LGBT therapists in Jonesboro, GA

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.

I want my clients to know that I value creating a space that feels safe, genuine, and nonjudgmental. I understand that starting therapy can feel intimidating, especially for people who are used to carrying things on their own or putting others first. My goal is to help clients feel comfortable enough to show up honestly and be themselves without pressure or shame.

A large part of my experience involves working with trauma survivors and individuals navigating anxiety, relationship stress, emotional overwhelm, and major life transitions. I approach this work with compassion, patience, and understanding, and I believe healing happens through feeling supported, heard, and empowered.

Life can change in ways you never expected. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, grief, or the challenges that come with a major life transition, it's easy to feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or uncertain about what comes next. You don't have to figure it all out on your own, and meaningful healing is possible. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, grief and loss, LGBTQ+, and major life transitions so they can regain a sense of stability, reconnect with what matters most, and move forward with greater confidence. With more than 10 years of experience, I work with teenagers, adults, and seniors, creating a compassionate, supportive environment where you feel genuinely heard, respected, and empowered to create lasting change.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed by your ever-growing to-do list? Between work, dishes, laundry, cooking, and cleaning, you're feeling overwhelmed and shut down, and that's not including kids or school demands. Time management is a constant battle; you procrastinate, lose track of time, and miss important deadlines. It feels impossible to stay on top of everything. Your brain feels scattered and you feel like you’re underachieving, despite your potential and the effort you're putting in.

H! I'm Anna Mae. I value real conversations, not clinical or intimidating ones. I use warmth, humor, and genuine connection to help clients feel safe opening up. At the same time, I’m comfortable working with deeper emotional pain, trauma, and life transitions. Therapy with me is supportive, honest, and centered on what you truly need.

You have far greater potential than what you've realized. I guide people in moving beyond self-perceived limits brought on by mental illness and life circumstances. I provide treatment on a brief or long term basis using accurate assessments, evidenced based treatment, integrity, ethics, competence, and advocacy.

My areas of practice include depression, anxiety, suicidal impulses, stress, trauma, low self-esteem, and concerns related to sex. As well as delivering mental health services for people of color and the LGBT community. You deserve to be treated with sensitivity, respect and confidentiality.

My educational background is in both Clinical and Community Psychology. I conceptualize and intervene with clients with an understanding of individual and environmental contributing factors. Additionally, I have significant experiences working with people across the life span and in various settings. I bring this rich experience to my work with clients.
