Therapists for college students near Georgia State University
Hi, I’m Nikoleta! I’m an international doctoral student from Greece, and for the past seven years I’ve called the U.S. home—living in both the Northeast and the South.

I’m passionate about uplifting and centering voices that have historically been excluded, both within my own communit...

I aim to create a warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative space where cli...

That kind of in-betweenness can carry invisible grief, deep resilience, and stories that are layered and complex. Therapy with me is a place where all of that gets to exist. Where silence—once a survival strat...
