Trauma, anxiety, depression, and grief related to past and present life events, relationship conflicts, worsening of symptoms, or the bad consequences of even the best decision making can injure your heart and diminish your hope. If this is your time to experience relationship challenges, betrayals, stressors, or losses that unexpectedly provide you with swift kicks that knock you face-first into the dirt, therapy will support you and teach you to develop your own plan to dust yourself off. Here you can regain your strength, and experience the empowerment of reconnecting with your goals while you develop new skills for healing and recovery. For over twenty years, I have partnered with children, adults, adolescents, and families on their individual journeys of healing and restoration. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor as well as a Master Addiction Counselor and my approach is defined by your goals, challenges, and the plan that is most supportive of your healing and recovery.

Hi! I am Frances Garcia-Barna (she/her)!

It allows us to just be our genuine, authentic self! I am here to meet you where you are, empower you, and help you discovery what you are seeking from your therapeutic journey. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, parenting problems, and toxic self-image beliefs. I also helped many people who have experienced physical/sexual trauma or emotional abuse. My counseling style is warm using empathetic listening and unconditional positive regard to create an atmosphere where clients feel safe. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I want clients to feel understood rather than being judged.

Hi there! Thanks for stopping in to check out my profile. Therapy might seem intimidating, but it is a great step toward improving yourself and your future. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), licensed in both Georgia and Arkansas, with more than 15 years of experience as a therapist. I am also nationally certified through the National Board of Certified Counselors (NBCC) and am a member of the American Counseling Association (ACA). I am originally from the West Coast but have lived in the South for over 20 years. I have a Master of Education degree in Counselor Education from Augusta State University. I've worked in the outpatient community setting, school settings, and in a group home. I have worked with clients from school age through geriatric populations, both individual and family therapy, with a number of topics including depression, mood disorders, anxiety, stress, interpersonal communication, grief, ADHD, and self-concept, among others. My theoretical orientation is primarily Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but I can draw from a number of orientations depending on what is best suited for you and the situation. My therapy style focuses on working cooperatively with you to help you feel heard, to learn and gain more confidence with coping skills, and to work collaboratively to process and brainstorm new ways of viewing or reacting to the situation at hand, so as to become an advocate for positive change in your own life. We can work together to help you identify your goals and move toward a healthier, happier future, and a healthier, happier you! I hope we can work together soon!

Professional Overview I am an intuitive psychotherapist and hold a master’s degree in Professional Counseling and have been in practice 14 years with clinical experience ranging from private practice settings to college and university counseling centers. My postgraduate education includes doctoral training at Spelman College, Georgia State, and Georgia Tech Universities. Business Professionals & Entrepreneurs I offer specialized counseling services tailored for business professionals and entrepreneurs dedicated to providing heart-centered services to their communities. I recognize that those who lead with compassion and purpose often face unique interpersonal challenges, particularly when it comes to communication styles and relational patterns. My approach supports clients in working through unresolved emotional wounds that may be impacting business partnerships, personal relationships, or both. By identifying and transforming these underlying dynamics, I empower clients to cultivate healthier, more successful, and fulfilling personal and professional connections. Relationship Counseling I view relationships as dynamic partnerships, whether romantic or otherwise, that require intentional care, communication, and collaboration. Just like business partnerships, cultivating emotional safety, a vision of shared goals, and clear compassionate communication is crucial to a successful and healthy relationship dynamic. Treatment Approach I bring a unique blend of Psychodynamic, Attachment-Based, and Emotionally-Focused therapy techniques, along with the Gottman Method, one of the most research-supported and effective approaches to individual therapy. This evidence-based framework helps clients recognize and shift negative interaction patterns, improve communication skills, and strengthen emotional connection. I am particularly passionate about working with individuals of diverse sex, gender, and relationship identities, including but not limited to the LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities. Whether you are an entrepreneur seeking to enhance professional collaboration and leadership, working through recurring conflicts and betrayal, or striving to deepen intimacy and trust-I am committed to helping you create resilient, authentic, and successful relationships in all areas of life.
