Kenya Williams
Hi, I'm Kenya, a Licensed Professional Counselor, Board Approved Clinical Supervisor practicing in Louisiana since 2011. I am also licensed in Georgia and Texas as an LPC. I graduated from Louisiana Tech University with a Master's in General Counseling & Guidance. My interest in mental health began when I took a dual enrollment psychology course in high school. I later worked as a Human Resources Coordinator at a mental health agency and decided I wanted to help people who experience mental health matters. I currently work with adults on managing Anxiety, Anger Management, Family Issues, ADD, ADHD, ODD, Career, and Academic. I utilize cognitive behavioral and rational emotive therapy in a client centered manner. I am empathetic and provide a safe, welcoming environment for clients to discuss goals and concerns. I believe therapy is all about the client and I am the tool to help you get back to a comfortable level of functioning. I look forward to working with you!

Lisa Haughey
I am a mental health and substance dependency counselor licensed in both Georgia and Arizona with 33+ years of experience. I have worked in the fields of addiction, mental health and with life coaching issues. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, addiction, career choices, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, LBGTQI focuses, couples, and many solution focused issues. I also have worked with those who have histories with the criminal justice system and understand the issues behind reentry and starting life again after release from prison. 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. I also believe that it is important to be honest and help my clients work through their issues; I cannot solve it for you but I will help you gain the tools and the mindset to do so. With this, I am not afraid to be to the point when it is needed. As a counselor, I understand that all have their own paths of faith, spirituality and beliefs. Know I embrace this in both my personal and professional life and am comfortable working with people exploring and practicing their own path of spirituality It takes courage to get help, to ask for change and I applaud you for doing so. I look forward to working with you!

I integrate these approaches into a tailored and individualized approach to work to find what best works for you in therapy. I look forward to supporting you to find what best works for you.

Tyshon Waters
In life we experience mountain highs and valley lows. Some experiences may knock us back a few steps, but then we can shake the dust off and keep moving forward. Other times, situations arise that may knock us off our feet or cause us to be stuck for a period of time not knowing how to proceed from that place. It is during those times we decide to seek assistance to help us navigate through. It can be a humbling experience to admit the need for help and the last thing one needs is someone judging them or making them feel worse after talking with them. Welcome to the judgment-free zone! My name is Tyshon Waters. I am a compassionate, licensed clinician with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I utilize a variety of counseling tools to include person-centered, CBT, and motivational interviewing. Each person I serve is treated as an individual, an expert of their lives and sessions are tailored to their specific needs. I have experience working with individuals who have dealt with trauma, grief, dually diagnosed, depression, Bipolar, and so forth. The ultimate goal is for each person served to gain the necessary tools to walk in wholeness, healed to fulfill their purpose here on Earth.

Dr. Jan Ligon
I am Dr. Jan Ligon, a licensed therapist (LCSW) for 33 years (MSW, PhD, University of Georgia). In addition to working with individuals, couples and families, I have very diverse experiences in mental health and substance abuse services. My approaches to working with people include cognitive behavioral (CBT), motivational (MET), as well as task and solutions-focused methods. While it is possible for people to develop insight into their issues and concerns, my focus is on acknowledging the past while moving forward to the future. Often this can best be accomplished by developing goals that help move ahead more quickly. I view this process as a partnership between the client and the therapist.
