Therapists in Forest Park, GA

I am a professional counselor, licensed in both the states of Florida and Georgia, with over five years of experience working with individuals and families. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I am certified in accelerated resolution therapy (ART) and reconsolidation of traumatic memories (RTM) to treat these types of traumas. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, attachment-based therapy, emotion-focused therapy and rational-emotive counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to admit that we can't always figure everything out on our own and we may need outside support. It is quite the accomplishment to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia with over 20 years of experience working as a counselor, and over 20 years teaching clinical social work to MSW students. I earned my MSW at Florida State University, and my PhD in Social Work at the University of Georgia. I have worked with people who have a wide variety of presenting concerns, including depression, anxiety, coping with life changes, retirement, aging, grief & loss, adoption, and family of origin issues. My counseling style is warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative. I believe that everyone has strengths that can be identified within a respectful, supportive, and compassionate counseling relationship. I believe also that social-emotional skills can be learned and practiced within counseling, and then applied to real-life concerns. My early training was psychodynamic, but over the years I have relied more on the Strengths Perspective and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. Existential Therapy also can be an important part of people’s work, particularly when life meaning is at issue. Our work will be personalized to meet your needs. Making the decision to start counseling is a courageous step and I would be honored to work with you. I wish you the best on your journey! Margaret E Vonk, Member Calls Creek Counseling LLC

I am a licensed mental health therapist in the state of Georgia with over 5 years of experience working as a clinical mental health therapist. I have a Bachelor's degree in Communications and my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, Bi-polar, Schizophrenia, OCD, ODD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My counseling style has always been focused on building a strong therapeutic alliance with my client. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My motto is that we all have bad situations in life (death, abuse, divorce, etc.) that we experience in life that can trigger some negative thoughts, emotional feelings, etc. and it is important to respond to these situations in a healthy manner or we tend to stay in that negative space longer than we ever intended. I have been there. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral therapy, DBT, rational-emotive counseling, and client-centered therapy. My goal is to walk with you through your healing journey as you take steps towards accepting but not allowing challenging events to define who you are and take control of your life. I realize that it is not easy to admit that you need help, but that is the beginning of change!! If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

I am a clinical psychologist, licensed in Georgia, with 21 years of professional work experience. I believe that within a strong, collaborative relationship, problem-focused therapeutic goals can be reached in a timely manner. I see adolescents and young adults with a variety of presenting problems, including: anxiety, depression, stress and coping, inattention and distractibility, motivation and self-esteem, relational difficulties, life changes, and the complicated interaction between managing a chronic medical condition and maintaining psychological well being. I am a proponent of researched based, yet psychodynamically informed, psychotherapy. This means that we may explore the past a bit, in order to discover what is blocking the ability to acquire or integrate newly learned coping skills here and now. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. I am here to provide the tools and the support, and to empower you to reach your goals. *Please note that my current availability to new clients is on Tuesday and Thursday mornings/early afternoons*

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.
