Hello, Welcome! my name is Deborah Downey, and I am a licensed clinical social worker.
Hello, Welcome! my name is Deborah Downey, and I am a licensed clinical social worker.
My name is Lanota Fludd. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Certified Provider Credentialing Specialist (CPCS) with additional certifications in couples therapy.

I am Tanea McKee, Ed.D., LMFT a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I received my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Regis University with a concentration in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2008. I also received a Master of Arts in Education from the University of Phoenix with a concentration in Educational Counseling in 2004. I am currently licensed in the states of Delaware, Georgia, Nevada, and Wisconsin. I am passionate about increasing the accessibility of mental health services in marginalized communities and providing culturally intelligent mental health care. In my free time, I enjoy astrology, the Tarot, crystals, traveling, listening to old school Hip-Hop, and playing I believe the client is always in the driver's seat of their journey, with the therapist acting merely as a GPS system. I have experience in Solution Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Transgenerational Therapy, Systemic Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychoeducation, and Intersectionality.
My name is Emily, I'm a Licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience working with families and individuals. My educational background began in social work with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Georgia. With a foundation in social work, my training is focused on helping individuals reach their full potential as they define it. We are all unique and have our own unique paths to follow, I strive to meet people where they are and join them to provide support along the journey. I believe the source of healing comes from within the person. The therapist's role is to provide a safe space for the person to openly process their truth and give structure as needed. My approach is grounded in Person-Centered: empathic understanding, being our authentic selves, and nonjudgmental acceptance. As tools are needed to help us move forward I utilize a variety of modalities based on the best fit for the individual including, CBT, DBT, Strength Based, Positive Psychology, Family Systems, and Grief work. Working through the many life changes we face in our lifetime can be overwhelming triggering anxiety, depression, and feeling unable to cope with the stress. Leaving home for the first time, starting a new career, getting married, becoming a parent, facing divorce, losing a loved one, and becoming a caregiver for someone we love are just a few of the transitions we may face on our journey. Role changes are difficult and having support as we go through them can help us thrive and grow through each challenge we face. I believe the client is the expert on themselves and I learn the most from listening with a nonjudgmental ear and asking clarifying questions when needed. They should feel relaxed and comfortable with the therapist, talking as two close friends who feel accepted and respected. My original goal was social work so that I could serve others in a practical way. Through education and practical experience, I realized much of human suffering is based on the inner struggle they are battling. The purest way to support anyone is to join them in the search for their own inner strength. When a client is able to openly share their inner struggle and see themselves in a positive light. The client has the ability to face each day with the confidence they have the strength within themselves for what the day may bring. I review what to expect in therapy along with the limitation of confidentially. I encourage clients to share their stories and what brings them to therapy. History is gathered in a conversational style to help establish rapport.
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.

I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, marriage, and divorce. I have also helped many others dealing with issues such as physical trauma or emotional abuse. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe we all have the inner tool to heal ourselves.

My therapeutic room is one where clients feel respected, supported, and empowered to be their best. I have always had a passion to help people as well as a need to see them at their flourish. I began counseling individuals in my community before returning for my master's degree and working towards my clinical license. I look at goal setting as a roadmap to better health. I work collaboratively with clients to develop goals that are attainable. The first session is about getting to know each other and developing rapport. We begin by discussing the goals for the sessions. I also encourage people to ask questions regarding the sessions.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Certified Child and Adolescent Trauma Professional (CATP) who enjoys working with families of teenagers. I also work with individuals and greatly appreciate the opportunity to help others. Before becoming a therapist, I was an educator for 11 years and specialized in prenatal through age 5. My therapeutic style is a blend of Narrative and solution-focused approaches. I am a very open-minded individual who thrives when working with diverse groups. I typically work with teenagers and anxiety. I also provide group, couples, and family counseling. I am a Certified Child and Adolescent Trauma Professional and work with trauma compassionately. I am a very open communicator. I am easy to talk to and not easy to get a reaction out of. I tend to be very soft in my communication but will be more blunt if asked. I also like to use humor. I have wanted to be a therapist since I was 14 years old. What initially drew me at that age was not feeling like my parents understood me and wanting to help other teenagersparents understand and communicate with each other. I was a peer mediator at my school starting at age 8 all the way through graduation at 18. My career did not start in this field, as I was a teacheradministrator for 11 years. During my entire tenure in the education field, I always felt like I wanted to help the families more. This yearning renewed my passion for therapy. I am very attentive to my client's needs and pick up on their verbal, physical, and facial clues. I am a strong believer that clients should be in charge of their goal-setting. If needed, with this process, I am able to help guide them. During a first session, clients should expect me to review HIPAA, confidentiality, ethical codes, boundaries, goals, desire for therapy, and other logistics. Clients should also expect a "getting to know you" activity.
I have extensive experience in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), existential and psychodynamic modalities, and years of outpatient clinic work with clients with mood issues, trauma, anxiety conditions, and life transition problems. I offer client-focused therapy, psychoeducational, and coaching. I'm here to help you become the best version of yourself- to overcome problems and grow from them.

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.

My name is Lina Munoz and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Atlanta, Georgia, and working with clients statewide via telehealth. I provide trauma-informed therapy to youth, adults, and families from different cultural backgrounds. My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client and family I work with. I most frequently use a systemic and psychodynamic approach, as both modalities help me and the client build a shared understanding of the underlying issues and elements that are limiting their functioning, taking into consideration personal and environmental factors that influence behavior and performance. I allow special emphasis on the emotional experiences of my clients and how these emotional experiences inter-relate and impact their relationships.
