Therapists for college students near 30303
To all the self-proclaimed perfectionists & people-pleasers out there: No, life does not have to be this hard. Let me paint you a picture: You are overwhelmed by stress and anxiety, but you do everything you can to appear perfectly fine in front of other people. You feel really alone, but you’re afraid to burden others with your pain. You feel like you’re constantly running on empty, but you don’t know how to get back to feeling like yourself again. To make matters worse, that voice in your head won’t shut up about how you can't trust yourself and there must be something wrong with you. Does this sound like you? Truth is, feeling this way sucks. You don’t have to keep living with all this pain. With the help of EMDR, we can reduce the overwhelm & emptiness you feel by actually letting your brain and body heal themselves. You can be free. You can feel calm & peaceful. You can be kind to yourself. You can actually get your needs met. All of this is possible for you! If you are finally ready to say goodbye to this inner pain and start creating the fulfilling & beautiful life you dream of, I can help you get there. Together we will come up with an individualized plan for you to heal in your own best way. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to talk more about what this could look like for you. Email me to schedule today!

Hello, I’m so glad you’re here! I'm passionate about guiding individuals on their journey towards healing and self-discovery. As an art therapist, I believe in the transformative power of creativity to help people of any age express themselves and navigate life's complexities. You don’t need to consider yourself to be an artist to find benefit in creative healing. I will work with you to introduce artmaking that meets your unique needs. Alongside art therapy, I also offer traditional talk therapy, providing a holistic approach to mental and emotional well-being that can be best catered to your specific therapeutic needs. In my practice, I prioritize a person-centered, existential, and strengths-based approach, recognizing that each person is the expert of their own experiences. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, understanding that therapy knows no age limit. I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental space where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts, feelings, and concerns at their own pace. As a LAPC and ATR-P I am currently under the supervision and direction of Nancy Morales, LPC, ATR-BC, CPCS and AICC Clinical Director, Christi Bartolomucci, PhD, LPC, CPCS. My areas of specialty include ADHD, ASD, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, chronic illness, grief, loss, behavioral issues, personal growth, relationships, social skills, life transitions and navigating life changes, such as impacts of divorce or career shifts. Additionally, I specialize in identity work, helping clients explore and embrace their authentic selves. As a queer-affirming therapist, I am committed to creating an inclusive environment where LGBTQIA+ individuals feel accepted and valued. I celebrate the diversity of human experience and aim to provide affirming care to all clients. Above all, my goal is to empower clients to lead fulfilling lives and embrace their true selves. With kindness, warmth, and genuine care, I am here to support you on your journey towards healing and growth.
I bring empathy, knowledge and life experience to helping individuals deepen understanding of themselves, face challenging life transitions and endeavors, and build meaningful and successful relationships. I strive to create a safe, affirming, collaborative and compassionate space seeking understanding, healing and growth. I provide counseling through the lens of Neurodiversity, Polyvagal Theory and Internal Family Systems. I have dedicated my career to building communities of diversity, empathy, creativity, and advocacy and especially enjoy working with young adults on the precipice of change. If you are interested in learning more about me and ways we can work together, please contact me for a free 15 minute phone conversation.

Many university students seek support when the usual ways of coping stop working. Even high-achieving, motivated students can find themselves struggling to focus, stay organized, manage emotions, or just feel like themselves. It’s not always obvious what’s going on at first—but there’s often more beneath the surface. I work with students dealing with: ADHD – trouble with focus, time management, procrastination, or follow-through Anxiety – persistent worry, racing thoughts, panic, or physical symptoms like tension or trouble sleeping Depression – low energy, lack of motivation, disconnection, or loss of interest in things that used to matter OCD – intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, mental loops that are hard to break Trauma – past experiences that affect how you respond to stress, relationships, or daily life Bipolar disorder – changes in mood, sleep, or energy that feel destabilizing or confusing Neurodivergence – navigating a world not built for your brain, and looking for care that meets you where you are Some students are already on medication and want to review or adjust their treatment. Others are starting from the beginning, looking to understand what’s going on and what options are available. Either way, the goal is the same: to feel more grounded, more capable, and more like yourself again. I offer convenient virtual appointments that can be requested online, as well as in-person visits at our Scottdale, GA location.
Do you feel like you need a space to sort though everything that has been happening in your life, without judgement? If you are feeling anxious, grieving a loss or simply looking to understand yourself better, my counseling room aims to provide a welcoming space. You will feel less overwhelmed and more prepared for everything in your week. Both virtual and in-office visits are available. Email or call today to get started!

