Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Hiram, GA

I am a good listener and make my clients feel comfortable sharing anything with me. I am nonjudgmental and suggest the best treatment for them. I have over 12 years experience in counseling having worked in clinics and mental hospitals. Private practice is a good fit for me. I am active in swimming, biking, kayaking and music. I sing and write my own songs and perform occasionally.

My hope is to walk alongside you throughout this journey of progress and development to achieve your goals and aspirations. I believe in you and your journey to success; whether through mountains, valleys, or flats. I'm here to utilize my training, your motivation, and our collaboration to create the change you want to see within yourself and your life.

I enjoy working with teens, couples & families, especially in the BIPOC community. I use a variety of types of therapy including CBT, trauma informed CBT, DBT, and other evidence-based therapies.. I have experience in multiple disciplines of therapy including Substance Abuse, Inpatient Therapy, Community Therapy, Crisis Treatment, Talk therapy, Family counseling, Parenting Support, and more. I utilize a client centered approach to therapy, integrating clients needs and motivation with my therapeutic skills and expertise to achieve goals and create desired progress.

Thank you for taking a brave first step. I have 17+ years experience and enjoy helping people reach their counseling goals. You can expect to improve your life and important relationships through personalized counseling and support. I pride myself on being honest, compassionate, patient, (sometimes funny) and effective. I'm a combat veteran, which is important to some people.

My name is Austin Wood and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia. I specialize in the following areas of expertise including depression, anxiety, porn addiction, substance abuse, anger, and marital or couples counseling.

When I started working in psychiatry it became my passion. I work with individuals from the age of 6 to geriatrics. I have had the pleasure to work on several inpatient crisis stability units for adult age patients 18-55 years old as well as geriatric units for patients ages 55 years and older. I have also worked in a private practice setting for the past 4 years. I have come to realize when you love what you do it no longer truly is work.
