Caitlin Shirley

Therapist

Virtual • Georgia


I’ve spent years sitting with people at their lowest—through addiction, crisis, and the kind of pain that can make life feel unmanageable. That work taught me something I bring into every session now: nobody is “too much,” and no story is too messy. These days, I’m more focused on slower, steadier work. Whether you’re worn down by depression, gripping through stress, or finally ready to be honest about drinking or using, I’ll meet you where you are with steadiness, honesty, and compassion. You don’t need the right words yet; we’ll figure it out together.

Tonia Spaulding

Tonia Spaulding

Therapist

Virtual • Warner Robins, GA


My name is Tonia Spaulding, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I believe that meaningful change is possible when clients feel heard, supported, and empowered. My approach to counseling is collaborative and compassionate—I work alongside you, not as an authority over you.

I specialize in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy. This means I help clients build practical skills to manage emotions, cope with stress, improve relationships, and move toward their goals while also focusing on strengths and solutions rather than problems alone. I value progress at your pace and tailor therapy to fit your unique needs and life experiences.

I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be open, honest, and yourself. Whether you are seeking support during a difficult season or looking to develop healthier coping strategies, my goal is to help you feel empowered, understood, and confident in your ability to create positive change.

Therapist

Virtual • Georgia


Hello my name is Tam and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and move toward healing, stability, and personal growth. I believe that everyone deserves to be heard, understood, and supported without judgment.

My clinical approach is client-centered, trauma-informed, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I work collaboratively with clients to identify their strengths, explore patterns that may be holding them back, and develop practical tools for coping and change. I strive to create a safe, respectful space where clients feel comfortable being open and authentic.

I have experience working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and complex social stressors. My background in social work allows me to view each person holistically, considering emotional, psychological, social, and environmental factors that impact well-being.

Above all, I believe in meeting clients where they are and walking alongside them at their own pace. My goal is to empower clients to build insight, resilience, and confidence as they work toward a healthier and more fulfilling life.

You're here! Right here, right now! You may not be where you want to be yet, but you have already taken a step towards facing challenges with a strength you never knew you had. Besides, it doesn't hurt to get a little assistance on the way. I'm here to help you. Let me tell you something. Nothing is as remarkable as seeing positive change in my client! Helping you make even the smallest steps towards your goal every day brings me joy and I make sure to let you know when I've noticed your progress. Even when they seem too small to notice, I'll notice! You’ll be surprised how much a little positivity can help.

I am a licensed professional counselor and a certified rehabilitation counselor with additional experience in helping individuals get back to work to attain the highest success possible after experiencing any life changing issues. I have helped people with almost everything you can think of. I have helped those with mild and severe mental health concerns.

When I counsel, my style is energetic, compassionate, and supportive. I praise your progressions, and I can show you how to be proud of your efforts and steps in the right direction. I am client-centered and I want to listen to you and be as helpful as is humanly possible. I love to empower my clients. I can't wait to meet you!
