There are times in our lives that many of us can use support from therapy. Whether experiencing family conflict, recovering from relationship challenges, or seeking career counseling in professional life, therapy offers tools we can use to improve communication skills, manage stress, and facilitate personal growth. 

When it comes to finding a therapist, Johns Creek, GA, may offer more variety than surrounding rural areas, but finding the right provider can be challenging, even in metro areas. Counseling services can range from postpartum counseling for perinatal depression to solution-based therapy for personal and professional goal setting. The type of therapy that you need may not necessarily be accessible or available to you in-person. This is where online therapy can help. 

BetterHelp is an online therapy platform that offers access to Johns Creeks-area therapists with expertise in a variety of approaches, and with experience working with diverse populations. That way whether you are looking for treatment for mood disorders, or support for addiction, you can find just what you need. Simply fill out an online questionnaire and BetterHelp will match you with a therapist that meets your individual needs. And because therapeutic alliance can be essential to success, if you need to change therapists you can do so at no additional cost. 

Online therapy can also offer convenience and accessibility. Many busy professionals enjoy the ease of fitting online sessions into their schedule. Others appreciate that they can attend sessions from the comfort of their own home. Some people, for example someone experiencing a severe anxiety disorder, can find it difficult to walk into a therapist's office. Online therapy allows you to meet with a therapist through video chat, phone, or text messaging options.

I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia, psychological skills trainer, and wellness coach. I work with adult (18+) individuals experiencing various mental health, relationship, and career challenges, role and life transitions, and various other issues. My education includes a Bachelor's of Arts in Communication from the University of Kentucky and a Master's of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the Georgia School of Professional Psychology. My specialized training includes compassion based cognitive therapy (CBCT), trauma informed mindful cognitive behavior therapy (TI-MCBT), SMART recovery, grief/bereavement counseling, end of life counseling, assertiveness and boundaries, self-esteem and confidence, conflict resolution, communication, and many other teachable and trainable skills that aid you in transformation and empowering you to take good care of yourself. With every situation comes the choice for self-growth, development, and healing. These times of transition or particularly difficult times may seem intense and unmanageable, but with the proper support many of these situations can become the beacon of change to a new version of yourself and a new stage in your life. There can be no guarantees in therapy, however, with willingness, commitment, and consistency - improvement, growth, and healing are possible. My goal is to empower you to make the choice of how you want to see yourself and your life and help you gain the knowledge, coping skills, and self-awareness needed to define, create, and maintain change. Counseling can help you to discover yourself in new ways and learn healthy ways of coping. Through a strengths based approach, I can help you realize and lean into your strengths while strengthening any areas of improvement you wish to address. I'm committed to creating a safe environment for you to express yourself and examine your thoughts and beliefs, process your emotions, and will partner with you as you work your way to a more healed and meaningful life. I offer interpersonal, person-centered therapy, and trauma-informed, culturally sensitive care. Depending on the unique needs of my clients, I may utilize techniques and interventions from cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), dialectic behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), narrative therapy, somatic (body based) therapies, mindfulness, existentialism, and spirituality (if welcome).

We live in a society that seeks instant gratification, but there is no way to short circuit the path to success. I'm Pauleena, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and we can sets goals and navigate that path together. I use Cognitive Behavioral & Wholistic approaches to help you become the best version of yourself. I'll question your thoughts, provide alternative perspectives, and challenge you to dig deeper to give us both a better picture of what you're thinking and feeling. I completed a Bachelor's of Art degree in Criminal Justice in 2014. The following year, I began working as a substance abuse counselor and knew that therapy/counseling is what I wanted to spend my life doing. I went on to complete Master's Degree in Social Work from Valdosta State University in 2018 and sought professional licensure in 2022. I have spent the past 7 years providing social services to an array of populations including at risk newborns, geriatrics, and adults- in both inpatient & outpatient settings. I have loved every minute of it. The thing about working with a therapist is that we are not "one size fits all". If you have had a bad experience with therapy/a therapist in the past, don't let that skew your experiences moving forward. Give me a chance to work with you on forgiveness, gratitude, self-acceptance, anger management, reducing anxiety, and easing depressive symptoms. A little more about me: I have been married to my high school sweetheart since 2012 and we have 2 elementary school aged girls. In my free time, I enjoy travelling, reading, exploring the outdoors, and spending time with my family. I am also a big foodie-a good meal is the key to my heart! The goal of life is not to merely survive; the goal is to thrive

