Grief counselors and therapists in Carrollton, GA

I help people of all ages- children, teens, and adults - who are survivors of complex trauma and PTSD. I am passionate about empowering survivors to loosen the chains of trauma and move forward. I use EMDR, DBT, CPT and play therapy to help clients to overcome the inner pain of trauma and build a life that is safer and more grounded. I enjoy helping children through the use of Child Centered Play Therapy and Playful EMDR to support children through challenges like self-esteem, bullying and other school- related problems. With 25 years spent as an educator, I have stood in those hallways and know what kids face. Additionally, I enjoy working with parents to navigate the everyday challenges that arise in parenting in this digital age. I enjoy walking with adolescents and teens who struggle just to get up and go to school each day because I remember what that felt like when I was a teenager. I also enjoy walking with students who self -harm, struggle with suicide ideology, bullying, and navigating peer and parental relationships. I consider it an honor to walk along with Trauma Survivors as a certified Traumatologist. I have supported people in healing from sexual assault, traumatic accidents, profound grief, and many other life-altering events. I feel deeply honored to care for firefighters, police officers, and first responders impacted by they have seen on the job. I offer Animal Assisted Therapy with her French Bulldog, Zoey, who is especially comforting to all of the clients that I see.

I am passionate about being able to help clients learn to help themselves. Often times, we aren't equipped with the tools and knowledge to move through life's challenges. I specialize in helping my clients heal from underlying traumas that continue to cause distress, while also treating current symptoms of anxiety and depression. I hope that each of my clients feel validated, supported, and valued. I am inspired by seeing my clients begin making necessary changes in their own lives to improve their overall wellbeing.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology as well as a Master's Degree of Social Work. I began to work in this field as a foster care case manager. I have since gained 15 years of clinical experience among various outpatient and inpatient treatment settings. I specialize in treating PTSD, Anxiety, and Depressive Disorders.

Hi there! You’ve already taken one of the hardest steps toward a healthier life by being here. That takes courage, and I’m glad you’re here.

I believe every person has inherent dignity, worth, and the capacity for growth. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Therapy is a collaborative journey, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you as you pursue healing, hope, and meaningful change.

I earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the Regent University School of Psychology and Counseling. My graduate training included a concentration in spirituality and was grounded in the belief, “To God alone be the glory.” That perspective continues to shape my work today. I approach counseling with humility, recognizing that healing can occur in many ways, and I am honored to use my clinical training in service to others with compassion, respect, and evidence based care.

I welcome individuals from all faiths, spiritual traditions, cultural backgrounds, and those who do not identify with a religion. Whether faith is central to your life or not, therapy will be tailored to your values, beliefs, culture, and personal goals. If you would like to incorporate spirituality into your care, I am honored to support that part of your journey.

During my clinical training, I specialized in healthy relationships, including domestic violence, sexual abuse, and human trafficking. I also have extensive experience in suicide prevention, crisis intervention, behavioral health, anxiety, depression, trauma, moral injury, grief and loss, relationship concerns, neurodiversity, parenting skills, individuals with special needs and their family members, LGBTQ+ concerns, and major life transitions.

Many people come to therapy because they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in patterns they don't fully understand. My approach goes beyond addressing symptoms—I support clients understand the root beneath their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we'll explore the experiences, beliefs, relationships, and life events that have shaped the way you see yourself and the world.

Welcome! My goal is to partner with families to help clients live happy, healthy lives. Whether you've experienced side effects from medication or haven't seen the progress you hoped for, I'm here to work with you toward a solution.

Finding the right medication is only part of the picture — truly understanding what's happening in your life matters just as much. That's why I incorporate brief, solution-focused therapy into every visit and make a point of staying in close communication with your other providers.

As a child and adolescent psychiatrist, I have extensive training and experience treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, and a range of other behavioral health challenges. I also enjoy working with young adults in their twenties who are navigating the unique transitions and challenges that come with that stage of life.

I have a special interest in women's health — particularly during the perinatal period and menopause — as well as the unique needs of healthcare workers.

I believe everyone has a unique story and deserves an individualized approach to care. Once we decide to work together, we’ll act as partners in your therapeutic journey.

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.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that hope and healing are possible for everyone. My counseling approach is grounded in the belief that meaningful change can occur when individuals, couples, and families partner with a compassionate, skilled therapist who provides effective support and practical mental health resources. I am committed to creating a safe, supportive environment where clients can gain insight, build resilience, and work toward their goals. I look forward to the opportunity to meet and work with you.

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.
