Therapists for college students near 30309

While active listening is an important skill for a therapist, listening can only go so far. Our practice belief is that we actually help you help yourself make the necessary changes in your life by giving you techniques, tools, skills, and guidance to achieve your goals. You'll almost always walk out of a session with a new technique or two that you can go home and start using immediately. Our practice has highly trained therapists, are personable, and we're ready to give you the skills and techniques you need to create change. While any given technique doesn't work for everyone and most people need a plethora of techniques, we'll be sure to give you the techniques and tools that we think are most appropriate for you every time you are here.

I spent 15 years supporting college students through every step of their journey. I worked with students struggling to adjust to being away from home, family, and friends; experiencing challenges with faculty or roommates; deciding on a major/career path; learning to be organized and follow a syllabus; developing better study and test taking strategies; or learning to manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenge.

Helping You Be True – Therapy for Trauma Survivors, Marginalized People, & Healthy Masculinity: Life can be too much for all of us at times – and what gets us through this overwhelm can sometimes limit us later on. Whether you are overwhelmed now or caught in patterns that limit you, I want to help free you to enjoy more meaningful experiences in life. As a Licensed Psychologist with over 15 years of clinical experience, I specialize in working with adults who are struggling with how they have been hurt and limited by others and have developed patterns that limit them and their relationships. I work especially well with adult survivors of childhood trauma, people with marginalized identities, and helping men develop healthy masculinity. Together, we can help you heal your wounds, grow beyond your present limits, and feel more free to be true to yourself. Skilled therapists are inherently understanding, accepting, and genuine. In addition to these, my clients experience me as particularly warm, calming, sensitive, and lighthearted. It is important to me that in every session, we make space to honor the depth of your struggles, you feel truly valued, and we help you make manageable progress toward your goals. This progress comes from integrating the best available research with my clinical expertise and your unique needs, values, and preferences. In therapy, I primarily use a contemporary psychoanalytic approach that explores how you respond to your emotions, how this influences your relationships, and how these patterns might be reenacted between us. By helping you heal and grow, we will work toward changing your patterns to be true to you. I am committed to therapy because I know firsthand the transformative power of how sharing my struggles with a skilled therapist who is willing to join me can make them easier to bear and overcome. I have developed my specialties with trauma survivors, marginalized people, and healthy masculinity to contribute to a more socially just world in which everyone can heal, social systems improve, and cultures become more compassionate. Beyond my above specialties, I provide therapy for the wide range of concerns listed below. I meet with clients in-person at my calm, comfortable, and private office in a professional business park in East Cobb, Georgia. Due to my office being up one flight of stairs, please inform me if you have any physical accessibility needs.

Hi, I am Ebony Booker, a Social Work graduate from Fordham University and Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia. More specifically I am someone who helps to restore balance when life’s most important priorities can get you off track. Being able to put the pieces together when things fall apart has been my niche in working with others over the past two decades. I understand what it is like to have the daily demands of work, family, relationships, school, extracurricular activities all vying for the same amount of attention in one day. It can seem like they are stacking up like a Jenga puzzle. During this time, when demands are high and your energy is low it may feel like things are off balance. From my many years in the field working with individuals I know that you can get back to a sense of oneness and focus. If you are ready to do the work, you will be surprised and encouraged at how much you are capable of. By implementing the necessary tools to manage day to day stressors. The growth you see will be something you did not know existed. I know that each one of us can make the change in our lives. If you are ready to understand what is holding you back and to carve a path out to begin your journey, then give me a call at 404-707-5743 or drop me an email at essentialwellnessandconsulting@gmail.com.

Hi, I'm Marilyn. Reaching out for help is often intimidating, especially if you're unsure where to begin. Everyone’s process in therapy will look different, and I’m eager to work with you to discover what that will be. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is most important in this process, and I understand the need to find a good fit. Whether it’s depression, anxiety, stress related to classes, significant life transitions, relationship issues, etc., I will walk with you along your path to healing. Therapy can be a tool to increase self-compassion, understand our emotions, improve relationships, and offer healing. I work with individuals and couples. We all have narratives that guide our lives. Sometimes we get stuck in a narrative that is no longer effective, or we have a difficult time making sense of our experiences. Talking with someone from an objective point of view can help you make sense of your experiences and find meaning in them. I am also a trauma-informed clinician and trained in EMDR.

College can look like you have everything figured out while quietly feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or unsure of who you actually are. Maybe you were used to being the “smart one” or the one who had it together, and now you’re realizing you feel… average. You’re studying harder but barely getting B’s or C’s or even failing, thinking about dropping a class, or questioning whether you’re even on the right path. You might be considering changing your major (again), taking a leave for your mental health, or feeling pressure to graduate on time so you don’t fall behind your friends. You might also be trying to figure out what you actually want to do with your life, feeling overwhelmed by career decisions, grad school applications, or exams like the MCAT or LSAT. Or you’re navigating friendships, your identity, dating, and independence for the first time and realizing it’s not as easy as it was told to you. I work best with college students and young adults who are thoughtful, self-aware, and tired of being stuck in their own head. You might look like you’re doing fine on the outside, but internally feel anxious, disconnected, or unsure of your direction. Therapy with me is collaborative and real. We don’t just talk about what’s going on. We slow things down, understand the patterns underneath it, and figure out how to actually move forward in a way that fits your life. I’m not a one-size-fits-all or “just use these coping skills” therapist. Some sessions we process, some we build tools, and some we focus on getting you unstuck and taking action. The goal is not just awareness, but change that feels realistic and sustainable. If you’re tired of overthinking everything, second-guessing yourself, or feeling like you’re falling behind while everyone else seems fine, therapy can be a space to figure things out without having to pretend you have it all together. Many college students I work with are trying therapy for the first time. You don’t need to have everything figured out or know exactly what your goals are yet, but it does help to have some sense that you want things to feel different and are open to looking at yourself more honestly. This work goes beyond venting or quick fixes. It’s about understanding patterns, building insight, and applying that in real life, even when that process feels uncomfortable at times.
