Therapy can help you learn more about yourself and lead a more meaningful life. If you’re looking for a therapist, GA has many options for online treatment. Finding a therapist in Georgia can be challenging. Barriers to treatment, like a lack of available providers or transportation issues, can make it challenging to find in-person treatment. 

While BetterHelp does not currently provide group therapy, you can get one-on-one treatment with a licensed psychologist, social worker, marriage and family therapist, or other mental health professional. Every therapist on the platform has a master's of arts or science degree. Note that while BetterHelp providers have a wide range of experience, they do not offer mental health care to children or use techniques designed for younger clients, like play therapy, at this time.

BetterHelp providers use a holistic approach and a variety of therapeutic techniques to ensure that they meet your unique needs. If you need help developing coping skills, improving self-awareness, or facing challenges in your family, counseling can help. Whether you’re in Savannah, Augusta, or Atlanta, GA, or anywhere in between, contact one of the therapists below to start working with a provider licensed to practice in the Peach State.

I’m not perfect and don’t have all the answers. But I believe most people already hold what they need—we just have to dig a little. As your therapist, think of me as a tour guide. I’ll walk with you, point out what needs attention, and help you build tools to handle what life brings. I’m honest, fair, consistent, and present. I won’t give fluff or false promises, but I will challenge and support you. I’ll offer insight, but the pace and depth of the work will be yours to lead. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia with over 10 years of experience. I earned my Master’s in Counseling with a focus in Clinical Mental Health from Delta State University. I’ve worked with clients ages four through older adulthood, across concerns like anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and life transitions. My experience includes outpatient, inpatient, crisis response, community work, and telehealth. My style is person-centered, blending CBT, humanistic, rational choice, psychoeducation, and expressive techniques when helpful. You should also know the first session with me is a space to feel things out. It serves as a consultation—your opportunity to decide if I feel like the right fit. Your comfort on this journey matters most, especially as we dig into insight that can sometimes feel hard to hear.

Hi, my name is Oliver Harper and I possess a wide range of clinical experiences working within residential settings for adolescents; short term acute care facilities as a clinician and consultant with adults and adolescents; worked in various communities of Metro Atlanta providing in-home therapy and maintained a private practice for 15 years. I graduated with an MS in Professional Counseling from Georgia State University; along with attending Seminary in Atlanta and obtained graduate degrees in Leadership and Apologetics. I also attended business school and worked on Wall Street and have undergraduate and graduate degrees in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. I have specialized and certificate training in REBT, Adlerian Psychology, DBT, and Parenting. I primarily use Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy as my primary treatment modality as it is very effective in reducing stress and anxiety while providing pragmatic tools for effective living. Over my professional, life I have had significant exposure to working with traumatized clients and have learnt interventions to address its impact. I have authored two books. I also incorporate Stoic philosophy as a therapeutic intervention in the service of clients. My therapeutic skill set provides a compassionate inquiry into the lives of individuals challenged with childhood shadows induced by family dysfunction, trauma, alcoholism, anxiety, perfection tendencies, and an overwhelming need for approval and validation. My clinical training will facilitate clients to connect the dots between then and now and integrate the fragmentation at the root of their maladaptive patterns. I am a lifelong learner and have dedicated my life to being of service;I believe in the innate capacity of individuals and their potential to be their own rescue with guidance and to know that there is something distinct, unique, and specific about each of us and my clinical task is to guide each individual to share that belief. The therapeutic relationship is a sacred trust and it is a privilege to be a witness to the inner world of others and to support them in their discovery, recovery, and integration of their best self. Allow me to journey with you and I promise to be present with you all the way to a better version of yourself by strengthening your identity capital.

I believe that each client has unique concerns and issues that should be focused upon one at a time. However, some conditions have to be treated concurrently, such as times when comorbid (underlying and preexisting) conditions exist, for example: PTSD and anxiety and depression, or substance abuse and other mental health disorders. During this time of pandemic, social unrest, and beyond; my role is to help you explore your concerns/issues and build new realities based upon your strengths. I view counseling as a collaborative process whereby the achievement of mutually defined counseling goals is accomplished through commitment and patience. Counseling can help you gain personal insight and lead you to a better understanding of yourself and others. I use a variety of theoretical approaches individualized for you and your life situation. Diagnostic and testing information will be used to help guide my work with you. Your active involvement in and out of our sessions together is essential to gain maximum benefit from your counseling sessions. I may ask you to do homework assignments, exercises or journals. Periodically, we will evaluate our progress and, if necessary, redesign our treatment plan. Remember we are in this together. My commitment is to walk alongside you. As with any intervention, there are both benefits and risks associated with counseling that may include experiencing uncomfortable levels of feelings like sadness, guilt, anger or frustration. Often progress is a gradual process. The goal is to achieve the best and most promising outcome for you. I graduated from Regent University College of Arts and Science earning a Bachelor of Science (BS) of Psychology Cum Laude, and lifetime membership in Psi Chi a Psychological Honor Society. Upon acceptance at Regent University School of Psychology & Counseling Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program (CACREP). I earned a Master of Art (MA) in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Certificate of Graduate Studies (CGS) in Trauma.. I am a member of Chi Sigma Iota Alpha Omega Lambda, Counseling Academic and Professional Honor Society International. I hold board certification credentials through the National Board of Certified Counselors as a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor (CCMHC). I have completed the CADC-II credential. I am pursuing (3rd year) a PhD in Clinical Psychology to better serve clients with psychological testing. Additionally, I am pursuing the MAT (medication-assisted treatment/medically assisted therapy), and Clinical Supervisor credentials CPCS & ACS (Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor & Approved Clinical Supervisor Courses Complete; Licensures in progress, applications in progress). Area of competence consist of assessment, diagnosis and treatment of mental and emotional disorders and trauma; utilizing treatment approaches such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness and Acceptance-Based Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Person Centered, Reality and related Choice therapies, Motivational Interviewing techniques, mental health services consultation and training; and individual and group counseling. Most recently, I have had the awesome privilege of working as Lead Clinician at a residential facility walking alongside women, women with children, and men experiencing homelessness. We utilize a transformational model of change centered in both Person-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral Therapeutic approaches. Realizing that one approach is not appropriate for all we integrate other modalities in treatment with amazing outcomes. I must say that it has been a world-class experience, and one of the most challenging yet rewarding times of my vocation thus far.

