Therapists for college students near 30309

I understand how challenging and overwhelming college life can be. Between juggling classes, navigating relationships, and planning for the future, it’s easy to feel stressed, stuck, or uncertain. I’m here to help you tackle these challenges head-on. If you’re feeling anxious about academic pressures, overwhelmed by life transitions, or struggling with self-doubt, you’re not alone. Maybe you’re dealing with feelings of isolation, unresolved difficulties from the past, or relationship conflicts. Whatever it is, I’m here to support you. My approach is all about helping you feel understood and empowered. I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you focus on what truly matters to you and build the tools to move toward your goals. I also offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which can help you move beyond past difficulties—whether they are related to trauma or other challenges—that may be contributing to present issues. Together, we’ll work through what’s holding you back and create a personalized plan to help you thrive. College is a time of growth, and it’s also a time to learn how to balance life’s demands while taking care of yourself. I can help you manage stress, improve your relationships, and build a mindset that helps you face challenges with confidence. You don’t have to go through this alone—I’m here to walk with you every step of the way.

Cura Couples & Family Therapy Center of Atlanta is a private practice of Black female clinicians who specialize in attachment based therapeutic strategies to help you with relational challenges individually, as a couple or within a family unit. We help clients live life a little better. If your relationship is on the rocks, how can you possibly study? If your family is not understanding who you are, how can you be okay? If you’re overwhelmed by the transition to college, a new state and not knowing anyone here, how can you imagine staying and doing well? College life simply put is different and when added to trying to maintain grades, sports, learning independence and possibly learning differences, anxiety can get pretty high. Cura can help! We have immediate availability and you can schedule directly on the website. We offer reduced rates and virtual sessions too!

You might be navigating ADHD, perfectionism, or simply questioning your next steps. My approach is about meeting you where you are and helping you explore how your past experiences, relationships, and emotions connect to your present challenges. Together, we’ll work toward greater self-compassion, better habits, and a clearer sense of what makes life meaningful to you.

I firmly believe in collaborating with my clients and working together to set realistic goals that feel manageable and empowering. While I'm all about providing practical and helpful support, I also think humor has a special place in the therapeutic process. It's a powerful tool that can bring lightness and healing. To make sure I custom tailor my approach to your unique needs, I draw from a variety of therapeutic modalities, such as Person Centered, Somatic Healing & Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems, and Transactional Analysis.

About me: My wife and I moved to Atlanta from Michigan in 2009, and we currently live in EAV with our dog, Helmet. When I’m not “therapizing,” you can find me looking at street art, pretending to be a chef, and seeking a deeper spiritual connection. ~ Matthew sees adults and teens, individuals and couples.

I have years of experience working with students at the high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels in different settings. I thoroughly enjoy working with children, adolescents, and young adults. As a licensed psychologist having worked at different settings and with different age groups, I appreciate the nuance that each person brings to the therapy or assessment room. I work collaboratively with clients to figure out the solutions that will best meet each individual’s specific needs. For some, that can mean implementing certain strategies and solutions, while others might require a closer look at one’s identity and close relationships to determine a good path forward. I do my best to ensure that you feel valued, understood, and respected. I specialize in therapy of children, adolescents, and young adults. I have special interests in areas of treatment involving anxiety, depression, attention and learning difficulties, self-esteem and self-exploration, men’s issues, and online gaming and technology addictions. I incorporate tenets of CBT and psychodynamic therapy in my work. I highly value the rapport and connections I build with my clients, as they play the biggest role in determining the outcomes of treatment. If you're interested in starting therapy or assessment services, please don't hesitate to contact me. I hope to have the opportunity to work with you.

Hello and welcome to my page! Reaching out is the first step towards healing and I'm glad you are here. My therapeutic style is warm, compassionate, and honest. Before moving into private practice I worked in a variety of therapeutic settings at the inpatient and residential level of care. I am passionate about helping others look back at the experiences that have shaped who they are so they might have a clearer and more satisfying path forward. I draw from a combination of techniques including psychodynamic and attachment theories. If you find that you have difficulty functioning in everyday life, finding joy, communicating effectively and maintaining healthy boundaries in relationships, I would love to work with you. As a counselor, I work with individuals struggling with little t trauma (emotional abuse, prolonged stress, chronic disappointment, abandonment, neglect, relational distress with family members and/or significant other), grief/loss, women’s issues, spiritual trauma, and those who would like to learn more about their attachment style. Outside of work my interests include hiking, kickboxing, paddle boarding and traveling anywhere a place, train, car, or boat can take me.

Research shows that it is the relationship between the client and the therapist that is the most important factor for success. I work to build a collaborative relationship that is rich, trusting, and productive. I look to encourage curiosity toward our experiences, where thoughts and patterns can be put into words. My work with people often centers around feelings of anxiety, dissatisfaction with important relationships or career, confusing ways of behaving, and a lack of clarity about why we feel the way we do. Often there is the sense that previous ways of being and thinking in the world may not be working as well as they used to. I believe Psychotherapy is an art and a science. Thinking together, we often find a better understanding of ourselves and our behavior, with a new sense of freedom and flexibility toward life that can be more strategic and less reactive, showing us a way of being and relating to others that is more creative, effective, and ultimately more fulfilling.

