It's your life, your journey. You deserve to experience your life in the most authentic way possible, on your terms. In difficult times, life becomes overwhelming, and we may need help finding the way through. To assist clients in achieving mental health goals, Billy Cottrell-Jackson, LPC, NCC, CCTP utilizes a variety of evidence-based therapeutic practices to help improve client mental health, wellness, and overall quality of life.

College can look fine on paper and feel like a full-body group project with no instructions. At Empower Counseling, we help college students and young adults who are anxious, burned out, overwhelmed, questioning everything, masking hard, people-pleasing, overthinking, or quietly wondering why life feels so much harder than it “should.” We offer trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, neurodivergent-affirming therapy, including EMDR therapy, in person in Suwanee, GA and online in Georgia, Florida, and Virginia. You don’t have to hit rock bottom to get support. Not sure where to start? Text us at (877) 693-8386 (or old school email is fine, too). We’ll help you figure out the next step.

Great to meet you! Hi, I’m Angela. I’ve been supporting people through life’s ups and downs for many years, and I believe that we all deserve understanding, kindness, and a space where we can explore what’s really going on for us. I work with individuals, couples, and families — including kids, teens, adults, and seniors — who are facing things like anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD challenges, stress in relationships, or family issues. No matter where you are in your journey, I’m here to help you feel heard and supported as you make healthier choices and create the life you want. A bit about my approach to therapy I bring warmth, openness, and a “we’re in this together” attitude to our work. Clients describe me as understanding, genuine, and easy to talk to — someone who laughs with you, sits with the hard moments, and doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff. We’ll talk it out, make space for the stories you bring, and work through challenges at a pace that feels right for you. My style is solution-oriented and open-minded, and you’ll always be met with respect and curiosity. What you can expect from our first session In our first session, you can expect to feel welcomed and genuinely listened to. We’ll focus on understanding what’s been pulling at you and what you hope to change. You’ll leave with a sense of clarity, some early ideas for what we might explore together, and a feeling that this is a safe space where you can show up as you are. Over time, many people find they feel more confident handling life’s stresses, stronger in their relationships, and better equipped with tools to move forward with purpose and resilience.

If you find yourself feeling frantic, lonely, overwhelmed, and in despair, we are a practice of 5 skilled and compassionate women therapists who can fully relate. If you have found yourself in a room full of people and never felt lonelier in your life, we get it and have been there too. If you are going through a break up or are in a relationship that creates more self-doubt and self-loathing, we can help you heal and learn to love and accept yourself. If you are dependent on substances like alcohol or drugs and want to re-engage with your life and break the unhealthy patterns -- we are here!

If you are interested in joining my waiting list, please email me instead of calling! Do you become stressed easily? Do you worry all the time? Do you feel less motivated to do daily tasks? Do you face challenges in your life that seem too big to face? I provide a safe and comfortable environment to explore your thoughts. I will give a different perspective to the challenges you face. I have been working with clients and their families for more than 9 years. My theoretical models are strengths-based and systems. I'm a licensed clinical social worker. I can't wait to meet you and help assist you with your goals. Also, my office is on the second level of the building and there's no elevator available, so please let me know to make adjustments if needed.

Hardworking, ambitious, fucking exhausted. I work with women (18–30) who look like they have it together but are absolutely depleting themselves to stay that way. They’re responsible, creative, used to handling a lot…but they’re tired of overthinking, second-guessing, or feeling like no matter how hard they work, it’s never enough. Some have anxiety, depression, ADHD, or trauma histories. Others just know something feels off, that life feels heavier than it should. Often, they’re great at coping on the outside, which can make it hard to admit they’re struggling at all. But let’s be honest: Appearing “fine” is a full-time job. In therapy, we slow things down on purpose. We look at the patterns you’ve been stuck in — people-pleasing, avoidance, self-criticism — and figure out what’s actually driving them. We work with your nervous system instead of fighting against it. We build practical tools that help you move forward in your life. My style is warm, direct, & honest. I care deeply about my clients and will absolutely challenge you when it matters. I use EMDR, ACT, & DBT skills in ways that are personal and actually useful.

