Our clinicians hold space for these emotions and also explore the unique values and purpose each client brings to promote healing and fulfillment.

EFT
Individual and Couples Therapy
Psychologist, PhD
As a therapist who has been practicing for over 20 years, I have developed a well-honed approach, style, skillset, and flow, which helps to make your experience personalized, efficient, responsive, and often highly effective. I possess the intellect and experience to meet you where you are. I intentionally keep my practice small so that I can respond quickly to your needs. Most people do not reach out to therapists because they want to start therapy in 3 months; they probably needed to start yesterday! I can usually get you started within the week and offer flexible scheduling and evening appointments if necessary.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
We often seek therapy because we are hurting and unhappy in our relationships with others and ourselves. Anxiety, sadness, restlessness, and loneliness are often the clues that we feel off-track. Whether you are new to it, or have been in it before, therapy presents the opportunity to invite a professional fellow human into your journey of meaningful living.
I provide evidence-based treatment for anxiety, relational, and trauma-related concerns for neurotypical and neurodivergent adults. I also work with individuals seeking to explore and understand their experiences of gender and sexuality. Our work begins with clarifying the nature of and sources of your concerns, setting a path forward, and working together to help you implement and maintain the changes you seek.

What makes my therapy practice stand out is my deep-rooted passion for helping individuals on their journey to a balanced life. With nearly a decade of experience as a therapist, I've had the privilege of working with clients who, like you, are navigating the delicate dance of ambition and mental well-being, dealing with the weight of cultural expectations, and facing relationship challenges.
My approach is not just professional; it's personal. I'm here to offer a safe, empathetic space where we can work together to find the strategies and insights you need to thrive. Your story is important, and I'm excited to be a part of your journey towards a happier, healthier you. Don't hesitate to reach out, and let's get started.

Dr. Mitchell Roth
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, JD, PsyD, LMHC
First, know that I am licensed in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina and see patients virtually in each state and accept most insurance. My starting point with patients is that virtually all mental health issues result from habits of thought, feelings, or behavior that were adaptive when they were formed but become maladaptive later in life. I begin my work by asking, "What happened to you?" rather than "What's wrong with you?" I try to point the way to personal growth allowing for more flexability in your responses to the things that happen in your life. I am happy to listen to you. To hear you. But, while its important to be seen and heard, its equally important to continue working for change in your life.

Athens is home to the University of Georgia and has cultivated a reputation as one of the South's most vibrant college cities, with a legendary music scene—birthplace of R.E.M. and the B-52s—a strong arts community, and a progressive political culture that contrasts with the surrounding rural Georgia context, producing a city with a well-developed and diverse therapy landscape relative to its size. UGA's Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS) is the primary mental health resource for the city's enormous student population, and a well-developed private therapy sector serves the broader community including university staff, the arts and music community, and permanent residents. The sharp economic inequality between the university and creative communities and the city's lower-income and Black neighborhoods is an important dimension of the mental health landscape, and therapists in Athens work across a wide range of economic and cultural contexts. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, creative community stress, identity and LGBTQ+ issues, racial equity, and the challenges of a city where prosperity and poverty exist in close proximity.
