Therapists for college students near 30303

Hi, I’m Aaliya. I work with college students who are navigating the many transitions that come with this season of life, whether that means adjusting to campus life, figuring out who you are, managing academic pressure, or trying to balance relationships, family expectations, and your own needs. The students I connect with best are often those who are thoughtful, driven, and trying their best, but may feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or unsure of what comes next. You might be the person who looks like you have it together while quietly struggling behind the scenes. You may be learning how to set boundaries, build confidence, understand yourself better, or make sense of experiences that have shaped you. In therapy, we will create a space where you can show up as your full self without judgment. Together, we can explore what is weighing on you, identify what you need, and build tools to help you navigate college and life with more clarity, confidence, and self-trust. If you are looking for a therapist who will listen, collaborate with you, and support you through this chapter, I would love to connect.

I work with college students who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, overthinking, panic symptoms, or difficulty focusing, especially during high-pressure academic or life transitions. Many of my clients feel mentally exhausted, easily triggered by stress, or frustrated by not being able to function the way they know they can. My approach is intentional, structured, and results-focused. I take time to understand your symptoms in detail and create a clear plan that may include medication management, practical strategies, and support with sleep, focus, and emotional regulation. I prioritize both immediate symptom relief and long-term stability, so you can feel more calm, clear, and in control of your daily life. You can expect straightforward communication, thoughtful care, and a provider who takes your concerns seriously. This may be a good fit if you’re ready for real support and a plan that actually helps you move forward.

College is often one of the most exciting and overwhelming times of life Many of the students I work with are navigating major transitions while trying to keep up with classes, relationships, work, family expectations, and the pressure to have it all figured out. Sometimes the challenges are obvious: Academic stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, breakups, family conflict, grief, or adjusting to college life. Sometimes they're more personal: Questioning your identity, sexuality, faith, values, or future career path. Feeling disconnected from yourself or unsure of who you're becoming. Managing ADHD, autism, perfectionism, burnout, or people-pleasing. Trying to balance independence while still navigating family expectations. Feeling overwhelmed by the constant pressure to perform, achieve, and keep going. And sometimes it's simply realizing that the strategies that helped you get this far aren't working anymore. I believe you don't need fixing to deserve support. I think of myself as a life midwife: steady, grounded, and honest while something new is trying to emerge. My role isn't to tell you who to be or how to live your life. It's to help you make sense of where you are, reconnect with your strengths, and navigate the uncertainty that often comes with growth and change. If any of this resonates with you, you may be in a season of becoming. And you don't have to move through it alone.

Hi, I’m Hadiya. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a real conversation, one where you can show up as you are, without judgment or pressure to have everything figured out. I work with folx 18+ navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, identity exploration, and relationship challenges. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, and insight-driven, helping you understand patterns, build practical tools, and make changes that feel meaningful and sustainable. Whether you’re adjusting to college, managing stress, navigating relationships, or feeling stuck, therapy can be a space to feel heard, challenged, and supported. Sometimes, moving forward starts with having a place to be honest about where you are.

I’m Kara, and I am a therapist who is passionate about working with individuals who are struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, body image, people pleasing, and codependency. I also enjoy working with individuals who are questioning their relationship with alcohol and other mind-altering substances. Having invested in my own therapeutic process over the years, I know firsthand how tough it can be to reach out to a therapist. However, I also know how deeply rewarding and life-changing it is to engage with a supportive, effective, and compassionate therapist. I approach therapy with a foundation of gratitude and curiosity. For me, it is an honor to be entrusted with your story. In my practice, I provide a safe space where clients can gain clarity, connect with inner knowing, and begin living authentically from the inside out. I aim to empower clients to find what feels honest, true, and joyful for them. *A note on language: I use terms like people pleasing and codependency because they’re widely understood and searchable. However, I see these as patterns that have been adaptive, and often brilliant, survival skills, not character flaws.

Jennifer Lindsay is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with people carrying anxiety, depression, or the aftermath of trauma, including sexual trauma. A lot of what she sees comes down to adjustment, whether that is a move, a breakup, a new chapter, or a version of your life you did not plan for. Her approach is grounded in acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness, and trauma informed care. That combination means she is less interested in arguing you out of hard feelings and more interested in helping you carry them differently while you move toward what actually matters to you. Sessions are calm and paced to what you can handle that day. Jennifer sees clients through WellQor, which provides therapy online, so you can meet from a dorm, an apartment, a parked car, or anywhere that gives you a little privacy. To get started, fill out the Get Started form on the WellQor website. A patient liaison will text you with next steps and help you schedule your first session.

The therapeutic relationship is a foundational piece of the puzzle in effective therapy, and finding a therapist who is right for you can feel daunting. To share a bit about myself and help you make an informed decision, I have a background in social work and have worked alongside children, adolescents, adults, and families navigating trauma, difficult relationships, major life transitions, and complicated systems. I believe therapy is an opportunity to understand yourself more deeply, recognize patterns that may no longer be serving you, and build a life that feels more authentic, intentional, and connected to what matters to you. It is important to me that the techniques and approaches we use in therapy are grounded in research while also making space for curiosity and the individual needs of each person. I am also interested in how connection with the natural world, mindfulness, and meditation can support healing, grounding, and greater awareness. Wherever you are starting from, I look forward to meeting you there.

