Mikela Hallmark
Therapist, MS, LPC, LMHC
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to what lives beneath the surface — the unspoken tension in a room, the quiet ache behind someone’s words, the patterns that repeat in our lives no matter how hard we try to outgrow them. Counseling, for me, was never just a profession; it was I felt passionate about. Training refined it. Time and practice deepened it.
I’ve spent over 14 years walking alongside people in the most vulnerable, honest, and transformative moments of their lives. I’ve worked in residential settings, universities, private practice — and now run therapy group built around one core belief: meaningful change is possible when people feel seen, not managed.

Kelly Baez
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Trauma recovery is deeply personal, and I understand how overwhelming it can feel to take that first step. That’s why I’ve dedicated my practice to offering EMDR Intensives—focused, online sessions designed to provide a safe and efficient way to process and heal from trauma.
As a counselor specializing in trauma, I’ve seen how unresolved experiences can impact every aspect of life. Whether it’s attachment wounds, traumatic grief, or other life-altering events, my goal is to create a space where you feel supported and empowered to move forward at a pace that feels right for you. EMDR Intensives allow us to dive deep into your healing journey, with the flexibility of 3- or 6-hour sessions that fit into your busy life.
Healing takes courage, and I’m here to help you reclaim your peace and clarity. Wherever you are in your journey, I’m honored to walk this path with you.
To ensure that working together is a good fit, I offer a free 15-minute consultation. Contact me now to schedule. I look forward to hearing from you!

Palmer McCluskey, LPC
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
I am very passionate about helping other people as I believe that every person is inherently valuable and worthy of living a meaningful and balanced life.
As a therapist, I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment for my clients. Much of my clinical experience includes working with adults and adolescents who struggle with addiction, depression, and anxiety. I also enjoy working with those who are simply in the process of adjusting to challenging life circumstances and events (i.e., the loss of a loved one, starting a new job, coping with a global pandemic). In all of these cases, I believe that change and healing take place in the context of relationships with others, and I consider it a privilege to cultivate therapeutic relationships with people who are working towards making meaningful changes.
I draw from several theories of psychotherapy, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and person-centered therapy. As a clinician who also has an educational background in theological studies, I integrate spirituality and spiritual formation into counseling when desired by clients, always with the intention of helping clients achieve their goals.

Hadyn Jolly
Counselor/Therapist, MAC, APC
I work with couples and individuals who want to understand how their past is affecting their present, especially in their relationships. Wounds that we carry around with us can cause us to struggle with things like anger, anxiety, depression, and loneliness. It can be very beneficial to have someone to guide you in unpacking your experiences to bring awareness of how you operate and what is behind the behaviors that you want to change. I would be honored to enter into your world to help you alter your unhealthy patterns and speak life into your negative beliefs about yourself so that you can walk in freedom and joy.
I am also a committed follower of Jesus, so Christianity can be incorporated into our sessions if that is your preference.

Allison Cordts - Sunrise Therapy for Mental Health
Licensed Professional Counselor, M.A., LPC
i have been a licensed therapist providing therapy since 2014. As all therapists will tell you, this career is very rewarding and most of us love what we do - helping people. What makes me different is I am laser-focused on helping each and every client learn their own personal power and how they can replace sadness and fear with joy and fulfillment. We'll do this by addressing your past trauma's, family dysfunction, as well as distorted thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that developed as a result of growing up and older in unhealthy relationships. Gaining awareness, changing these patterns, and learning effective coping skills, is key to stopping anxiety and depression (most common struggles) and any other issues that may be robbing you of the life you so desperately want and deserve. In addition to focusing on mental health, I'm currently working on another degree to get certified as a holistic practitioner, so I have a wealth of information regarding natural healing and steps toward physical wellness if a client wants or needs that type of information and support.

Erika Gray
Psychologist, Psy.D
Why is it so hard to find a therapist? So many people arrive here exhausted from the search. I understand that your connection to your therapist is paramount to your healing. I offer a free consultation to give you a chance to see if we're a good "fit" with the hope that this can be a place to stop, rest and begin the process you've been longing to begin.

Dr. Elizabeth Richards
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I’m a licensed, doctoral-level, PSYPACT-certified Clinical Psychologist who works thoughtfully and collaboratively with adults of all ages. My goal is to help you build greater insight into yourself and your relationships, connect past experiences with the present, and move through the internal barriers that may be keeping you from a deeper sense of well-being and satisfaction in life. After over a decade of practice in New York City, I’ve developed a particular understanding of individuals who are high-achieving yet often hard on themselves — people who appear to have it all together, but feel anxious, self-critical, or stuck beneath the surface. I work best with individuals who are curious about understanding themselves more deeply — those who may be thriving externally yet long for greater ease, meaning, and self-compassion. Together, we’ll create a space where you can be heard, understood, and supported as you explore the roots of how you think, feel, and relate to others. Feel free to reach out for a complementary 15-minute consultation if you think I might be the right therapist for you.

Joy Freilich
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMHC
Life can be hard. Sometimes we have difficulty communicating with our partner, boss, children, or our parents. Sometimes we have difficulty adjusting to a new environment or new life circumstances. At times, we may feel stuck and unsure of how to make changes in our lives. Other times we may want to delve deeper and truly understand our motivations and desires. Sometimes we just need to feel heard and understood. Having an unbiased, non judgmental person to talk to can help.

Dr. Allison Williams

I specialize in helping those who are anxious and overwhelmed learn to recognize and honor their needs - it may mean: giving yourself permission to slow down, scale back, set healthy boundaries, go after what you truly want, and be yourself (authentically and unapologetically). As your partner on this journey, I’ll help you muster your strength, foster your self-acceptance, and feel more at ease.
If you’ve always cast aside your own needs to give everyone and everything your all, I want to help you finally get what you deserve: better relationships, self-care, and greater life satisfaction.

Atlanta's rapid growth as a major business hub has intensified demand for therapists specializing in workplace stress, burnout, and anxiety among its large professional population. The city has a vibrant and well-established Black community, and many therapists focus on culturally affirming care, racial identity, and intergenerational trauma. Long commutes and sprawl are a persistent stressor for many residents, and a large share of Atlanta therapists offer extended hours and telehealth options across the metro area. Piedmont Healthcare and Emory Healthcare anchor institutional mental health services alongside the city's extensive private practice community.
