Great to meet you!

I am Savannah Gibson, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and first responders who are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the everyday stress that can make it difficult to feel like yourself. I take a collaborative, holistic approach to therapy, recognizing that every person's experiences, strengths, and goals are unique. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all approach, I work alongside my clients to build a treatment plan that fits their needs and empowers them to take an active role in their healing journey.

My professional background allows me to work comfortably with clients across a wide range of needs, including those who have experienced significant trauma or psychiatric hospitalization. Since becoming a practicing therapist in 2021, I have continued to focus my training and research on trauma, resilience, and evidence-based care.

My approach to therapy

For the past six years, I have worked alongside law enforcement and emergency responders as a police mental health clinician, providing crisis intervention, mental health support, and community resources. This experience has given me a deep understanding of the unique challenges first responders face, including cumulative trauma, high stress, burnout, and balancing the demands of the job with life at home. I have also provided training on trauma and resilience to first responders, presenting information in practical, relatable ways that resonate with the realities of their work.

I am also passionate about helping children and their families heal. I have experience working with children ages 3 to 18 who have experienced trauma, been victims of crime, or are struggling with problematic sexual behaviors. My work has included supporting children with PTSD, anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, and eating disorders. I believe that caring for a child means supporting the people around them, so I regularly collaborate with parents, caregivers, schools, and other professionals to provide well-rounded care that extends beyond the therapy room. In addition, I have conducted forensic interviews of children for the past five years, giving me specialized experience working with children during some of the most difficult moments in their lives.

Whether you're a first responder carrying the weight of experiences others may never see, a parent looking for support for your child, or someone simply trying to find balance again, my hope is to help you build resilience, reconnect with your strengths, and create lasting change. Therapy isn't about having all the answers—it's about having someone in your corner as you discover them. I look forward to helping you move toward the life you want to live.

What you can expect from me

During our first few sessions, you can expect curiosity, acceptance, and a judgment-free environment. I want to understand your story, your strengths, and what has brought you to therapy. Together, we'll identify your goals and create a plan that feels realistic, personalized, and meaningful.