My name is Kyle, I go by my middle name. I am licensed in Georgia with 12 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with, but not limited to, stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, lgbtq+ related issues, & coping with grief and loss. I believe entering therapy is starting an alliance based on trust by the communication of feelings, thoughts, and behaviors. This communication goes both ways, from client to therapist, and therapist to client. The need for such an alliance typically results from some part(s) of life becoming unmanageable or unclear. It is my role as a counselor to help you navigate these concerns, set goals, and to foster more effective coping skills to manage stress. Guarantees in counseling are limited, however I can assure you that I will do everything I can with my training and experience to help you achieve your goals. I graduated from The University of Georgia with bachelor’s degrees in psychology and history in 2004. Then worked for The Marcus Institute, as a Primary Therapist for clients with autism spectrum disorders and other ongoing behavioral health concerns for two and a half years. I moved to New York City, New York in 2007. There I was employed with Partnership of Innovative Comprehensive Care, Inc. as a Case Manager Supervisor, assisting other case managers with caseloads of clients with developmental, intellectual, and mental health disorders. I returned home to South Georgia in 2011 and received a Master of Science in Clinical/Counseling Psychology from Valdosta State University. During this time, I worked as a Graduate Teaching Assistant along with interning at Behavioral Health Services of South Georgia. After graduation I worked at Crescent Pines/Anchor Hospital and The DeKalb Community Service Board as an Admission/Intake Counselor from 2012 to 2014. After this I started as an admission Counselor at Ascena Health (St. Jude’s Recovery Center, Inc.) in 2014. In 2015 I accepted a position as a therapist (clinician) providing one on one therapy and case management to individuals in both residential and outpatient treatment. In 2018, I received my Professional Counselor License. After this I continued as a therapist assisting clients with both substance use and mental health disorders in residential and outpatient care. In 2019 I accept a position as the Medication Assisted Treatment coordinator and residential manager supervisor. Within the same year I also started an outpatient program assisting in the reentry of federal offenders on probation. In 2023 I accepted the position of Director of clinical services, overseeing all clinical and residential programs within the agency. Later that year I started my own private practice, where I continue providing professional care and services to individuals with addictive, behavioral, and mental health disorders.

Some other commonly asked questions on therapy with a licensed counselor and BetterHelp serving the Johns Creek area can be found below:

How does the cost of in-person counseling with a therapist compare to the cost of BetterHelp with a licensed Johns Creek therapist?

The average price of an in-person therapy session in the US with most therapists is $100 to $200 per hour. These prices may be higher in Johns Creek due to a higher cost of living, and a limited number of therapists taking new clients. The price also depends on the type of provider you are looking for. See the following average prices for various mental health providers without insurance:

  • Counseling with a psychiatrist: $150-$500
  • Counseling with therapists: $100-300
  • Therapy with a psychologist: $100

While many psychologists in Johns Creek may not take health insurance, some in the state of Georgia may work on a sliding scale, meaning they'll factor in your income and charge what you can afford per session. With a BetterHelp therapist throughout the state of Georgia you can expect significantly more affordable options, with therapists sessions ranging from $65 to $100 per week (billed every four weeks).

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in Johns Creek?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a Johns Creek therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors and therapists are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

Therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of Johns Creek therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A Johns Creek therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in GA, therapists may be booked out with clients.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a Johns Creek counselor?

Before seeing your Johns Creek therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, you can let our therapists know if you have any concerns or feel unsure about what to talk about. Johns Creek therapists here may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what it might entail. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or specific condition. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback. A Johns Creek licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find with a Johns Creek counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in Johns Creek, Georgia can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

Johns Creek has many clinicians who practice person or client-centered individual therapy in-person and through online sessions to assist clients in their healing journey. If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
