Therapists in Sandy Springs, GA

Hello! My name is Manoshi and I am Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I hold a degree from Boston University School of Social Work with a focus on Behavioral Medicine from BU school of Medicine. I have over 15 plus years of experience working with kids and adults in clinics, hospitals, schools and communities. I specialize in working children, teens and adults suffering from depression, anxiety and a variety of mood disorders. I also specialize in supporting kids and teens with issues such as bullying, school related stressors, life transitions, high conflict divorce, grief and loss.

Do you want to live a balanced life and feel happy? Perhaps you are constantly facing obstacles and challenges in your life that are impacting your holistic wellness and authentic relationships. The anxiety and depression can be detrimental. I can help you, guide you, and support you as you process various issues related to your cultural/sexual identity, anxiety related to transitions and relationships, grief, trauma, depression, etc. I can help you gain a deeper insight and self-awareness that will allow you to get closer to your goals, make better decisions, and have a better quality of life in a holistic manner using mindfulness.

Asking for help can be really hard! Talking to a stranger can be uncomfortable. So, I strive to make this process a little bit easier by creating a safe and comfortable space that puts you at ease. Feeling stuck? Overwhelmed? Depressed? Anxious? Struggling with self-esteem? Whatever it is that you are going through, my goal is to empower you! I believe that everyone has what they need within them. My goal is to help you bring that out. I work with you to take your expertise in your life and combine it with my clinical knowledge and skills to tailor techniques and strategies to you and your goals.

As your therapist, I would provide a collaborative partnership that allows you to move towards your goals; both support and challenge would be provided to allow opportunities for healing and personal growth. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is crucial for psychotherapy to be effective. A strong relationship can allow for self-reflection and a greater understanding of ourselves and our patterns in relationships, helps us manage challenges, nurture feelings of empowerment, allow us to take the risks we want, and afford us opportunities for resiliency and greater life satisfaction.

Life will always present it ups and downs, however, you do not have to feel alone while working through them. As we continue to face difficulties we may not realize the impact the stress has on our relationships, work life, finances, or overall health. The goal of therapy is to provide support through life's challenges, in a safe space. I specialized in depression, grief counseling, trauma/PTSD, and substance abuse. I also enjoy working with couples who are experiencing conflicts in their marriage and are determined to bring positive changes in their life. I provide individual, couples, group therapy, and psychological testing.
