Compassionate, experienced Atlanta therapists to help you end struggles with anxiety, depression, relationships or identity and achieve a better life. Our therapists are all queer-affirming and offer a safe space for clients.

I provide inclusive, affirming therapy for individuals navigating identity, trauma, relationships, and life transitions. My practice centers neurodivergent, grievers, LGBTQ+ folks, people of color, and anyone who’s ever felt like the “only” in the room. I believe therapy should be a space where you can show up fully as yourself - messy, brilliant, questioning, and human. Using a relational, trauma-informed approach, I work collaboratively to help you explore your experiences, reconnect with your values, and build a life that feels meaningful and grounded. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, burnout, or just trying to figure out who you are, you're not alone - and you don't have to do it alone.

Are you struggling with past traumas that impact your relationships or daily life? Feeling overwhelmed by the demands of work, family, and your own personal needs? Recovering from a breakup and finding it hard to move forward? At Push Thru Therapy, we understand that everyone’s journey is unique. Our dedicated group practice is committed to supporting individuals through various life challenges, no matter how big or small. We provide a safe and welcoming space where all clients, including women, mothers, and individuals from diverse backgrounds, can explore and address their concerns. We have a group of culturally competent therapists that have experience in working with trauma, anxiety, self-worth, identity, depression, stress management, life transitions, women issues, infertility, infant loss, and maternal mental health (postpartum depression & anxiety). Our clinicians are trained in perinatal mental health. At Push Thru Therapy, we are a supportive and inclusive group practice dedicated to helping individuals navigate the challenges life brings. We believe in the power of connection and healing, and we're here to walk alongside you on your journey, offering compassion, understanding, and guidance. We are committed to uplifting you and helping you find your way.

Are you afraid of making one mistake that ruins your whole life? Do you find yourself constantly tired and anxious? Unable to have fun no matter what you’re doing? Maybe you’re looking for a therapist who's a dungeon master and watches anime? Then I’m your person. I am passionate about providing affirming care to geeky queer, trans, and gender-expansive individuals (13 years and older), and I specialize in folks experiencing OCD/anxiety, identity exploration, and life transitions, although I love to work with clients on a large variety of concerns. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down and feel truly seen for every aspect of you. Together, we’ll build up your toolbox with skills so you can set boundaries with others and calm your compulsive thoughts. We’ll explore the habits you’ve been meaning to stop and create ways to manage your time better. One way I enjoy connecting with clients is through media, video games, and other current geeky events – also known as Geek Therapy, where we use fantasy and play to work through what brings you to counseling. Depending on your passions, this can look like utilizing games, creating Dungeons & Dragons character sheets, watching your favorite tv show together or even showing up to a session in cosplay! We can bring your interests into the room to make therapy less scary and more empowering. Counseling has been absolutely crucial to my own journey, while also opening my eyes to the lack of queer-affirming support that is out there. This inspired me to become a counselor who gives back to their own community, by creating brave and affirming spaces for LGBTQIA+ folx. I know how powerless and shameful it feels having to hide away parts of yourself to fit in with others and that is not necessary here. You can be yourself with me.

I provide individual therapy to young adults and adults experiencing a range of concerns including substance use, trauma, life transitions, and the unique stressors men face. I approach counseling from the perspective that you already have strengths and abilities that you can use to become your strongest self. Together, we find those strengths and put them to work towards your goals. As part of this I often use Cognitive Behavioral therapy, a technique that looks at the relationship between your thoughts, feelings and behaviors. It’s been shown to be incredibly effective at helping people make lasting changes in their lives. I am a Master Addiction Counselor and trained in E.M.D.R., a technique shown to be effective in treating trauma. It is also common that you may not have your finger on exactly what you hope to work on, yet you know you are seeking growth and change. If that’s the case, therapy can be a powerful tool to help you clarify what you want and how to best get it. If you are interested in learning more about how working together can help you reach your goals, contact me for a free consultation. Consultations are done by phone, take about 15 minutes and give us a chance to see if we would be a good fit to work together.

10+ years of experience helping clients with mental health and well-being issues, I specialize in managing anxiety and depression, enhancing physical well-being, and achieving self-discovery through growth. My approach includes CBT, REBT, DBT, horticultural therapy and virtual reality therapy, guiding you to overcome obstacles and foster lasting positive change.

I've worked in the mental health field for over 9 years in a variety of settings. I have provided CBT and other therapeutic approaches in private practice, residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient settings. I've worked with a lot of people with differing mental health issues and most importantly I've seen a lot succeed and thrive. I am passionate about helping individuals that struggle with mental illness. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health that’s built around a person and not a diagnosis. I believe the impact of living with a mental illness goes far beyond a set of clinical symptoms. I feel that every person is capable of growth and change when they put in the effort.

Acting as both a counseling/coaching office and our corporate office, Attento Marietta is located in a beautiful 2-story low-rise brick building campus setting with access to our office being a quick walk from the parking lot. Our second story office requires a short walk upstairs (sorry–our office is not supported by an elevator) to fully windowed offices overlooking a tree-filled outdoor setting where privacy abounds.

We help people who look happy on the outside actually feel that way on the inside. It's exhausting trying to keep it all together. Most of us expend a huge amount of effort to make it look like our life is perfect; especially on social media. Some of us even relate to the dreaded Imposter Syndrome. While our accomplishments may be lengthy, our relationships and fulfillment are lacking. We understand, and our approach reflects just that. Creating a connection is core to our approach to counseling. We work from a multitude of theoretical frameworks including person-centered, positive psychology, cognitive behavioral, family systems, and solution focused. Much of our experience has been helping people find balance in their lives and re-focus their energies on values important to them.

If you are feeling stuck, playing small, or wondering if this is it, I'd love to talk with you! You don't have to play by everyone else's rules. You can release that which no longer serves you and step into your most beautiful expression of you. (I know because I've done it!) If traditional therapy has left you wanting more, my style of coaching, energy healing, and therapy might be a good option to explore. I believe that when we start living our most authentic lives, the old conditioned self that used to be in charge takes a back seat and we all enjoy the journey a bit more. I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 19 yrs experience helping people overcome the challenges that keep them stuck. Certified Reiki Master and currently going through Yoga Teacher Training, I now get the honor of adding additional holistic methods to bring even more healing to our sessions.
