Female Therapists in Concord, GA

Hello. My name is Judith Ashworth, and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I just retired from the Wellstar hospital system, where I had been working for 20 years, mostly as a behavioral health and clinician. I ran groups and provided assessment and individual brief therapy on their inpatient unit or but within Path, I am looking forward to doing rational emotive behavioral therapy or REBT. This will provide quicker progress. I have been pretty successful working on addiction, depression, and OCD. I feel comfortable working with severe psychiatric disorders as well. But I know that's not what this forum is all about.

Hello there! Here is the message to my new clients: I want you to be happy and succeed. I want you to know it is very possible and all I need from you is your willingness to do the work - a little  but consistent work under my supervision. Allow me to guide you in the process. Even professional athletes are working constantly to maintain and improve their performance. I will teach you how to manage your emotions, your behavior, resolve past/childhood wounds and how to get the best out of yourself, your relationships and the life in general. I am here to teach you skills you will apply independently for the rest of your life.

During our lives, we often experience emotional pain and adversity that leaves us feeling hopeless, powerless, or directionless. We might feel we are broken and need to be ‘fixed’. Therapy provides a path towards understanding ourselves more and increasing skills that can help us feel more able to handle difficult experiences and find growth. It helps us realize that we can find peace in the parts of life we do not like so that the parts that we love can shine. It is about finding acceptance in the uncomfortable times, and in being and becoming more of our unique selves.

I am Kristina Joseph, a Licensed Clinical Social worker. My main goal is to meet the client where they are in their mental health journey.

I use different best practices techniques in order to help my clients where they are at the point of the first session as well as the 100th session.

Hi! My name is Angela Hogg. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 25 years of experience in helping individuals overcome life’s challenges. I have extensive experience in treating depression, anxiety, grief, self-esteem issues, and marital/family issues. I practice Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, as I believe our thoughts and behaviors are connected and affect one another. I also provide Christian Counseling, as I am a Christian, and that does affect my paradigm. I approach therapy with you being an active participant in the process. I will help you to identify problems and together we’ll come up with plans to create change.

I am a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) for the State of Georgia. I enjoy working with clients who are facing problems with infertility, women's issues, or loss of a child. Previously, I have worked with a variety of clients, but decided to focus solely on women's health after experiencing my own miscarriage and subsequent infertility issues. My treatment approach is holistic and eclectic. I believe that therapy should never be a "one-size fit all" approach. Everyone heals differently and my goal is to personalize my approach to optimize your growth and overall well-being.

We all deserve to be seen, to be heard, and to be supported without the fear of judgement. I believe that our life is like a story- comprised of triumphs/hardships, gains/losses, love/pain and more. Often we start to tell ourselves stories about our experiences that can hold us back from reaching our goals and living our authentic lives. As a therapist, I aim to help clients deconstruct the story line that is not supportive to them, and instead start constructing ones for their preferred reality and identity. My foundational belief is that we are separate entities from our problems, and we have strength and resiliency inside us.
