Therapists for college students near Atlanta, GA

I get it. You can’t eat. You can’t sleep. Your heart feels like it is beating out of your chest. You feel alone. You put everyone else first and wonder when it will be your turn. You don’t even like the person in the mirror, so how can you hope to find acceptance from anyone else? Is your main concern your body size or shape? Your sexual orientation? The role others expect of you? You are overwhelmed by feelings you don’t even understand. You wonder if you will be stuck like this forever. You want the thoughts on loop in your head to stop, so you can get some rest. You want to be your authentic self… once you figure out what that means. You crave connection and community – to find where you belong. You seek balance. I can help.

Hi, I’m Deidra Mays, a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 30 years of experience helping people work through challenges and find personal growth. I specialize in supporting students and young adults with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationships, and trauma, offering a compassionate and practical space to process, heal, and build confidence. What I love most about being a therapist is watching people discover their strengths and realize they’re capable of more than they thought. I especially enjoy working with students who feel weighed down by stress, anxiety, or depression, and helping them find tools to feel more balanced, hopeful, and empowered. One of the values I always share is “progress, not perfection.” College can feel like a constant pressure to perform, but growth isn’t about getting everything right. It’s about taking small, steady steps and giving yourself credit along the way. My role is to listen, encourage, and walk alongside you as you navigate both the challenges and opportunities that come with this stage of life.

I am a clinical social worker who provides individual therapy for adults. As a therapist my role is to provide a non-judgmental, safe environment for individuals to explore their life issues and support them in their personal growth. I find that a lot of us struggle with listening to our inner critic and often beat ourselves up for past regrets, as well as spending a lot of valuable time worrying about the past and the "what if's" in the future. I hope we can work together to quiet this critic and find a way to enjoy the present. My experience includes working with individuals in therapy addressing relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and assertiveness skills. I also work with individuals dealing with adjustments to major life changes, including adjusting to college. I also have experience working with individuals who identify as LGBTQ. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in practice, but may also utilize other treatment approaches as appropriate for each individual. I encourage self-care and self-nurturing activities to support therapy. Contact me today to get started on this journey together. I can also provide ESA letters if appropriate for housing needs.
