Great to meet you!

Andriea received her Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Richmont ​Graduate University and a Bachelor of Science in Human Services from Kennesaw ​State University. Andriea has also completed additional coursework in trauma ​counseling, Psychological 1st aid for 1st responders, Assessment and Treatment for ​PTSD, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She is the founder of Epiphany Counseling ​of Atlanta, LLC.

"I utilize Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy, as well as ​Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I place utmost importance on ​getting to know my clients, thus developing therapeutic goals unique to that ​individual. It is truly a belief and not just a mantra , “people can thrive, not just ​survive after catastrophic injury, chronic illness and trauma”.

"I've been privileged and honored to co-create and operate The Resiliency ​Program (A Trauma-Informed Program for Dual-diagnosed, Forensically Involved ​Women). This program helped to successfully integrate these individuals back into ​the community, in order to be independent or semi-independent citizens in their ​own right. The success of this program is indeed a highlight in my career thus far. "

My approach to therapy

Life is full of challenges; it takes courage to face those ​challenges head on. If you will allow, I provide a safe ​comforting space to tackle whatever you are facing. I ​provide clarity, sometimes direction but always ​compassion. I'd be honored if you would allow me to ​accompany you on this journey called life. Take the first ​step...that's always the hardest.

I love working with those who struggle with depression, ​anxiety related to a variety of life's challenges: life-​changing diagnoses, gender issues, spiritual ​challenges. Yes, spiritual challenges! Being a ​'preacher's kid' (aka PK), I understand the inner-conflict, ​the war-within, that even seeking out professional help ​can create. But alas, you need not fear, nor do you have ​to suffer the pains of this war any longer. Let me help.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to be understood, validated, and supported. I am directive and while I support, I do challenge my clients to think differently (if appropriate).
