Are you feeling stuck in your career, relationships, or life in general? Do you long for a life filled with purpose and hope? Our past experiences, addictions, self-deceptions, and everyday challenges can leave us feeling hopeless and disconnected from ourselves and our loved ones. Do you dream of a life worth living? Do you have goals and values you want to achieve? Do you aspire to live authentically, aligned with your core values? You know where you want to go but need guidance—a roadmap and the right tools. You need a partner to walk alongside you, cheer you on, hold you accountable, and explore ways you can help yourself.

Greetings! I am a fully licensed clinical social worker in Georgia since 2011, with certifications in oncology and palliative care. I became a therapist because I want to help people find their way and their voice through life’s challenges, particularly those whose lives are impacted by cancer, chronic or terminal illness, or grief and loss. In difficult times, finding solace and empathy is essential. I believe we all have the capacity to grow and pursue a life with meaning, especially when facing a crisis. Compassion, honesty, and humor all factor into my approach in helping you discover (or remember) your resilience and strength.

I am passionate about supporting people at all stages of life, from starting college to starting a family, to retiring. I have been a therapist for over 20 years, & currently balance parenting, career, & a busy family. I help new moms dealing with postpartum depression or anxiety and parents dealing with stages of parenting from infants & toddlers to big kids, tweens& teens, to launching young adults. I can help those adjusting to an empty nest or sandwiched between caring for kids and caring for their own aging parents. I can also help young adults adjust to college, especially with ADHD who struggle with executive functioning.

Life can be filled with a lot of difficulty but it doesn’t need to be so overwhelming or confusing! If you feel numb, overwhelmed, or sad for no reason, then you are not alone. Finding relief and peace in these struggles is possible through therapy. As a therapist I believe in being a friend and a guide by providing tools to improve mental health, coping skills, opportunities to process emotions/events, and even space for venting if needed. I am LGBTQIA+ friendly and work primarily with adolescents and young adults who have/had experienced depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, sexual abuse, grief, and religious trauma.

When addressing mental health, it is vital to acknowledge the influence of the environment around us. In recent years, the world has presented us with numerous challenges. I believe in taking a holistic approach to therapy that considers individual experiences as well as the influence of family, community, and society. By exploring these various dimensions, we can uncover insights and develop effective strategies to more easily navigate life. I work collaboratively and compassionately to support clients dealing with grief, anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

As a therapist, I am committed to walking the journey with my clients. Together we explore and process the elements in life that challenge them and keep them from living their best life. Taking the first steps in seeking therapy can be challenging, but through building a trusting interpersonal connection between client and therapist the rest becomes easier!

I work individuals and couples to help build better relationships and coping strategies for times of conflict and change. Having worked for several years with substance abuse groups along with anger management and family violence intervention, I have helped people of all ages to move beyond the negative self talk and low self esteem in order to be successful and thriving in their personal lives and relationships with others. I also offer EMDR to address trauma. Because I believe there is not a single way to deal with life, I like to meet my clients where they are in their own lives and help them to accomplish their personal goals.

Hello! I'm so glad you're here! I work with folks who have learned to survive and navigate the world by making themselves small, putting their heads down, and doing the hard things that no one else will. They are intelligent, resourceful, and strong, so it is tempting to feel like if they try harder, think more, or be less themselves- all their feelings, challenges, or circumstances will change. But that hasn't been working. Often, they find themselves at the end of their rope, exhausted, disappointed, and unable to trust anyone- even themselves. If that sounds like you, I’m here to tell you- you are not alone.

What makes today different? Today is different because you said to yourself, "Hey, I really need to do something about this. I'm going to to talk to somebody." Hi! I’m Dr. Leslie Ring. Some clients come to me because the bottom just fell out of their lives, a setback at work, a betrayal discovered, or the death of a loved one. For others, they just don’t want to keep living like this anymore. Old hurts from childhood or previous relationships keep robbing them of their peace of mind, creativity, fun, and closeness with others.
