Self Esteem Therapists in 30655

I enjoy working with people who believe they are at their breaking point and don't know what else to do. Whether it be "mid-life crisis", going off to college, school and work demands, relationship issues, struggles with parenting, stress, depression, anxiety or ADD. Do you look in the mirror and not recognize yourself? Does your teen appear to be struggling? Do you often wonder if there is something more? Have your friends or family told you that counseling might help you? If you are wondering if you would benefit from counseling then you would benefit from counseling. Life doesn't have to be this hard for you or someone you love.

Deciding to begin therapy is a very personal decision, and it is typically not an easy one. It is my prayer that I or one of our additional clinicians can be of service to you with navigating any current circumstances, or dealing with the past, while developing a model of personal growth, working collaboratively with you.

I provide individual therapy to adults (ages 20+) and specialize in helping clients heal from the impact of trauma and chronic stress. Taking the step to begin therapy can create mixed feelings for some. I will meet you where you are, realizing that you have a unique story, which you’re free to share at your own pace. Just a brief history about me: my experience in psychotherapy/counseling began over 20 years ago and has included various populations who have shared stories of rejection, abandonment, and spiritual and emotional brokenness.

Human beings can change. Through the years I have worked with people of all ages who have managed to change every thing from immediate circumstances to life long, self-defeating patterns. My experience is that when you can find a therapist with expertise in the area of your difficulties, and when there is also a good personal match between you and the therapist, there are few limits on what you can accomplish.

Do you have a high-pressure job? Able to prioritize quickly, work well under pressure, juggle many things at once? This includes mothers, military, first responder, medical personnel, executive, or mental health professionals. High pressure jobs can often lead to the need for perfectionism, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, trauma, or addiction. If this sounds familiar you may need help. These kinds of work environments create unique stressors. Do you find yourself struggling with the weight of your profession while having a drive to push through? Your symptoms are spilling over into your personal life and you need a change.

As an experienced, licensed counselor, I understand what steps are needed to make real healing possible. Just like the physical body, healing for the mind and spirit requires time and it is important to know at the onset that the counseling process will be a journey, rather than a sprint. I provide my clients with a safe, non-judgmental space in which to share their story, helping them take their first steps on the path to lasting health. As a trauma-informed, source-focused counselor, I prioritize addressing the root source of a problem rather than its symptoms.

I understand that anxiety, ADHD, depression, trauma, parenting, family issues, stress, or co-dependent relationships, can be a struggle. I know that you are motivated to make positive changes in your life. Through self-reflection and self-discovery, I can guide you towards healing using creative approaches. Therapy can be hard, and I appreciate that you are willing to explore your experiences to find the underlying issues causing your struggle.

I work with women and adolescents who are ready to embark on a journey of self-exploration. Perhaps you are seeking counseling because life isn't working as well as it could. Maybe you are burdened by the past or by feelings of shame and guilt, lack of inspiration or motivation, feeling angry or hopeless after experiencing trauma or loss, struggling with relationships or family life, or simply just wanting to know more about who you are and why you continue to be stuck in the same patterns.

I see clients who seek counseling for a broad range of reasons, including: *Relationship and family issues, pre-marital counseling, marital conflicts, intimacy and attachment issues, sexual issues, addiction and codependency concerns, infidelity, divorce recovery, blended families, communication skills, adolescent development, academic problems, family relationships, parenting skills and training. *Growth Counseling: grief and loss, career transitions, interviewing skills, employment issues, professional development, life transitions *Health and Wellness: anxiety, depression, mood disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, stress issues, weight issues, eating disorders, trauma and abuse recovery, alcohol and substance abuse recovery, adult children of alcoholic (ACoA) issues

Anxiety and depression rob us of moments in life, stress our relationships, and hold us hostage in time. Haunting memories from the past stir us to run, fight, or shut down whenever we are reminded. The demands of life barrel on as we struggle to find a window to rest and to heal. The great news is, there is hope. Hope to better understand the parts of us that are healthy and those parts that are hurting. And hope that by working together we can strengthen your relationship with yourself and lighten your load. Let’s unburden, learn to cut anxiety off before it builds or shut it down when it does, lift the fog of depression,

Welcome to the first and most courageous step of therapy - looking for help and support. People are already amazing but sometimes life experiences, circumstances, illness and relationships can impose clouded judgment, maladaptive behavior, poor self esteem and obstacles from achieving what we truly desire and deserve. I am the type of therapist that is willing to be both vulnerable and open, speaking directly and honestly. My extensive work with adolescents and adults has taught me the importance of being genuine and down-to-earth, and thus, I work best with individuals who prefer a straightforward approach.

Are you experiencing a difficult season in your personal life? My name is Sam and I'm a native of North Georgia and a graduate of The University of Georgia. Ignoring suffering doesn’t lead to better feelings, only less feelings. Simply pulling the weeds just leaves you with an empty garden. When we choose to water half truths and negative experiences we can cultivate feelings of sadness, anger, fear, hopelessness, shame, or unworthiness. These feelings often lead to isolation, unhealthy choices, and unhealthy relationships.

Sometimes life is just hard, you are going along, and everything is fine, when, suddenly, wham!...everything changes, and leaves you asking, "now what?" You were taught how to do Algebra, but not how to deal with the situation you find yourself in. For me, therapy is about finding the right tools for you so that you can, in the healthiest way possible, thrive in the hardest times. I want you to know that you are amazing, and infinitely capable, and that sometimes you just need a little bit of help learning how to deal with life's curve balls.

Ever feel like you are responsible for your kids and your parents? Responsibilities from both ends. Maybe you are stressed out over work, family, finances, or planning for the future. Are you worried about the future, maybe even the present? Never have a minute to relax. I’ve been there and I know just how you feel. Will it ever end? Is there any hope? Yes, there is. I have counseled many individuals over the years who were in your shoes. I walked with them through the valley. There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

"The hardest battle to be fought happens within you. No one sees, applauds or censures it. It's yours. Victory or defeat, it will silently belong to you." (Joanna de Angelis) -- In my practice I welcome everyone who wishes to be heard and understood. Together we'll work towards a deeper understanding of your issues, and will be developing coping skills to help you improve your well-being. My goal is to provide a safe environment allowing for self-discovery, healing and growth.

Most individuals struggle with these issues in silence, but you don’t have to handle it by yourself. I have been counseling with individuals just like you for over 10 years in the clinical counseling setting.
