Mary Elizabeth Burns, MS, NCC, LPC
Counselor/Therapist, MS, NCC, LPC
What makes my work different is that I meet each client as a whole person—mind, body, and emotions. I blend evidence-based therapies like DBT with somatic approaches and breathwork to help clients not just talk through challenges, but feel and release the stress stored in their bodies. I work with teens, adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, PTSD, ADHD, disordered eating, perfectionism, and the pressures of high achievement, as well as divorce and co-parenting transitions. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and practical: I help clients feel seen, supported, and empowered to create lasting change in their relationships, their bodies, and their lives.

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.