Welcome to A Step Toward Change Psychotherapy! Camie Vincent, L.P.C., L.M.H.C. is the primary therapist at the practice. She is a licensed psychotherapist who provides therapy to individuals, couples, children, and families who need support while dealing with life's obstacles. She assists them in increasing their level of happiness and overall life satisfaction while focusing on building better relationships and stronger families. With an eclectic approach, Ms. Vincent tailors her therapy interventions to meet the needs of her clients. She practices Cognitive Behavioral, Psychodynamic, Play, Solution-Focused, and Emotionally Focused Couple, Therapies. She puts a lot of emphasis on mindfulness-based interventions that focus on stress reduction and treatments that are more holistic in nature. Her specialties include Trauma/PTSD, Relationship Issues, Adoption, Anger, Men’s Issues, Behavioral Issues (sees children from 2-17 years of age), Women’s Issues, and Life Coaching. Ms. Vincent has extensive training/experience with trauma and adoption. She is trained as a Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and is a Certified Adoption Therapist. She is listed under the National Crime Victims Research and Treatment Center at the Medical University in South Carolina. Ms. Vincent is a graduate of Florida Atlantic University and Nova Southeastern University. She is a member of Psi Chi (International Honor Society in Psychology) and The Academy for Behavioral Profiling. She believes, “The goal is always the same- to enable clients to become the best version of themselves. At times we need direction, to lead us down the path which is right for us.” “Working together, clients will unearth long-standing behavior patterns and perceptions that have been holding them back. Strengths become opportunities for growth and self-empowerment.”

Many of the students I work with are used to handling things on their own. They're hardworking, care deeply about the people around them and often put a lot of pressure on themselves to keep everything together. From the outside, they may seem like they're doing fine, but inside they're feeling overwhelmed, anxious or unsure of what comes next. If you're looking for a therapist who will listen without judgment, help you make sense of what you're experiencing and work alongside you to create meaningful change, we may be a good fit. You don't have to have everything figured out before you start therapy, just a willingness to show up.

I’m a licensed counselor with a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and discover their strengths. I specialize in working with clients dealing with depression, anxiety, and relationship issues, and I bring a compassionate, collaborative approach to the therapy process. In addition to my general practice, I have extensive experience supporting college students as they work through academic pressures, identity exploration, transitions, and personal growth. I understand that reaching out for support is a brave step, and I’m here to offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore what’s on your mind and begin working toward meaningful change. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a session, feel free to reach out. I’d be honored to be part of your journey. Warm regards,

I am a counselor at The Banyan Tree Center in Athens, Georgia, providing counseling services for children, adolescents, and young adults. I work with clients experiencing concerns such as anxiety, ADHD, emotional regulation difficulties, behavioral challenges, life transitions, grief and loss, and other personal challenges. My approach is collaborative and individualized, incorporating evidence-based approaches including CBT, ACT, and play therapy. I strive to create a supportive environment where clients can better understand themselves, develop practical skills, and work toward meaningful growth. To get started, contact The Banyan Tree Center to schedule an initial consultation. The process will include an intake to discuss your needs and determine whether I may be a good fit. We will also discuss session pricing, fees, and any other questions you may have before beginning counseling.

Do you find yourself constantly second-guessing what you said, worrying about what others think, or feeling stuck in a cycle of overthinking? Or maybe your childhood seemed normal, yet deep down something still feels off? You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in old patterns, or carrying the effects of past experiences that still shape your present. You want to feel safer in your body, more grounded in your emotions, and more connected to yourself and others. I work with adults who are ready for meaningful change and want a therapist who brings warmth, clarity, and evidence-based tools to support deep, sustainable healing. With training in EMDR, CBT, DBT, and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, I blend evidence-based tools with a deeply client-centered approach. My goal is to help you understand your patterns, regulate your emotions, & reconnect with the strengths you may have lost sight of so you can feel more grounded, empowered, & more like yourself. You might be stuck in patterns that no longer serve you. You might be working really hard to break free from old coping strategies that once helped you survive. Together, we can work to build safety, clarity, and confidence moving forward. I know how hard it is to break out of those patterns.

My practice specializes in providing clinical counseling and consulting services for diverse populations from a systemic lens. I provide individual and family counseling, evaluations for ADHD & autism, forensic family law evaluations, as well as clinical supervision for Mental Health Counseling and Marriage & Family Therapy interns seeking licensure in Florida. I focus my clinical work on helping adolescents and teens under stress and adults who have lived through difficult times as children. This means that many of my clients identify as Gen-Z, millennials, and high-achieving professionals who have experienced trauma in their families of origin and desire to seek and engage in healthier relationships with themselves and with others. In the last few years as my practice has become more specialized, a common denominator is that many of my clients are exploring their brain style and its accompanying traits. Consequently, my ideal client is someone exploring how their ADHD, giftedness, and/or autism are impacting their school & work performance, their mental & physical health, and their relationships. Neurodiversity affirming therapy is a client-centered approach that recognizes the diversity of human experience and promotes acceptance, inclusion, and empowerment for individuals with neurological differences. As a result, my therapeutic approach is strengths-based, supportive, goal-oriented, and trauma-informed. As a systemic therapist, that means addressing diversity, gender, power, and other sociocultural dimensions is an inherent part of the work we will do together. My own lived experience combined with over a decade of working with neurodivergent individuals and their families allows me to bring unique perspective and empathy to the therapeutic space. You might like my style if you are craving- or even open to – exploration of your inner child, befriending your body, gaining emotional intelligence, and navigating healthier relationships.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like your emotions are running the show, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. I work with adults who are navigating stress, difficult experiences, and emotions that can make everyday life feel heavier than it should. You might feel like you should be coping better, but something keeps getting in the way. Therapy is a space where we slow things down, make sense of patterns, and build practical skills that actually work in real life. My approach is collaborative, practical, and supportive. I draw from DBT, CBT, trauma-informed, and person-centered therapy, but I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all treatment. I focus on emotional regulation, self-compassion, and helping you feel more grounded and in control without asking you to be perfect. I approach my work with a balance of clinical expertise and lived understanding, always guided by what best supports my clients. Having been on both sides of the therapeutic space, I value creating an environment that feels safe, affirming, and human.

