a crisis. Therapy has proven to be helpful with a variety of issues. If you are going through a rough season of life, I can help. I have over twenty-eight years of experience and my approach is supportive and collaborative. I provide a warm and safe environment to explore your issues objectively.

Do you find yourself in a relationship lacking the deep connection you long for? I have extensive training and experience in Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples (EFT) and believe I can help. I provide a safe place for you and your partner to deepen the bond between you. In our work together, we will pursue insight into what is getting in the way of you experiencing safety and security in your relationship and thus deepening closeness with each other. I also have experience in working with couples whose relationship has been injured by infidelity and betrayal.

Counseling is a form of self-care. People go to therapy for various reasons: working out conflicts, improving relationships and behavior, healing from trauma, receiving treatment for mental health conditions, or just having a safe, neutral space to talk about life. You may be looking for support managing symptoms of a chronic mental health issue like anxiety or depression, or you may want a different perspective on a difficult relationship in your life. Whatever your reason for seeking therapy, it is valid, and I am here to support and guide you.

I genuinely believe in a person's ability to grow and change for the better, and I'm here to assist you in that process. Whether you're struggling with relationships, communication skills, depression, anxiety, self-confidence, adult ADHD, unresolved conflicts, or related issues, I'm available to help. I bring years of experience as a therapist and a strong desire to assist you in defining and accomplishing your goals. My approach is supportive, practical, and built on Christian principles.

I love helping couples who are struggling in their relationships to come together and love their partners more adaptively. I also enjoy helping parents and children to have a healthier understanding of each other and wok on effective communication. Lastly, I work with individual clients navigating difficult times in their lives.

I have a passion for empowering children, adolescents, and adults to feel worthy, understood, functional, and complete. No matter what struggles you are facing, I am here to partner with you to create a non-judgmental environment that improves your quality of life through research-driven treatment plans. If you are a parent seeking help fostering healthy behaviors, connection, and emotional regulation in your child, I provide collaborative and neurologically informed play therapy, creative-expressive therapy, and talk therapy sessions that are tailor-made to fit your child or adolescent's developing mind, personality, & interests.

Want to feel better in much less time than typical "talk" therapy? I use Hypnosis, Hypnotherapy, and NLP to address your subconscious mind at the level below conscious awareness. Hypnotherapy is "quick therapy" because it works within a natural yet altered state of consciousness, reprogramming old habits and behaviors that no longer serve you. Let your subconscious mind to the heavy lifting this time.

We are ready to journey with you. Painful symptoms from depression, anxiety, and/or relationship problems can cause great difficulty as we try to navigate through daily life.

We listen carefully and openly to current and past struggles to help promote self-awareness and understanding. We work closely with clients to alleviate problematic symptoms and promote overall well-being! Check out our Website or give us a call for a free 15-minute consultation.

Hi everyone, I'm Shannon! I am a Master's level dance/movement therapist and clinical mental health counseling Intern at CNSL. I was drawn to the helping profession as I believe each person has a unique perspective of the world and should be trusted with managing it. I use a blend of client-centered, somatic/humanistic approach, and the expressive arts to encourage a person's emotional, social, cognitive, and physical integration with the aim of enhancing mental health and well-being. My goal is to assist children and adolescents in realizing their full potential in a non-traditional, therapeutic way!

The experience of life has many emotions...joy, excitement, fear, sadness, or grief, to name just a few. When negative emotions become overwhelming, it helps to talk to someone who can be objective, unbiased, and supportive. My aim in therapy is to explore the feelings defining your life, from your perspective, while in a safe and caring environment. Together, we'll explore your existing strengths and abilites, discover new ways to use or enhance your coping skills, and help you to build hope and resiliency through all of the phases of your adult life.
