Therapists for college students near 30309

Everyone deserves a space that is completely dedicated to them. As a therapist, my goal is to provide just that—a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you can be your authentic self. I work with college students navigating a variety of topics, including anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, interpersonal/family conflict, self-esteem, transitions, and more. I approach therapy by considering how your environment has impacted you, meaning we will explore how your past and present circumstances have shaped your perspectives, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. I draw from numerous therapeutic techniques and theories, tailoring your treatment to fit the unique person that you are. College life can be both exciting and overwhelming, with unique challenges, social pressures, and identity exploration. No matter the current challenge, I am passionate about helping my clients cultivate greater self-awareness, resilience, and well-being, empowering them to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives. Let's get started! **Please note: I offer a free phone consultation to help you decide if I may be a good fit for your therapy journey!**

I am a student counseling intern at a private practice in Tucker Georgia. As a student intern, I am seeking clients, which means two great things for you! 1. I have a significant amount of supervision and guidance. 2. This is a very low-cost to free option. I have a bachelor’s degree in psychology and am working towards my Master of Social Work and complete that in May. I am dedicated to creating a welcoming and affirming environment for individuals of all backgrounds and experiences. I believe in providing a judgment-free space where clients feel safe to express themselves fully and authentically. I am particularly passionate about working with LGBT clients and individuals questioning their gender or sexuality. My goal is to offer compassionate support as they explore their identities and navigate life’s challenges. Whether facing anxiety, depression, grief, or significant life transitions, I am here to help clients build resilience, develop coping strategies, and move toward personal growth and healing. I am committed to walking alongside my clients through their struggles, offering tools and insights to foster emotional well-being and healthier relationships. My approach is informed by a range of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Internal Family Systems.

My name is Sarah Bowman and I want to help my clients feel empowered in making positive changes in their lives through a nonjudgmental and compassionate therapeutic style. I create a safe space for individuals and couples to explore their current and past relationships and link common experiences over time. My goal is for clients to find acceptance in the present while confronting behaviors and thought patterns that are not working for them. I believe that every person is capable of change and I want to help guide my clients through their struggles to a healthier life.

Life can be full of instability and stuck spots, especially with the world in such flux. I am a psychotherapist that uses talk therapy, creative expression, and embodied techniques to help people get unstuck and move through tough times. We'll work together to bring out your strengths and strategize to solve problems. Some clients are comfortable with creative therapy techniques (such as art and drama) and others prefer to focus on talking things through -- we will work to find an approach that feels right to you. I'm committed to compassion, understanding and honesty. I'll work within your comfort but also challenge you to work hard for yourself. I invite you to reach out via email or phone to see if I'm a good fit for you!

I am a therapist with over 13 years of clinical experience. I hold the belief that we are constantly learning and evolving from our life events. We become stronger as we grow through these experiences and learn more about ourselves. Self-acceptance and self-awareness are key to being able to live freely. Our sessions will be a journey of self-discovery. I will be here to guide and support you during this process. Therapy is a safe space for you to be able to express and process your feelings. You will learn to identify triggers to negative feelings and behaviors as well as build coping skills. During the therapeutic process, you will experience clarity and growth. Prior to therapy most people desire to get back to their old self again, but therapy is actually about forward movement. We take experiences and learn from them. Wellness includes your mind, body, and soul. We do not function our best when one of these aspects is out of sync. Whether you need therapy, health coaching, or life coaching, I am here to guide and support you to meet your goals.

I offer in-person and telehealth services and specialize in anxiety, sexual trauma, grief/loss, and family relationships. I understand that sometimes making the first phone call can be intimidating, but I listen without judgment or criticism and ensure a welcoming, relaxed style that helps to minimize fear and support your goals.

Feeling overwhelmed? Do not know exactly where to start? Does life seem unfair or not fun anymore? "The stresses of it all" seem overbearing, does it appear that you have it all together but on the inside, you feel that you may be falling apart. If you have become everything to everyone except yourself and may have lost who you really are or who you would like to become. Life's opportunities come in different packaging and presentations; however, our choices, and how we manage our choices matter the most. At Healthy Life Choices, GA I work with you from right where you are inside of your journey.

I work with children, teen, and adult clients on a variety of challenges, including behavioral issues, anxiety, depression, trauma, and more. As a young professional, I believe myself to be uniquely able to connect with the needs and culture of today's teens and young adults. I also consider myself an ally to all racial groups as well as the queer community. As a therapist with a commitment to lifelong learning, I know it is my responsibility to approach issues of diversity with humility, empathy, and openness. My primary therapeutic approaches are cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness strategies. CBT involves examining the relationship between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and finding ways to disrupt patterns in our lives that bring us distress. Exploring the mind-body connection is also helpful for alleviating symptoms of anxiety and stress. We all exist at the unique intersection of our many different identities, experiences, and traits. No two people will experience the world in exactly the same way. If you're searching for a therapist who knows that you are the expert of your own experience and wants to help you identify and reach your goals, reach out today to see if we might be a good fit.

