Whether you’re battling your inner critic, processing trauma, or just trying to survive in a neurotypical or cis-normative world, I’m here to support your growth, healing, and self-discovery. Therapy doesn’t have to be sterile or detached—we can bring your fandoms, creativity, and passions into the room as tools for healing.

Hello and welcome! My name is Becky Bolen. I'm a therapist who lives and works in Georgia. I believe that therapy works best when it feels real, human, and tailored to you. I show up as my authentic self in the therapy room, and I invite you to do the same. You don’t have to filter, mask, or shrink parts of who you are here. Your full self is welcome!

You've felt like you aren't as happy as you could be. It's hard to stop your mind from overthinking and worrying about everything, sometimes even getting to the point of feeling panicky. Or maybe you feel stuck and like you aren't satisfied with life even though you "should be." Maybe you've had a little bit of therapy before, but it feels like just talking about your problems isn't enough. You're looking for real-life skills you can use to help yourself think, feel and live better.

I want to help you optimize your life with a holistic and creative approach to therapy so that you can create a life you're excited about without being bored along the way. As a psychologist, yoga teacher, fellow human, and student of nutritional and integrative medicine for mental health, I bring an integrative wellness-based approach to your healing .

I believe we can work together to help you create a life that feels worth living. Previous clients have appreciated my ease, authenticity, humor, and creative, down-to-earth style. Call me to schedule an appointment to help you move away from stress, worry, and sadness and towards wellness, peace of mind, and contentment.

I want you to feel truly seen, heard, and understood. I will provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings so that you can move forward towards your life goals.

I received my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Western Carolina University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia, and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina.
