Therapists in Atlanta, GA

Are you wondering if therapy is the right choice for you or a loved one? It can be hard to make that step of trust, especially when you are faced with challenges in your life. I believe in a person’s total wellness. I want to be apart of helping others make connections between the wellness of the mind, body, and spirit.

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.

Hi, I'm Kristin Jones, a Licensed Professional Counselor based in the state of Georgia. I earned my undergraduate degree from Howard University and completed my Masters in Mental Health Counseling at New York University. With over a decade of experience in the field of mental health, my journey began in New York City, where I conducted community family therapy. Upon relocating to the Metro Atlanta Area and becoming licensed in Georgia, I continued my mission of working with families to create harmonious environments.

I am excited to connect with people who find themselves ready for a change, but perhaps unsure of how to make that happen for themselves. I enjoy helping people explore all parts of their life to help make sense of present situations and to make a plan for a healthier future. This can look like discussing nutrition, exercise, emotional intelligence, past relationships and family dynamics, as well as a myriad of other topics. I prioritize a holistic approach for not only my clients, but for my own life as well and have personally experienced healthy change from this perspective.

Life happens to the best of us, and it can be very overwhelming in general. With women juggling more roles, there has been an overwhelming increase in pressure to push through when you may feel like you are operating on fumes. Whether you are amid a positive, exciting life event or more stressful experience, life transitions are inevitable. This is for the woman who may be functioning well on the outside but falling apart inside. You came here because maybe you are feeling disconnected from yourself & others, feeling chronically exhausted and questioning this version of you.

I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches because therapy isn't one size fits all. This may involve changing your thoughts and behaviors (CBT), learning how to be more present (mindfulness), and/or establishing safety (trauma-informed).

“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” (John 1:5) You are created for a purpose and even though the darkness was hard at work, here you are, standing your ground. Well done! I want to come alongside and start this journey of true joy and freedom with you. If you are experiencing dissatisfaction and emptiness due to lack of life-giving fruit in your life, it is time to do things differently. What has worked in the past will no longer work because the Light has come.

As an executive therapist at Well(ness) Atlanta I provide accessible and effective mental health care to high achieving individuals. I have over five years of experience in the counseling field, and hold the National Certified Counselor credentials (NCC) and the Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) credential. My mission is to help clients live authentically and feel better using therapy as a powerful tool. My passion and expertise lie in working with women who are juggling multiple roles and responsibilities, such as work, relationships, parenting, and volunteer work.

You want to feel better. You’re ready to heal, and I want to help you on that journey. I see counseling as a collaborative partnership, and I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can be you without fear of rejection. Using an approach to counseling that blends cognitive behavior techniques with values work and self-compassion, I help clients cultivate self-love, incorporate new coping skills, and improve their relationships. I am also an IFS-informed clinician, meaning that I work with you to improve the relationships between various parts of yourself. I work best with people who are curious and ready to grow.

My work focuses on helping clients come to recognize patterns within themselves and then go about the very fulfilling work of changing them from the inside out. Each of us has taken in patterns of belief about the world and how it "works" by our parents, families and others. We accept those patterns as "who we are." Sometimes those beliefs and patterns cause pain to ourselves and others and we find ourselves looking outside ourselves for change in our lives. Inner work is challenging, but it can lead to a deep appreciation and recognition of who we are and our responsibility in our life.

My desire is to foster healing and growth within each individual and couple I work with. I believe that in order to make these changes, the client and I need to look at the complete picture of their life, taking a more holistic approach. I like to draw on their strengths in order to help implement change. I want to help my clients move beyond the troubles and stressors they have experienced in their lives and help them move towards a life worth living.

You may be at a point in your life where you feel that something needs to change. The way you have been handling the challenges of your life may not be working anymore. You don’t need to deal with it on your own. This is what psychotherapy and I are here for. I specialize in helping adults navigate life transitions, relationships, traumas, losses and issues linked to depression and anxiety. I support my clients as they move closer to the fulfilling life they desire.

Welcome! As a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW), I am committed to helping individuals navigate through difficult emotions, develop healthy coping mechanisms, improve self-esteem, foster self-awareness, and make meaningful changes in their lives. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families presenting with a range of concerns. My areas of special interest include mood and anxiety disorders, stress, life transitions, and interpersonal issues.

My name is Dr. Alexander Kohl and I have over ten years experience working with a wide variety of mental health concerns. I received my PhD in clinical psychology with a specialization in neuropsychology. I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment so my clients feel safe and heard while discussing difficult issues. I believe in treating the whole individual, not just their symptoms, and will work with you to determine realistic and achievable goals. One of the most important aspects about therapy is that you find a therapist that you feel comfortable with and can trust. I hope I can help you along this process!

I deeply believe that each individual has the strength and resilience to make the changes to live the life they desire. Stress and trauma can distance us from our core selves, resulting in depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. My hope is to create space for clients to slow down, reflect, and heal. I work with those who are interested in gaining personal insight, integrating learnings, and reconnecting with their confidence and goodness. I would love to connect with you, especially if you are dealing with grief (medical diagnosis, loss, unmet expectations), maternal mental health issues (fertility, relationship), or trauma.
