Atlanta, Georgia therapist: Kelly Baez, licensed professional counselor
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.

Prescott, Arizona therapist: Lisa Cleary, licensed clinical social worker
Addictions or Substance Abuse

Lisa Cleary

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
If you find yourself turning to alcohol, relationships, food, or other behaviors to cope, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken. Many addictive patterns develop as a way to manage overwhelming emotions, stress, or unresolved experiences. In therapy, we focus on understanding what’s driving the urge rather than just trying to control it. Using approaches like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and trauma-informed therapies, I help you build healthier ways to cope, reduce shame, and create lasting change so you can feel more in control of your choices and your life.

7 Years Experience
Online in Columbus, GA
Columbus, Georgia is home to Fort Moore (formerly Fort Benning) — one of the US Army's largest installations and the home of the Army Infantry — creating a therapy community substantially shaped by the needs of soldiers, veterans, and military families dealing with combat trauma, moral injury, PTSD, and the emotional complexity of service life. The city's African American population comprises a majority of the civilian community, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity and intergenerational resilience alongside the predominantly military therapy demand are an important part of the local landscape. Martin Army Community Hospital serves the military population, while Piedmont Columbus Regional provides civilian institutional mental health resources. Columbus shares some of its therapy ecosystem with Phenix City, Alabama directly across the Chattahoochee River, giving the metro a bi-state character.
