In Person Therapists in Atlanta, GA

I am licensed in Georgia with 8 years of professional work experience in mental health settings engaging diverse client populations including incarcerated juveniles, battered women, veterans, and adults with dual diagnosis. Working in the mental health field gives me the opportunity to make a difference in society. I typically work well with clients from all backgrounds. I meet my clients where they are by accepting and caring for them as they are. Some conditions I'm most comfortable treating are trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and coping with life changes.

Has talk therapy not quite stimulated the change you are hoping for? Are you feeling lost, lacking purpose or satisfaction in life? My visually expressive & meditative approach is an exploration of personality, habits, patterns, connections and the ego that have structured your life but may be disrupting your feeling of joy or sense of fulfillment & instigating stress. When in a place of fear, anxiety, desire, shame, perfection or an egotistical sense of value, we defer to what we know, judgement, impulsivity, sarcasm, disconnection or revenge. These are defenses resisting true self-awareness, compassion and connection.

A number of my clients are victims of sex trafficking, domestic violence, newly adjusting to their HIV status, LGBT and gender identity.

Because of my intimate knowledge and workings of the military, I also treat veterans and service members who struggle with PTSD.

It can be overwhelming at times. Your thoughts come quickly, and sometimes they just won't stop. You can't remember the last time you took a deep breath.

You are tired of walking on eggshells and feeling like you can't bring up any issue without it turning into a fight. Or, maybe you hardly ever fight because you both avoid bringing up difficult conversations. Either way, you just can't figure out how to communicate or make the other person understand. Your efforts go unnoticed and they never feel like enough. You end every conversation or argument feeling like your partner didn't hear a word you said which leaves you feeling lonely, hopeless, and frustrated. Sometimes you're not even sure this relationship is worth it and maybe you're ready to throw in the towel.

I am a licensed Professional. I completed a BS degree in Psychology and Sociology from Georgia State University in 1998. I completed an MS degree in Psychology from the University of Phoenix, Atlanta, in 2009. I completed a MA degree in Community Counseling with a concentration in Marriage and Family from Argosy University in 2014. I work with a diverse population of Mental Health, Substance Abuse, and Dually diagnosed individuals aged 04 to 65+. My therapeutic counseling modality approach is based on the client's needs and concerns.

A mantra that resonates with me both personally and professionally is, “Do a brave thing every day.” I love working with clients who are motivated to self-discover and grow. I specialize in providing exposure therapy and other evidence-based treatments to individuals who struggle with problems related to OCD, trauma, anxiety, and fear-based difficulties. I also specialize in helping clients overcome tics, skin-picking, and trichotillomania. I use a flexible approach to individually tailor evidence-based tools and treatments to each client based on values, culture, and client needs.

Are you on a fertility journey? Have you experienced obstacles along the way? Perhaps nothing is as disempowering as struggling with fertility. For many of us, issues with fertility mark the first time that we have wanted our bodies to do something that they seem not capable of doing. Struggles with fertility are traumatic experiences. Maybe we feel removed from friends with children, siblings with children, or parents who may not understand. Is it any wonder why we may be struggling?

Working with a psychologist should be a positive and beneficial experience. Not only do I believe in supporting my clients through successes and challenges, I love my work and am very dedicated to those I work with. In my practice, I specialize in providing comprehensive psychological assessments and therapy with children, adolescents, and young adults. Currently, I have a private practice in Atlanta; I am an attending psychologist at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta; and I perform neuropsychological/ psychoeducational evaluations at Georgia State University.

Healing is hard - we can't do it alone. The good news is we don't have to. Hello, I'm Ellen, a licensed professional counselor dedicated to providing a warm, open, and non-judgmental space for individuals navigating the journey of mental health and addictions recovery. With empathy at the core of my practice, I believe in meeting people here they are, without bias or preconceptions. I understand that each person's path to recovery is unique, and I am committed to helping individuals discover and pursue their own personal journey towards healing and well-being. I work with clients to tailor our work to meet your individual needs.

It is a courageous step to seek healing. I believe the journey of healing can be found in the comfort of a safe presence. I seek to cultivate a nonjudgmental space for individuals to feel seen and supported in the joys and sorrows life holds. All parts of you are welcome here! As a therapist I implement this through collaborative connection as we get to know each other and work toward your desired goals to foster hope and change together. I enjoy incorporating embodied practices, poetry, and music in the therapeutic process. I look forward to getting to know you!

Often, life's deepest moments are intertwined with the relationships we form; and some of life's biggest struggles result from barriers to those connections. Whether it's anxiety, anger management, codependence, impulsivity, isolation, self-esteem or something else - you and I can tackle them together. The therapeutic alliance is a non-judgmental partnership intended to facilitate your personal growth and self understanding, and it is not always an easy journey. Facing challenges in the safe container of the therapeutic environment helps build resilience to face whatever life tosses your way.

Deciding to begin the process of psychotherapy can be daunting as it is the recognition that you want to make changes in your life. The motivation to change might be obvious - there is a specific issue to address - but, sometimes the motivation is not as clear. You want to feel better or have different understandings of why things are and how you can affect the outcome. It is my privilege to accompany you on this expedition. My goal, as a therapist, is to facilitate growth by providing a space that is respectful and empathic, while also providing an opportunity for insight and understanding.

Welcome! We may be a good fit for therapy if you or your family are looking for support with disordered eating, body image issues, family communication, anxiety, or depression. I work with children as young as 10 and love involving family through either family therapy sessions or collaboration as I work with a young person individually. If you are a parent overwhelmed with supporting your child's mental health needs, I can also help with outlining options for levels of care and supporting your child as they step up or down in levels of care.

Has it occurred to you that you may not need psychotherapy? Not every problem indicates a psychological disorder. After years of personal therapy and training in the field, I decided to work in the more direct way of a collaborative LIFE COACH. Together, we explore ways you feel blocked and create goals to get you on track. We explore your imagination, the source of all change, in a safe but challenging way.

I received my MA in Counseling Psychology from Indiana Wesleyan University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), specializing in working with men and women who are having difficulty balancing life and a variety of struggles (ranging from addictions, relationships, work, parenting, depression, anxiety, PTSD, etc.). I work with survivors of abuse, domestic violence, and complex sexual trauma; substance abuse; families impacted by porn or infidelity; and veterans or first responders who are having difficulty managing the impact of their work.

Therapy is a deeply personal experience. What works for one person is not going to work for the next. For those who have tried therapy and not received the results you’ve wanted, keep trying. One therapist, treatment, or modality does not fit everyone. The fact that you are scanning through Psychology Today profiles to find the right fit for you is a small victory in itself. My goal for each client is to figure out what works for you and help create the life you want. I use humor, validation, authenticity and directness in my therapeutic approach.

I work with many people who feel overwhelmed by stress, have lost sense of meaning in their lives, or feel out of control. They repeat the same life patterns again and again. Clients may have focused on the opinions of others more than their own, entered relationships/jobs they never wanted, or feel generally unfulfilled. My clients want to learn how to be happy again or for the first time. My therapeutic style builds on client self-acceptance, empowerment, and coping skills. We work together to help gain control over decisions, values, and communication styles.

Therapy is a two person job. As a therapist, I am here to listen and encourage the client, but the client has to want to do the work within themselves. It is so important for us to work as a team to establish achievable goals that you as the client can work towards. As the therapist, I am the guide, but it is up to the client to put forth the work and effort to heal and better themselves.
