Therapists in East Ellijay, GA

I am a Licensed Psychotherapist in the state of Georgia with more than 14 years clinical counseling experience in community behavioral health, academic settings and in private practice. I provide counseling and psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. In support of optimal wellness, I enjoy helping others find meaning and balance in their lives. I have worked extensively with adults, children and adolescents with issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, and other disorders to include issues of sexuality. I am narrative in orientation and trained in Trauma-focused therapy. Everyone has a story and finding meaning in that story helps one to identify realistic goals for living an improved life. I believe strongly in the benefits of a holistic approach to wellness, promoting a healthier you. Care and counseling focused on you is what leads every session. In my practice, I approach every client with the care and compassion deserved, acknowledging the importance of every concern. It is my hope that you find the counseling environment to be both inviting and therapeutic.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Georgia with over 20 years of experience working with individuals, children, and families. I have worked with clients on a wide range of issues. I started my career working in child welfare where I worked along side parents to help them become the best versions of themselves as individuals and as parents. I am experienced in working with parents and teens and helping each person improve those familial relationships. For over a decade, I have had the honor of working in medical settings with individuals coping with and adjusting to a new chronic and/or terminal disease diagnosis and with their families as they grapple with their new normal. I have facilitated grief support groups for those that have lost a loved one. Processing grief is very important and looks different for everyone. I enjoy partnering with clients in finding their way back to joy and purpose after a loss. I use an integrated approach to therapy and try to meet each client where they are. I utilize evidenced based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), but ultimately work with the individual to construct a treatment plan that serves their needs best. It is a huge step to seek out therapy. I look forward to meeting you and helping you become the healthiest version of yourself. Please note that, at this time, I am only accepting clients that can be seen between the hours of 9:00am and 3pm EST. My afternoon/evening slots are currently full.

We all experience challenges in our daily lives; working, dating, raising children, marriage, communication, spirituality, education. Difficulties in these areas of life need not become debilitating or lead to the destruction of caring relationships. The most difficult challenge is taking the first step to ask for help. You have the answers, you just need help unlocking those answers. Let me help. As a veteran of the U.S. Navy and a Navy Hospital Corpsman I live the core principles of honor, courage, and commitment and I view the relationship between those myself and those I serve to be a sacred trust. With over 30 years experience in the behavioral health field, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience that few can match. Having earned my reputation in inpatient, outpatient, residential, educational, and correctional environments, I am well equipped to address most behavioral health issues.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia and Alabama with over 9 years of experience as a counselor. My training and experience allow me to work with diverse cultures and back grounds. My goal is to help my clients improve their overall life by helping them learn how to take control, refocus and start again. Every minute is a chance to begin again. My approach to therapy is eclectic. Therapy is not a one size fits all. I will utilize different modalities based off my client's needs. I like for therapy to feel personalized to each individual I work with. I do tend to utilize a lot of CBT, Solution focused therapy, Client centered and Rational emotive therapy.
