ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Athens, GA

Hi, I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping you feel balanced, heard, and supported. I have experience working with adults, children, and families across settings like inpatient, outpatient, and community care. My approach combines medication management with a compassionate, whole-person focus. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and life stressors, and I’m here to partner with you on your journey to better mental health

I have 16 years of counseling experience and work with teens, adults, and families navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, anger, trauma, stress, and major life transitions. I also support clients dealing with panic, OCD, sleep concerns, relationship issues, family conflict, and substance use.

My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. I take an open-minded, holistic, and solution-oriented approach, and I believe therapy should be tailored to your unique needs, strengths, and goals. I provide therapy in English and French.

Hello my name is Star're (star-rae). As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Holistic Therapist I am passionate about teaching holistic wellness in practical ways that make it easy to incorporate into your daily routine to support your healing journey and overall well-being (mind, body, and spirit). My work is rooted in empowering my clients with the tools and resources that promote their self-healing and growth as I guide and encourage them along the way.

Hi, I’m Jacklyn (they/she), a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia, practicing since 2019. I specialize in working with queer and trans adolescents and adults navigating identity, life transitions, and trauma. I also love supporting neurodivergent clients who want therapy that meets them where they are — with flexibility, creativity, and respect for their lived experience.

My approach is somatic, relational, and affirming. I believe healing happens when we slow down, listen to the body, and build a sense of safety and connection — both within yourself and in the therapeutic relationship. Our work together helps you deepen self-awareness, strengthen your ability to stay present, and reconnect with your innate capacity for resilience.

I am a New Jersey native and have over 20 years of professional experience working in various clinical and supportive facilities such as Partial Hospitalization (PHP), Outpatient Treatment, State Residential Treatment Centers, Community Mental Health Clinics, Employee Assistance Programs, and Assisted Living centers.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a therapeutic approach and consulting practice grounded in the belief that healing begins when we learn to see ourselves through a clearer, more empowered lens. As a Nigerian-American woman, my heritage deeply informs my understanding of identity, resilience, spirituality, and community. These values shape the way I hold space for clients and guide them toward alignment with their highest embodiment of self.

My professional background includes years of experience in community mental health, trauma-informed care, and culturally responsive practice. I have supported women, youth, and BIPOC communities through therapy, support groups, and mental health trainings. I am also influenced by Womanist Psychology, which honors the lived experiences, wisdom, and strength of Black women and communities.

My work integrates Western therapeutic approaches with cultural insight, African wisdom, and a holistic understanding of healing. I believe that our lenses or our “vue" are shaped by our stories, our lineage, and the environments that raised us. Through SelfVue, I help clients shift their perspective, reconnect with their inner strength, and cultivate a grounded sense of self-worth.

Whether through individual therapy, consultation, or organizational support, my goal is to create a warm, intuitive, and culturally attuned space where clients feel seen, affirmed, and supported in their journey toward self-actualization.

I am a fully licensed clinician fluent in English, Portuguese, and Spanish. I hold a Master’s in Social Work from KSU (2012) and a Master’s in Psychology from PUC-GO, Brazil.

My approach to therapy is shaped not only by my academic background in Psychology and Social Work, but also by my own personal journey. The challenges I’ve faced have taught me the importance of sitting with pain without judgment, listening deeply, and holding space with compassion and steadiness. I believe in the potential for healing and transformation that arises when individuals cultivate self-acceptance and integrate all aspects of their identity.

In my practice, I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where clients can reclaim their sense of safety, agency, and hope. It is a profound privilege to support people in their journey toward growth and self-discovery.

If you’re seeking a therapist who will honor your unique story and offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for healing, I would be honored to work with you.
