Hi, I'm Manas, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 7 years experience working with clients from all walks of life. I've focused on helping individuals through anxiety, low self-esteem, major life changes, issues in relationships, low confidence, anger problems, stress related to education, issues at work, and addiction. I received my Master's in Social Work from the University of Georgia. In my free time I enjoy music, movies, art, poetry, family, and friends. Out of pocket charge is negotiable depending on your financial situation.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor, I believe that a warm, non-judgmental connection is the foundation of meaningful healing. Reaching out for support takes courage, and my goal is to walk alongside you in a collaborative, person-centered space. While I bring extensive clinical experience to my practice and am currently completing my PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy, my approach is always human-first and tailored to your unique needs. I also specialize in play therapy, offering creative and developmentally appropriate tools for younger clients to safely process their emotions. Whatever your goals may be, I am here to support and empower you every step of the way.
I know reaching that first client is a big deal, so here’s a tightened, more conversational version that keeps the same order and three-paragraph structure:
I’m a licensed social worker, and I believe therapy should feel compassionate, affirming, and truly connecting. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, stress, substance use, identity concerns, chronic illness, job loss, and life transitions. I especially enjoy supporting women and also welcome clients of all genders. My goal is for you to feel seen, heard, and supported as we work toward healing, clarity, and lasting change, with space for Christian faith if that’s important to you.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in honoring the whole person. I strive to create a calm, supportive environment where clients feel seen, heard, and understood. Together, we will build on your strengths, address challenges with compassion, and move toward meaningful growth and emotional well-being.
Welcome! I have been in private practice for 4 years, following clinical experience in both in-patient and outpatient substance abuse and dual-diagnosis treatment. I work with individuals and couples, and a significant focus of my practice is work with teens and young adults. I so look forward to meeting you!
I’m Brandee, PMHNP-BC and founder of Kaleidoscope ClearPath Wellness. I believe mental health care should feel supportive, personal, and easy to understand. Healing happens when we slow down, listen to ourselves, and take small, caring steps forward. My approach blends mental health care with mindfulness, balance, and everyday habits that support your whole life. Here you'll find a gentle, judgment-free space for growth and clarity. My goal is simple; help you feel better and move forward with confidence.
Greeting!
I am a seasoned professional continuing to study and learn the most impactful ways to lessen human suffering and promote self love in all. Beginning my practice decades ago as a combat trauma therapist, I have found myself dealing with the traumas of early life and relationships with most my adolescent and adult clients. I believe counseling can offer many “tools”, to cope, however, I prefer to help people heal so that coping becomes an infrequent need.
Life can feel overwhelming when stress, anger, addiction, anxiety, or family conflict start pulling you away from who you want to be. I work with adolescent boys, teens, and adults who feel stuck, disconnected, or weighed down by emotional struggles and unhealthy patterns. Together, we focus on building confidence, emotional balance, healthy coping skills, and a stronger sense of purpose so you can feel more grounded, peaceful, and in control of your life and relationships.


Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding addiction therapists in Atlanta starts with matching the care to the concern you want support with. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, behavioral addictions, relapse prevention, recovery maintenance, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety or depression. Look for a therapist whose profile lists experience with addiction, substance use, or alcohol-related concerns, along with approaches such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or medication-assisted treatment coordination. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.
Atlanta has many therapists across neighborhoods like Midtown, Buckhead, Decatur, and the Old Fourth Ward, so the number of options can make it harder to narrow your search. Consider whether an in-person office fits your commute, parking needs, or MARTA access, or whether virtual appointments give you more scheduling flexibility. It can also help to look for therapists who are accepting new clients, offer appointment times that fit your calendar, and describe a non-judgmental approach to recovery. Reading bios before booking can show how a therapist talks about addiction care, whether they mention harm reduction, and what you can expect from sessions.
Therapy in Atlanta can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists offering in-person or virtual appointments. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:
