Struggling to adjust to college life? Feeling stuck? Wondering why you keep finding yourself in the same struggle, experiencing the same pain or relationship issues, yet again? Or perhaps you feel invisible or unheard, or can't find your own voice? I work with clients to explore how unresolved issues from the past impact the present. In an open and safe environment, we explore authentic feelings and lost aspects of self often censored in general society, toward greater personal insight, growth and change. An accepting and validating therapy relationship can be a key element in the healing of old wounds and opening up of new possibilities. I work primarily from a psychodynamic and relational orientation to work with the deep long-term wounds, traumas, and patterns that shape self-perceptions and influence current experiences and struggles. I will incorporate other modalities as applicable. All genders, sexual orientations, and races/ethnicities welcome. I also offer Brainspotting, a cutting edge EMDR derivative, neurobiological trauma treatment. I am intensively trained in psychoanalytic theory and practice, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT) for Couples. I also bring over 25 years of corporate experience to my understanding of real world problems that clients struggle with.

All Is Well Counseling, LLC.

Licensed Professional Counselor
Online
Mableton, GA

The mission of All Is Well Counseling, LLC. is to support Black women and POC college students, young professionals, and established professionals looking to heal and grow into who they see themselves becoming. Phallon Foxworth is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia. She received her Bachelor’s in Psychology from Spelman College and her Master’s in Mental Health Counseling and Behavioral Medicine from Boston University School of Medicine’s Graduate Medical Sciences Division. She has experience in conducting individual and group therapy and has worked in various settings, including correctional facilities, partial hospitalization programs, private practice, and community mental health agencies. Phallon utilizes an integrated approach of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused, Person-Centered Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR). She emphasizes the importance of making the therapeutic space one without pressure or fear of judgment. This essentially means that she believes in taking the time to pay attention to behaviors, making the space to validate feelings, and giving permission to truly explore how one's thoughts impact their reality. In therapy with Phallon, you will be supported in addressing your concerns and receive assistance as you develop practical, tangible solutions that you can take away from each and every session. You also have the opportunity to engage in processing and healing from past traumas, guilt, anger, and anxiety through the research-backed approach of EMDR. While all of this is occurring, you will receive affirmations of who you are and where you’re headed in your journey to recite as often as you need. You will learn new skills and develop further insights into who you are becoming, not continuing to live a life dictated by who others have told you to be. You will have a tool kit of coping strategies, solutions, and activities that you can engage in to support your growth. Additionally, she believes in having a safe space to explore yourself, make mistakes, and be imperfect (in other words: be human).

Psychiatrist

Decatur, GA

I am inspired to work in mental health care because I am passionate about helping individuals overcome challenges, find resilience, and achieve a better quality of life. I find it deeply rewarding to be part of my patients’ journeys toward healing and growth, and I value the opportunity to address the stigma around Mental Health and advocate for compassionate, evidence-based care. I ensure patients feel heard and understood by actively listening, reflecting their thoughts and feelings, and validating their experiences. I create a safe, non-judgmental space, pay attention to verbal and nonverbal cues, and tailor my approach to their unique needs, fostering trust and collaboration. Building trust and a strong Therapeutic Alliance with my patients begins with creating a safe, nonjudgmental, and empathetic environment where they feel heard and respected. I approach each patient with genuine curiosity about their experiences and ensure that I validate their emotions and perspectives. Consistency and reliability are key, so I strive to communicate clearly and follow through on what I say. I also prioritize transparency by explaining my thought process, treatment recommendations, and the rationale behind decisions to involve the patient in their care plan actively. Additionally, I respect their autonomy and individuality, recognizing that trust is earned over time through mutual collaboration and demonstrating my commitment to their well-being.

At WellBeing NP, we work best with students who feel overwhelmed, burned out, or under pressure to “keep it together.” Many of the students we see are dealing with anxiety, ADHD, low mood, trouble sleeping, or stress from school, relationships, and life transitions. This is a good fit if you want someone who listens, explains things clearly, and helps you figure out a plan that actually feels manageable while you’re in school.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist

Atlanta, GA

Hi, I'm Shanakay. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with adolescents, teens, and adults across Georgia, Florida, Kansas, and Missouri. Life has a way of handing us more than we feel ready for, and when that happens, having someone in your corner can make all the difference. That is the role I hope to play. I especially enjoy walking with people through anxiety, depression, stress, and big life transitions. These challenges can feel overwhelming and isolating, but they are often where the most meaningful growth happens. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and evidence-based, drawing on CBT and DBT to help you build practical skills that create real, lasting change in everyday life. Therapy, to me, is a space for growth, healing, and self-discovery, a chance to understand yourself more fully and create change that fits your values and goals. I hold onto a simple belief that guides my work: growth begins the moment you believe change is possible. I see clients through WellQor, which offers online therapy so we can connect from wherever you are most comfortable. To begin, visit the WellQor website and complete the Get Started form. A patient liaison will then text you the next steps and help schedule your first session. When I'm not with clients, you'll find me with family and friends, outdoors, and traveling whenever I can.

You're probably managing just fine by most measures. But if you're a high-functioning professional or student who's quietly exhausted, anxious, or burning out beneath the surface, you've found someone who understands. I specialize in supporting adults navigating anxiety, depression, and burnout. With over seven years of clinical experience rooted in crisis intervention work, I've developed a practical, grounded understanding of how people cope under real pressure. My goal is to help you move from surviving to actually feeling like yourself again. If that lands for you, I'd love to connect! I focus on helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, and burnout using evidence based practices (CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing). My style is direct yet curious, and my practice is grounded in unconditional positive regard and a non-judgmental stance. You’ve probably heard the question a thousand times: is the glass half empty, or half full? I think that’s the wrong question. Some days the glass feels emptier than others. My approach is to remind you that you have a opportunity to replenish at anytime. Your glass is always refillable and that is the work we do together. I look forward to working with you!

Licensed Professional Counselor

I help people who are feeling overwhelmed get back on track. I assist young adults anxious about work or life and who need support and tools to move ahead. Clients of all ages may be going through challenges or life transitions that show up as anxiety or depression or just feeling stuck. I also work with individuals and couples who are stuck in relationship patterns that no longer work for them. I’m knowledgeable about a variety of techniques such as cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based therapy, but I use a variety of approaches to helping my clients. As you might expect from my location in the heart of Atlanta, my clients are a diverse group of men and women. I strive to be an anti-racist therapist responsive to the needs of Black clients and other people of color. As a gay man I strongly support empowerment of women. LGBTQ concerns are a special focus of mine; you have the right to expect your therapist to be comfortable and knowledgeable about your concerns. I’ve been in private practice in Atlanta for more than 30 years. I work out of comfortable and tranquil home office in the Virginia-Highland neighborhood. (I also offer video sessions if that’s more convenient.) My clients find me engaged, supportive and nonjudgmental. Whether you’ve made use of counseling and therapy before or are seeking a counselor for the first time, I welcome questions you might have about working together.
