Hello! My name is Kali Lambert and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I am excited to support future clients in living their best lives and in stepping into the most authentic version of themselves.

Hi, I'm Jasmine McCully. I am currently a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan. Throughout my career, I have worked in various settings that include private practice, hospitals, non-profits, government, behavioral health outpatient clinics and treatment facilities, and inpatient psychiatric treatment facilities. Inviting someone into your most personal space can be intimidating, scary, and daunting. Getting to this point of reading my bio is a huge step. Just know that I am SUPER excited that you have taken that step! Some of the therapy approaches I utilize are cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance, and commitment therapy, solution-focused therapy, and client-centered therapy. I also integrate mindfulness, journaling, and meditation, just to name a few!

My goal and mission are to help people to improve their lives by working through their challenges and learning different techniques to build coping and resilience to improve their life experiences. My focus is on meeting people where they are and helping them to improve their quality of life. My background includes work in outpatient settings, inpatient hospitals, college counseling settings, and in my own private practice. I have studied at Syracuse University and have my degree in Psychology, and also studied at the top social work school in the country, the University of Michigan. I gather inspiration from a variety of backgrounds and techniques but have found that individuals have a great deal of success when we work on the relationship between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

I'm Ayana Lewis and I am a licensed clinical therapist in Georgia and Texas. I work well with those wanting to learn skills to better manage Anxiety andor Depression. I also help many navigate their relationships with others while working on their own self-concept (how they see themselves and the world around them). Oftentimes, we focus on past life experiences or are anxious about the future; therefore, I use a combination approach that includes mindfulness (being present) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (thoughts influence behaviors). These techniques help with grounding and appreciating the present moment while identifying belief patterns that are a hindrance. I believe in helping clients find feasible solutions to their perceived problems; therefore, I also utilize a solution-focused approach to therapy. I work well with clients that are experiencing low self-esteem and self-worth. I help clients recognize their value and how they are presenting to the world around them. Additionally, I assist those attempting to navigate life transitions including relationships, work, or family matters. I attempt to foster a relaxed environment and I want clients to feel as though we are having a normal conversation and not feel anxious about this therapeutic experience. I have always had the desire to help others; therefore, leading me down the path of becoming a Social Worker. I worked with and assisted many populations within my 17 years as a Social Worker and believe I have a good understanding of others. I became a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in 2014 and started offering a more therapeutic approach to clients within the healthcare system. I decided to work as a therapist because I wanted to gain a better understanding of people's thought processes and help them become a better version of themselves. At the end of our initial meeting, I work with clients to develop therapeutic treatment goals. I believe it is important to work together to establish these goals as I desire clients to feel as though they are getting the most out of this experience. Clients should expect an open and engaging counseling style. I am here for you to listen to your story and offer insight as needed or desired.

I am a Behavioral Analyst, Federal Consultation-Liaison, and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience. I utilize my skills both here in the U.S. and abroad for the Department of Defense, Veteran's Administration, and in private practice. I obtained my master’s from New York University and completed doctoral studies at Capella University. While I have trained in many behavioral health models, I specialize in Military related PTSD, mood disorders, Suicide and Homicide Treatment Prevention, Relational Conflict, Postpartum Depression, and SexualIntimate Partner Trauma for children and adults. Because of my level of training, I have been nationally recognized as an expert witness in the family and criminal court systems of New York, Virginia, and North Carolina. I can often participate in behavioral health symposiums throughout the country and advocate for supporting marriage, strengthening single-parent homes, and military and veteran families, educating young parents, and promoting collectivism for the community’s wellbeing. I am a solution-focused, affirming, and open-minded provider that will meet you where you are ready to start. I am known for saying “The village needs us. Let us come together and win." I believe in nurturing families until they are able to stand up for themselves. I will work with you to create realistically, person center goals that you feel are actually achievable. You are the subject matter expert on how you feel. We will work together to help you create the life changes that you want. Our first session will be spent identifying the experiences, symptoms, thoughts, and feelings you find most problematic in a safe and protective space.

I specialize in working with anyone affected by addiction, family members of addicts, and anyone looking to grow and expand self-awareness. I am a certified addiction counselor. I am a certified brainspotting practitioner, which branches off of a trauma modality known as EMDR. I am a certified experiential specialist. I am an anger resolution specialist. I am also listed on the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD) State of Georgia site as a clinical evaluator. Addiction is a disease that often pushes us to go against our morals; this causes uncomfortable emotional states that we tend to want to avoid discussing. To begin healing, we must feel these emotions, and to feel the emotions, we need someone to process them with. I have personally experienced the darkness of addiction in my own life and strive to help people see their light!

Hi! I am Dr. Malissa Collins, a licensed professional counselor(LPC) in Georgia specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. My approach is warm and compassionate. My focus is to meet clients where they are and teach them ways to successfully navigate through life to meet goals. I have experience working with individuals from various backgrounds, families, and couples. My Ph.D. is in Marriage and Family Therapy. My clients appreciate my warmth, nonjudgmental style. It helps to make them feel relaxed and confident. I knew in high school that I wanted a career in the psychology industry because my friends told me I had a natural “knack” for listening and helping. They would say, “You’re easy to talk to”…my drive comes from living my purpose. I find value in helping others reach happiness. Because I primarily use CBT strategies to help clients reach therapy goals, the focus begins with cognitive restructuring…awareness of potential faulty core beliefs about self and the world. My first sessions include getting to know you as a partner in this therapeutic relationship. This means I will ask questions to learn as much about you as possible. The goal is to build trust in each other.

I believe in the power of therapy to transform, heal and reprogram so that you can lead a full life. Are you noticing difficulty in your relationships? Are you overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts? Are you desperate for relief from past trauma? I am committed to providing a compassionate space for you to be heard in order to explore your pain, navigate present difficulties, and find relief from discontent and anxiety. I utilize evidence-based treatment modalities that access both conscious and subconscious issues. To heal from events or programming that have overwhelmed the body and mind, I aim for lasting change which requires neuro-biological shifts, achieved through processes such as hypnotherapy, attachment healing and experiential brain-based processes. I also employ Exposure and Response Prevention techniques for treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I provide a warm and relaxing environment where you can feel comfortable being you. I like to be real and talk to you like we are just two people navigating this crazy life. I'm excited to start our journey inward together and I believe there is hope. The best is yet to come. Whether you are new to therapy and have general questions or have traveled this path before, I am here for a free phone consultation when you're ready.

My name is Jivanda Martin MA, LPC, CPCS, CAMSII. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Georgia. I have over 24 years of experience in the mental health field. The therapeutic modality I use the most is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy because it historically gets positive results in a short period of time. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and solution-focused counseling in a safe, positive and optimistic atmosphere. I provide the support needed to share, become aware and address life challenges in a way that result in a treatment plan designed to meet your unique and specific needs. My experience with diverse participants has allowed me to acquire the therapeutic and coaching skills needed to work effectively with youth, adults and seniors from all walks of life to address a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, grief and loss, physical trauma or emotional abuse, as well as important life transitions. I have an assertive communication style that lends to empathy and the development of a positive therapeutic rapport. I provide an atmosphere in which you can be heard, validated and understood. In this environment, your true authentic self will be celebrated and improved through the development of awareness. I decided to be a therapist over 30 years ago while in college. I believe that the key to life is to find what you do well and to make a career doing it. I have always had an affinity for compassion, understanding, empathy and validation. The field of psychology allows me to exercise this affinity while helping others. Goal setting is approached through a series of open-ended questions to address the clients unique needs. The first session is information gathering and goal setting in an effort to create the foundation and direction of the therapeutic process.
