Is it hard to remember the last time you felt truly happy? Do you feel sad and alone or just sick of everything? You may have a mental health condition such as anxiety or depression that is making you feel that way. The City of Cartersville has a plethora of mental health counselors in town who can help.
Cartersville is a small town in Georgia that is home to three separate rivers; the Alabama, Coosa, and Etowah Rivers. The town also has the Altoona Dam that forms the Lake Allatoona where many of the townsfolk like to spend their time off. Getting out on the lake may make you feel better but if you have depression or anxiety you know it won’t last. It is best to get treatment by a Cartersville counselor.

Dr. Michael Becerra
I am a counselor licensed in Georgia, Louisiana, and New Jersey with more than ten years of experience working in the community, school districts, college campuses and vocational rehabilitation agencies. I have worked with clients regarding disability, stress and anxiety, immigration, mens issues, career and life transitions, relationships, motivation and confidence issues. I also spent six years living in Colombia working with intercultural heterosexual and gay couples, as well as US expats and volunteers orientating to life abroad. My counseling style is laid back and interactive. My humanistic theoretical framework for therapy is shaped by Adlerian psychology, which is one of growth and social interest. I also work with solution-focused and developmental approaches to meet your individual needs. Alfred Adler believed that mentally healthy people strive to master their basic life tasks that represent the challenges of work, friendship, love/intimacy. Your motivation to seek therapy demonstrates it. Count on my support and empowerment when you are ready to take that step. I look forward to working with you!

Sergio Hayes
I am a licensed professional counselor with nearly fifteen years of experience in the mental health field. My approach to therapy has remained constant throughout my career: I am a solution-focused therapist. I do not communicate or interact with clients in the traditional manner. Instead, I help clients develop frameworks and systems to address their problems even after they have completed treatment, rather than merely providing superficial support. I am very methodical, strictly adhering to best practices and proven methods that produce tangible results. I am trained in various specialized treatment approaches, the primary ones being EMDR, MRT, and Reality Therapy. I also specialize in couples therapy, primarily employing Behavioral Couple's Therapy and DBT for communication issues. As a Latino and Hispanic professional, I am fortunate to be a native Spanish speaker, which enables me to provide therapy in Spanish without altering the quality of the care. I look forward to working with you and assisting you in any way I can.