Hey there! I’m Marcia — a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), long-time wellness educator, and “movement-meets-mindset” practitioner with over two decades of experience supporting adults through stress, life transitions, workplace stress, burnout, compassion fatigue, and the everyday challenges that make it hard to take care of yourself. I’ve worked in a wide range of settings — crisis hotlines, substance abuse, career planning, military units and federal agencies, private practice, higher education and wellness facilitation — and I bring a calm, practical, whole-person approach to every session. Although I my time on BetterHelp is limited, I bring years of clinical work, real-world experience, and mind–body wellness expertise to this space. For the last decade, I’ve also taught fitness, movement, and stress-regulation practices, which gives me a unique perspective on how the body and mind interact when we’re overwhelmed or stretched too thin. I offer short-term therapeutic consults for adults who are stable but overwhelmed, tired of “pushing through,” or struggling to keep up with their own self-care. We won’t do long-term therapy or crisis work here — instead, we’ll focus on practical insight, emotional skills, and small shifts that help you feel more steady, centered, and in control. Who I Work Best With I’m a strong fit for adults who are doing “okay” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, unbalanced, or disconnected on the inside. You’re managing life, but the stress is catching up. You want insight, grounding, and small-but-powerful shifts that help you feel more steady and more like yourself. You’re a great fit if you are: • High-functioning but exhausted or unfocused • Struggling to maintain healthy routines • Navigating busy schedules, burnout, or life transitions • Looking for clarity, grounding, and realistic strategies • Are emotionally stable enough for collaborative, solution-oriented work I may not be the right provider if you are in acute distress, navigating trauma triggers, managing panic attacks, experiencing significant depressive episodes, or need crisis intervention or intensive therapeutic care. I do not offer long-term psychotherapy, emergency intervention, or deep therapeutic work on BetterHelp. What to Expect in Sessions Our sessions are focused, collaborative, and supportive. We’ll start with what’s showing up in your life right now, explore the emotional and physical patterns around it, and talk through practical tools to help you feel more grounded and capable moving forward. You can expect thoughtful questions, real talk, and an approach that honors both your lived experiences and your desire to feel better. If you’re ready for straightforward insight, strategies that make sense, and support that respects your time and your goals — I’m here. Let’s start creating a calmer, stronger foundation for your well-being.

In today's fast-paced society, mental well-being has become a cornerstone of a fulfilling life. Amid the daily challenges and stressors that can overwhelm even the most resilient individuals, seeking professional guidance often offers a path to clarity and balance. The journey toward improved emotional health involves understanding personal triggers, embracing self-compassion, and developing effective coping strategies. While self-help books and online resources provide valuable information, nothing compares to the personalized support offered by a qualified mental health professional. One-on-one sessions with experienced experts can help uncover the underlying issues contributing to anxiety, depression, or other emotional hurdles. With a careful and empathetic approach, these professionals tailor their advice to suit individual needs, ensuring that each person receives strategies that work best for their unique circumstances. Whether through cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, or other innovative methods, the aim is to foster resilience and empower individuals to take control of their inner lives. For those living in bustling urban centers, engaging in face-to-face sessions in a welcoming environment can be particularly beneficial. Access to a caring clinician provides not only a safe space to explore difficult emotions but also builds a support network essential for long-term recovery. The process encourages self-reflection and greater insight into behavioral patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed. While the journey can be challenging at times, the rewards include enhanced emotional stability, improved interpersonal relationships, and a renewed sense of self-worth. In one notable case, the guidance provided by a highly trained therapist proved instrumental in navigating a tumultuous period. Through structured sessions and tailored interventions, the individual learned to identify stressors and develop healthier responses to adversity. This experience underscored the transformative impact that dedicated support can have on one's overall quality of life. In a region like Texas, community-based initiatives and accessible mental health programs further reinforce the value of professional help. These efforts emphasize early intervention, preventive care, and continuous support, ensuring that more people are equipped to face life's inevitable challenges. Ultimately, investing in mental well-being is an act of self-care that yields lifelong benefits. By embracing professional support, individuals can unlock new levels of emotional resilience and discover pathways to a brighter, more balanced future. Each step taken toward healing represents a commitment to personal growth, enabling a life filled with renewed optimism and strength. Embracing this transformative journey consistently paves the way for deeper understanding, lasting peace, and meaningful personal progress.
