Positive Psychology Therapists in Atlanta, GA

Contacting a counselor can be intimidating, taking a bold step towards your own healing and health. I wholeheartedly believe that therapy helps people get to where they want to be mentally, interpersonally, and emotionally. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Nationally Certified Counselor, and Clinical Supervisor providing psychotherapy and counseling services to adults, families, and couples. My practice specializes in addressing issues related to anxiety, grief, depression, relationships, and career concerns that keep people from functioning optimally.

I am a certified life coach consultant whose passion and service is to help others improve their lives and reach their goals. I specialize in assisting youth in their self-discovery. I assist them in creating a blueprint on how to fit, understand, and be part of society. Youth experience traumatic emotions and can be deeply troubled and misguided. Parents become confuse and inpatient about their teens behaviors and decision making. My coaching techniques aim to help youths be positive, organize and responsible, grow confidence, become people-person, improve their lifestyle, and follow their dreams.

Throughout life's journey, many people will or may have encountered some form of trauma, abuse, hurt, or pain. If that’s you, I want you also to know that it’s been me too. You’re Not Alone! I am passionate about working with Teens And Adults. I speak trauma, truth, and transparency. Allow me to walk with you along the journey and assist you in living and no longer existing.

We help people who look happy on the outside actually feel that way on the inside. It's exhausting trying to keep it all together. Most of us expend a huge amount of effort to make it look like our life is perfect; especially on social media. While our accomplishments may be lengthy, our relationships and fulfillment are lacking. We understand, and our approach reflects just that. Creating a connection is core to our approach to counseling. We work from a multitude of theoretical frameworks including person-centered, positive psychology, cognitive behavioral, family systems, and solution focused.

Life happens in unexpected ways. Whether adjusting to a sudden life change or a known life transition, you may be feeling emotionally overwhelmed and exhausted. The time period of transitioning to adulthood is stressful enough and dealing with anxiety, hopeless feelings, or just uncertainty on how to move forward can make it unbearable. Many adults have found help by reaching out and working with a therapist. There is an opportunity to learn and grow from your experience. Maya Angelou says, “You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”

I’m Dr. Brandon, a therapist practicing in the State of Georgia and Washington, DC. My approach to therapy is grounded in evidence-based practices, designed to help you identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that may be impacting your mental health. But therapy is very dynamic and doesn't have to be all serious! As someone who loves to laugh and believes in the healing power of humor, I also incorporate a healthy dose of levity into my sessions. In fact, research has shown that laughter can boost mood, reduce stress, and even strengthen our immune systems.

Therapy does not have to be boring! I utilize science-based, evidenced-backed treatments for you to feel better, quickly, and build resilience to protect you in the future. In a safe and non-judgmental environment, I will introduce Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) skills, which give you more control over distressing or intrusive thoughts, and are especially effective in teaching new coping skills. I also adopt many principles of Positive Psychology, to promote happiness and the pursuit of a meaningful life. I look forward to seeing you succeed.

I am a Licensed Psychotherapist and Life Coach with over 30 years of experience, compassionate about helping others to rise above and better deal with their life challenges, both past and present.

I have successfully treated PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, Relationship Issues, Family Issues, Eating Disorders, Career-related, and Expat Issues. I've also helped those who have experienced emotional trauma/other abuse. I invite you to not just work on "getting better" instead work on "getting well

A compassion-based coaching practice, I work with Gen Z (18-22), Millennials (22-47), Gen X (47-56), Baby Boomers (57-75), and Traditionalists (75+) using positive psychology to help with life transitions (college, LGBTQ, change of career, unemployment, grief, disability, relationships, abandonment, chronic illness, COVID-19, loss of a loved one/parent/child/spouse, loss of a beloved pet, etc.). Guided meditation/hypnotherapy, custom affirmations and sound therapy (Nepalese & Tibetan singing bowls) are just some of the coping strategies to help people release the past and move toward their future success!

My approach is rooted in empathy, fun, and a commitment to empowering clients to regain control over their lives.

I know that it can be really hard to ask for help, especially when you have been a high achiever your whole life. You have had a lot of success, so you probably think, "why can't I fix it myself? Why can't I be perfect?" Whether it’s your health, your work, your eating habits, your relationships, or your feelings about yourself; life isn’t always smooth or easy. Your carefully crafted plans didn't quite work out as hoped. I'm glad you're reaching out. I believe that your emotional well-being is the centerpiece of a healthy life, and that we can work together to help you to get through your challenges and achieve your goals.

It is so important to have support to mitigate the mental health toll of becoming or being a parent. I create a safe, contained space to process all of the feelings that arise. No one should have to suffer alone. I strive to hold, empower, support, connect, and learn with you. If you're looking for ways to process these huge changes, how your own childhood impacts your parenting, ways to regulate or ground yourself with stress or overwhelm, process your ambivalence, grief, uncertainty and lack of control; I am here to support you as we walk this journey together.

Do you need a safe place to have those difficult conversations as a couple or as an individual? What do you need to talk about but are just "afraid to go there"? Has nagging or snipping at each other become a daily ritual? Emotions keep us from facing our challenges, and lead to avoidance of conflict or limit insight that is necessary for personal or relationship growth. My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental, and open space to explore new perspectives and reframe old thoughts and behaviors that may have worked in the past, but are now part of the problem.

Struggling to find balance in your life? Between the demands of school, career, home, and family, it can seem nearly impossible to manage the stress, emotions, and responsibilities that accompany these daily. With CBT and mindfulness-based approaches, living a gratifying life is possible. I work with adolescents, adults, and couples, providing skills and helping them integrate these skills into their daily lives to build a life worth living. Finding and maintaining balance is a crux in achieving the life you want to live. Allow me to help you attain your goals.