Resiliency is the ability to bend and not break when things get really difficult. It is our inner ability to get back up when life knocks us down. While we all have innate Resiliency, sometimes we need to be reminded of how to find it, let alone create the strength to use it. At Resiliency Therapy Services, that is how we want to support you: finding your Resiliency and encourage coping in spite of what life throws at you. If you aren't feeling like yourself, and have noticed changes in your motivation, focus and functioning, we are a great place to start. As the owner of Resiliency Therapy Services, helping clients find their inner strength is my passion. As a therapist, I connect with clients and use talk therapy and nonverbal interventions to support behavior change and promote coping. I work with clients of many age levels, from children to adult. I, as well as all my therapists at Resiliency Therapy Services, are LGBTQ+ affirming and have additional training to support the unique experience of our LGBTQ+ clients. Regardless of age, identity or presenting problem, we support clients in adjusting to life after emotional upset, significant change, or trauma. This might include grief counseling (including clients facing acute and chronic illness), or addressing depression and anxiety. Finding the right fit for you to find and build upon your Resiliency is important; please call today for a free phone consultation!

Recognizing every small achievement is essential to continued growth. Often times we allow the achievements to be overshadowed by the weight of the world. Our goal is to assist you in coping with that weight and using the skills you already possess to navigate this ever changing world. We are all stronger than we realize and more capable than we give ourselves credit for. Our differences are to be respected and our life experiences should be valued.

Finding a therapist you feel comfortable with and trust can be very challenging. Painful life experiences, past trauma and current situations can cause you to feel stuck, depressed and anxious. You may have noticed changes in your relationships, work, mood or self-esteem. Feeling understood and supported is of highest importance when navigating through life challenges. As such, I am dedicated to protecting your trust and providing you with emotional safety as you undertake the vulnerable yet enriching journey of therapy. I focus on developing a deep understanding of your unique experience within a space of openness and non-judgment. In addition to improving and alleviating your specific symptoms, I seek to empower you through increased awareness and choice, alignment with core values and life-meaning, & better coping skills. An interesting note about me is that I am a third generation MSW. My papa, Leonard Cohen, received his MSW from the University of Pittsburgh and went on to become the Executive Director of Jewish Family and Career Services in Atlanta for many years. My mother, Deborah Cohen LCSW, currently has her own private practice in the Lawrenceville, GA area.

I am a trauma-informed clinician who incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), psychodynamic principles and person-centered therapy into my work with clients. I enjoy working with teens and adults. While I believe technique and theory are important components in healing and growing, I think that the relationship between myself and the people I work with is the most important part of therapy.

It takes courage to be open and vulnerable. I cherish the moment a client decides to share their vulnerabilities with me, or when a child invites me to play along. I know these moments bring about trust, and a client’s trust means everything to me. My overall goal with each session is to provide a safe and accepting environment while empowering clients to become the best versions of themselves. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Registered Play Therapist. Additionally, I have completed specialized training with Postpartum Support International which allows me to assist women throughout their motherhood journey. My areas of specialty include: anxiety, depression, life-changes, grief, low self-esteem, anger, parenting struggles, family of origin issues, behavioral challenges, and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. I work with children (ages 3-6), adolescents, women, and parents. I utilize a strengths-based approach and tailor sessions based on individual needs. My approach incorporates techniques from Adlerian Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to forming a trusting relationship with you.

I spent 15 years supporting college students through every step of their journey. I worked with students struggling to adjust to being away from home, family, and friends; experiencing challenges with faculty or roommates; deciding on a major/career path; learning to be organized and follow a syllabus; developing better study and test taking strategies; or learning to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenge.

“I can’t do it” “There is nothing left to look forward to” “This will define me” “Why is this happening to me?” These are the phrases I often hear among the individuals and families who come into the therapy room. In a world filled with challenges and uncertainty, I help facilitate the transition from living a life in fear to experiencing a sense of freedom despite any circumstance. I am deeply passionate about coming alongside children, teenagers, and young adults who may feel isolated, hurt, stuck, or any other more complex emotion. Using both direct and empathetic communicative approaches, I create safe spaces for my clients to process their feelings, build upon their strengths, and reach their goals. I recognize that counseling is not a one size fits all approach. I always believe that you are more than your circumstances and that those do not define you. By integrating various techniques, we will work together to find what is the most effective treatment for you! I invite you to provide feedback in order to get what you want out of our time together. I want you to be able to have a voice because, ultimately, you are the expert on yourself and I am here to support your individual journey. I hope to create a safe space for you to process the past, be able to live in the present and help instill hope for the future. I anticipate that we can work together to create change for you that lasts a lifetime. Candidly, I am no stranger to the feeling of being on the other side of the couch and acknowledge the strength and vulnerability it takes for you to reach out! My calling to this career came from my own therapy journey as I struggled with anxiety and depression as a teenager. I remember feeling isolated and alone in a chaotic world when nothing seemed to get better. With this struggle, it has been my life goal to become a therapist to help children, teenagers, and young adults like myself who experience anxiety, depression, or challenging experiences. I find genuine joy in being able to come alongside individuals to see their growth. I hope that we are able to work together to help you overcome these challenges of anxiety and depression to help you flourish.
