Marietta, GA

Hi everyone, my name is Emma Hickey and I am a recent graduate from Kennesaw State University's Master of Social Work program. My practice utilizes a client centered approach which focuses on and emphasizes client’s individual strengths and empowers clients to decide what is best for them. I help clients learn to integrate Cognitive Behavioral techniques to help identify the connection of thought, behavior, and emotion. I focus on interpersonal relationships and self-talk via storytelling. I incorporate narrative therapy techniques to empower clients to become the authors of their own stories. Additionally, I help clients learn and incorporate Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills to provide in the moment relief to intense emotions.

Making the decision to begin your therapeutic journey can feel overwhelming. My goal is to create a safe environment for you to grow and explore the things that have been holding you back. This could be feelings of anxiety, trauma, communication issues, difficulty establishing boundaries, toxic relationships with family or friends, or a major change in your life that has left you feeling confused or lost. Our work together will include identifying triggers and patterns of behavior, as well as recognizing roadblocks and reframing negative thoughts. I have some specialty areas including trauma, adoption, foster care, LGBTQIA, anxiety, relationships, parenting, and divorce. I've been trained in Training for Adoption Competency with C.A.S.E., EMDR, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and other modalities. I emphasize collaboration in my sessions and provide a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere. I would be happy to discuss if I am the right person to work with you. Reaching out can be a difficult, but important step. Starting counseling takes a lot of courage and I commend you for beginning your search for a counselor by visiting this page. Please reach out with any questions you may have, I am happy to help!

Snellville, GA

You’re lying awake late at night, stuck in your own head, wishing you could just turn it off. The worry loops won’t stop. The what-ifs keep coming. Maybe you’re caught in rituals, mental checks, reassurance-seeking, or avoidance that feels impossible to explain to anyone else. You’ve tried to push through it, distract yourself, calm yourself down, or “be logical,” but it keeps coming back. And at some point, you start to wonder if this is just how life is going to feel. It doesn’t have to be. This is where I come in. I help young adults untangle anxiety and OCD in a way that actually leads to change, not just temporary relief. My work is practical, direct, and focused on helping you get your life back, not just manage symptoms forever. The goal isn’t to make anxiety disappear overnight. It’s to stop organizing your life around it. General therapy often isn’t enough for OCD and severe anxiety. It can feel supportive, but the patterns stay the same. That’s why I use targeted, evidence-based approaches that are designed specifically for anxiety disorders, OCD, and phobias. I also work with LGBTQ+ clients and support young adults struggling with self-harm or suicidal thoughts in a way that is honest, grounded, and focused on real change. If anxiety, OCD, or fear is running your life, or quietly shrinking it, you don’t have to handle it alone. You deserve support that actually makes sense for what you’re dealing with. Reach out to set up a free 15-minute phone consultation and we can talk about what’s going on and what real help could look like for you.

Canton, GA

Hi, My name is Heather and I have been working as an individual and family therapist for over 10 years. Through my professional experiences, I have found a love for working with younger adult clients and currently work with many undergraduate and graduate college student. I enjoy my work in helping to identify what isn't working for clients in their individual lives or in their relationships and finding alternative ways of thinking and responding that support mental wellness. My experience is is mostly in the areas of symptoms commonly experienced by those struggling with ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD. I work mainly with cognitive models of therapy and am trained in EMDR, and have experience with other theories of psychology that I interweave into my practice, depending on what clients needs are and what they respond positively to. Ultimately I think the connection between therapist and client is the most important part of the therapeutic relationship and I truly enjoy getting to know my clients on a personal level through the clinical work we engage in. I'd appreciate your consideration in your searches for a therapist to work with.

Hi! My name is Katie (she/her), and I’m excited to work together. My goal is to help you feel safe, comfortable, and free to open up at your own pace. I believe our experiences—past and present—shape the way we think, feel, and move through life. By exploring and validating your thoughts and emotions, we can start to untangle patterns, make sense of what feels overwhelming, and work toward healing. I’m here to support you whether you’re navigating depression, anxiety, grief, body dysmorphia, sexual and gender identity issues, relationship/work stress, and/or chronic illness. Finding the right words to express what you’re feeling isn’t always easy, and that’s okay. Sessions are tailored to what feels right for you. We’ll draw from psychodynamic, somatic, creative arts, and other trauma-informed approaches. Empathy, warmth, and humor are central to my practice, creating a space where you can explore and grow. Currently, I’m an MSW student at Yeshiva University in New York City and hold an MA in Clinical Psychology from Columbia University. I look forward to meeting you! -- Katie Colton is a therapist-in-training at Sol Health.

Sometimes life feels overwhelming and out of control, and it can leave us feeling consumed by stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and hopelessness. While these emotions are an expected part of life, there are times they can grow so strong and intense that we feel powerless to manage them on our own. We may see their impact on various parts of our life – family, work, social relationships, our ability to feel pleasure, and our overall quality of life. If this resonates with you, if this is what you are experiencing, therapy can help. For more than 20 years, I’ve helped individuals face life’s challenges by assisting them in understanding their own emotional patterns and supporting them in making healthy choices. With time, effort, and the right tools, you can have a better outlook on any issues that life brings your way. Feeling uncertain and unsure where to start? Give me a call or message me to schedule your first appointment. My Experience and Practice Throughout my 20+ years of experience in community mental health, I have provided individual, family, and group therapy to adults and families with various diagnoses, struggles, and difficulties. My specialties are mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, personality disorders, self-esteem, adjustment issues, life transitions, and women's issues. I tend to have a more eclectic approach to therapy, drawing from multiple modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical-Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, as well as various trauma therapies, including Trauma-Focused CBT and Cognitive Processing Therapy. What to Expect: You determine your treatment goals, and together, we will identify the steps needed to reach them. Our work together will focus on developing the skills and tools necessary to effectively manage your emotions, handle distress, problem-solve, and have the life you want. We will work on improving those areas of your life that feel like a struggle. As you gain insight and understanding, self-growth occurs. With that growth comes change, and, in that change, you will find your life worth living. Life may feel dark now, but brighter days are ahead. Services are available in my office in Evans, GA, or via a secure telehealth platform. Insurance accepted: Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, United Healthcare, Oxford, and Oscar Health. Private Pay Session Fee: $140 for a 50-minute session.
