It's midnight and your up feeling anxious about that upcoming exam. You can't focus because you are trying to deal with that knot in your stomach called stress from a recent break up. You know you're capable of doing more, but right now your feeling unmotivated and are spending more time overthinking than living and enjoying your life. So I am here to tell you; Enough is Enough. It’s time to reclaim your life! I am a Licensed Clinician specializing in women’s mental health. I help young adults and college students with managing aspects of their, personal, professional, and family lives. I strive to help women who feel that they have to do everything and be everything for everyone; recognize that what they need and want matters too. My work also includes providing therapy to women who are having a difficult time adjusting after a breakup or divorce. I help empower women to regain self-esteem, set boundaries, and recognize their self-worth. I believe that my role as your therapist is to provide you with a safe, supportive and collaborative environment. Through therapy, I will support and empower you to make wanted changes in your life. My approach is integrative, collaborative, and tailored to meet your individual needs and goals. Whether you are dealing with a temporary problem or want to engage longer term to work on more challenging issues, I can help. I absolutely love what I do, and am truly passionate about women’s mental health. I believe every woman has the potential for satisfaction and fulfillment in life, and I would be honored to walk alongside you in this new journey.

My practice is designed for students who want a grounded, compassionate place to sort through the noise and reconnect with themselves. I understand how isolating it can feel to struggle silently while still trying to show up for school, deadlines, and the people who depend on you. Therapy with me is collaborative, warm, and practical. Together, we explore what’s weighing on you, build coping skills that actually fit your life, and create room for confidence, clarity, and emotional steadiness. Whether you’re adjusting to a new environment, managing academic stress, healing from past experiences, or simply trying to understand yourself better, you deserve support that honors your story and meets you where you are. My goal is to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move forward with resilience and self‑trust.

Hey, there! Are you happy? Do you have questions that you just can’t seem to answer? Is there a feeling of disconnection or distraction? Do you feel like a spectator in your own life? Are you living your best life? These questions and many more face us all. As a counselor, my passion is helping you and your family answer that ultimate question with a resounding YES! In life we all struggle with our emotional health from time to time and through solution focused and cognitive behavioral counseling I work with you, my client, to resolve these concerns and promote growth. I believe every person deserves to live a life they find meaningful. Through the use of CBT techniques, existential therapy and person-centered therapy approaches, I help my clients to gain self-awareness and insight into their thought processes, feelings, and behaviors. I have a relaxed, open and collaborative style of working and connecting. I focus on understanding what has affected your life and the resulting emotions. Our focus together is to clear negative thinking and beliefs to shift the way you experience life in a way that works for you.

College life can be exciting, overwhelming, and everything in between. I understand the unique stressors that come with being a college student—academic pressure, life transitions, relationships, identity exploration, and balancing it all. As a former college student myself, I bring both personal understanding and professional experience into the work we do together. I have experience working with young adults ages 18–25 and strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and understood. My approach is collaborative and compassionate, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, and person-centered modalities. I believe therapy should meet you where you are and honor your individual experiences and strengths. I would love to support you as you navigate life’s challenges, build resilience, and begin healing the parts of you that need care and attention. You don’t have to do this alone.

Mended Matters Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor
Lawrenceville, GA

Hello! I am Andre'a Younger, owner of Mended Matters Counseling. I've always been interested in understanding people and providing support has always been in my heart. However, I never thought that being a therapist would be the route I would take. Therapy found me while volunteering for an AmeriCorps program and simultaneously taking a developmental psychology course. Sometimes when we have our plans life has a way of laughing and revealing new ones. Since then, I have followed this journey of trying to understand why people think, feel, and do what they do. I have been fortunate enough to work with children, adults, families, Veterans, the homeless population, and those affected by HIV/AIDS. I truly enjoy creating a safe space that allows individuals to let go of the desire to have it all together and release their stress, anxiety, trauma, hurt, guilt, shame, and the expectations of others in order to shape and mold the you that you desire to be. Mended Matters was developed to be that safe space that encourages healing and restoration through exploring the things in life that have attempted to break us and that have been taking up space in our hearts and minds.

I have some specialty areas including trauma, adoption, foster care, LGBTQIA, anxiety, relationships, parenting, and divorce. I've been trained in Training for Adoption Competency with C.A.S.E., EMDR, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and other modalities.
