Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Decatur, GA

Hi, I'm Ruth. I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a background in nursing and behavioral health, and I am deeply committed to providing compassionate, personalized care. My experience includes inpatient behavioral health, psychiatric nursing, hospice care, and community-based settings, which has given me the opportunity to support people through many different stages of life and healing. I work with adolescents, adults, and older adults facing concerns such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, mood disorders, insomnia, stress, and other mental health challenges.

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.

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.

I have over 20 years of experience serving others in some capacity. I am caring, understanding, and dedicated to help you make positive progress in your personal and professional live. I believe who you are makes a difference and you matter.

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.

Are you struggling with feelings that you can't quite put into words? Have you attempted to mask this with unhealthy behaviors and coping that has led to guilt, shame or self-doubt? Maybe just being forced to "push through" because life has given you no other alternatives. Potentially these emotions have gotten in the way of your success and or every day life (job, school, relationships), and, you have turned to every avenue for help, but still not found yourself feeling any better? If this is you then your feelings are valid. I help individuals who are struggling to get unstuck in tackling the many challenges of life.

My approach is individualized and non-judgmental. It is important for me to take the time to help you feel safe and comfortable enough to be your true and authentic self. I see everyone's journey as unique within its own right. I believe that the experiences from our past help shape and define our present sometimes being embedded in our subconscious.

Whether you are new to therapy and anxious about taking that first step, or returning after a long haul, I am here to help you take the steps needed to move your life in the ways of your own choosing. My hope is help you bring clarity to your experiences while supporting you in your journey towards transcendence.