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.
Dr. Shah is a Therapist In Atlanta, who works with adults facing ongoing challenges or momentary stressful situations, feeling stuck in their thoughts and emotions, or trying to reach an overall increased wellness. Therapy is tailored to your unique history, challenges, and goals as we collaborate to apply growth in the therapy room to real life. Therapy with Dr. Shah often involves stress management, dealing with depression or anxiety, and gaining resiliency. Dr. Shah has completed specialized training in Teletherapy and offers therapy through video conferencing and over the phone. This can be particularly convenient for individuals with busy schedules, who live in an area where therapy options are limited, or those with physical limitations or medical ailments who are unable to attend in person.

Hi there! I’m Margaret Landers and I’m excited to meet you! Getting connected with the right therapist can be a journey when you may already be dealing with a lot. I’m here to hold a healing space for you to process any thoughts, feelings, and sensations you are carrying. Maybe you’re completely overwhelmed, simply going through a change in living situation or are experiencing a recent loss. If it feels hard to carry on your own, I can help. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Agnes Scott College with a background in crisis intervention, and currently specialize in anxiety, depression, grief, death and dying. Many of my clients see me to process life transitions, LGBTQIA+ issues, and neurodiversity affirmation. I see both individuals and couples, ages 18+. My goal is helping you find confidence, worth and wellness. If you feel that we are a good fit, please contact me! I am happy to hold a consultation or intake session to ensure the connection feels right for you. Counseling is most effective if the client-therapist relationship feels open and comfortable, so I'm here to support you at your pace.

Are you feeling overwhelmed under the pressures of facing life transitions, hacking adulthood, success/failure, and your FUTURE, particularly in these stressful, uncertain times? Finding an older adult who really gets it, and opening up to a stranger can also be really stressful- I understand! I promise, I really get all that you may be struggling with and can help you learn to cope with it all better, feel less overwhelmed, and be more confident in your ability to not just be “okay,” but to thrive. I work with a lot of folks in their twenties, and always strive to have a relaxed, supportive, inclusive, affirming, and judgment-free safe space for all clients to help them to learn and determine more about Who they are and want to be, to like and value themselves, manage stress and life better, take on each day confidently, and just generally believe they really can figure it out and do it (whatever “it” is). Through a compassionate trauma-informed, strengths-based lens, I seek to help my clients become empowered to heal, grow, and thrive. I work with adults, including many zoomers and zillennials, from all various backgrounds, cultures, ethnicities, faiths, and world-views. While I see that most issues are grounded in some depth of trauma, my focused areas include: anxiety, loss/grief, PTSD and C-PTSD, stress, burnout, perfectionism, Self-Image & Identity, adjustment, attachment wounds / developmental trauma, interpersonal/relationship issues (including w/ family), narcissistic abuse survival, and recovery & relapse prevention. (I also offer a faith-based orientation by client request.) My collaborative approach to therapy does involve talking about life’s issues, but I don’t just repeat things back to you or tell you to change a thought or behavior. I tend to also promote thinking about things from new, alternative perspectives and of yourself in a sense of various parts, to provide comfortable structure and accountability, help you identify and then to understand the real reasons WHY patterns have developed & happen, and to learn how to feel safe, grounded, and regulated within yourself - no matter where you are. I’d say I take a Whole-istic mind-body stance, and often use neuro-somatic techniques, including Brainspotting (BSP) and Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) to help reduce reactive feelings, as well as the integration of therapeutic psychedelics for deeper healing. Call, text, or email me whenever you’re ready, and let’s discuss your therapy needs and goals for being the best version of your Self! Lara Eddleman, MS, LPC, CCTP
