Therapists Beginning With O in Georgia

Reaching out led to comfort and healing, and eventually opened doors that led to becoming a therapist. Now I reach out to those who are where I was. I have had opportunities to work in many settings over the years, including medical and mental health hospitals, intensive outpatient, and residential addiction treatment centers, and now private practice.