My name is Shannon (she/her), and I came into this field, as many mental health professionals do, in response to my own inner demons and trauma. I have a passion for women’s issues, the queer population, and folx affected by sexual trauma and domestic violence. I am a single mom with two small kids, two cats, and a rambunctious dog, so needless to say I understand the strain of trying to balance a busy life. My approach to therapy is grounded in CBT and feminist therapy, with a few sprinkles of radical acceptance and dark humor. I am also a firm believer that my client is the expert on their own life, and I am happy to adjust my styles and/or make more appropriate referrals when I am not the right fit.

I am a social worker psychotherapist with extensive experience in mental health. I have been working with individuals and families for 40 years and enjoy working with college students. My focus is on developing healthy habits and self enlightenment. I am not afraid of discussing painful or difficult issues and can handle hard emotions. I use cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR for trauma if necessary. I encourage time in the natural world, teach mindfulness and use humor as much as possible.

College and early adulthood can be a time of incredible growth—but it can also be a time when questions about identity, purpose, relationships, independence, and the future become especially difficult to navigate. You may find yourself asking, Who am I? What do I actually want? Am I on the right path? Why do I feel so overwhelmed when everything seems like it should be going well? My approach to counseling is grounded in existential-humanistic therapy, which means I believe you are more than a diagnosis, a difficult experience, or a chapter in your past. I see therapy as a collaborative space where you can be understood as a whole person, explore what gives your life meaning, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself and the choices you want to make. I have extensive training and certifications in trauma and understand how past experiences can continue to influence the way we think, feel, relate to others, and see ourselves. Whether you are processing trauma or simply trying to understand patterns that no longer serve you, we can work together at a pace that feels safe and respectful. I also work with college-aged students experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder, including the ways these challenges can affect academics, relationships, motivation, self-esteem, emotional regulation, and everyday life. My goal is not to tell you who you should be or what your life should look like. Instead, I want to help you better understand yourself, recognize your strengths, work through what has been painful, and make intentional choices about the person and life you want to create. Therapy can be a place to put down the pressure to have everything figured out. You don't have to arrive with the right words or know exactly what you need. We can start where you are. You are not behind. You are becoming. And you don't have to figure it all out alone.

Are you noticing changes in your mood but don't know where to start to get back on track? Do you feel burnt out due to struggles balancing multiple roles and responsibilities? Do you struggle with making your needs a priority? Are you noticing issues in your relationships with communication? Are you worried about making a change but know that you can't stay stuck where you currently are? Welcome to Harris Counseling Services, where we will walk with you on your journey to better. Welcome to a safe, nonjudgemental place where you can breathe, rest, be, learn more about yourself, and work to reach healing, balance, and wholeness. We meet clients between where they used to be and where there want to be. I work with clients to set goals that help them develop understanding, create a skill set to manage unhelpful thinking patterns, and create space for joy and connectedness. I also work to infuse spirituality and faith into the therapeutic practice for clients who are interested. Whether you are feeling scared, tired, depressed, or confused in your current situation, you don't have to walk this journey of change alone. We welcome all but have a special passion for serving Black women who desire to be seen, valued, and welcomed into the therapy space. Reach out today and get closer to the life you've been wanting to live. Note: I can accept insurance for clients in NC, but not GA.

You are the expert on you. I simply seek to work alongside you as a collaborator in your personal growth, healing, and self-discovery. I am certified in EMDR, and I have knowledge and training in working with individuals with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and prenatal/postpartum concerns. We do serious work in session, but I approach my work with lightness, and I firmly believe that lightness lends itself to true connection, growth, and even laughter. I work primarily with adolescents and adults who face relationship challenges, complex trauma, and utilize an eclectic approach. I utilize EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) with many of my clients who have experienced trauma.
