Therapists in Atlanta, GA

You may be seeking therapy to help remove or change issues which are causing you discomfort. In addition to therapy helping you cope and reduce your distress, the process of self-discovery within the therapeutic relationship can lead to an increased understanding and acceptance of yourself. It can also lead to an expansion of comfort with all aspects of yourself. I am a clinical psychologist with 30 years’ experience working with adults and young adults in individual and couples therapy. I am also a certified EMDR therapist.

If you are feeling stuck, playing small, or wondering if this is it, I'd love to talk with you! You don't have to play by everyone else's rules. You can release that which no longer serves you and step into your most beautiful expression of you. (I know because I've done it!) If traditional therapy has left you wanting more, my style of coaching, energy healing, and therapy might be a good option to explore. I believe that when we start living our most authentic lives, the old conditioned self that used to be in charge takes a back seat and we all enjoy the journey a bit more.

Do you find yourself overwhelmed by worry and fear, no matter what you do? You might be telling yourself that you should be stronger or should be able to handle everything life throws your way. These "shoulds" can lead to feeling disconnected from the people in your life, decreased focus and motivation, problems caring for yourself, and increased use of alcohol or other substances to avoid unhappy thoughts and feelings. Beginning the process of therapy can help you gain compassion for and a better understanding of yourself, as well as develop skills to handle life's difficult times in a healthier way.

Patients come to me when they have hit speed bumps in their lives - in their careers and relationships - where previous ways of behaving and thinking to manage feelings no longer work to their satisfaction. Typically, I work with people who may seem to others as prosperous relationally and successful occupationally, but experience themselves to be demoralized or inexplicably anxious, behaving in atypical ways, and often not thinking as clearly as they would like.

I take a holistic approach to mental health care, listen without judgment, and will work with you to get the most out of life, no matter your circumstances. My approach to therapy uses an integrated theoretical orientation incorporating various research supported therapies as I strive to help my clients integrate all aspects of well-being within themselves. Drawing from different therapeutic modalities allows me to provide personalized care that addresses each person’s unique needs.

Welcome to therapy! I want to assist you on your journey to create and maintain balance and manage lived experiences to find peace and clarity in your life. While I believe that, given time, you can manage all that life throws at you, I also believe that often we all need a little help. That's where our partnership can help towards growth and the life you deserve. Together we will create a safe space for you to explore your challenges and your gifts and find a path to move forward.

Would you believe that many of our personal problems stem from our early childhood experiences? As an integrative mind-body psychotherapist, Jennifer helps clients navigate through a range of issues including abandonment, conflictual relationships and healing the inner wounded child. Jennifer enjoys working with clients on their shadow self, whether it be facing challenges related to depression, childhood issues which now require tools necessary, as an adult, to re-parent oneself or simply lifestyle and nutritional guidance. Her goal, from a holistic approach, is to meet each of her clients where they are.

Now Accepting Virtual Clients in 39 states! Check my website to see if I'm practicing near you. Congratulations! Your search landed you on the page of a trauma-informed, compassionate, and affirming psychologist. A proud Morehouse Man, my journey has taught me that life can hard and the road to success can be lonely-especially in settings that lack diversity. This is further complicated when asking for help is frowned upon because of cultural mistrust and expectations. Hesitation or unwarranted self-appraisal can result when, instead, you should be celebrating your many accomplishments, your strength and undying resiliency!

A mantra that resonates with me both personally and professionally is, “Do a brave thing every day.” I love working with clients who are motivated to self-discover and grow. I specialize in providing exposure therapy and other evidence-based treatments to individuals who struggle with problems related to OCD, trauma, anxiety, and fear-based difficulties. I also specialize in helping clients overcome tics, skin-picking, and trichotillomania. I use a flexible approach to individually tailor evidence-based tools and treatments to each client based on values, culture, and client needs.

I have experience working with depression, bipolar disorder, adjustment to life circumstances, anxiety, trauma, substance use, anger management, stress, communication skills, relationships and marriages, conflict resolution and provide a supportive approach to nourish recovery. Change is a journey and I strive to offer insight and awareness in targeting triggers, managing symptoms, and overcoming challenges. My approach is a collaborative one that allows us to focus on your needs by listening, understanding feelings, working through and processing symptoms, and ultimately empowering you to achieve the desired lifestyle you seek.

“It’s never too late to become the person you always wanted to be,” a quote by Anne Sweeney guides my work as a mental health professional. Whether you’ve tried therapy before with little success or this is your first venture into asking for help with life’s seemingly endless obstacles, I believe every day is a new opportunity to take a step towards fulfilling your unique destiny. In my work I use Natural Processing, a modality taking elements from EMDR and Somatic Experiencing to help clients work through a range of presenting issues by targeting how both the body and brain are affected by adverse experiences.

I have always been a helper. I have an unquenchable interest in people stories and struggles. With a natural curiosity, I enjoy learning about my clients experiences, options and how I may help them move forward. I am warm , friendly and maintain a mature outlook without judgment. I feel privileged to be trusted and a part of each of my client's journeys. In each session I will give a safe space for exploring pain and offer all I have to help move you forward.
