Dr. Ryan Kitts Schallon
Psychologist, PsyD
We often think of ourselves as what we are given, but instead it's what we make of what we're given. I am guided by a view of identity as a creative narrative and see distress as often occurring when we feel stuck in that creation, bound to selves and lives that aren't working. The goal in therapy is not only to understand how and why we got stuck, but to reengage with our creative and imaginative selves, allowing us to explore new facets of ourselves and experiment with new ways of being. In many ways, we reduce suffering by reintroducing play in our worlds.

Allison Cava
Therapist, LMSW
With over 16 years of experience across diverse settings and populations, I bring a depth of perspective that allows me to meet people where they are. I often describe my work as “people service” — a genuine commitment to connecting with others in meaningful, human ways. As a therapist, I am committed to supporting emerging adults and adults navigating depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, trauma, self-image concerns, and personal growth. I work with individuals who feel stuck in repetitive or unhelpful thought patterns, overwhelmed by ongoing stress, or searching for clarity in the midst of major life adjustments. I provide particular support for those facing systemic challenges or significant transitions, helping clients strengthen their emotional, physical, and relational well-being in ways that feel sustainable and grounded. I am also deeply interested in exploring questions of life purpose and meaning — understanding how insight and clarity can guide your decisions, relationships, and overall direction.

Allyse Teltser
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Clients often share that they experience me as approachable, compassionate, and down-to-earth - someone who creates safety while also being willing to step into the hard conversations. In our work together, you can expect a trauma-informed, nonjudgmental space where your story is respected, along with concrete strategies to support behavior change, strengthen relationships, and clarify your identity and values.
You don’t have to navigate this alone. If you’re ready to take the next step, I welcome you to reach out for a consultation. I look forward to connecting with you and supporting your path forward.

Amanda Cummings Brandenburg
Psychologist, PhD
I am a counseling psychologist with a high level of personal responsibility and a strong drive to provide high-quality counseling services. I strive to individualize my services to each client’s needs and do not follow a “one-size-fits-all” approach. I believe therapy is an art AND a science and pay special attention to the needs and preferences of each client. I keep a small caseload to help prevent burnout and to allow myself to better focus on the individuals I serve.
I identify as a first-generation college student, a cycle-breaker, and a mother to a child with a disability called Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA). I know what it is like to persevere and overcome hardships in everyday life. I also strongly value bringing humanness and humility to my counseling practice, allowing for authentic connection.

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.
