Therapists in Austell, GA

Hi there! Remain Connected Counseling is a faith based counseling practice. We have a holistic view for healing: body, soul, and spirit. We love getting the opportunity to guide people in their journey of personal healing and self discovery. Our heart as a team of therapists is to help people connect with God, themselves, and others so they can find fulfillment and purpose. We love listening to clients, helping you find solutions, psycho-educating you about emotions and most of all creating a safe place to process and attain healing.

I provide an authentic therapeutic alliance with my clients. We work together to transform painful emotions into empowering energy needed for healing and balance. My manner is warm, positive and direct. I believe healing is always possible when we are allied with the right support system. I provide a safe and judgement-free experience for all!

I have a passion for helping people move through their individual seasons of life. I enjoy providing a space for clients to explore how their life experiences, both past and present, are influencing who they are and how they can move forward with living a life with purpose. Bringing awareness to change is an opportunity to investigate personal grow and evolve regardless of your ‘season’, which can be overwhelming when we want to feel heard and supported. While working with me, I will strive to collaborate with you and provide empathy, honest communication, and support in the therapeutic process.

Do you struggle with anxiety that affects your day-to-day life? Do you feel overwhelmed by your relationship and worry that you’ll make the wrong decision? Have you had life changes that have been difficult to accept? Do you question if your anxiety will always impact your life? You’re not alone. While it can feel isolating, you’re not the only one experiencing anxiety and uncertainty. And, things can get better.

The Populations I have had Experience working with include but are not limited to: Adolescents and Teens: ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, ODD, Anger Challenges, Challenges with Compliance to Rules, Probation/Legal Involvement, Trauma 2. Athletes: Performance Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Depression, Adjustment Disorder, Communication Challenges, mood swings, Trauma 3. Adults: Anxiety, Depression, Psychosis, Trauma, Grief, Addiction, Impulse Control, Couples, Families, LGBTQ+

It’s so hard to come to terms with all the difficult experiences. The moments of feeling unseen, unheard, or unworthy can be painful. You want so much to step into the future, but the fear of the uncertainty is holding you back. The weight of past experiences can feel like an anchor, preventing you from moving forward. It's common to feel stuck and overwhelmed, unsure of how to break free from this cycle. The pain of feeling misunderstood or alone in your struggles can make it even harder. Yet, acknowledging these feelings is the first step toward healing. You deserve to be heard, seen, and supported on this journey.

The demands of life can become overwhelming and even hard to manage alone. Stress related to life transitions, struggling to maintain healthy relationships, or even experienced trauma can lead to increased anxiety, depression, or difficulty coping with life’s demand. My goal as your counselor is to co-create with you the life that you are wanting to achieve. While working together we will have an opportunity to explore the thoughts, feelings, experiences, fears, uncertainties, and anything else you need in your life to help cultivate a resolution, clarity, peace, and happiness.

My therapeutic style is empathetic, energetic, relatable, approachable, and passionate. I know therapy can be scary, so I try to create a safe and positive environment. Clients will feel that I’m truly in their corner while not shying away from pointing out blind spots to aid in their growth. My ideal patient is someone who truly wants to break cycles, heal, and do the work to feel better holistically.

Are you tired of being the “strong friend”? The one that everyone knows they can depend on, and so rarely experiencing this in return. Are you struggling silently and maybe a bit confused about it all? Do you feel the need to constantly “do better” or “do more”? Even though deep down you know that you are doing so much already, yet for some reason, you continue to feel inadequate or out of place. Are you ready to heal a relationship? Do you feel that there may be a past trauma that is preventing you from your own healing? Are you navigating new life transitions? Are you ready to talk with someone about your depression or anxiety?

Greetings! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia with over 10 years of experience in the behavioral health field. I have worked with all groups ranging from ages four to geriatric. I have also worked in various settings to include medical hospitals, psychiatric inpatient hospitals, outpatient treatment, court, and classroom settings. I have been able to provide support to clients experiencing depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, stress management, relationship issues, and life transitions. My counseling style is warm, non-judgmental, empathetic, and client-centered.

Your trauma does not define you. You define you. You are the author of your own book. It is possible to heal once and for all, regardless of your adverse experiences. Now is the time to re-write your narrative! There are challenges in life that may cause you to get off course, but I believe everyone has the ability to overcome these obstacles and get their lives back on a track for success. Everyone’s journey is different. I pride myself in offering a safe space where transformation & renewal can take place. Healing and Restoration can start here!

As a counselor with Clinical Mental Health training from Richmont Graduate University, I specialize in guiding teens and young adults through their unique challenges. For teens, I address anxiety stemming from social, school, and family dynamics, providing the necessary support to navigate these changes. For young adults, I assist in the transition from college to career, including complexities in dating, family, and work, offering a safe space to explore self-identity and achieve life goals.

As a therapist, I strive to work authentically and collaboratively with clients to cultivate a space where clients can freely explore their thoughts, feelings, and relationships. As someone who believes that as humans we are wired for connection, my approach to therapy is rooted in relational-cultural and strengths-based approaches that are framed within a multicultural context. My goal is to help clients strengthen their connections to themselves, others, and the world. We will work hard together to help you reach your therapy goals.

Sometimes life seems overwhelming, and it appears that there is no light at the end of your tunnel- but hold on, help is here.
