Therapists for college students near Georgia State University

Clients often come to me feeling overwhelmed by worry, having a hard time quieting their minds, struggling with focus or procrastination, or burning themselves out from feeling the need to be perfect. You may be doing well academically while inside you're feeling exhausted, stuck, or like you're working much harder than everyone else just to keep up. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, OCD, phobias, ADHD-related challenges, perfectionism, and difficulty managing the many demands in this stage of their lives. Some individuals come to therapy because they can't stop worrying or overthinking. Others find themselves avoiding situations because of intense fears, notice themselves getting stuck in repetitive thought loops, needing reassurance before they can move forward, or feeling unable to let go of the possibility that something might go wrong. You don't need to have a diagnosis or know exactly what's going on to reach out. My goal is to provide a space where you don't have to have everything figured out. Therapy is a place to better understand yourself, learn practical strategies, and develop more confidence in navigating academics, relationships, independence, and the transition into (later) adulthood. My approach is warm, collaborative, and evidence-based, helping you feel more capable and less controlled by anxiety, perfectionism, or self-expectations. I use CBT and integrate mindfulness and ERP for anxiety disorders and OCD.

At Ash Tree we have therapists that utilize a trauma informed and strengths based approach to meet the needs of our clients. We have therapists that specialize in working with complex trauma and PTSD, anxiety, ADHD, and other life transitions.

Who would you be if you believed you actually could? If you knew you already are? My approach to therapy centers on the belief that “healing is making whole.” Whether dealing with issues of addiction, depression and anxiety, self-knowledge and self-worth, sexual orientation and gender identity, trauma or relationship concerns, life transitions attention is, therefore, given to the whole of the individual – heart, mind, body and soul. So many of us feel stuck, repeating patterns of behavior we consciously experience a desire to let go of. What keeps us doing what we believe we don’t want to do is that we are disconnected from the places within us where our actions come from. In my work with clients I care most about helping others uncover their truth – without judgment. I see psychotherapy as an invitation and permission to reveal, explore and practice embodying the wholeness of who we are, in order to develop a greater sense of fullness, choice and empowerment in our lives. And I very much see psychotherapy as a partnership and a journey, one which I am repeatedly humbled and grateful to be allowed to accompany others on. In addition, as a certified yoga instructor, the teachings of classical yoga inform my psychotherapy work with both individuals and couples. Yoga ‘on the mat’ may be a possible element of our work for interested clients, but more often this takes the form of our exploring how to live and practice the principles of yoga ‘off the mat.’

Happiness is nice, but it isn't everything. I'm not here to help you be happy. I'm here to help you inhabit the raw fullness of your life amidst all of its twists, turns, challenges, and obstacles. Whether you're facing a point of challenge, a period of crisis, or a chronic issue, I welcome the opportunity to bring my experience and training alongside your experience, values, and goals. Together, we can make something rich of this strange, messy, and perhaps even beautiful world. I use an affirming approach to work with people navigating anxiety and overwhelm, compulsions and addictions, and finding My foundational approach is Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT). It emphasizes each person's ability to build a mindful, meaningful, resilient life that can withstand life's storms and revel in its beauties. As a social worker, I strive to embody anti-oppression, affirm all identities, and prioritize systemic analysis and sustainable, holistic change.

You feel the pressure to be in control all the time…with food, relationships, your job, your appearance.

You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to go clothes shopping without fear. You’re ready to start spending time with friends again. Most of all, you’re ready to feel fulfilled and have the life you want.
