Tomeki Davis
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, NCC, LPC
Imagine moving through each day expecting that at any moment someone or something will jump out of the shadows to harm you. Living with anxiety often creates this feeling. In my practice, I implement strategies based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, and EMDR to help clients manage and reduce symptoms of anxiety.

Matthew Reeves
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, CRC, NCC
There's stress (felt by most people from time to time), and then there's anxiety, a confusing and overwhelming worry that overtakes your capacity to live a happy life. Anxiety can be addressed by first seeking to understand its origins and untangling the emotional knot.

Matt Vaughn
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, LMHC
I have a lot of experience helping people who struggle with anxiety. It's actually one of my main areas of focus, partly because I've dealt with anxiety myself. I know the techniques I'll teach you actually work because I've had to use them in my own life to find relief.

Rena Diamond
Counselor/Therapist, MS, APC, NCC, CCH
Everyone worries, but when we feel overwhelmed by anxious thoughts and behaviors on a daily basis, it can become incapacitating and interfere with daily functioning, robbing us of the capacity for joy. Anxiety can present as physical symptoms, interfering with our sleep and digestion, or as dysfunctional thinking (such as rumination or catastrophic thinking). Some individuals may experience panic attacks, phobias, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, constant worry, or a general feeling of dis-ease.

Kelly Baez

Are you feeling like a panic attack is around the corner? Has your sleep been affected by constant worry? If so, I can help. While anxiety is a normal (and necessary) emotion, it can definitely get out of control! I will show you ways to manage your anxiety in the moment and even prevent it before it happens again.

Lauren Pifer | Present Way Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, MS
I utilize EMDR to help people process fears and anxiety. Underlying many anxiety patterns are past experiences that the nervous system still treats as current. EMDR helps process what keeps fear stuck, allowing relief to feel natural rather than forced.

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.
Everyone feels anxious from time to time. Anxiety is the body's response to real or imagined danger. Sometimes anxiety occurs frequently and can be very distressing. When I work with clients who are experiencing anxiety I look to discover what is causing the anxiety while also helping my clients develop productive coping mechanisms.

Kaijah Bjorklund
Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LMHC
Anxiety has a way of making your world smaller — the what-ifs multiply, you start avoiding more, and even though part of you knows the threat isn't real, your body doesn't get the memo. I work with anxiety at the nervous system level, not just the thought level, because that's where the real change happens. Using EMDR, somatic therapy, and IFS, we help your body learn that you're safe now — so your mind can finally stop scanning for danger and you can start living the life anxiety has been keeping you from.

Dr. Ellen Brackup
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Did you know that anxiety can be the mind’s way of protecting itself from feelings that seem unacceptable? As therapy progresses, the hope is to develop the emotional muscle to sit with all of your feelings, without having to push them away and be anxious instead.

Hadyn Jolly
Counselor/Therapist, MAC, APC
Anxiety is a manifestation of fears and worries, and it can feel so overwhelming if we do not take the time to name our concerns and process through them in the presence of another person. I want to offer a safe and caring environment where you can unpack what is weighing you down and work together to quiet your stress and bring more peace and joy into your life.

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.
