I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and Human Services, I completed Certified Peer Specialist training during the semester break from my Master's program. I earned my Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Georgia. My practicum and career thus far has been in a residential program setting that means I've worked with severe and persistent mental illness (SPMI) ranging from mood disorders, personality disorders, trauma, OCD, and thought disorders.
I am deeply committed to providing compassionate, respectful, and individualized care. I value creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be yourself and feel truly heard.
My background and training have equipped me to use a variety of evidence-based approaches to support mental health and well-being. I believe in working together as a team, ensuring that your voice and preferences are always part of the decision-making process.
Above all, I am here to support you in a way that feels approachable, practical, and aligned with your personal goals.
I am Jesmond Fair, born and raised in rural Alabama and later became an alumnus of The University of Alabama. I completed all my graduate training at UGA and am calling Atlanta home. I am a gay Black Christian cis-gender male. For most moments of the day, I have a random song on repeat in my head. This can be attributed to my background in vocal and instrumental music. I believe in being real. So, clients can expect facial reactions, slang, occasional profanity, laughter, and even tears.
Welcome. I’m glad you’re here. Reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you or your child are carrying big emotions, past experiences, or relationship stress. Many of the clients I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. I strive to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and supported as you begin this process.
Therapy is a "later in life" career for me. I have worked in multiple fields and with people from many backgrounds. Through this I learned that the thread connecting all of us is our desire to be able to respond rather than just react and thrive rather than just survive. What prevents this are the beliefs, experiences, and traumas that often are held in our bodies. It is when we identify and resolve these, we will live and love fully.
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.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Kennesaw starts with getting clear on the type of care you need. Therapists, counselors, and psychiatrists each offer different kinds of support. Therapists and counselors (such as LPCs, LCSWs, and LMFTs) provide talk therapy for concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Psychiatrists are medical doctors who can diagnose conditions and prescribe medication. On Headway, you can browse both therapists and psychiatrists and read detailed bios to understand each provider's approach, specialties, and experience before you book.
With many providers practicing in and around Kennesaw — including nearby areas like Acworth, Marietta, Woodstock, and Powder Springs — narrowing your options can take time. Consider what matters most to you: a provider who specializes in a specific concern, someone who offers virtual appointments, or a therapist close to where you live or work. Free phone consultations are available with many providers on Headway, so you can see if a provider feels like the right match before committing to a session.
Therapy in the greater Atlanta area can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay out of pocket, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist in Kennesaw who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