Meagan Logsdon is an Associate Professional Counselor (APC) in the state of Georgia and National Certified Counselor who works with individuals ranging from teens to older adults. Meagan received her BA in English from the University of Georgia in 2009 where she was also a member of the Redcoat Marching Band. After a decade working as a paralegal, she decided to shift career paths and, in 2026, received her MA in Christian Counseling from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Aside from the legal field, Meagan has also worked in supportive roles in various local school settings. She brings these experiences engaging with a variety of perspectives into the counseling room. Meagan approaches therapy as a place where the inner world can finally speak in its own dialect through story, symbol, metaphor, and play. Much of her work centers on ADHD and the perfectionism and feelings of inferiority that often accompany it. She helps clients understand the emotional architecture beneath their patterns—the pressure to perform, the fear of disappointing others, the exhaustion of masking, and the quiet belief that everyone else received a manual they somehow missed. She invites curiosity instead of criticism and helps clients build a more compassionate relationship with themselves and others. An avid arts enjoyer, Meagan sees creativity and play as a form of psychological movement, a way of loosening the roles people feel obligated to perform. Unstructured play often gets lost in adulthood, especially when life demands adults stay composed or hide the parts of themselves that feel too tender. Using psychodynamic, narrative, and IFS-informed approaches, Meagan sits with those navigating the aftershocks of religious or sexual trauma and those who feel caught between identities, between faith and doubt, or between who they were told to be and who they are becoming. She works collaboratively and with a commitment to honoring the mind’s complexity and the human longing for meaning. In her free time, Meagan enjoys reading, playing her flute, practicing yoga, video gaming, and running a Dungeons and Dragons campaign for her friends.

Hello! My name is April and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I enjoy working with individuals, ages 21+, who are motivated for therapy. I have extensive experience working with individuals coping with anxiety, depression, trauma recovery/PTSD, interpersonal conflicts, adjustment issues, and life transitions. I'm a EMDR Certified Therapist and also trained in FLASH Memory Reconsolidation. EMDR has been empirically proven to be particularly effective in the treatment of trauma, anxiety and other distressing life experiences. There are certain issues/presenting problems that I do NOT specialize in, they are: addiction; eating disorders; self harm; suicidal or homicidal ideation. These concerns require specialized treatment and attention, usually needing more intensive interventions and support. I have more than 20 years of counseling experience in a variety of settings including schools, outpatient mental health counseling clinics, and correctional facilities, working with adolescents and adults. I use a Person-Centered approach with clients and incorporate various treatment modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Flash Memory Reconsolidation technique, ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy), and art/creative expression techniques.

I work with a wide range of clients — from young adults navigating grief, depression, anxiety, LGBTQ+-related concerns, chronic illness, autoimmune conditions, and life transitions. Across my 10 years of experience, I've learned and implemented a wide variety of therapeutic techniques and strategies for a range of presenting concerns. I like to begin our first couple of sessions by getting a clear view of what brought you in, along with your broader beliefs and background, so I can tailor our work together. If you're looking for a therapist who is gentle, kind, and comforting in her approach, that's me. I do challenge negative thought patterns and miscommunication when it's helpful, though I also find that clients often benefit from arriving at those insights on their own.

Starting therapy can feel intimidating and vulnerable—it takes immense courage to seek support, especially from someone you don’t yet know. My goal is to demystify and destigmatize the therapy process so we can walk together toward healing, growth, and self-discovery. In our work, we’ll explore the challenges you’re facing and identify what might be keeping you stuck. You’ll be met with warmth, curiosity, and compassion as we co-create a space that honors your full, intersectional self and empowers you to live more authentically. ​ I work with individuals across the lifespan, and I especially enjoy supporting children, teens, and families. For young children, I use play therapy as a developmentally appropriate approach that allows them to express feelings, process difficult experiences, and build coping skills through play. With teens and families, I offer a space to navigate identity development, life transitions, and family dynamics with empathy and cultural responsiveness. I also collaborate with parents and caregivers to strengthen relationships and promote emotional connection. In addition to individual and family therapy, I work with couples navigating communication difficulties, disconnection, and relationship challenges. I provide a supportive and affirming environment for partners of all backgrounds and relationship configurations to explore their needs, repair trust, and strengthen their bond. My practice is rooted in a culturally responsive, anti-oppressive framework that affirms the lived experiences of BIPOC, Latinx, LGBTQ+ individuals, immigrants, and others with marginalized identities. I’m particularly passionate about supporting clients who are navigating intergenerational trauma, racial trauma, and systemic oppression. I also deeply value working with men and masculine-identified individuals, especially those who have internalized messages that discourage vulnerability and emotional expression. Creating space for these clients to heal and grow has been one of the most meaningful parts of my work. ​Together, we’ll create a space where your experiences are seen and your story is honored—where you feel empowered to grow into the fullest, most liberated version of yourself.

In my 20 plus years of experience, I have had the privilege of helping individuals and families in a variety of settings. I strive to provide a place of acceptance in which clients can explore the connections between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors with the goal of changing negative thought patterns to facilitate lasting change. My approach to therapy is to focus on the inherent strengths and worth of each individual while fostering a therapeutic relationship of respect and collaboration. Truthfully, I learn so much from my clients in this process. My personality and style are both positive and warm. My hope is that I convey to my clients the authentic joy that I find in my work.

The process of starting or reentering counseling can be overwhelming but a brave step towards improving your wellness. I honor that step by committing myself to meet you where you are, sit with you in whatever emotion arises, and offer you a safe and relaxed environment to discuss your concerns. As your therapist, I will work with you to collaboratively create a road map to greater health using our alliance and therapeutic tools along the way. We will work together to identify your goals, beliefs, and assets; process life stress; and empower your life for greater wellness, however you define this.

It is my greatest desire to use what I know to see you grow and live the life you want.
