About me

Greetings,
You have come to the place in your journey of life to recognize that there are potentially other ways to work through situations/problems/issues/circumstances. You made the decision to seek assistance by reaching out. I am so glad you did. My name is Annie, and I consider it a privilege to be considered as a prospective agent of change to assist you through this era of your life.

I am a licensed professional counselor in Georgia with over 15 years in the mental health field. Over the years, I have worked with clients experiencing the emergence of first and secondary trauma, violence, mental, emotional, anxiety, depression, and behavioral problems, along with other debilitating mental health disorders at many levels.
My experience includes assessing, diagnosing, and treating mental health and behavioral disorders in a State approved private outpatient community mental health center. The center services children, adolescents, families, and adults. Currently, I am transitioning from the role at the community center as clinical director into private practice.

I describe my approach to helping clients as integrative. I draw from a variety of modalities to meet the individual therapeutic needs of the individual client. The most frequent integration of modalities includes but not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Motivational Interviewing (MI), Mindfulness-based Therapy, and Interpersonal Therapy (IPT). Based on faith-based beliefs, the named modalities are integrated in the healing process.

In summary, I view the therapeutic relationship as a partnership that requires honesty, trust, integrity, respect, and mutual communication. I wholeheartedly believe the integrative approach is embedded in a holistic stance by focusing on the whole person. My intrinsic approach meets the client with empathy, care, concern, and supported hope to become a healthier person for self, others, and society at large. Hopefully, what I have shared will give you some insight as to select the best fit for a therapist. Should you choose me, I look forward to our journey together.

I have had the privilege of working with Annie McFadden, and the experience has been profoundly impactful. Miss McFadden employs an innovative and holistic therapeutic approach, seamlessly integrating classic psychological methods with biblical study. This unique combination has provided me with both emotional and spiritual insights, enriching my personal development and deepening my understanding of the challenges I face.

What distinguishes Miss Annie McFadden is her remarkable ability to couple professional expertise with genuine compassion. Drawing from an extensive reservoir of life experience, she offers nuanced perspectives that foster both trust and introspection. Miss McFadden's calm and composed demeanor creates an atmosphere of reassurance, allowing for thoughtful reflection and open dialogue.

For anyone seeking a therapeutic experience that is both intellectually rigorous and spiritually grounded, I cannot recommend her highly enough. Her capacity to integrate traditional therapeutic practices with a faith-based framework has been invaluable in my journey toward personal growth, emotional well-being, and my spiritual growth.

Annie is a great listener, and it shows that once you tell her what your going through she takes moments to ponder on what was conveyed in order to ask the best question back to envoke more concious thought
