Stress Therapists in Georgia

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 6 years of experience as a practicing therapist. I graduated from Valdosta State University earning my Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and Master of Science degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I chose to become a Marriage and Family Therapist because of the systemic and relational approach that is used in problem resolution. I believe that problems aren’t just in you or outside of you, but within the relationship in between. To date, I have experience with working with clients within private practice, in-home, and inpatient settings. It’s my goal at Transparent Truth Counseling Services to help clients learn narratives that keep them strained, unlearn unhealthy patterns and behaviors, and relearn narratives or preferred TRUTHS that will better suit their lifestyle. If you experience thoughts like: "I'm not good enough." "I'm not doing enough." "I feel anxious about the unknown." "I feel depressed trying to measure up with expectations." "I should have this by now." I am here to help you live life on your terms by helping you redefine what it means to be "enough." I look forward to unpacking your reality or truth and help co-create a narrative that fits for you!  

Are you a woman that has done everything expected and more, but it never feels like enough, and your life is far from what you hoped? Everyone thinks that you have it all together, but inside you feel overwhelmed by your responsibilities. You realize that you have given everything to your relationships, but you struggle to lean into them because you don’t feel supported. You know that you want to do things differently and be different, but you are unsure of what that even looks like. It is possible for you to cultivate a life you genuinely love, with the people that matter the most, by gaining a deeper sense of who you are. Therapy should be a safe space where you can grow, flourish, and heal. Our sessions will help you learn to see the big picture so you can shift your perspective, get clear about what matters, and create lasting change in your life and relationships. We will focus on the whole of who you are so you can truly be whole and step into your power and purpose. As an experienced women’s therapist, I believe you can resist shrinking yourself to make others comfortable, have confidence managing life’s ups and downs, and prioritize your needs guilt free. Our work will help you develop the tools to create positive, lasting changes that honor your values and wellbeing. Visit my website to schedule a free consultation.

"Although I prescribe psychiatric medications such as antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, and ADHD medications, it does not mean that I believe medications will help everyone or solve all of your problems. After your initial evaluation, I will give you reliable information about whether a medication is likely to help, its potential risks, and the alternative treatments. I may strongly recommend a medication, suggest it as a possible option, or conclude that medication is not likely to help you at all. We will discuss your lifestyle, such as diet, exercise, alcohol/substance use, and stress-management strategies"
