Why did you become a therapist, and what motivates you to continue?

I’ve always wanted a career where I worked closely with others and hoped to have an impact. I originally thought I’d work in law enforcement, but after graduating with a bachelors degree in Criminal Justice, I knew that wasn’t for me. Transitioning to focus on my minor in psychology, I felt an instant connection and continued on that educational path in grad school.  What keeps me going is seeing the growth of my clients. It’s an absolute privilege to be trusted to walk the journeys of every individual who I work with. 

Hi! I’m Kristin and I’m so glad you’re here.     I have a passion for helping and guiding people as they find their true, authentic selves through doing the hard work. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, addictions, and everyday stressors life brings.

I was in high school when I took my first psychology course and fell in love with it and decided this was my career path

Hello, I am a licensed Mental health counselor with 20+ experience in the field of psychology. Experience has included working with adults, children, adolescents and family. I am available to guide and support you in exploring life's challenges and together explore vulnerabilities and strengths in facing said challenges. My approach in sessions is very laid back yet focused on each person's need for different levels of guidance in meeting their goals. I use various approaches and styles given the circumstances and individual needs. It is very important for you to feel comfortable with the process, that being said, I will not go to a place you do not want to go...It is a privilege to embark on your counseling journey with you. Look forward to meeting you.

Having a desire to help people and offer strategies to make life worth living.

I became a therapist because I love the “aha” moment when people find something that fits, and I want to direct more people to that. 

Hi there! I’m a Colorado native, animal lover, and crime junkie. 

I decided to become a therapist when I was volunteering with a suicide prevention and crisis hotline in college. As someone that has personally struggled with mental health, I knew that there had to be supports out there and I wanted to be part of the solution. My continued motivation is inspired by how many new things I can learn each day from working with others.

My belief is that every person needs support to work through life’s most challenging problems, and therapy is just one avenue of support. I have experience working in diverse settings including detention center, community based, outpatient, school, in-home, and residential with a diverse range of clients ages three to late adulthood. I use a person-centered, strengths-based approach to create a collaborative, non-judgmental and empathetic environment, working toward the ultimate goals of each individual. My goal is to collaborate with individuals to promote healing and develop coping skills and self-management skills. Each individual I work with is the expert in their life, and I aim to help individuals feel heard, understood, supported, and empowered.

Witnessing and experiencing different forms of violence and trauma throughout my upbringing sparked my interest in the mental health field. I was specifically drawn to marriage and family therapy, as I find that the family unit and an individual’s role in that unit is a critical aspect to their emotional development. In my time as a psychotherapist, I’ve worked with HIV positive individuals and their families, youth transitioning out of the foster care system, young adults dealing with anxiety, depression, and self-esteem difficulties. I’ve also worked with adult criminal offenders who were reintegrating back into society. My passion is working with individuals who are motivated and seeking to expand their emotional growth.

Over the past 20 years I’ve worked with individuals in various stages of life. My undergraduate degree is in Psychology from California State University, Northridge, and I  earned my Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology, with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Therapy, from Pepperdine University. I  specializes in working with individuals struggling with depression, self-esteem difficulties, and trauma. My approach is strength based, trauma informed, and solution focused.

I became a therapist because I am interested in the 'why' of what makes people tick and how to use their qualities to make their lives better. I don't want to just talk, I want to collaborate so that you have the skills to keep moving forward in life, to keep growing, to accomplish whatever goal you set out to accomplish.

I am an eating disorder and DBT specialist with over 20 years of experience helping all kinds of clients re-claim their lives and their mental health.

 I have always felt a desire to help others in need and as a result went back to school to be able to help others who have experienced trauma, grief, anxiety and depression.

 My name is Alicia Thomas, MS, LPC. I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from University of Houston and a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology with a Specialization in Clinical Counseling from Capella University. As a therapist, I actively work to incorporate your personal experiences, thoughts and feelings into your therapeutic treatment.

I strongly feel that God called and created me to do Christian counseling. My life experiences help me understand that life isn’t always easy, but in the end is always worth it.  God has used my own experiences to help better understand and help others as they seek healing and recovery. 

I seek to provide the highest quality counseling services in an affordable, Christian environment. I believe that Christ is the center of healing and strive to glorify Him in all that I do. I have extensive experience working with recovery from substance abuse, PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, and BiPolar Disorders. Through collaboration with churches in our community, I am the most affordable private pay option in the Chattahoochee Valley. I blend Christian principles and proven counseling techniques together to provide an atmosphere that encourages true healing and clear way forward. I seek to share the love of Christ with all who come into my counseling office and trust Jesus to provide healing in His way and His time. I believe in redemption and new beginnings for all people.

I became a therapist because I enjoy helping others and have personal experience of how mental health issues can impact one's life.

Hi. I’m Tinyca Bryan. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of North Carolina. More specifically, I am someone who sparks change in people’s lives. I help individuals, who desire to experience clarity and confidence in their lives, but feel like their reality is one of hopelessness. I provide supportive counseling to these individuals by exploring their history and uncovering patterns that they may not be aware of so that they can begin to move forward, gain more control of their emotions and start living the life they thought to be unattainable. I know from my years of experience in working with adolescents and adults who struggle with issues related to anxiety, depression, grief, relational issues, low self-esteem, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and more, that there is hope and you have the ability to overcome and not only live life but thrive in it. If you are ready to do the work, you will be amazed at how capable you are to explore parts of yourself that you never new existed. The process of therapy can help you gain necessary skills that will aid in your personal growth. I applaud you for taking the first step towards improving your emotional well-being. I believe that each one of use are capable and deserving of fulfilled lives. I realize that it can be difficult to talk to someone you’re meeting for the first time. However, I value the innate self-determination of my clients and empower them to move at a pace which feels most comfortable.
