Family Systems Therapists in Atlanta, GA

I work with women and couples using a variety of approaches to address relational and personal concerns. My clients often seek couples or marriage counseling at a point where they believe their relationships are beyond repair. Communication has broken down, they lack trust, and intimacy no longer exists. Giving yourselves a chance to address this in therapy increases your chance of resolution. The goal of individual therapy to empower you to be your best self and find passion and joy in life. We’ll address everything you’re feeling, explore new options, and together develop a plan to help you reach your dreams and self-potential.

When you’re struggling, as a couple or individually, it can feel overwhelming, lonely and sometimes downright debilitating. Do you get stuck in the same, old patterns, worry about the future, regret or re-live the past? Do you wonder if you can ever truly, be happy? Do you think that, “relationships and life are just hard”. It doesn’t HAVE to be this way! As a therapist whose been working in the field for over 25 years I’ve guided both individuals and couples to grow, change and live lives they love, over and over!

Beginning therapy can be overwhelming and I aim to make the process feel authentic and comfortable. I welcome adult and adolescent clients, their families and significant others who are motivated to learn about themselves, improve their relationships and transform their lives. I am fat-positive and use a Health At Every Size (HAES) approach, am welcoming to all gender and sexual identities, races, religions, and cultural backgrounds and am an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community. I work with clients going through a wide range of difficulties including addiction, grief/loss, eating disorders, negative body image and relationship problems.

I believe you are on the journey to become who you already are and who you are is infinitely complex. Often times external influences, circumstances, events, or relationships block you from living in the fullness of your complexity, and this can lead to psychological distress. I work with clients and couples to surface these conscious and unconscious barriers to growth so that you can lead a life responsive to who you are rather than reactive to what is going on around you. My hope is that, together, you discover not just relief from symptoms but optimal psychological functioning and deeply satisfying relationships.

I offer different types of therapeutic avenues to explore, rework, release and address challenges old or new. We decide the timetable and scope of therapy together whether very focused change is desired or more in depth reworking is wanted. Some people also use therapy to maintain positive gains and have a unique place to speak/ find the truth in a safe, trusting environment. The focus is on enhancing and building on strengths to realize potential based on needs. I use brainspotting, polyvagal informed therapy (Unyte/ILS listening system) and IFS(Internal Family Systems) to deeply and often more rapidly release blocked/frozen issues

Adversity is a part of life, but that does not mean we have to face it alone. I help clients to take charge of pursuing their goals while fostering a supportive and healthy atmosphere. I work with children, adolescents, parents, and families in their journey toward enhancing their mental health. By using the family systems approach, I have a clear understanding of how clients experiencing difficult relationships, traumatic events, transitions, bullying or how school stress can affect the entire family. I help clients refine their communication with their support system as well as practice healthy coping skills.

Feeling "stuck" in areas of your life: school, relationships, work, or family can leave you feeling hopeless and in despair. It may also create feelings of anxiety, sadness, fear, loneliness and distress. We are all capable of improving the quality of our lives when we learn how to embrace challenges and overcome obstacles/self-doubts in order to create opportunities. Anthony provides a warm, safe, and supportive environment in which his clients can explore the issues and challenges they face.

I work primarily with children, teens, and young adults experiencing stress and anxiety, executive functioning deficits, identity confusion, mood disorders, grief and loss, and life adjustment challenges (i.e. separation/divorce). By providing a safe, non-judgmental environment, clients can effectively express, explore, and process their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I believe every client is equipped with a unique set of strengths and skills that can help them overcome adversity. By helping clients rework negative perceptions of events in their lives or of themselves, clients can move to a more regulated state.

As a professional counselor I value the uniqness of each person and in the strength and creativity of the human spirit. Within the counseling relationship is a safe place to define areas for growth, vent feelings, explore the many possibilities, find encouragement and move toward peacefulness.

My approach draws on a number of theoretical orientations that best suit the group or individual needs.

I typically work with individuals with various diagnoses, couples struggling with marital issues and families navigating divorce, blended families, co-parenting, grief, insomnia, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, and OCD. I am well-suited, competent, and clinically trained in a variety of treatment approaches including but not limited to CBT, Trauma, attachment injury, internal family systems, DBT, and childhood trauma. I have an interest in working with substance misuse, and all types of addiction, including gambling and increasingly common tech porn.

Thank you for reading my counseling profile. Counseling is a personal and sacred experience in which finding the right counselor is important.

My objective is to be a professional companion to help you feel better and resolve issues. I look forward to the possibility of working with you and walking part of the road together!

If you are someone who is ready to take the leap and share parts of your story with me, then I will be honored to listen; whether its to talk through trauma, substance abuse, relationship issues, depression and even processing what it means to be a 2nd generation American. The therapeutic relationship is what we will create to help heal and restore what's broken. In its place is a person empowered to believe they can overcome. If your goal is to get through your issues while making room for self-discovery then this is something we can do together.

My therapeutic focus is on relationships, individuals, and couples. The goal of my practice is to help clients experience healthy relationships and peace within by integrating Christian theology and psychology. Since successful relationships begin with a clear perspective of self, I emphasize the importance of boundaries, attachment patterns, self-esteem, and emotional awareness and regulation. Individual deep work, talk therapy, and family systems therapy challenge practices of thinking, feeling, and relating. My strengths include establishing rapport through respect, empathetic listening, and a safe environment to explore old wounds and new frontiers with a specialty in Christian spirituality in counseling.
