Great to meet you!

Hi! My name is Daria Barksdale and I am a licensed clinical mental health counselor and a yoga instructor. I received my MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Georgia State University. I've been counseling for 6 years now. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress management for children, teens, and adults. I've worked in a crisis center, in the school system, with the Department of Social Services, as well as with private practices.

My approach to therapy

I have always had a passion for guiding others, and helping to uncover the answers that are already within. I believe in a creative, nonjudgmental, and holistic approach to help tailor to your needs. I primarily utilize cognitive behavior therapy, mindfulness, positive psychology, EMDR, and solution-focused therapy.

What you can expect from me

You will gain more insight about yourself and your barriers to help increase awareness. We will explore who you are from a holistic perspective to aid in your own healing journey. You will also learn about different coping strategies and techniques, such as mindfulness, meditation, and yoga poses to improve your lifestyle.
