Addictions or Substance Abuse
Chuck Satterwhite
Pre-Licensed Professional, MA, MDiv
I have worked with many clients who have struggled with addiction and sobriety and the myriad of complicated feelings addiction brings. My approach is compassion-based and initially focuses on harm reduction. Through personal experience and working with clients, I've learned addiction is not always about the substance, but what's underlying -- like trauma, hurt, simply surviving. We will work together to reduce harm, find healthy ways of surviving and coping, and explore what is sitting under the addiction.

Addictions or Substance Abuse
Kelly Baez
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, LPC
Embarking on the journey towards sobriety is a courageous step, and you don't have to walk this path alone. As an experienced addiction counselor, I believe in providing compassionate support tailored to your unique needs and circumstances. Whether you're transitioning from an inpatient program, seeking to address trauma alongside intensive outpatient work, or striving to maintain long-term sobriety, counseling can be a valuable tool in your recovery journey.
In our sessions, we'll focus not just on abstaining from substances, but on understanding the underlying issues driving your addiction. Together, we'll explore healthier coping mechanisms and develop practical strategies to navigate life's challenges without relying on substances for relief. My approach is rooted in the belief that addiction is not a moral failing, but a complex issue that requires empathy, understanding, and a commitment to change.
Let's work together to uncover your inner strength, cultivate resilience, and build a life filled with purpose, fulfillment, and sobriety. Your journey to recovery starts here.

8 Years Experience
In-Person Near Atlanta, GA
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.
