Therapists Beginning With B in Georgia

Going to therapy requires a lot of courage to begin this journey, and I am here to meet you where you are. My goal is to make your experience in therapy feel safe so that you can be your authentic self in a warm, non-judgmental space. I help clients find the "root" of their anxiety, trauma, & relationship issues, while also providing coping skills that create meaningful and lasting change. When you leave a session, I want you to feel empowered and hopeful that you can achieve your goals.

I have extensive experience working with a broad array of clinical issues and enjoy working with all different kinds of people. My approach to treatment is holistic, in that I draw on the intimate connection between mind and body to foster emotional, physical and spiritual well-being. My approach to therapy is collaborative, as I guide individuals through a process of self-awareness, healing, and change so that their goals become realities. I respect and honor each client's ethnicity, religion and cultural background, and strive to be authentic and honest while providing a safe and compassionate environment for change.

Addiction isolates its victims as bridges are burned and families are torn apart. I can help you wherever you are on your journey of recovery and assist you as you transform your life and improve your relationships. Having a safe place where you will be listened to, understood and where you will not be judged will help you to discover and explore what has been holding you back. What I l have loved most about working in the field of addictions for almost 30 years has been the rapid growth and change I have witnessed in my clients! It has been my experience that once the substance is no longer a factor, life gets good, fast!

When life begins to feel impossible, turning to substances, sex, food, or even your phone can feel like a welcome escape. Learning to cope with life when you weren't given the tools to cope can be overwhelming. If you've found that you can't face life without something to ease the pain, I want you to know that you are not alone. If you've gone through treatment and need continuing support, I celebrate you for asking for what you need. If you find yourself turning to substances or something else to numb your pain, I want you to know that there is hope.

Do you struggle with behavior patterns that you just can't seem to change? Do you want your life different but have no idea how to get there? All of us experience difficulties in life. Emerging from those challenges and learning from them is what's important. But it can also feel daunting without the support of someone who will walk with you through the pain and healing. I will guide you in letting go of control and finding your joy in life. You will find a new appreciation for yourself and others as you skip down the road of life.

You do not need to be fixed. You need to feel cared for, understood, and accepted, by yourself and others! These are core human needs and when they are met we are better equipped to feel authentic connections to ourselves and others, cope with distress, and find inner happiness. Within us lies incredible resources for healing and transformation. My goal is to foster an environment that activates your innate healing resources, leading to mental, emotional, and physical well being.

You may be reluctant to contact a therapist believing you should be able to solve life's problems without help. That is not necessary!! All of us, with complicated and stressful lives can have struggles. Therapy can help you learn the skills you have not had a chance to develop. Psychotherapy can help when sadness or anxiey is interfering with your happiness and can help identify the obstacles that interfere with you reaching your goals. Additionally, your marriage and family relationships can improve greatly with therapy by helping you develop better communication skills and understand the underlying issues.

Hello, my name is Dr. Cortnie S. Baity, LMFT and I am the owner of Onward and Upward Psychotherapy & Consulting Services, LLC., now serving all Florida and Georgia residents. I understand that throughout our life’s journey we all will face difficult moments and/or seasons. In order to grow through these times we must embrace the human species’ primal need for survival: meaningful social engagement.

Here for the "I DON'T KNOW's." So many patients & their families come into my office and say, "I just don't know what's going on with me/my loved one." And for me, that's a great place to start! It's my job, using assessments and up-to-date testing equipment to answer that question. I feel that it is difficult to know HOW to treat something if you don't know WHAT you are treating. Mental Health diagnoses often overlap and are confusing. Testing and therapy helps answer the "I don't know's". I do ALL of my own testing to limit errors and provide extremely comprehensive services for you and your loved ones.

You took the right step to look for an objective perspective. Now, to get unstuck from those anxieties, relationship difficulties or traumatic feelings, it may only take working together to get the perspective you need. It is already in you to find that better place to be and it shows up in the steps you have taken to get here. I would like to work with you to bring out your strengths and walk beside you as you grow.

~Currently not accepting new clients~ As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I work collaboratively with my clients to support them in their individual process of self-exploration and healing. Counseling offers an opportunity to take a step back and explore thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a safe, supportive environment. It is an active process where past and present life experiences can be discussed, choices can be evaluated, and skills can be learned and practiced. I believe a positive counseling relationship is critical for progress and growth.

It's exciting for me to work with individuals and couples who allow themselves to be aware of the power in this journey. I consider it a great privilege to assist in the rebuilding or expansion of love relationships. Whether it's a renaissance of self or a couple redefining and crafting deeper connections, answers to how successful relationships occur is no longer guesswork. Having a specialization in relationships, I deliver a practical, interactive, and highly effective approach that will expand your skill set across several dimensions. It is holistic and will enhance relationships in all aspects of your life.

Life can be difficult for us all, but does it sometimes seem tougher on you? Maybe there actually is something making life more challenging for you. Do you often have feelings of guilt, shame, hopelessness, or panic, but can't identify the cause of these? Do you suffer from sleep problems, low energy, stomach issues, or muscle tension that you can't explain? Do you have trouble concentrating, or racing thoughts that are impossible to control? These are some of the ways that anxiety and depression can affect a person. Daily stress plus unresolved trauma can worsen the condition to the point that life becomes unbearable.
