Stillwater Counseling ATL
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, MS
Have you been wondering if you might have autism as an adult? Late diagnoses are more and more common as our society has learned to identify autism more readily. If you're autistic, you might feel like you've always been "weird," or "unusual," or "awkward". Feeling this way has probably helped you craft tremendous inner strength over your lifetime, and it probably led you to formulate some innovative solutions to problems. If you're feeling that your difference is "wrong," it's very important to remember that you're not wrong, you're just different. And different isn't a bad thing! We'll celebrate your differences as strengths that can be used to help you. We'll also work on how you might better understand yourself and others and improve relationships for a better life.

Jessica Anderson, PsyD
Psychologist, PsyD
Navigating social situations, communication, and sensory experiences can sometimes feel overwhelming or confusing. Many teens and young adults also feel pressure to “fit in” while trying to stay true to themselves. I provide a supportive space to better understand your experiences, build social and coping skills, and strengthen self-acceptance. Together, we focus on helping you feel more confident, comfortable, and authentic in your daily life.

Shannon Gorres
Life Coach, MDiv, MA
Many of my clients who have autism appreciate my ability to communicate clearly, give options, and not take it personally if you disagree with me. I'm calm and transparent, here to appreciate and support how each person navigates their world. Many of my clients with autism appreciate my invitations to get to know their feelings- without pressure to have any certain type of experience.

Columbus, Georgia is home to 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 the largest share 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.
