Hello. My most favorite part of being a therapist is the celebration of your successes as we work together. I'm so glad you're taking these first steps towards support, healing, and relief. Therapy is a place to gain tools, learn about yourself, make impactful changes, and above all to be seen, heard, and accepted - whether you're struggling with grief, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, big decisions, the long-lasting impact of trauma, or any human challenge. Therapy can also be hard work - facing uncomfortable feelings and truths. My work is infused with compassion and humor to make the hard parts a little softer.
We no longer see clients in our Thomasville office, but we have several clinicians who can see clients virtually from our Atlanta office. Align Wellness is care-fully tending the gap and the overlap between psychotherapy and healing arts. We are a collection of therapists for folks who haven't quite found what they're looking for from therapy in the past.
I hope that you will take the next step to schedule a session or send me an email. From our very first session, I will give you tools to bring some relief and hope as we get to know one another and make a plan for our work together.
Take the first step to help. Call or Melanie Storrusten at Align Wellness now - (229) 702-7486

Most clients come to my couch because some symptoms or circumstances in their lives have become intolerable. Our first goal is to get you some immediate relief, and then to explore any deeper layers so that the relief you achieve is lasting. I can promise you that the discomfort you are feeling now is an important signal - together we will decipher its message, and follow its map to healing.

I am trained in several different styles of therapy to access deeper layers of healing. I love working with clients to find a method of therapy that works for them and their specific set of concerns. My work strives to facilitate healing at the root of things, rather than just putting band-aids on symptoms. We can go as slow as you'd like, and will only go as fast as is safe.
