Yourdeline Sertyl
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Many high-achieving adults look successful on the outside but internally struggle with anxiety, overthinking, burnout, or a constant feeling of not being “good enough.” If you’re used to being the strong one for everyone else, it can feel difficult to slow down and take care of your own emotional needs.
I specialize in helping adults manage anxiety, rebuild self-trust, and develop healthier boundaries so life no longer feels overwhelming. My approach combines evidence-based strategies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with a supportive, culturally aware style that helps you understand the patterns behind your thoughts, emotions, and relationships.
Through online therapy, we’ll work together to help you quiet the inner critic, strengthen your confidence, and create lasting change so you can move through life with more clarity, balance, and self-compassion.

Allison Cava
Therapist, LMSW
This is an open and supportive space where you are welcome to be exactly who you are. Many people move through their days feeling unseen, unheard, or carrying more than they’re able to share. Therapy can be a place to pause, reflect, and explore your inner world with the support of someone offering a neutral, compassionate perspective — or simply a space to speak freely and be heard.

Lisa Cleary
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck in their thoughts, or disconnected from themselves and the people they care about. You may look like you’re holding everything together on the outside, while inside you feel anxious, exhausted, or unsure of what you actually need.
I help adults work through anxiety, trauma, and relationship stress in a way that goes deeper than just coping skills. Together, we’ll slow things down, understand the patterns that are keeping you stuck, and build a stronger sense of clarity and self-trust. I often integrate approaches like CBT, EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, and parts work (IFS) to help you not just manage symptoms, but truly heal.
Clients often tell me they feel more confident in setting healthy boundaries, have a stronger sense of self-worth, and are better able to navigate difficult emotions without shutting down or becoming overwhelmed.
If you're ready for therapy that feels both supportive and meaningful, I’d be honored to work with you.

Ashley Omar
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CPCS
Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that keep repeating—either within yourself or in your relationship? You may notice emotions escalating quickly, conversations turning into arguments, or feeling unheard or disconnected. Many individuals and couples come to therapy emotionally exhausted, wanting more calm, clarity, and healthier ways to relate but unsure how to break the cycle.
I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults and couples struggling with anxiety, emotional reactivity, and relationship conflict. With over 16 years of experience in the mental health field, I help clients understand what drives these patterns, regulate emotions, and build practical communication and coping skills for lasting change.
When stress, past experiences, or repeated conflict take over, it can feel discouraging and isolating. Therapy offers a supportive, structured space to slow things down and create healthier ways of relating—to yourself and to others. You deserve support that feels safe, effective, and respectful.

Amy L Gould
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-S, NCC, CCMHC
Hello and welcome to my private practice. Video sessions are a convenient way to do therapy from your own confidential private space. I provide counseling services via Telehealth for adult individuals. My home state is Ohio and I am only contracted in Ohio to provide any Medicaid services though I am accepting other insurances as out-of-network. I am able to accept Medicare in the states where I am licensed as I am an in-network Medicare provider. If you are seeking an assessment for disability or some other purpose, I would not be able to accept your insurance for Telehealth sessions for that purpose, just for counseling and therapy. Your video sessions deserve the same level of privacy and importance as an in-person session and most people get the most out of sessions when they give them full attention. I prefer in-person sessions since they offer the highest level of confidentiality and conveyance of non-verbal communication, but the convenience of video sessions can make them very worthwhile. Whether you want a combination of in-person and Telehealth, in-person only, or only Telehealth, I may be able to accommodate you. Please note that when you utilize insurance, medical necessity and a mental health diagnosis must be established to bill insurance. I do offer private pay services for people who do not have or want to use insurance.

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.
