Therapists in 30307

I have been a therapist for nearly 40 years and continue to enjoy working with people who desire to make their lives more satisfying and fulfilling. We all have beliefs and patterns of behavior which do not serve us well, and might actually make us more miserable. I know that these beliefs and behaviors are our attempt to make things better, but that they are no longer useful. I also know that they can be changed with effort and patience.

There’s more to life than just working and caring for others. You struggled to build this life for yourself, but now there’s little joy in it. You feel disconnected, alone. You yearn to do more than just survive. You want to explore new parts of yourself, deepen your relationships, and find new energy for life. How can you get there when right now your plate is so full you’re barely making it through the day? Things can get better. I will walk with you through this time of awakening and help you refocus on your own needs as you journey toward the life you want. A life full of authenticity and connection.

For me, psychotherapy is offering patience, understanding, insight, acceptance, compassion, relationship, and a secure base to persons suffering from burdens too heavy to carry alone. I compare myself to a container into which my patients pour their unbearable feelings. My task is to detoxify these feelings and make them easier to understand and tolerate. I help my patients to use healthy relationships with others to meet their emotional needs and the emotional needs of others. To establish and maintain healthy relationships, we work in session on understanding our own and others’ mental states (wishes, feelings, intentions) and how these are connected to how we behave toward each other. Relationships tend to work better when we are able to understand our own and others’ minds and how our minds influence how we behave toward each other.

Are you a woman or couple struggling with sexual concerns or communication issues? Your friends and colleagues think you're the perfect couple. But inside you're filled with frustration and confusion. You'd think with the level of love and respect in your relationship that the sex part would work itself out, but not so much. What's happening between the sheets just isn't working, but you can't understand what's going wrong or how to begin fixing it. You need help, but you aren't sure if anyone would understand. Imagine finding a supportive space to explore your situation with someone who won't judge you. At all.

Life introduces a number of challenges and stressors that can be short-lived or persistent. Treatment involves exploring how you understand and engage with what you may be experiencing. Using a collaborative approach informed by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, my aim is to help clients manage distress with curiosity and acceptance, engage with what truly matters, and develop a more authentic relationship with the world around them.

Did you grow up hearing that only certain people seek therapy? Are you a high-achiever striving for success in your career or personal life, but are finding it increasingly challenging to maintain balance and well-being in your personal life? Are you feeling stuck in or burnt out of a job, relationship, or other situation? Through collaboration, we will work towards achieving your goals and unlocking your full potential. Together, we will navigate the challenges and celebrate the successes, fostering a sense of empowerment and resilience along the way.

While there is no shortage of financial experts who provide answers to quick wealth, credit score improvement, or money-saving hacks, there are few who address the important connection between mental health and personal finances. It is essential to recognize that money is a significant source of stress for many individuals. The perception of self-worth and value can often become intertwined with financial status. Additionally, the impact of money-related issues is multi-generational, with clients reporting a lack of open discussions about money within their families and the influence of inherited beliefs and behavioral patterns.

Telehealth Openings: Do you feel stressed, overwhelmed, or dissatisfied with your life? Are you trying to adjust to a change (e.g., break up, job change, grief)? Are you haunted by trauma or experiencing PTSD symptoms? Any of these can make daily life incredibly challenging and emotionally painful or lead to numbness. Perhaps you’ve tried different strategies on your own but still don’t feel better. I can help you work through your situation so that you feel less overwhelmed, more at peace and in control, and better able to focus on the best path forward for you. We can work together to help you feel better. www.anniebollini.com

My style is collaborative. The relationship between the client and therapist guides the work we will do together. By using a non-judgmental attitude and creating a safe place for you to feel heard, growth and insight can take place. Many times we find ourselves caught in patterns that no longer serve our well-being; sometimes it takes someone outside our lives to help us see how to change these patterns. Often rooted in the story of our past, these patterns keep us stuck in outdated ways of thinking. Therapy can be the process of liberation from these stuck patterns, but it does take a willingness to be uncomfortable.

Relationships are hard, and connection is possible. Sometimes how we cope with pain and stress become the source of more pain and stress. We repeat patterns in relationships, seek escape in negative behaviors, or generally feel stuck. Often these behaviors are responses to past trauma or to a narrative we tell ourselves. Identifying these patterns and knowing where to start is difficult and rewarding work. Engaging in therapy will help you address concerns and trauma, reduce worry and anxiety, decrease depression and sadness and cultivate a healthy relationship with yourself and your environment.

Everyone deserves a safe space. Our aim at All-1-Family is to provide a safe space for all persons, but in particular, LGBT+ identified persons in the Atlanta metro area to simply, be.

Are you ready for a change? Art therapy may be right for you. It is not always easy to express our feelings with words alone. There are many challenges life throws at us, but sometimes we can work through them best by doing what comes naturally - creating. In my experience everyone is a born creator. I can help you use art and artistic expression to confront your deepest fears and begin the process of healing. You may be stronger than you think.

Talk therapy is a process of listening to what each person comes to say. Though therapy may often begin with a precise problem, grievance, or impasse, the process can lead to a conversation about one’s desire. Actively listening and being curious about what one says allows this process to unfold. I see the process as a collaboration.

In all stages of life, we find ourselves in need of validation, support, and empathy. My aim is to provide you a safe/affirming space to share challenging life experiences and give you skills to navigate them. Seeking help is not easy and I applaud you for taking this first step. I strive to honor your unique identities and collaborate with you in examining how your backgrounds may impact your wellness. My clinical specialties include relationship concerns, family of origin concerns, adjustment difficulties, identity exploration, anxiety, and mood concerns.

Motherhood is hard - it's okay to admit that! It's also okay for mothers to reach out for support along the way. You don't have to figure it out alone.

If you experience frequent obsessive-compulsive behaviors, anxiety, depressed feelings or you feel, you and your spouse are growing apart in your relationship, it can cause severe distress and disruption in daily life, affecting your well-being. Making choices and finding meaning in life may have become difficult. In my private practice, I focus on individual treatment and couples counseling. I like to offer a strength-based and person-centered approach. In a collaborative therapeutic relationship, we will work together for you to reach your goals for therapy and learn how to use your strengths towards healing and personal growth.

Maybe you are ready to make a shift and looking for a safe space and meaningful therapeutic process to support you. Let's see if I am the right fit for you....I am easy to talk to, warm and authentic. You will feel it when you sit with me. I will support you as you (re)learn to trust yourself and cultivate the ability to listen closely to what you already know. My orientation is grounded in the belief that we are all born into this world with an innate ability to know deeply what we need. We develop layers of protection to survive this world, and I am here to help you get back to who you truly are.

The truth is, you're a total badass who has been pushing through pain and difficulty most of your life. Most people around you don't notice that you’re struggling, because you've been holding it all together so long. But all the struggle and the work to keep it "under wraps" is starting to wear on you. You're tired. You might feel numb and struggle to connect with those you love or feel constantly on-edge or anxious. You may even have flashbacks of your worst moments or developed chronic pain or syndromes. It's starting to feel impossible to keep "holding it all together."

My goal is to help my clients achieve optimal functioning by assisting them on their path to wellness. Therapy with me is is based on open, honest communication through meeting my client where they are in their journey and working together to achieve their goals.