Hi I am so glad you are here! I know that looking for a therapist can be an overwhelming task but know that you are already on the right path.

Together we can explore everything you have packed in so tightly. Therapy should be fun, unique, challenging, and safe.

I bring empathy, knowledge and life experience to helping individuals deepen understanding of themselves, face challenging life transitions and endeavors, and build meaningful and successful relationships. I strive to create a safe, affirming, collaborative and compassionate space seeking understanding, healing and growth. I provide counseling through the lens of Neurodiversity, Polyvagal Theory and Internal Family Systems. I have dedicated my career to building communities of diversity, empathy, creativity, and advocacy and especially enjoy working with young adults on the precipice of change.

I've worked in the mental health field for over 9 years in a variety of settings. I have provided CBT and other therapeutic approaches in private practice, residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient settings. I've worked with a lot of people with differing mental health issues and most importantly I've seen a lot succeed and thrive. I am passionate about helping individuals that struggle with mental illness. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health that’s built around a person and not a diagnosis. I believe the impact of living with a mental illness goes far beyond a set of clinical symptoms. I feel that every person is capable of growth and change when they put in the effort.

My name is Dakota Fidram, an associate professional counselor providing affirmative therapy in Atlanta, GA. I have worked with a wide range of diverse clients. Many of my previous clients have sought help for depression, anxiety, family/relationship conflict, and more. Here are some of the areas I am passionate about serving: identity exploration, LGBTQ+, chronic disability/ invisible illness, alternative spirituality, existential questions, polyamory/open relationships. I offer in-person sessions Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays 12pm to 6pm. I offer online virtual sessions Monday through Friday 12pm to 6pm. I have worked with a wide range of diverse clients. My prior experiences in both a community clinic setting as well as a university setting has put me in contact with a variety of client issues. Many of my previous clients have sought help for depression, anxiety, family/relationship conflict, substance use, adjusting to difficult life transitions, exploring and redefining personal identities, and sometimes simply learning more about who they are and who they want to be. Here is a snapshot of my specialty areas: Depression Anxiety/Panic Attacks Identity exploration LGBTQ+ Life transitions Chronic Disability/ Invisible Illness Alternative spirituality Existential questions Before studying and graduating with a master of science degree in clinical mental health counseling, I studied and taught French and Francophone language, literature, and culture. Having studied in Quebec, Canada and having taught English in France reinforced my devotion for expanding perspectives and developing insight. I eventually decided to apply my passion for introspection and self-exploration to help those who need a guiding hand through life's trials and travails. Upon returning to the US, I enrolled in the University of North Georgia's counseling program. I interned in a community counseling setting in North Georgia as well as in a college counseling setting at Kennesaw State University. These experiences continued to inspire me to help those in most need of sensitive care, such as the LGBTQ+ community. Insight and introspection can be lifesavers when we feel as though we’ve lost our way. Learning new ways of handling and adapting to all of life’s changes can be revitalizing. We can grow through obtaining new perspective. I would be excited to be there with you on your path as a co-journeyer and as a provider of objective, researched-based counseling.

10+ years of experience helping clients with mental health and well-being issues, I specialize in managing anxiety and depression, enhancing physical well-being, and achieving self-discovery through growth. My approach includes CBT, REBT, DBT, horticultural therapy and virtual reality therapy, guiding you to overcome obstacles and foster lasting positive change.

Hi there! I’m Margaret Landers and I’m excited to meet you! Getting connected with the right therapist can be a journey when you may already be dealing with a lot. I’m here to hold a healing space for you to process any thoughts, feelings, and sensations you are carrying. Maybe you’re completely overwhelmed, simply going through a change in living situation or are experiencing a recent loss. If it feels hard to carry on your own, I can help. I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Agnes Scott College with a background in crisis intervention, and currently specialize in anxiety, depression, grief, death and dying. Many of my clients see me to process life transitions, LGBTQIA+ issues, and neurodiversity affirmation. I see both individuals and couples, ages 18+. My goal is helping you find confidence, worth and wellness. If you feel that we are a good fit, please contact me! I am happy to hold a consultation or intake session to ensure the connection feels right for you. Counseling is most effective if the client-therapist relationship feels open and comfortable, so I'm here to support you at your pace.

As a therapist, I specialize in working with current and former athletes, students, and high achievers who are navigating challenges with perfectionism, self-criticism, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, and identity. My practice is rooted in supporting girls and women strengthen their confidence and redefine their success. Whether you're navigating life during or after sport, facing academic or career pressure, or trying to rediscover who you are outside of achievement, therapy can be a powerful space to pause, reflect, and heal. Many of my clients are used to excelling. From the outside, they seem driven, focused, and capable. But internally, they may struggle with self-criticism, burnout, imposter syndrome, or a sense that they’re not “enough”, even when they’re exceeding expectations. I use evidence based strategies to help clients in creating a more empowered sense of self! My approach is collaborative, affirming, and non-judgemental. I’m a former collegiate athlete and current coach, so I have first-hand experience seeing and experiencing the impact on young women. I am also currently PhD Candidate researching depression, anxiety, and perfectionism seen in athletes.
