Therapists for college students near Atlanta, GA

Painful emotions like anxiety, depression, and shame can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, and hopeless. Therapy can help you work through this pain and guide you toward living your best life. My mission is to provide my clients a safe and empathetic space in which we can make progress toward implementing new skills and achieving lasting improvement. My clients describe me as warm, nonjudgmental, relatable, and unafraid to help them grapple with the most difficult of topics. I find these elements to be essential to building and nurturing strong and successful therapeutic relationships. My passion as a therapist is working with individuals to develop strategies and the skills to make sustainable progress toward living a full and rewarding life. I am intensively trained in DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy), and I specialize in working with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, and the effects of traumatic experiences. I am also particularly well-suited to work with clients who are transitioning back into their home and community following hospitalization and/or longer-term care for psychiatric stabilization. My clients describe me as warm, nonjudgmental, relatable, and unafraid to help them grapple with the most difficult of topics.

**Accepting clients who reside in Georgia or Texas.** Having worked on college campuses in admissions, academic advising, and career counseling, I love working with college-age students and the unique stressors that this season of life can bring upon them. When I meet with young adults, I often hear comments like, “I’m overwhelmed and stressed, and I just can’t get out of my own head” or “This situation or this challenging relationship is leaving me frustrated and stuck, and I don’t know what to do about it.” Navigating relationships with others can be challenging when we are confused about what we can control in the situation. I know because I, too, have struggled with how to handle difficult people and difficult relationships in my life. This means that you are not alone in the challenges that you may be facing right now. I'd love to work with you through this difficult season. I also provide Career Exploration Coaching for clients who are looking for extra support on decision-making for choices of major/minor or potential career paths that fit them best. I'd love to help you through this process.

Hello! My name is Alex. I am part of a private practice called Early Connections Child & Family Counseling. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and college students. While college can bring a lot of novelty and excitement, it can also bring difficulty and pain. You may meet hundreds of new people, but feel lonely and disconnected. Challenges at home or past trauma may make it tough for you to stay mentally and emotionally present on campus. You might feel anxious and overwhelmed as your classwork and other commitments pile up. These are just a few examples of stressors many college students face everyday. Regardless of where you are now, it takes a lot of courage to begin the process of counseling, and I would be honored to be a part of your journey. I work hard to create a safe, authentic, and engaging space where every student can freely express themselves. We will work together to identify areas in your life where I can be supportive, and create goals that will help you live your life well. Please contact me with any questions. I look forward to meeting you!
