Ashley Omar
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CPCS
I am a trauma-informed therapist with over 15 years of experience helping individuals, couples, families, and children navigate life’s challenges. Through my virtual practice, BrainPower Hour, I work with clients throughout Georgia who may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in difficult patterns, or struggling with relationship issues, stress, or unresolved past experiences.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that therapy should be a space where you feel safe to explore your story without judgment. I often integrate trauma-informed and parts-based approaches to help clients better understand the different aspects of themselves and develop healthier ways of coping and relating.
Many people come to therapy wanting clarity, emotional relief, or stronger relationships. My goal is to help you gain insight, build resilience, and reconnect with your strengths so you can move forward with greater confidence and balance.

Danny Boylan
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
My work as a therapist begins with creating a space that feels genuinely safe, private, and respectful — a place where you don’t have to censor yourself or worry about being judged. I place a strong emphasis on building a trusting, collaborative relationship, because feeling understood and accepted is often a powerful catalyst for meaningful change in itself.
I aim to meet clients exactly where they are, taking time to understand their unique experiences while supporting them in moving toward the changes they want to make in their lives. My primary therapeutic approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on how shifts in thoughts, perceptions, and behaviors can lead to meaningful changes in emotional well-being.
In addition to being a Licensed Professional Counselor, I am also a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor and a National Certified Counselor. My professional background and personal interests have shaped my focus on working with anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, relationship challenges, career and life transitions, existential questions, and a general sense of feeling stuck or dissatisfied.
I am LGBTQ+ affirming and offer secular therapy, welcoming clients who prefer an approach grounded in psychology rather than religious or spiritual frameworks. I provide HIPAA-compliant video therapy and am often able to help clients get started without a long wait. Choosing a therapist is an important decision, so I offer a free 15-minute consultation to help you determine whether working together feels like a good fit.

Recovering from PTSD and trauma can feel intimidating, especially when painful memories of abuse begin to surface. My role as a therapist is to provide a safe, steady, and compassionate space where you can begin to process what happened and discover that healing is possible. We can also work together to build healthier coping skills that support recovery and help reduce reliance on addictive behaviors. You do not have to face this alone—take the first step toward healing today.
